Mike Judge might be best known for his animated work, but his live-action feature debut from 1999, Office Space, is one of the most quotable cult classics out there. Today we'll dive a bit into what makes Office Space so memorable and so worthy of a re-watch 25 years later.

It made some money back, and even some money back, makes companies head toward a sequel. Also it blew up on theatrical release, which means a producer will see that and make one son. Everyone involved is still alive, so at least its got that going for it.

@@Gardner0871public why thank you! VERY helpful,my guy. I wouldn't have thought that I'd provided enough context for anyone to successfully determine that I'm just being dramatic about the everyday pressures that we all face. I'd like to think that I can be easily forgiven for that little oversight though,considering how rare it is to encounter someone as perceptive as yourself. I'm curious about whether you employ these talents on a regular basis in your day to day life,or only ever from behind the safety and anonymity that the screen you're reading this on provides you. I only ask because of how much bolder people tend to be when speaking to a complete stranger,knowing that they're well outside of arm's reach. Everyone gets to be as brave as they fancy themselves to be in conditions as convenient as those. I'm sure that you'll agree with my assessment,given that you've already proven as much to be true. There again: convenient! And so again I must thank you. NOW all involved parties feel perfectly justified,correct!? Therefore everyone wins! Yay! 🥳🥳

The flair thing really made me think. What really sucks about a crappy job is that no matter what you’re not supposed to let on that it’s a crappy job. And the criteria for being a good employee isn’t whether you’re earning your pay, but whether you have any energy left to give to the company. They didn’t want her to wear the flair, they wanted her to WANT to wear the flair. They don’t just want your time and energy, they want your soul, and they want it without pledging any loyalty to you in return.

@@Zerpersande Read a great article years ago by a self-confessed introvert about the American happy-faced enthusiasm required at many jobs. She brought it over to a job in the Netherlands and when she wound herself up into open excitement mode and started vocally spewing about getting an ordinary project to do, she says people looked at her like she was a big phony and a nut. She didn't like the fake corporate culture she had gotten used to either, and felt much more comfortable being an introvert -- and just an ordinary person not expected to put on a clown show -- outside America.
@father3dollarbill
@father3dollarbill Месяц назад
well, if I'm analysing it on the employer's perspective and also a more healthy perspective for a person working those jobs, I'd say: give your best, no matter what job it is. If you're feeling really down, then it's because you need to figure out the next move. That's it. Them wanting you to WANT the flair is just them wanting an employee that's committed. It's their prerogative to want that or not for their employees. I've had low paying jobs. Menial jobs. And advice given to me helped me do it with a smile, want to do it, even. Just like wanting the flair piece. It's not being broken and finally submitting. That would be the case if I or anyone else simply stayed at the job they dislike, and faking a smile. That attitude of "I'll wear the flair, but only however the minimum is or however many you want me to" is the attitude of someone that isn't happy and doesn't have a plan for being happy. In the end, it's one of the movie's motifs. People who are miserable with their current job and have no way out, no plans. Until they find a way out, even if for a moment, in order to shake them up and get them thinking about themselves and the path they want to be on. Then, you won't be fading away on the inside. You have a plan and are giving out the best attitude you have, in the present moment and current situation. Hopefully that didn't come across as woo woo. It's just, for me, facts of life.
@user-ps1ft1hy4j
@user-ps1ft1hy4j Месяц назад
@@father3dollarbill The best attitude you can have definitely involves respecting yourself and not kow-towing to anyone just because they say so. You can do your job without pretending to be something you're not. Civility is not self-betrayal. Respect for customers is not self-betrayal. Faking a smile is self-betrayal. If you have a good attitude, you don't have to fake a good attitude. But you shouldn't have to sell your soul instead of just being a good worker. The idea that you must give your employer everything they want just because they ask or demand is the ultimate disrespect toward an employee, and everything an employer wants should not be okay "or you can just quit." Not everybody can, of course and as always. Just ask yourself if you want your girlfriend or mom or daughter groped at work because whatever the boss says goes. There is still right and wrong, and trying to claim your employee's soul is terribly wrong.

That movie resonates with me so strongly even today, I think my most constant thought from my 20s into my 30s changed from "what job will make me happy?" To "Is there a job thatll ever make me happy?".I think ultimately a lot of people this movie resonates with desire freedom and dont know how to obtain it. Thats why during the movie, the scene where he talks about the guidance counselor and the million bucks and not having an answer... thats been me, and I imagine a lot of you. The uncertainty of not having a specific calling. Ive always envied people that had a clear goal, and I dont think I ever will and it worries me. So I rewatch this movie pretty regularly to at least remind myself that the cult following this movie has and had are the same as me and I dont feel so unsure knowing im not alone.

Like you, I never had a clearly defined goal or Career Path! The only exception was when I was very young I wanted to be an Airline Pilot! I had several Flying Magazine Subscriptions, I built dozens of model airplanes and Commercial Jets, and went to bed dreaming of one day sitting in a cockpit of a 747 for American Airlines! I get severe Migraine Headaches and got out of the Army Reserves because of them! I was told that I would never be able to pass an FAA Physical! Knowing that, I realized that I could never be employed as a Commercial or Private Pilot! I envy my brother because he always wanted to be a Teacher/Coach and he ended up doing exactly that and loves it! If I could go back in time to when I was very young, I would absolutely research various occupations and would spend a great deal of time determining my skills, strengths, and preferences in an attempt to narrow down a Career Path that I could be “Passionate About”!

One thing that always stood out to me about this movie is the way it 'feels' and 'plays out' like an animated film. Like, if you imagine each scene as an animated version of itself, it works perfectly. Even the characters' voices are uncannily cartoon-like - especially Milton, Lumberg and Lawrence. I guess it makes sense, given Judge's background, but I always wondered if it was deliberate or just a case of Judge's animation style influencing his live action stuff.

They're written like cartoon characters. Perfectly framed for their role in the story, and no extraneous questions asked to distract from it. Which is what helps amplify the story, because the story is about feeling stuck in a proverbial box/rut, and the one path out you take checks as many cathartic boxes as possible.

My experience is that it is not the job that makes people miserable, it's the boss. When I was in the Navy, they would switch out division officers every year or so. A good Div O made for a happy division; a bad Div O meant misery for everyone. In civilian life, I found the same to be true. I worked at a museum and had the worst boss ever. Everyone was miserable. I was sent to another department - doing the exact same job. Best manager I ever had, best job I ever had.

Every goddamn second of this movie is pure perfection. Even if you removed the plot, the themes, and the story, the performances, the cinematography, and the direction alone make this movie simply great. This is perfectly exemplified in the shot where the guys are walking across the grass to get from the restaurant back to their job. That one throwaway shot tells so much: - The fact that their only escape from their job (the restaurant on their lunch break) is literally a stones throw away from their personal hell - the way they’re walking, like they’re begrudgingly trudging back to a slow death - The slight dip in the grass for seemingly no reason is the cherry on top. I absolutely love this movie. It’s a stroke of subtle genius.

The greatest thing about Office Space is that you don't even have to have had an office job to appreciate it. If you've been employed (like, at all) you can appreciate it. I worked at Guitar Center in college, and one day somebody brought in the DVD and put it in the player in the break room. That thing played on repeat for WEEKS.

I honestly remember inviting friends over in middle school just to watch Office Space. I hadn’t worked a day of my life as a sixth grader yet the oppressive office atmosphere reminded me of school so I could still relate; that disgusting cubicle wall material, carpet that feels like concrete, and the off-white plastics of early 90’s computers/monitors. This movie saved me from a corporate life as I already hated it before I stepped foot in a business park.

3:20, little shots like this are so great, the group is returning from a coffee break at a restaurant and instead of having a nice path to make it easier for them to go to the neighboring restaurant, or even their cars, they need to walk through this valley in their nice work shoes. The corporate world does a lot of tricks like this to make leaving work or taking a break difficult, and this is a nice visual representation of that. My old company used to crank up the AC so high it made us shiver (some women even wore blankets at their desks) the reason? So we wouldn’t get sleepy throughout the day or sound tired on our calls.

I'm going to be over there if you want" was a revelation, a breath of fresh air. I'm almost certain that I was never ever that smooth, but it at least gave me a framework to work with.

This movie is a live changing experience. It makes you think about your life, while serving you some of the best laughs that you'll ever have.

Office space is like a light hearted take on fight club. The look of shock on the friends face when he told his friend someone said “case of the Mondays” is something I can totally relate to having to navigate through this PC world.

The late 90s had an anti-corporate attitude that resonated throughout cinema. You had the Matrix, Fight Club, Office Space, and American Psycho all within 2 years of each other. I think that we're gonna see a resurgence of this type of movie with a focus on work from home/hybrid work. Maybe that's just me haha

'The Castle (1997)' is an Australian Comedy/Drama that is so quotable it's effectively tattooed into Australian culture... The serenity and vibe of it. It's a much watch if you actually want to understand 90s Australia.

Was that the one where their house was located near an airport and they took a road trip to Bonny Doone? Singing “We’re going to Bonny Doone, we’re going to Bonny Doone’. Another movie I liked was “Muriel’s Wedding”. From looking at the poster, it looked like a chick flick, but it was so much more.

I saw this in theaters...AMC Quail Spings in OKC. I was 24 and this movie was super relatable to a recent college Graduate working in an office cubicle dead end job the year before Y2K. People forget that Peter's entire job was to fix data for the impending doom of the new century. I went with about six or seven friends in the same boat. Great memories and a great movie!
