He posts multiple videos/images of him making out with Garfield plushes and proposing Garfield/Nathen/Scooby three-ways, then steals copyrighted images to make into NFTs as corporate revenge, yet he's afraid to sell or upload a PDF for a store operations menu? Pretty cowardly.

Take care of the cat Nathen....and it will take care of you

I don't know how any of the copyright or license stuff works but Nathen seemed to be very much aware of what he can and can't do without getting sued. Nathen said he has a lawyer and I would guess that his lawyer is probably a million times smarter than Nathen.

That's probably why he's going in hard on the NFT stuff. His lawyer probably told him it was safe. It's also small time and he doesn't seem like he's making huge profits so a lawsuit probably isn't worth Nickelodeon's time.

It's the equivalent of giving a cop the middle finger behind his back.

I've long suspected that Tommy Wiseau's projects were actually money laundering fronts for eastern european mobs.

My mother, a woman in her 60's, discovered the advent of T-Wise all on her own a couple years ago and asked me if I had ever heard of him. I was astonished that she had already watched The Room and The Disaster Artist. She suspects he's either a front for money laundering or an heir of someone who got rich after the USSR collapsed.

What really makes me suspect it is no one heard of him until he showed up in America to make a movie, which means he must have acquired his wealth very recently.

IIRC he scammed some rich widow into spending millions on his production company. Better than mafia money laundering? Worse? Lateral? Who knows.

The thing with Nathan is that he believes he's really good at all this stuff which is why it's so funny

It's a real Tommy wiseau situation

Yeah it's important to keep in mind that whenever you see anything produced by Nathen, he's thinking "I loving nailed it"

This man could not quantify "a moment of doubt" any more than I could tell you how to wear the moon like a hat; he is what happens when you really, truly never stop believing in yourself

My one buddy is a writer who almost exclusively writes in a genre I believe he called ‘absurdist.’ He told me the hallmark of the genre is that the reader knows that the protagonist is forever doomed to fail over and over and over again, but the protagonist themselves does not.

Nathen is that protagonist.

Wiseau owns this building in Fisherman's Wharf in SF:



So he's independently wealthy and could easily have funded his movie with no help. I'm not quite sure why everyone thinks there's a big mystery about where he got his money, his family probably bought that building years ago and are landlords as the family business.

people think there's a big mystery because he spent ages refusing to answer the question of how he funded the movie beyond a smile and "i imported jackets" - that's where the money laundering angle actually came from, because his business was not obviously booming and imports are a really good way to launder money.
