Movie Scenes That Were Completely Ruined By Extras

The argument that there isn’t a whole lot to ruin in this cult «disasterpiece» is certainly fair, but that doesn’t stop the extras in Tommy Wiseau’s «The Room» from doing the absolute most to stand out for all the wrong reasons. In this film — written by, directed by, and starring Wiseau — much of the action takes place in the home of Johnny (Wiseau) and his future wife Lisa (Juliette Danielle). Unbeknownst to Johnny, his betrothed is sleeping with his best friend, Mark (Greg Sestero). Plus, Lisa’s mom (Carolyn Minnott) has breast cancer, and their neighbor Denny (Philip Haldiman) is indebted to — and possibly buying drugs from — a notorious local gangster … although none of that really matters by the end.

Resisting the temptation to include the «doggy» from the florist’s – because if anything, he enhances the scene — it is in a coffee shop that we find the distracting extra. When you manage to overlook the banalities of this scene, the conversation between Johnny and Mark has the potential to be very revealing given the infidelity happening behind closed doors.

When Johnny leaves, Mark looks pensive, clearly considering the damage he is knowingly doing to their friendship by sleeping with Lisa. Unfortunately, however, this reflective moment is ruined by the extra sat behind Mark who turns around to stare straight down the camera lens while he chows down on his food.
