MSMC #1: Office Space

This is just a little thing I created for myself as a sort of challenge. I was pretty sheltered as a kid and fortunately haven't seen most of all the "must see" movies that everyone always talk about. I say fortunately because I can now watch them as an adult and most likely enjoy and understand them better :) With that said, I've started making my list, but I need some help. If there are some movies that you think are must see, then please leave a comment and tell me. 

I was looking at IMDB's Top 250 movies of all time list. I kind of used this list as a guideline for what most people consider "classic" or "must see" movies. I didn't list everything on there that I haven't seen, because that would be a lot of movies. But here are the ones people seem to talk about most that I have not seen.

In no particular order:
-The Godfather
-Harry Potter #4 & on.
-Pulp Fiction
-Schindler's List
-Any of The Lord of the Rings
-Any of the Star Wars
-Goodfellas
-The Matrix
-Any of the Indiana Jones
-Casablanca
-Citizen Kane
-A Clockwork Orange
-The Breakfast Club
-Reservoir Dogs
-Some Like It Hot
-2001: A Space Odyssey
-Pan's Labyrinth
-Die Hard
-The Departed
-Jaws
-Snatch
-The Sixth Sense
-Hotel Rwanda
-Scarface
-The Wizard of Oz
-Donnie Darko
-V for Vendetta
-Million Dollar Baby
-Stand by Me
-A Beautiful Mind
-The Truman Show

So my plan for Must See Movie Monday -- I will watch one of them and then talk about it. And tell you all if I thought it was truly epic or not. And my first pick was Office Space


Comedic tale of company workers who hate their jobs and decide to rebel against their greedy boss.


Release Dates:
Theaters: Feb 19, 1999
DVD: Aug 31, 2000

Cast:

Favorite Parts:
-The O face.
-Michael Bolton rapping.
-All of the incidents with the printer.
-Every other part of the movie.

My Thoughts:
So YES! This movie is completely and utterly hilarious! It is totally epic! I have no idea why I never watched this movie, but I am so glad I did. I was thinking about it for days (I watched it last week & just now came up with the idea for these posts) and I'm still thinking about it. I almost want to watch it right now. One thing that made it funny was to see how things were so different. And this was only in '99! But their glasses and clothes. Wow. Hilarious.

Have you seen Office Space?
Do you consider it a "must see" movie?
Did you think it was funny? Stupid? Both?
Or are you like I was and haven't seen it yet? You should!


And for the people that think they know Office Space like the back of their hand. I found this online quiz, I thought it was fun. I didn't do too well though, considering I've only seen it once. Enjoy!
