My friend and I argued for two hours about whether 'The Room' or 'Troll 2' is the better bad movie

I think 'The Room' is the king because of its weirdly sincere acting and that one line about the chicken. He says 'Troll 2' wins for pure, wild nonsense like the popcorn scene. We went back and forth for so long we missed the start of our actual movie night. Which one do you think deserves the top spot?

Did you at least get to eat the popcorn while you argued about it?

Missing the movie is the real crime here, jakeb81. But come on, "Troll 2" is just random. "The Room" is a whole sad, weird world you can live in.

Ryanm60 has a point about the world building. I read an interview where someone said "The Room" feels like a sad play put on by aliens who only read a book about humans once. "Troll 2" is just silly, but Tommy Wiseau created a whole mood you can't look away from. It's that strange, sincere feeling that makes it last.

Hey, have you tried watching it with someone who's never seen it before? That's where the real magic is, in my experience you get to see their confusion and laughter in real time. Just don't try to explain the plot halfway through, it ruins the sincerity of the whole experience.
