Wow, an entire movie where nothing really happens despite the fact that it look like things are happening.  Haven't seen that since Manos: The Hands of the Fate.

We live in quite an interesting age. You can tell someone's sexual orientation and level of education from just their interests.

Words cannot describe how awful the acting is. It's sad to think that the director thought that this mess would be considered a classic.

Hmmm... I just notice that.  I checked the forums on the site, but none of the higher ups or admins commented about this.  Also, someone else's review on The Room was taken done as well.  Coincidence?  I think not!

Yeah, it's kind of annoying as I was somewhat curious to see the NCs thoughts on the film, which has become legendary in just a few short years for its awfulness.  I saw it on the NC site, then went to watch it a few hours later and it was gone.

On the IMDB someone said blip.tv pulled it (do they host the NC?  I dunno).  Apparently, some reviews on youtube also got pulled.  I'm betting this is Tommy Wiseau's doing.  It's also one of those things that the NC would probably have a chance of fighting and winning under fair use, but it's just not worth the effort, so don't expect to see it again.
