New theory, Tommy Wiseau is The Highlander


There are some theories floating around about who Tommy Wiseau is, where he's from and how he got his money. Wiseau is notoriously secretive about his past, speaks in an unplaceable accent, and has a respectable net worth despite appearing, in every way, unemployable. One theory is that he's D.B. Cooper, out of hiding and living under an alias, but after watching the Highlander for the first time, I'm certain that it's a film about his life.

I'm not going to waste comparison shots, or audio clips that prove that Christopher Lambert intentionally modeled his nondescript accent after Wiseau's, here on a forum. I'm saving them for a bestselling expose: Lestat-ing, how the rock-star of immortals is shaking up the secretive world of ageless beings. But I challenge anyone to watch The Room, then watch Highlander, imagine Wiseau's voice speaking all of Lambert's lines, and not know in their heart that they're watching the tale of Tommy "The Highlander" Wiseau, in all of it's glory.

Duncan became connected to all living things, I'm willing to bet Wiseau's connected to all living things.

And look at that guy and tell me he doesn't own swords.

hahaha. What a story, FreakNumberOne.

A Superman without trunks isn't worth watching or reading about.
