Movies like The Room and the various Sharknado films wouldn’t seem to have anything in common with the likes of Wes Anderson, Quentin Tarrantino, and Aaron Sorkin. But there is in the way these movies and moviemakers use (or misuse) accepted film tropes and techniques. What is that mystery ingredient? See for yourself.
