Great Comedies get better with repeated watchings, where certain catch phrases infect regular society, possibly without people even realizing it... This Movie is a great example, as is Old School... and Seinfeld on the TV side... Arrested Development is well on its way as well.
i use many quotes from office space durring the day, and the awsome thing is that most of the time everyone knows what its from
I will actually set up situations in life just to use seinfeld quotes... for instance, my girlfriend and I had an arguement because she was being moody, so i went out for about 20 minutes to just get away (cause thats the best way to handle a moody woman, who isnt trying to be a bitch) and when i came back, i still acted angry, just so she'd say "Im sorry" at which point i said "You can stuff your sorrys in a sack mister."
She smacked cause she figured out i was fucking with her.
and in a meeting at work, i made a good line, and said "Thats it, you've been great, Im outta here" and walked out of the meeting.

The ending's the weakest part. It gets a little sappy and cheesy...but it's still great.
How so?
Well, not the last few minutes. I guess it's just me, but the scene where he's talking to Jennifer Anniston, saying he's going to confess, he's learned his lesson, etc., etc....I don't know, I guess it seemed like something I'd seen a million times already. I'm not saying it drove me crazy or anything, mind you.
This is definitely one of my favorite movies. Being a cubicle rat myself, I relate to this movie so much. Some of my favorite lines:
"Can you hypnotize me so that when I come home from work, I don't remember being there? Like I think I was fishing all day?"
"You know the Nazis had pieces of flair.........that they made the Jews wear."
"This is about more than you or me or my dream of doing nothing."
*talking about Michael Bolton* "When he sings 'When a Man Loves a Woman', it doesn't get any better than that in my book. I celebrate the guy's entire catalogue."

Here's what I learned today from watching the retrospective on the the Special Edition DVD with Flair.
There was no such thing as a red Swingline stapler. They actually painted 4 of them for the movie. Then people started calling Swingline to order them, and some knock-off started selling on e-bay. So, Swingline started making red staplers, and it's their top selling model.

i'm going to need to see Swingline's sales reports for the past few years in order to believe that.
get on it, B.

is that it? give us some more juice
I don't know. It was a good extra, but nothing else that made me go Hmmmm. The deleted scenes are lame. If you already have Office Space on DVD, I wouldn't bother.
