  It’s not a show. It’s from a 2003 movie called The Room, and I’ve been posting a meme every day for every single line of dialogue from the movie. It’s commonly seennas “the Citizen Kane of bad movies”. Even though every scene could probably be its own separate lecture on what not to do when making a movie, the film is so fascinatingly multilayered in its terribleness and done so, so earnestly out of a desire to make a serious, dark, generation-defining indie drama that it’s wrapped around to, in my opinion, becoming one of the greatest movies of all time.

  I can’t recommend it enough, but be aware that there are four sex scenes, so it’s not something you necessarily sit down to watch with coworkers. Still, though, it is more fun if you watch it with friends. It’s gained a cult following where it’s still shown in some indie theaters today, and people will crowd the theater to perform rituals like throwing plastic spoons at the screen at certain points.
