Oh, folks. Have I got a tale for you. As a matter of fact, now that I’m thinking about it, I don’t have a tale for you. Because words cannot accurately render how incredible last night’s screening of The Room was. It was without a doubt the greatest movie-watching experience of my life. Setting aside the beers at Golden State, the beers at Surly Goat, the bottle of wine consumed while waiting in line, or the bottle of Jack Daniels consumed in the movie theater, I haven’t laughed that hard in God knows how long. If you haven’t been to a screening of The Room at the Sunset Laemmle 5 you have not experienced true joy. That’s all I’m gonna say about it. Brilliant. Bliss.
Do yourself a favor. Buy the DVD today and watch it among friends. Drink, enjoy. You’ll thank me later.
RULES for uninitiated noobs: I give birth to a weekly Mix Tape to be deposited on your iPods or Zunes or Kingklangs or whatever the industry is currently pushing on you. Sometimes there will be themes that link all the songs together, other times I’ll just throw songs at a wall (not literally) and see what sticks. No theme tonight. The goal of this endeavor, as always, is to pique your interest in these artists so you’ll support the artists and buy their albums.
