Oh hi, Mark!
Oh hi, Chris!
lol before i watched this, i wanted to see how many people where going to say this in the comment section.
Imagine Tommy Wiseau in wrestling.
"Oh, hi..... MARKS!"
Great interview.
@@Adyman182 and after they complain or share their opinion, he'd say "What a story, Marks!" and laugh.
This is unrelated but holy shit this guy has hardly aged at all since the Room 20 years ago!!
Yeah, I'm surprised about the lack of comments about this !
yeah wait wtf hahahahah how have i never considered this? he genuinely looks exactly the same
Greg is such a good sport and a surprisingly compassionate person towards Tommy and many, which is rare in the industry. I honestly feel bad for Tommy and do hope that he always improves. Conveying a story believably, regardless if its physical, vocal, or both, can be incredibly difficult and even some good performers have been guilty of bad performances, even if their fans heatedly and often immaturely debate over it. I hope Greg continues to find projects that he enjoys and always improves in it. God bless!
If he had that much money and was serious about his artistic vision. He should have hired some screenwriters as consultants. And he should have hired an actor to play him.
Instead he argued against any changes to his script that he was convinced was "genius." And he played himself and wrote himself gratuitous, disgusting love scenes. He's a slime ball.
There’s no doubt that Greg and Tommy are the best pair to ever make a movie so bad that it’s good. I’m glad they made the movie and still doing films to this day.
This has gotta be one of my favorite interviews you’ve done. The Room has a really special place in my heart, and Greg has one of the most interesting stories in all of entertainment.
Great to still see Mark with a football haha. Wow 20 yrs already. Good times.
🏈
Greg is such an interesting dude, not just bc of the room lore, but his own acting journey.
Greg and Tommy are great dudes. Am between 20-30 times viewed on "The Room". Saw it live in London with both of them, what a story!
This is cool. Greg seems like a nice guy and he looks he’s doing really well. Good vibes
I am friends with the actor who played Denny. Took improv classes from his brother.
Oh hi, Brian
@@ChrisVanVliet I just like to watch you guys.
@@nobsbrress WHERE'S MY MONEY DENNY?
@@zombiewarrior88 WHAT KIND OF MONEY?!
YOU ARE NOT MY FUCKING MOTHER!!!!
It's nice to see you branch out from wrestling interviews. I hope you do more of it.
Thanks man! Many more to come!
he actually started from interviewing movie celebrities. then gone into wrestling stuff, and now seems like he is again back in the roots
What an interview, Mark.
Of more interviewers loved each other the world would be a better place
You can say that again
16:53 'What do you girls do beside drink?' is one of the greatest negs I have ever heard. 😀
yay! i love greg and tommy and the whole world of the room! i found out about it about a year before the disaster artist came out and in the meantime i got all friends into it!
Oh hi Mark !!
*Oh hi, CVV!*
Wasn't expecting to see anything related to The Room on your channel, dude. Nice surprise. Interesting interview
I love the Greg is holding onto the football while giving the interview
I have seen it over 30 times....love it. Just watched the Celebration last night at the theater. The whole crowd of all ages and all walks of life were united in a wonderful hilarious human experience.
Oh hi Jamare
@@ChrisVanVliet Oh, hi Chris
I have listened to the audiobook 6 X and will listen again. The most honest memoir ever
Who would have ever thought it possible that a feature length film could be *both* complete garbage and an absolutely brilliant masterpiece at the same time? It really should have won multiple Oscars, because it achieved something that shouldn't even be possible. Who else but Tommy Wiseau could have possibly pulled that off? It's quite possibly the weirdest, most absurd work of art of all time.
I literally have a blu ray of this movie at home signed by Greg Sestero himself at a film event I went to this year🤣
The Room will be talked about for the rest of eternity. Most filmmakers can't make that claim.
He needs too reach out too Macaulay Caukin, and make that movie now. Make it a dark comedy action film.
Heard this podcast and now the video!! Woo hoo
I've watched the room 5 times in 2 days. Best movie I've ever seen in my life
What a great interview! Greg is such an interesting person. Fascinating story. I want to watch The Disaster Artist now.
What a wonderful interview. Thank you.
Haha what a story Mark!
Ill be seeking the book. Sounds like an amazing and strange time
Forbidden sky sounds amazıng as a title
Oh hi Chris! I love that interview ❤️
I have actually seen him in person. He was traveling with his film "Best F(r)iends".
The Room is a great film. I love every minute of it and this was a great interview.
Somebody chickeeeeeen. lol
Cheep cheep cheep cheep cheep!
Room 2 please
So far we have Elden Ring!
The Room 2 won't happen. Johnny is dead. But The Room -1 (prequel) would be amazing.
Greg's tommy impression is really good.
The Room is better than anything Hollyweird is making today.
This is awesome
If you haven't seen Buck Breaking it's the modern day version of The Room as far as accidental comedy.
I was going to post some stupid comment, but then I decided to just leave it in my pocket.
I’m confused why Greg’s mom said suddenly, no sex? 10:30
The book details how Tommy was taking Greg out, wining and dining him. Gregs mother thought Tommy was an older gay man who was preying on her son. So when Tommy arrived to take Greg to the apartment, the mother actually came out to meet him and ask him to 'please not to have sex with her son'. I urge you to read the book. The movie they made is not a patch on it
Disaster artist(book) is a masterpiece
Oh, Hi Chris
The world needs a UFO movie starring Tommy and Greg!
Greg seems like a good dude
it just like wrestlinf world , without the crowd theres no the rocka and stone cold , just the room
Wrestlinf? The rocka? Wtf?
Chris's GUNS. Where did he get them....
Wal-Mart
Roid mart, weights section.
He hit her, Mark! 😮
I think Greg is cool. He saw this weird, unusual character and saw the interesting side of him. I've met people like tommy. Other peopel think they are just weird or annoying. I always make sure to appreciate peoples quirks. It makes life interesting.
Lisa your tearing me apart
Oh hi Mark
What a video,Mark
“Ha ha ha what a shtory mark” “woooow u look so sexy lisa” “enything fo my princeeess ha ha ha” are my favorite room quotes to take the stress off
Oh hai mark
Love the football lol
Haha, nice interview Chris, anyway how's your sex life?
Oh hi... MARK?!
It would be even better if Chris wore pants.
10:20 well we all do
Pleasantly unexpected~
What a story, Mark!
What's new with you?
Wow, the Disaster Artist movie took a lot of liberties.
The Botox is real.
What makes you say that lmaoo

What’s this train wreck of a movie you guys are referencing? An who the hell is Tommy?
It's The Room by Tommy Wiseau. Gather some friends and watch it asap (it's on RUclips).
@@wopaah where's it again can't find it please help!
It’s called the room, and when I tell you that it is an experience… I am not lying. Definitely watch it.
I gotta say CVV, I didn't see this coming. I don't use this phrase often but I'll say it now: this is a real treat.
This video is like an Easter Egg.
Good call!
Glad you enjoyed it!
I have so much respect for Greg. He is so great at answering questions and giving us the audience so much insight. What a wonderful interview.
Oh hi Deedee
@@ChrisVanVliet you are a fantastic interviewer- great questions and allowed Greg to flow and give us what we wanted. Great job!!
It was not a good interview actually. The interviewer asked the same old questions, which Greg answered a million times before. The interviewer should've asked him questions about his life immediately after making the Room and get to know him a better. What did Greg do with the money Tommy gave him? Did Greg apply for more auditions. It seems a bit of a mystery what he did immediately after. He only resurfaced after The Room got huge.
Such an interesting interview. There aren't too many screenings in Belgium (where I live), but a student group once made a Dutch theatre version of The Room and it was amazing. One aspect of that version: there wasn't one actor playing Johnny, but all actors had their own role and also took turns putting on a black wig and doing a weird accent. That in itself is comedy, but each actor took both their roles seriously, making it land in the perfect spot between love and satire where The Room shines.
Greg has either been interviewed too many times or he is just the best person to interview cause his answers are just excelent
Greg is such a cool guy
I really wish Greg got more roles .. he is so charming, I could listen to him talk for hours❤
52:00 this whole part right here, speaks to me, I can relate to it 100%
It seems to me like you're the expert, Mark!
I keep forgetting Chris also does movie interviews and not just wrestling
It’s an awful movie to watch on your own but a hilarious movie to watch with an audience. But let’s be real, it’s bad
Awesome interview, just went for a live screening with Greg was such a great show with his comments
You're tearing me apart Lisa!
I just can't take my eyes off of you 😍
Great talk.
Greg should release the outtakes!
Please don't do the Tommy Wiseau accent or impression. It doesn't work. Plus, you've asked him questions that have been asked a million times.
I’m mostly excited to see someone other than my grandma with the last name Van Vliet!
Try the musician Captain Beefheart!
28:00: This would've been a better script than what actually happened, while there is much I like about Lost in New York, a second kid with Kevin would've been nice for a bounce off...and that's a far more logical place for The Wet Bandits to end up.
Awesome interview! Keep it up!!!
Sorry... the room >>>>> disaster artist 😂
I love that Greg was willing to hold that football for the full hour.
It seems to me you're an expert, Mark.
Beat friends was actually great
Love the book
Mark
Man, Greg is such a great interview. He came to my town a few years back and gave my mother the time of day. I will always respect him for that. I especially love how the interview ended. I really hope you get that tour!
It sounds like he fucked your mom?
i am glad the room exists. their job is done
