@@Q80Warlock Yeah, it was actually mentioned in a deleted scene that Lumbergh was killed in the fire. But since he wasn't seen when the building was set on fire, I guess viewers could conclude that.
Saw this and the cake scene on a mental health awareness video Milton did as he should have I would make him his own cake and make everyone else watch, including blue shirt lady And buy him his own desk and room and stapler MILTON FOREVERRRR
0:55 Peter Gibbons is packing up his things ready to go and visit Mr. Bill Lumbergh at Initech the office building since he dropped off the travelers checks from the stolen money at his office, so that way Mr. Bill Lumbergh could ban Peter Gibbons from visiting Initech the office building, not to apologize to him to what he did, call the cops on Peter Gibbons and arrest him at the police station in jail and send him to the courthouse.
Stephen root might have the highest level of acting ability in this movie. And he's playing a mumbling stumbling Pyro. Love how exits the scene. What a character
In all fairness, Milton kept warning them what he was going to do if he didn’t get his paycheck! And by God, he did it. He set the damn building on fire! LOL
@@AR-ix8fq i know he does for now. i mean, if this was real life, there would be an investigation were he could be a suspect and he could be investigated. that's what i meant.
.... they wouldn't get it. Hell half the time management in these companies will repost that shitty cringe meme of that TPS scene, using it as a way to remind you to submit your time sheets or whatever, with no sense of irony or self-awareness of what they're spoofing or what Office Space was even about.
if management suffered any of the consequences of the decisions they do and Don't make, then they would care about the health and wellbeing of their workers.
They have a business class in management dedicated for this. Organizational Behavior... lets just say the material doesn't stick as well, and the concepts can become dry. They shouod show this movie tho, it fits in line with the entire class. 8 plus weeks of material in 1 hour a 30 min...
@@booneshow1863Not so fast there, Professor. He was layed off five years ago and through a glitch in the system he kept getting paychecks. We just went ahead and fixed the glitch. It'll work itself out.
"This sounds like a very dangerous assumption. I'll bet you anything, that while you're watching a quiet one, a noisy one will fucking kill you. Imagine you're in a bar and a guy was in the corner reading a book, not bothering anyone, and there's another guy by the door jumping up and down screaming with a machete yelling 'I'll kill the next motherfucker who walks in here'....Who you gonna watch?" (George Carlin)
@l o l I'm shy and am socially awkward. I have social anxiety and keep to myself. at my last work place, it was a running joke (among others) that i may shoot up the place. all I wanted to do was do my job and go home. that's it.
Astounding the way Stephen Root subjugated himself so masterfully to play this part. He was just coming off playing the big boss on News Radio, and really every other project before that. He always played executives, bosses, rich assholes, etc. At first I didn’t even realize it was him in this film. I’m not ever gonna get over that. I mean he stole this film from everybody in it. Brilliant actor.
@@johnussss I came here to say that. Absolutely brilliant. The first time I watched it, I busted out laughing when the camera panned to him. I knew it was gonna be good!
Been watching Barry on HBO (award winning show in my opinion) just realized that he is Fuches. Moreover he plays Bill from King of the Hill along many other roles I didn’t know about. Big fan of his after finding all this out today lol
@SuperNostalgia. Bad news friend. Jesus reported you as a stalker. He says you guys have never even met and please just leave him and his family alone.
And there you have it.. Hot the Red Stapler become so popular.. As it never existed. They paint one Red for the movie..But the company got so many calls for a Red One.. They started producing them. Their most popular Stapler to this day....
I've only seen him in this movie and no country for Old men, but I am surprised by his acting chops, it's a shame he hasn't been in anything recent as far as I know
I used to work with a guy like him. He just got fired last week for talking to himself and making threats. The companies walls are made out of concrete.
@James F Never said he was. The movie shows that in the workplace you have crazy co workers. Not all are bad but I don't want to work with a guy that talks about kidnapping woman and killing them. Get that.
I once worked with an imbicile who claimed he would " bomb assistant managers" homes. He got fired a couple of months after that for purposefully putting his arm through a glass window and breaking it...all while tearing up his arm. His elevator didn't quite ever reach the top.😏
I remember being in 6th grade bragging in school about how my uncle took me to see an R rated movie. My teacher pulled me aside, looked at me straight in the eyes super serious and said “all those funny things can get someone fired or arrested” 😂😂
@@circleinforthecube5170 I wasn't working there when this was filmed, but I believe only the outside shots of the building were filmed there. The rest of the movie was probably filmed in a studio.
The funniest thing as that I had a really shitty job as a dialysis technician, where they bullied and took advantage of me for over a decade. Now, in The South, you don't wear a confederate flag in a semblance of defiance anymore, so, I took one of my contractor caps with the velcro backing for morale patches, and I found the perfect patch. It has a picture of a red swingline stapler on it and read, "Come And Take It!" underneath! What made it even more significant is that I was a guy named Peter working under an endless line of Bill Lumbergs!
I love these 80s style eye glasses. Sure the technology has evolved immensely, I'm sure these suck for people who need them in comparison to newer ones, but the style and sheer *size* of the lenses is bangin.
Technology allowed for smaller more "fringe" styles to become affordable. Other than that, some people still prefer large frames as they give you great peripheral vision.
@@Light-Rock97 It'll be difficult to source them today though as they're not in style. Also, depending on the material they can be heavy. That's why they weren't popular.
@@taoliu3949 I tried a pair of silver ones once, light and thin, but had the nice shape I like. I thought about getting some for fashion but I heard of too many people screwing their vision doing that.
Ive got bad vision and wear contacts but I've been slowly getting bigger and bigger frames so I can go to the store and ride my bike and my gf says I look like a bug
I’m an information security professional… the fact that one fire got Peter off the hook and destroyed this business is a perfect reason why they were doomed from the start. No disaster recovery plan, no business continuity plan, no data backups offsite, and no accounting metrics to keep track of Peter’s wrongdoings. Doomed to fail at the first issue like this.
Well, Milton also got revenge not only with getting the money from the '%cent scheme' but apparently Lumberg died in the fire too. There's deleted scene about Lumberg's funeral and notice in this scene that Lumberg's car is still in the parking lot and he's not apart of the crowd.
@@doomguy2532 Probably why they cut it out. They wanted a relatively lighthearted ending. The death of their boss, whose only real crime was being a bit of dick, would have put a darker tone on the ending.
Okay, at 01:01...how many of you lived in an apartment complex where your entrance looked exactly like this??? I'm 53 years old, and I've lived many apartments and in many different houses, but I most definitely lived in an apartment that looked just like this when I moved out of my parents house!
I have to say, I'm Milton at my work right now. Have been for two years. Or more. Just one insult after another. For 5 years now to the point where it became bullying and it broke me mentally and where I really feel like I don't have almost any dignity left. Not any I think. I took it, because I need the money, couldn't find another job, or maybe could, but I honestly didn't want to give the bullies the satisfaction, because I would need to downgrade a lot probably and they would take pleasure in that. It's my own fault to a degree I can't get a better job...but man, this current one and the insults and how frequent and overwhelming they became and how it destroys you mentally... Don't wish this on anyone to be honest...
hence why i decided long ago 2 stick wit blue collar work tbh- u able to stay physically active, no worries of suffering weirdass psychological n emotional abuse from management, u allowed 2 b jokingly racist n sexist wit ur coworkers lol, etc
That's what you people get for neglecting one of your workers, you take his stapler, you put him in the basement, and you don't let him have cake, so he decides to burn the office down, so good job on not letting him do anything.
It was still hinted that Lumbergh died in the fire in the finished film. Notice that he's literally the only one who isn't among the crowd, and that his Porsche was still parked in its usual spot.
