What we always must ask ourselves before downloading that new episode of Girls or Parks and Recreation.

Okay, so back in 2003 a guy named Tommy Wiseau wrote, directed and produced a movie called The room. This movie has been called "the Citizen Cane of bad movies" and "one of the worst films ever made", and a lot of people have questioned whether it's to be taken serious, or just looked at as a fantastic mockumentary. Wiseau is very, very serious, though. He first wrote The Room as a play, then adapted the play into a 500-pages book that no one would publish, and so he finally adapted it into a film that no one really understood was a serious attempt to create film history. Moop.

So, we give you: one of the worst scenes from one of the worst films of all time. Enjoy!

PS. when asked how he came up with the $6 million funding for the film, Wiseau has been very secretive, but told Entertainment Weekly that he made some of the money "importing leather jackets from Korea". LOLZ.

Dear Oliver, here's the easiest internet way to keep track of all the different characters and awesome TV people you should know - a blog about people from tv shows on other tv shows! Simple as that.

"Karaoke [...] is a form of interactive entertainment or video game in which amateur singers sing along with recorded music (a music video) using a microphone and public address system. The music is typically a well-known pop song minus the lead vocal. Lyrics are usually displayed on a video screen, along with a moving symbol, changing color, or music video images, to guide the singer. In some countries, a karaoke box is called a KTV." (Thx Wikipedia!)

IT'S SUCH AN AMAZING ICE BREAKER
