why?

C
chuckthecloneOG 2002 ·

well as i said, i don't really know why. if i had to name some reasons i guess...

1) the comedy in it isn't that great (to me "can i have my stapler back" isn't that funny)

2) i don't like jennifer anniston

3) i never worked in a cubical so i can't relate to the movie. i can see how it would be funny if you ever had a job somewhat like it but i never have so i can't relate to it.

iwz iwz ·

#3 is the key point here. you really have to have worked in an office to appreciate the humor in it all.

juicymango juicymangoOG 2003 ·

yeah you really need to have worked in an office enviroment to get the movie. The movie is almost not even exaggerated, working in a cubicle sucks THAT bad. And the people suck THAT bad. And it just is not fun.

socalgal socalgalOG 2003 ·

oh yeah! you can totally relate esp with Milton where you feel you're being edged outta your cubie!

i watched the skateboarding movie grind the other da;y and the fat guy with t he stapler is in it. bad movie. he;s funny tho.

thefunkyfresh thefunkyfreshFounder ·

my brother said this is the worst movie ever, he said the skating is cool though...

socalgal socalgalOG 2003 ·

it is VERY lame, but yes the skating is pretty cool, but there's not enough of it. but you can see our logo's on there...way cool!

flomojopoanode flomojopoanodeFounder ·

breakin' is like that too. Cool break dancing, when they do it...which is not enough. Really dumb movie otherwise.

malibu malibuOG 2001 ·

i think a lot of movies that try to focus on one sport are like this because they just want attention to the sport but have to create a story around it.

also, dirty dancing 2 havana nights was a horrible story but amazing dancing and really good music.

thatdarngirl thatdarngirlOG 2002 ·

They should all take a hint from Swing Kids.

socalgal socalgalOG 2003 ·

"it don't mean a thing if it ain't got that swing"

thatdarngirl thatdarngirlOG 2002 ·

I can whistle that! took me a while..ooooh the hottness of Nazi Christian Bale!

fivezero fivezeroOG 2003 ·

Baal worshipper.

socalgal socalgalOG 2003 · fivezero

HAHAHAHAHA that was good!!!

socalgal socalgalOG 2003 ·

i'm impressed! i can't even whistle!

oh yeah he looked pretty tasty!!!

malibu malibuOG 2001 · socalgal

yeah i can't whistle either. its horrible. one day i'll learn because i used to not be able to make bubbles with my gum but i can do that quite well now.

hunkpapap hunkpapapOG 2003 ·

wasn't this from a cartoon originally?

deanh77 deanh77Founder ·

yes, from one of the shorts Mike Judge did of Milton (the stapler guy) I think it was on Saturday night live and Liquid Television on MTV.

iwz iwz ·

socalgal socalgalOG 2003 ·

WHUUUUUTTT???? he doesn't have cable???

forrestina forrestinaOG 2002 ·

...i dont even have a tv...

juicymango juicymangoOG 2003 ·

i don't have cable either but comedy central comes with my basic 4 channel cable. Cable is ghey, too much for my ADD haha

socalgal socalgalOG 2003 ·

its wonderful for ADD, when you get bored of something you have like 300 channels to choose from! i wish i had more time to watch TV!!!! haha

perrin perrinOG 2004 ·

You should see me playing video games sometimes I get like that and switch what I'm playing like ever 2 minutes. lol

skaorsk8 skaorsk8OG 2002 ·

mike doesn't have any TV. which, quite frankly, is probably a good thing. i wish i didn't have TV.

aviator aviatorOG 2004 ·

never saw that either... i only watch disney movies... like bambi...

aviator aviatorOG 2004 ·

hahahaha. That made me crack up.

socalgal socalgalOG 2003 ·

i had an office space moment this morning! I was driving into work this morning and it seemed that the lane next was moving faster than the dead stop lane i was in.....so i move over and that comes to a dead stop and the lane i just got out of, everyone was flying by me.....yeah feels like a monday to me (no matter what the calendar says)

thatdarngirl thatdarngirlOG 2002 ·

Yeah..that happens to me all the time and I throw a fit.

socalgal socalgalOG 2003 ·

makes you want to throw water balloons at people on the freeway :P

thatdarngirl thatdarngirlOG 2002 ·

This is such a good idea..I think I need to keep a cooler full of them in my car.

aviator aviatorOG 2004 ·

haha water guns work good too. I saw a sale on Super Soakers the other day.

modestjesse modestjesseOG 2004 ·

It's so funny if you work in an office. One of the girls showed the movie to her husband he didn't find it that funny, he's in construction or something.

But it's so true it kills me.

socalgal socalgalOG 2003 ·

yeah only us office freaks know and get the movie!

fivezero fivezeroOG 2003 ·

I saw a Milton name badge and Stapler at Hot Tapioca. I laughed.

thatdarngirl thatdarngirlOG 2002 ·

Hot Topioca..do they also sell pudding?

fivezero fivezeroOG 2003 ·

Only the best pudding this side of Transylvania.

aviator aviatorOG 2004 ·

Milton is my hero. It takes some true cajones to do what he did.

thatdarngirl thatdarngirlOG 2002 ·

at my new job I get to work in a cubicle and I'm really excited cause I'll be acting out office space in my mind.

aviator aviatorOG 2004 ·

haha bring a drill gun to undo the screws hahaha. What kind of cubicle did they give you?

thatdarngirl thatdarngirlOG 2002 ·

I don't know..I haven't gone there yet. Tomorrow though!!

aviator aviatorOG 2004 ·

haha wow a cubicle. I wish I had one. They are way nicer than this crowded office I share with 13 people

forrestina forrestinaOG 2002 ·

haha i just got moved into one recently and we were all joking about how realistic office space is. for like 2 weeks or more there were people in my office that didn't even know us 3 girls were in cubes in my bosses old office.

deanh77 deanh77Founder ·

yeah, I had a corner office I shared with 3 other people with WINDOWS and now I'm in a cube on the other side of the office, completely away from everyone, and all I see is my monitor and two half-walls and the ceiling.

fivezero fivezeroOG 2003 ·

Remember the guy who DIED in his cubicle and wasn't found for 3 days. he died in a writing position. everyone thought he was the first to arrive and the last to leave. until they realized he evacuated his bowels and was decomposing.

aviator aviatorOG 2004 ·

thats really gross

modestjesse modestjesseOG 2004 ·

Yeah, I read about that, crazy.

aviator aviatorOG 2004 stupid ·

its ok. I have to work with a fat guy who sweats so much his shirt drips everywhere. No offense to the obese.

socalgal socalgalOG 2003 ·

thats my stapler

aviator aviatorOG 2004 ·

i miss my cubicle that was near the window cause i used to watch the squirrels outside and they were married and they used to chase each other.

Ok Milton thank you very much

iwz iwz ·
aviator aviatorOG 2004 ·
