Tommy Wiseau has officially announced a 3D version of The Room

For being a god-awful film, Tommy Wiseau’s The Room isn’t doing half bad for itself. Not only has the film achieved cult status over the years, with showings being consistently sold-out worldwide, but it has even been adapted into a critically-adored biopic (filmopic?) entitled The Disaster Artist starring James Franco.

Honestly, whoever thought that we would hear the words Tommy Wiseau, and Oscar mentioned in the same sentence? While, unfortunately, we won’t be seeing Wiseau stand alongside James Franco at the 90th Academy Awards this year to celebrate a win for The Disaster Artist, Wiseau has just informed us that there is something else to look forward to.

Sure, you’ve seen The Room. However, you haven’t seen The Room… in 3D. That’s right. Put the eye-drops down because you’ve read that correctly. On Twitter, when asked if we would ever see The Room in 4K quality, Wiseau not only confirmed 4K, but another way to watch as well:

5.1
4K

Well, that’s it. We’ve reached the apex of what 3D can do for cinema. Forget silly things like Avatar. Forget Avengers: Infinity War. Once we are able to see Johnny, and Mark play catch… with a 3D football… when that happens, well, then 3D can pretty much retire as a technology. Runner up: a 3D empty water bottle coming right at viewers faces.

Tommy Wiseau Claims 3D Release of The Room is Coming


Tommy Wiseau claims that there’s a 3D version of The Room coming out. At this point, it’s hard to really make this movie’s journey any more bizarre. But perhaps converting such a stunningly bad midnight cinema classic into a 3D format could achieve that. In light of the success of James Franco’s The Disaster Artist, The Room’s profile has never been higher than it is now.

Still, it’s not like The Room became a visual spectacle overnight. In fact, it’s still spectacularly terrible. But much like it became one of the most improbably re-watchable movies in recent memory, perhaps The Room 3D would be even more fun to watch. Although it’s hard to totally trust everything that Wiseau says, the mastermind behind The Room says his movie is getting its own 3D release.

Wiseau revealed his possible new plans for The Room when he responded to a Twitter follower on Friday who asked him if he’d release the film in superior 4K quality. Wiseau says that not only will The Room be released in 4K, it’ll also have 5.1 surround sound and be available in a 3D format. Wiseau rarely breaks any kind of hard news about The Room or any other projects, so this tweet would be a departure from the norm.

Apparently he bought a 3D rig to shoot the movie with. It holds two cameras and he bought two high end, but different, cameras to put on the rig so its always been adaptable to 3D. I don't think this was on purpose though, seemed like he was just spending money just to spend money and make the production seem professional.

I think the chances of them being 3D compatible are very slim. Wasn't one a film camera and one a digital camera? Aspect ratio, lighting, depth of field, etc. have very slim odds of lining up, imo, considering what a shitshow the shoot was.
 
I wonder if anyone has ever said to him "quit being a wiseau guy"
 
Does a re-release make it eligible for Oscars?

I doubt he's getting an Oscar invite with the #metoo stuff going on. He filmed that sex scene with Lisa literally her first day on the set. He said "Fuck building chemistry, I got to bang that bellybutton".
 
He needs a prequel, sequel and a prequel's prequel.

You're my favorite customer.
 
Surprised Rocky Horror hasn't done this. Went to four midnight showings for shits and giggles (and because I knew one of the stage actors for those shows) and it's dumb as fuck but their fanbase is rabid. They would eat it up.

Lisa had some sweet tits though. Those in 3D would print money.
