Hi reddit, it's Greg Sestero (Mark from "The Room") again. AMA: The Sequel.

Oh Hi Mark!

Would you ever plan on working with Tommy again? And I so, what parameters would you place on working with him to avoid any of the disasters described in the book?

If someone else was in charge of scheduling

Thanks! Again, the book was everything I dreamed it would be. Will you be appearing in NYC any time soon?

Albany next Saturday

Can I watch you guys?

Sure why not

Is it true "The Room" was funded by nazi gold?

I'm pretty sure

Oh hi Mark, I was at a screening in New York about a year ago, and during the q&a with Tommy he randomly blurted out "Oh yeah, Denny is retarded". Now, did he mean that Denny in the movie is supposed to be retarded, or did he mean that Phillip is retarded?

I think that's his go to line to get a reaction from the audience

He certainly has a way with words

The Shakespeare of our time.

To be or not to be

What does Tommy think of the book? (It was amazing by the way!)

He refers to it as the red bible

That raises more questions than answers...

He said he's read it 12x...and he likes it 50%

Why did you shave halfway through The Room?

So I could show off my baby face. Or because Tommy wanted me to show off my baby face. Because Tommy thought I looked more American that way.

Two questions:

What is the weirdest thing Tommy has ever said around you?

What made you do another AMA so soon after your first?

Thanks!

Do you like to eat oranges in bed?

Questions about the book & its adaptation and the first one was crazy fun

Well do you like to eat oranges in bed???

Never tried it

What kind of drugs was Denny supposedly taking? Personally, I can't see him taking anything stronger than cough syrup.

Edit: Hey thanks for the gold, mysterious kind sir!

Haha cough syrup is a good guess

I think he was doing the blue. Chris R was Tuco before Tuco

do you hang out with tommy? is he an alien?

Been trying to figure out that for 15 years.

Tommy is actually an angel come to earth. That is why he wears the long coat to hide his wings, and why he sounds so awkward when he talks. He is not used to human interaction.

If everybody loved each other the world would be a better place to live

I recently ran into Tommy at Whole Foods. His cart was full of almost nothing but energy drinks. Can you comment on this?

Sounds about right

Is "The Disaster Artist" the movie going to be a documentary or a more serious movie ?

Serious movie

What was the creepiest thing Tommy did while on set?

Mooning the entire cast/crew for 15 takes while walking to the fake bathroom in his glamour shot

Was he at least considerate about covering his frontside up during filming?

Used a stocking sock

Do you think that "The Room" ruined your career or that it made your career ?

I think it gave me an opportunity.

Are you gonna be running bay to breakers this year?

In sandals

Greg, if I were to make a pizza and call it "The Sestero", what would that pizza have on it?

-Tom in Seattle (Go Seahawks!!!)

EVERYTHING

Do you have any more information than we do about the Franco movie? Is it true James Franco wants to play Tommy with Dave Franco playing you?

Don't have any further info but I think that would be great!

The only person I see playing Tommy is Christopher Walken.

That's a good choice. Javier Bardem is great too.

I had a weird thought of Leonardo DiCaprio being cast and THAT being what wins him an Oscar.

That would be perfect

Can James Franco convincingly hump a red dress though

He'd kill it

Who have you been most surprised to discover is a fan of The Room?

the late Lou Reed or Bill Simmons

Have you seen the Rifftrax treatment of The Room?

Yeah it was hilarious

Was the line "what planet are you on?" In the script or did you come up with that spontaneously? because if I worked together with tommy I would probably think something like that too. Also great book I'm currently reading it, really funny and interesting.

It was in the script

Have you ever had a look at/played The Room Tribute game put out a Newgrounds a few years back? Funny point and click game that introduced me to The Room!

EDIT spelling

It's a terrific game!

Greg, will you marry me?

Just show up in a tuxedo with a football

Are you and the 5 Second Films guys any closer to getting the 'behind the scenes' footage and making it into a full documentary? The little we saw at the Disaster Artist tour was gripping.

Hopefully soon. A lot of great footage.

Hey, whatever happened to the Me Underwears guy?

Pushing him into the trashcan was the knockout blow

Have you ever played the Drinking game for The Room? I did once with 8.9 % beer. Never again. Probably one of the worst hangovers I've ever had. 1 sip every time Lisa's nipples come on screen is brutal.

I haven't but it sounds pretty brutal.

What did Tommy think about the book (which was awesome, btw)? Did he read it? What did he say?

He read it 12 times. Red bible is what he calls it.

Hi Greg, did you realize at the time of the filming that the movie was a bit ridiculous, or did it seem like a normal movie to you? I think playing catch in tuxedos might have been a bit of a red flag, no?

It was crazy from beg to end. Starting with the audition process in which Tommy greeted Chris R castings by jumping them when they walked through the door.

What was the deal with the cheesecake in the coffeeshop scene anyway? And how does Tommy feel about the book?

I don't know, I think he just thinks that everyone orders cheesecake? It's like a fancy type of dessert.

Hey Greg, two questions: What was it like working with Doug Walker, and how often do people come up to you on the street and ask how your sex life is?

DW is hilarious and I had a blast working with him

Get a lot of sex life questions and its all good

[deleted]

I really enjoyed working on TDA. Would love to do another one at some point.

Hey Greg! Amazing book, dude! Are you still as close to Tommy Wiseau now as you were when you used to hang out like in the book? Also, what do you think happened to Tommy during that extremely long period of time when he disappeared and returned buff, depressed, and with the "The Room" script in hand? Would you consider parts of your novel to be like a bromance?

I think Tommy and I will always have a kinship with all the crazy experiences endured. I think he went through a personal calamity of sorts--and came out different and inspired to make something happen. There's a little bromance--odd one at that.

Hey Greg! It's the pink and purple haired girl/one of the girls who was drawing at the coffee shop! I just wanted to pop in and say hello and thanks again for coming by, it was really awesome meeting you and being able to ask you some questions! I'll let you know when I finish the book, and sorry if my question is already answered in it and I just haven't gotten there yet!

I was wondering if the woman in the flower shop scene actually worked at that shop (assuming it was real) and if the dog was written in and intended or just something Tommy improvised?

Again, Thank you!

Yeah she and her partner (and the dog) all worked there. Tommy just showed up and took over the place

Apart from the Room, what is your favourite so bad it's good movie?

Johnny Suede

Hi Greg, I have three questions:

1. Can you share with us any more lines from the original script, the one that hadn't been revised by someone with a better grasp of English than Tommy? Those were some of my favourite moments in your book.

2. What is the dynamic like between you and Tommy these days? I'm just curious whether or not the years of touring have made you sick of each other.

3. I met you just last week in Edinburgh, thanks for being such a stellar guy and talking with us for so long! What the hell was the flavour of the chocolate bar you were eating? It tasted bizarre.

So many great lines! I think "Old Man Donkey lets me know today" & "When he finishes.." with the dress are my fav. The entire script is really gold

It's always entertaining going on tour. I luckily have a lot of patience.

It was really bizarre. I was trying to stay awake and I learned chocolate and lime don't mix

Oh hai Greg, we met recently at the Prince Charles Cinema and you appeared to be in a bad mood. My friends and i thought that you may have wished that you could be taken more seriously as an actor, so my question is: Do you regret being in the Room, in terms of do you think you could have became more as an actor had it not been for the Room?

Thanks for your time in this AMA!

It was fun! Just jetlagged and working on the latter part of your question.

Greg, is Tommy going to ever make that vampire movie?

I really hope so

Greg, what was it like being Miranda Lamberts husband in that one music video?

It was a fun time. Miranda was incredibly nice and cool to work with.

Greg I'm seeing you today at Sunray In Jacksonville. What would you like me to bring to you?

Hot chocolate

Hey! I saw you at geeksboro a couple nights ago. Thanks for coming! Here's a photo of you and me together http://i.imgur.com/QKEPC1P.jpg PS it's my phone wall paper now

Thanks for coming out. Greensboro is a great city

How did you end up doing the Nostalgia Critic cameo?

Doug said he had a little something for me

What do you think about movies on the movie making process? Are they a cop-out in terms of creativity? Or do they inspire more creativity?

I think my two fav movies/movies are Sunset Blvd & Ed Wood because they're more character driven stories. I feel the same about the DA
