So yeah, Pinky has been shooting stuff with the gorgeous hunk from The Room and he brought dude over the other day. First I said, “Oh, hi Mark,” then I pulled out the same laundry list of questions we all have. “Did you fuck her?” is the first one that comes to mind. “Fuck no” he replied. Though he did admit she was down (doye). I learned Tommy is from Poland. They met in acting class in San Francisco. They really did run Bay-to-Breakers together and they really did have chicken together the way it is in the movie.
During our discussion something became abundantly clear: Where Greg sees his relationship with Tommy as a mildly amusing way to kill time with an Eastern European eccentric, Tommy sees it as the American Dream come true. Think Michael Scott and the BJ Novak character, Ryan from The Office. Tommy thinks Greg is an eagle with wings made out of American flags and he wants to be his friend so bad, he made a movie with him — where they play best friends.
This revelation got kicked into overdrive after I filmed this. I asked Greg to return my copy of The Room to our local video store and then I put it up on YouTube. Within an hour, Greg’s phone was vibrating like a Hitachi Magic Wand with calls from Tommy and I had my account suspended. Apparently Tommy saw the piss-take as a “violation of copyright” and put in a formal complaint or whatever you call it. I countered the complaint and finally got the video released from Internet custody yesterday.
Tommy can take all the laughing and mockery the Internet can dish out when it comes to The Room but when Ryan implies Michael Scott isn’t his best friend, the office closes down. I don’t even think Tommy gives a shit about The Room. I think the whole movie was an excuse to solidify a bromance.

Sorry but if you’re not already intimately familiar with every aspect of The Room, you shouldn’t be on this site.

I was hoping for more. I love The Room, but this post was dribble.

why’d you take out the “vibrating like a Hitachi magic wand” line? possibly the best part of the article.

This story is complete jargon to non-The Room junkies but heaven on wheels to those of us who need our fix. I can’t believe we finally learn he’s from Poland. I knew it!
