haha, I've actually seen this whole movie.

On April Fool's Day this year, Adult Swim unexpectedly played the ENTIRE movie in place of their normal lineup once midnight hit. xD In fact, I could be mistaken, but they may have even looped it twice.

From Wikipedia:

The Room was aired in its entirety on Cartoon Network's Adult Swim programming block as its annual April Fool's Day joke on April 1, 2009 at midnight, followed by the "Tommy" episode of Awesome Show; other programming ran as scheduled. As usual for its April Fools Joke, Adult Swim gave TV Guide the wrong information. Adult Swim rated The Room TV-14-DLSV, and scenes not appropriate for basic cable were edited out or partially or entirely covered with black boxes. At random times, the phrase "Do not duplicate this copyrighted material" appeared at the bottom of the screen, and the bumps, which appear before and after the commercial breaks, either advertised the R-rated DVD or asked "What are you fools watching?" The day following the broadcast, the movie placed as high as #28 on the Amazon.com DVD best-seller list, as well as moving to #1 among independent films on the site.

I believe this movie, "The Room" is voted the best worst movie worldwide. Everyone went to see it to make fun of it how bad it was

This is my favorite movie.

The best parts are towards the end. The scene where a random character who has never been introduced in any way and is never named goes on a long tirade about how Lisa is RIPPING THEIR GROUP OF FRIENDS APART (thanks for the information random guy!).

At one point Lisa also says she is pregnant - we find out pretty quickly that it was just a clever lie she told Johnny to continue manipulating him. Then several scenes later they argue about who the father of the baby is in earnest.

Out of nowhere, suddenly in one scene the male characters are all wearing tuxedos, and they go to play "football" (they throw a ball back and forth in an ally) with them on. One character hurts himself, then the scene ends and the reason they were wearing them is never explained.

When Mark finds out Lisa planned a surprise party for his birthday, his reaction is "you invited all my friends! Good thinking!" Truly innovative dialogue from an engaging and complicated character.

In one of the opening scenes it is revealed that Lisa's mother has cancer ("I got the results back. I definitely have breast cancer"). She responds with "don't worry about it" and continues whining about her life. Her mother's cancer is never mentioned again in any way through the movie. Lisa's problems are apparently much more important.

Early on we are also introduced to two characters who have a few lines through the movie. Before the viewer learns who they are, they walk into (presumably) Lisa and Mark's apartment, out of nowhere, and start having sex on their couch. Lisa and Mark are no where to be seen, so it is up to us to figure out why they got in and who these two characters even are in the beginning.
