First thing I thought of when I read that after watching the trailer was that this is someone who was inspired by Jordan Peele and thought they could jump straight from comedy to horror also without realizing that it takes more talent than it does to write Workaholics.

edit: I hope there's a point where he runs out of songs he knows 100% and has to make up lyrics, which causes his popularity to slip.

I'm getting Invention of Lying or (coincidentally) Liar Liar vibes from this where the premise is amazing but the movie will push that aside for a by-the-numbers romcom. Also how much does this movie cost? Beatles licensing can't be cheap.

That was way more like an MCU trailer than I expected, especially the opening scene with the stormy sea.

It helps costs when it's not the original recordings or performers singing the song but yeah, that's a movie with possibly the largest music budget in history.

IIRC Sony owns the rights but McCartney is suing to get ownership back of the earlier songs, not sure how that's going.

None of them are the good kind. The Room is basically the death of cult cinema in commodity form. It's only funny when in a theater with 150 other strangers, which makes it more audience submitted performance art.

Best F(r)iends is unbearably dull.

I've watched The Room countless times over the past decade or so, both in theaters and at home, and I've had fun literally every single time I've watched it v:shobon:v

That's cool. Yeah, I'm posting from a position of overexposure because my theater is one of the primary Wiseau stops and we screen it monthly/bi-monthly. That movie is like a family member, for better or worse.

The Room was funny by accident. Wiseau earnestly tried to make a good movie and only came out later saying it's a joke.

All these loving dumb "WE MADE IT poo poo ON PURPOSE" are trash and should be ignored.

No. It's only funny the first time you watch it by yourself back in mid-late 2000s when it's still just a blip of a curio you barely know anything about.
I'm happy for my initial experience :)

What's weird is that the Fincher connection is kinda buried. They don't mention it in the trailer at all.
