The Room : Why do black people hate this movie so much?

I swear I've never heard a single black person say this is a good quality movie. Why is this?

And I'm not being racist ..my favourite actor is Sidney Poitier

1 mark deducted for not being Curse of Fenric. Insert 'The' into previous if you are Ant-Mac

Maybe they're racists?

Asians too! Don't get me wrong. I like Jackie Chan.

The same reason EVERYONE hates this movie: because it sucks.

This was just a sorry movie. The acting was terrible. It was like all of the actors were actually just reading from the script, and were not very good readers. I got through 25 minutes of this movie, and could not take anymore.

I'm black. I loved this movie! It's not So Bad, It's Good, it's So Bad, It's Amazing.

(Beaubelle gently tugging OP's sleeve) It's not just black people--oh, hai, Mark!

Well, Tommy Wiseau has a dressed the fact that Mark was originally going to be played by a black actor. I think the fact that that actor left the project was likely such an enormous story in entertainment news at the time probably has something to do with it. It was such a coveted role, and every actor in Hollywood wanted it, so when a black actor was replaced with mega star Greg Sestero, people took offense.

It just didn't seem fair to people that Tommy Wiseau nearly opted for diversity, but instead showed himself to be part of the typical Hollywood elite that he is.

Hahaha!

I believe they were not happy with the first actor and Sestero (line producer) eventually just took the role. I don't believe the first guy was black.

Actually he was. Wiseau said so, and there's an early rehearsal tape somewhere on youtube with the guy.

Also, everything else I said is totally true.

Well, it's not remotely a good quality movie... but it is hilarious and as entertaining as it gets.

Say, I heard that the original Mark was played by a Black actor as well. Then Wiseau changed his mind about casting and Sestero got the role. Very racist on Wiseau's part. I lost all respect for him as a director at that point. That's why I, as a proud Black person, boycott this movie.

Yeah I wouldn't watch this if I were black. It just wouldn't make sense, this movie is only going to reach your typical young white man on a skateboard with a ginger Afro, carrying two watermelons whilst listening to Adam Sandlers audio commentary for 50 First Dates on repeat, no one else.
