Thing is Tommy was in several severe car crashes, he might have legit brain damage. While Chris is well....Chris.
Ok first thing lets look at Wiseau's magnum opus The Room, this is basically an outsider art film. No I do not believe Tommy was self aware when making this, he might try to sell that bullshit now but even then it falls apart like him calling it a satire, satire of what? He still doesn't get it.
Now here are the main things I took from the film. One this is sort of Tommy's idealized world and social group hugbox, notice how out of place his self insert in among these twenty somethings, why is a 50s something guy hanging out with and dating 20 somethings? Second instead of a love quest its clear this film serves some kind of melodrama for Tommy over a failed relationship in his past where he felt badly hurt and betrayed.
But in The Disaster Artist one of the actors outright states he believes the "world" crafted in the film is sort of Tommy's idealized existance, that he is mentally stuck at the age the characters are.
See where I'm going with this? CWCville in Sonichu serves the same function for Chris, along with his obsession with his laughable high school years where gal pals let him sit with them out of pity. Chris has sadly tweeted merge lore claiming his body is eternally 21.
The Lisa melodrama plays out in Sonichu as the love quest and the parade of fake girlfriends like Ivy.
I think there is way more meat here than Warhol.
Thing is Tommy isn't lazy, he worked damn hard to get where he is now whereas Chris can't even be bothered to draw a comic and when he does it looks like a 7 year old made it.
