If you’ve never seen the modern classic ‘The Room’, you’re probably a sane or uniformed individual who doesn’t seek out terrible films just so he can have the experience equivalent to being slapped with cinema faux-brilliance for far too long.
But if you have, you’re probably a giant fan of it — because it’s the best worst movie ever made, right up there with Troll 2 and anything that wound up being on Mystery Science Theater 3000. It’s this generation’s Rocky Horror, with midnight screenings filled with thrown spoons, quote-alongs, and the worst dialogue this side of Californication. In an interview with Entertainment Weekly, Sandy Schklair is claiming that he essentially did all the work for Tommy Wiseau the notoriously eccentric man who managed to raise money to deliver lines like the one at the top. Because Wiseau was far too wrapped up in his performance to direct. Again, look at the line delivery at the top. The interview hasn’t been released yet, but the most shocking part about it?
Someone wants to take credit for the mess that is ‘The Room’. It’s like somebody wanting to stamp their name all over the Hindenburg.
Will Wiseau be forced to give a dramatic performance in court? Only time will tell.

First the guy quit and did not finish the project. Second how you can give anyone credit after 10 years. What this guy do in past 10 year? It's very stupid, and third without Tommy Wiseau you just don't have The Room. Check the Room DVD and you can see very clearly that only Tommy Wiseau directed The Room. Good work Tommy Wiseau!
