My CMV: Tigers are the most all-around aesthetic animals. Other species may be superior in particular categories, but tigers combine categories in a way that makes them aesthetically superior.

1. Color scheme. Their bright orange stripes are beautiful.

There are snakes, birds, and fish that may have superior colors, but they all lose out in other categories.

2. Body proportion. A tiger’s paws, head, and torso all fit together perfectly.

Contrast with freaks like bison. Tiny legs, giant head.

3. Majesty. Tigers are beautiful and terrifying.

Other species can be more majestic — whales are probably the most majestic animals on the planet, but fail in other categories.

4. Cuteness. They have the fluffiness and some of the cute behavior of house cats, like sitting in boxes.

This is certainly the tiger’s weakness, as it is very easy to list cuter animals. Pandas, red pandas, otters, and so on — but where is the majesty of the panda? Nowhere to be seen.

So that’s why tigers rule.

Recently a trailer for Bob Odenkirk’s version of Tommy Wiseau’s The Room popped up online. I originally thought the idea was to remake it with professional actors doing their best to make it a good movie, but I was wrong — Odenkirk played it as a comedy.

I’m wondering if a good movie could be made from the script.

Hold the dialogue and locations constant, but feel free to change anything else: lighting, camera angles, editing, of course acting.

Could your cinema dream team make the script work?
