I haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaate this movie.  just don't understand how you can all love it so much. I first saw it on Adult Swim when instead of my normal saturday night anime, they played this. Over, and over, and over again. Drove m crazy. But I kept it on thinking they would play my shows, but they did not.


Why do you hate this movie? Please explain.
I'm from Alaska. About Fifty miles south of Ankorage there's a little fishing town, maybe you've heard of it, it's called fuck your momma.

All you have to remember when you run across a flaw in the movie (not that there are many...), is 'dont worry about it'.

(Keep in mind I haven't seen it in forever so I"m doing the best with what I can) The characters are so unlikable to me. And most of the writing is bad, like they wrote a world where everyone openly has some sort of disorder, and they all think nothing of it (with Tommy's character I think I heard that he sort of does have one? But it's not really explained in the movie and so he just comes off as this 100% socially accepted guy that everyone loves, regardless of his what I think come off as obvious issues.) It also feels like the movie drags on for a long time. I'm sure that's what they might have been going for, with a movie entitled The Room, it's not too hard to guess they might being trying to go for a claustrophobic(I think that's the term I'm looking for) type feeling. Reminds me a lot of this story I read in english about this yellow room. Something to do with the girl going insane from being in it for a long time. But it isn't too relevant. But I just hate the feeling it gives off. I also feel like the plot changed a lot fast. Well I mean like the couple were perfectly fine and out of no where Lisa just does a 180 and goes batshit insane, causing Tommy to go batshit insane.

I guess I just can't seem to appreciate it as a bad movie as much as you guys can, I am unable to humor it, ultimately learning to love it for what it is. I just had a way different experience watching that movie.

Watch it with the RiffTrax, some liquor and a few friends.  You will gain new appreciation for it.

Seconded. Make it into a drinking game. Don't over think this movie.

To be honest, I hate the film. On the other hand, I love making fun of the film, so it grows on you like a mold or perhaps infects you like a militarized prion that slowly destroys your brain.

To be honest, I don't think I could ever hate or love this movie.  After 3 or 4 viewings, I still can't seem to wrap my mind around it or make sense (I was literally speechless following the first viewing).  That said, I absolutely love some of the dialogue and find it amusing that pretty much every line is quotable...
