Office Space

:smirk: after speaking with Amit this evening, via Aim, i learned that after 7 years hes finnaly watched Office Space for the first time....i know i know....anyways, Amit shares his review of this movie in which after about a year and half of conversing and he being such a movie buff and all, with him, he tells me that he thought it was OK?


:serious: I know



so I thought of this, and would love some feedback....I love office space because Ive had that type of job before, and its something i can relate to in almost any job ive ever had...from the bosses to the co-workers, to the neighbor to everything...I also find that to no surprise young Amit has never had a job, thus bringing me to query....


Dost one need to have worked in ones life, to fully appreciate Office Space to its fullest comedic humor. Im going to assume there are more deadbeats like Amit :smirk: lurking amongst this board and would like to have their opinion as well.....

I told Amit to get a job (no working with Dad doesnt count) and then rent it again.....

You have to work in a place like that to truly appreciate it. (I currently do.)

First of all, I said it's pretty good. I said that because people make it out to be the best movie ever made.

Overall, I'd give it a 7.5.

Agreed.

I would have thought it was funny in high school or college, but I wouldn't have appreciated it as much.

Funny story: I lent out my Office Space DVD to some co-workers and some of us got together one night to watch it together. Everyone loved it. We were at an office happy hour and a bunch of us were laughing about Office Space. The CFO of my company walked up and asked what we were laughing about. We told her how great this movie is for people who work office jobs and I told her I would bring it in for her. About 2 weeks passed and she walked over to my cube. She handed me my DVD and said in a snotty tone, "Now I know what all of you people think about your job," and freakin' walked away! So she proved that management is a joke and that she is another version of Bill Lumberg! Mike Judge should be proud of moments like this. He portrayed management in the exact manner in which they usually act.

Zero, too bad you didn't label this "Office Space." I don't know if everyone will click on a thread named "Replying to Amit made me think...."

I've seen parts of it on Comedy Central. That counts for sh*t.

btw - Looks like Zero has an Amit obsession. I think he wants to bite your cherry. :yes:

If you've ever worked in an office of any kind, you get why this movie is hilarious.

I can't even begin to tell you how dead-on this movie is. I love it.

I've never seen the whole thing, but I think it's kinda overrated....people go nuts over this movie and gush about how great it is....I guess if you have a job like that, it makes the movie better, but overall it is kinda overrated.
