The Disaster Artist: 10 Biggest Book Omissions

10. Greg And Tommy Go To The Palm

The very first chapter of Greg Sestero's book tells the story of when he and Tommy Wiseau went to Hollywood's famous Palm restaurant together one week before production of The Room began.

It's a real shame that this was excluded from the film, as this entire scene is quintessential Tommy Wiseau, and did a fantastic job at setting the tone for the entire book.

Sestero entered the restaurant with Wiseau, who was dressed so incredibly weirdly that everyone in sight was staring. Wiseau then gave several fake names to the hostess until he finally landed on the name of someone who had a reservation, took their table, then demanded a booth once they got to the table.

Wiseau then proceeded to order a glass of hot water, scare off two women who had taken an interest in Sestero, then, when it came time to pay for the meal, threw a fit when the waiter asked to see his I.D. (declaring that he had "a right under law of California"), only relenting when he was threatened with having the police called.

The Disaster Artist did a fantastic job at portraying Wiseau's bizarre nature, but seeing this scene in live-action would have been nothing short of magical.
