Thumbs up or thumbs down?

I'm watching this thing for about the fifteenth time and parts of it are beginning to lose their appeal.

I think if you watch any movie 15 times it will lose its appeal. Its probably my favorite comedy ever.

Definitely a thumbs up. And for anyone who's ever worked in an office, some of it is disturbingly dead on.

Funniest part is when they use the dictionary to look up that word, I think it was counterfeit. I really need to buy this one.

At my last job, I actually had to fill out "TPS Reports". Total Piece of Shit Reports if you ask me. :?

I once worked with "TPS Reports" before on a job as well. :lol: (it stood for "Toronto Police Services"). I busted out laughing when I was handed the "TPS Reports". I didn't have to fill them out though. But I hope you remembered to include the cover sheets with your own version of TPS reports, Punkdavid.

Anyway this is one of the greatest movies ever. I've seen it at least 15 times as well, but I think that the more I see it, the more I like it.

ps--here's a site with some pretty funny Office Space merchandise:

I'm pretty sure ours stood for "Total Production Survey" or something like that, and I bet that's what it stood for in the movie, although they never really say, do they?

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.
