* BigNameFan: Rob Corddry, Jonah Hill, KristenBell, Creator/DavidCross, PaulRudd and many others are devotees of the film. Cross eventually showed it to the creators of ''Series/TimAndEricAwesomeShowGreatJob'', which resulted in ''The Room'' being shown on Creator/AdultSwim.
* TheDanza: Mike Holmes as Mike.
* DawsonCasting: Inverted. Lisa has been together with Johnny for seven years, yet was played by a 22-year-old actress. Though her character was probably meant to be older, the contrast of the actress's age with Johnny's Tommy Wiseau being in his late 40s made this all the more noticeable.
* DoingItForTheArt: Tommy Wiseau. The man spent years raising six million dollars to write, produce, direct and advertise his dream project with absolutely no studio support. The amount of time and effort he poured into making it a reality is nothing short of astonishing - perhaps even inspiring.
* FanNickname: Greg Sestero (Mark) is referred to as "Sestosterone".
** Mike is the "Me Underwears" guy.
*** But only because that's more succinct than "Hilarious Blowjob Face" guy.
* MeanCharacterNiceActor: Judging by her twitter, the actress who plays Lisa, Juliette Danielle, is actually very sweet, unlike her bitchy character Lisa. Not to mention she has a great sense of humor about her part in the movie, and has stated that she LOVED {{WebVideo/The Nostalgia Critic}}'s review of it.
* WordOfGod: According to Mr. Wiseau, Lisa's mother makes a full recovery from her breast cancer. He's also helpfully clarified that yes, Denny ''does'' have some sort of mental disorder, a detail that makes a lot of his scenes make more sense.
