The man responsible for the worst movie ever made (The Room) sets his sights on web TV with a new Machina.com show called The Tommy Wi-Show. In the first episode Tommy, or TW as his alien friends call him, takes on Mortal Kombat. Is the show bad? Good? So bad it's good? So bad it’s bad? I don't know - he sounds like a drunken German weightlifter... Watch the episode to your left.
Thanks to Kyle Orland for the tip.. I think.
Zen: On a funny side note...both of my boys have already voted NOT to get the Xbox One as soon as they found out Minecraft won't transfer lol. Some people have priorities damnit! ;)05/21/2013 - 9:27pm

Andrew Eisen: Well, I was right. Both Sony and Microsoft's consoles will be out by the year's end and both will be significantly more powerful than the current gen.05/21/2013 - 5:06pm

E. Zachary Knight: But what if I want to only watch over the air tv? I don't subscribe to pay tv. I never will. If that is a requirement, then MS wasted 45 minutes telling me how great TV will be.05/21/2013 - 2:08pm

Re: The Tommy Wi-Show Ep. 1: Mortal Kombat
It's funny as hell, but I've always had a weirder sense of humor. That alien with those geeky teeth and "TW" being nominated as the greatest game reviewer of all times is amusing for sure. I thought machinima was a serious channel, I've always watched their videos about dll file extensions with interest, beside the games' reviews, of course.

Who is this idiot and why is he in the news?
Re: The Tommy Wi-Show Ep. 1: Mortal Kombat
Tommy Wiseau is a would be filmmaker who conjured up $6million dollars and blew it on his own self financed movie, The Room which is easily the worst film of all time and as others have put it "The Citizen Kane of bad movies". Basically if you gave a group of intoxicated chipmunks some paper and a 35mm film camera and asked them to make the worst movie they possibly could, while they were high on crack, the result would be no where near as terrible as The Room. But dont let that discourage you from watching it, its funny as hell. Even funnier than Monty Python and the Holy Grail, and Airplane.

Everything you need to know about this guy, you can find out in the Nostalgia Critic's review of The Room.
