first of all, i've been holding off on buying this one because i knew that a special edition of this movie has been in the works for years. yes, years. it's one of my favourite comedies, so last weekend i couldn't take it anymore and bought it for $16 at future shop.

and now, the new news. apparently office space is one of fox's best selling dvds, and they've been itching to release a new version of it...."But in a telling interview, creator and director Mike Judge says that Fox wants to stiff him on the deal, so he refuses to sign off on any bonus materials. According to a Fox spokersperson, discussions are still "ongoing."
i guess i neither win nor lose, we'll have to wait for another year or something before anythign shows up, because i know that fox will eventually release it with or without judge's consent
Mike Judge is one of the finniest people around. Office Space is so great, I can watch it over and over again.
I keep looking for the SE of this one... Maybe someday.
Office Space is okay. I don't like anything else by Judge.
Lay off the crack!
Beavis and Butthead and King of the Hill are gold!
I even liked him in Spy Kids, but I'm pretty biased towards him.
Office Space is extremely funny. Beavis and Butthead can get old after a while but still funny. King of the Hill is alright, depending on my mood.
I was holding out on buying it for the same reason as sphinx, and I was just wondering about the progress of that because it's listed in this week's Entertainment Weekly Top 50 Cult Movies. M'kay?

They have a big article about it in EW actually, in it they say its a top selling DVD with like 2.5 million sold and that the studio wants to release SE versions but Judge doesnt want to because the deal rips him off some way. He also says he hates hollywood....

I enjoyed Daria (when I went on USA trips, I'd watch it). I'd daydream about getting it on with the bimbo cheerleader. Cartoon chicks are hot.

damn, it feels good to be a gansta
you coochie eatin' pranksters
my friends and i would watch that song with the subtitles on because it has the lyrics of the song.......it's so hilarious
also.......the part where the judge says "i sentence you to a federal pound me in the ass prison"........ha!
That movie is the origin of so many great phrases.
Before I settled on Xixax, I totally wanted to call this place "notalentassclown.com" but it wasn't meant to be - the domain name was taken.
Gary Cole as Lumberg shoulda been up for an Oscar. I've worked with guys like him, with the coffee cup glued to his hand, etc. When I first saw it, he reminded me of someone in my office, someone who sort of looked like Lumberg, and definitely sounded like Lumberg, so I could barely contain my mirth.
A friend of mine just wrote me and asked for suggestions for a new band he was forming. with Office Space fresh on my mind from this thread, I came up with a few immediately:
"Cock Gobblers"
"No Talent Ass Clowns"
"The Michael Boltons"
"This is a Fuck"
"Lumbergh"
"The Miltons"
"Swingline"
"Breast Exam"
or my favorite,
"Fifteen Pieces of Flair"
The possibilities are just endless. Damn, I love this movie.
this may very well be the greatest thing ever said in movie history
Peter: When you come in on Monday and you're not feeling real well, does anyone say to you, "Sounds like someone has a case of the Mondays?"
Lawrence: Shit, no man. I believe you'd get your ass kicked saying something like that, man.
If I had a million dollars, I'd do nothing. I'm all for that.

I also had Betty and Veronica in mind. And Melody and Cheryl Blossom. Archie comics made me girl-crazy.
did anyone ever see this in the theaters? i really wanted to, but they wouldn't let me in (it was rated r for naughty language).
2 fast-forward to '3001' for helmer Judge
Source: Hollywood Reporter
"Saturday Night Live" regular Maya Rudolph and "Punk'd" standout Dax Shepard are close to lead roles in director Mike Judge's comedy "3001" opposite Luke Wilson for 20th Century Fox. Penned by Judge and Etan Cohen, "3001" centers on Joe Bowers (Wilson), an average American who is selected for a top-secret hibernation program that finds him waking up and living among a society 10 centuries in the future. He finds that civilization is so dumbed-down that he is the most intelligent person alive. Rudolph, who is still in negotiations to join the cast, would will play a prostitute with Shepard starring as Frito, a defense attorney with a perpetually glazed-over look who becomes Bowers' court-appointed attorney.
This sounds interesting. Im down for anything judge. Luke Wilson used to be overrated. Now he is underrated. The rest of the cast isn't rated.
Mike Judge = Underrated squared.
Luke Wilson rocks and Judge too... Office Space is also one of my favourite comedies that I watch over and over again...
Hey Peter... what's happening!
Yeaaaaa......I'm gonna go ahead and agree with everyone here that...uh....'Office Space' is a freakin' classic!
Just like people have said, you can watch it over and over and over and be pleased each time. I dont think I'll ever get sick of it. The scene with the beating of the fax machine is one of the greatest things ever, along with the hilarious use of gansta rap ("die motherfucker! die motherfucker!"). The films a legend!

u know u already posted that in the Wilson Bros thread (http://xixax.com/viewtopic.php?t=1706&start=15) don't u? (without the snl/punk'd additions)
anyway, i'll say what i said there.. "nice plot buddy, it's called Futurama, specifically
The Day the Earth Stood Stupid."
mike judge needs to make another movie. is etan cohen ethan coen? or are their names just creepily similar. maya rudolph=good. dax?=bad.
What is Judge up to these days?
He's a funny guy. I wonder why he doesn't make more comedies.
Hey..
You've all see this right?

I own a Swingline stapler in my cubicle. It scares me. Sometimes I call HR just to see if I am still on the payroll.
On a completely unrelated note, Marlon Brando died today. Didn't catch how old he was. Boy, he got fat.
Quote from: thedigitalbits.comOh... you guys are gonna LOVE this!
Sources at 20th Century Fox have just confirmed with me that the long-awaited Office Space: Special Edition is finally a go! The studio and director Mike Judge are currently hard at work on the disc, which is tentatively planned for release in early 2005. There's no other details available at the moment (so don't ask - it's too early in the process), but the title IS finally coming and you can bet we'll keep you up to date on this as things progress.
How's that for a way to stave off a bad case of the Mondays?
Yay, but I predict it won't last.
Quote from: thedigitalbits.comAnd on the catalog film front, you'll be happy to learn that the long awaited Office Space: Special Edition is shaping up nicely and will include some very cool bonus material. Expect that in 2005 as well.
From The Digital Bits:
The long-awaited Office Space: Special Edition is currently in production, and is being actively worked on by director Mike Judge. Look for it sometime later in 2005.
Wait--- what?
It's shaping up, due early 2005, now it's currently in production and is due late 2005?
Those fudge packers need to get it together.
i guess they're timing it to coincide with his new movie?
i have no idea how finished it is though.
Acording to dvdaficionado.com it has a release date of August 2nd 2005. That site has become reliable most of the time but I would wait until an official release date from another site.
Fox has revealed some of the extras to be included on their Office Space: Special Edition (with More Flair) due on 11/1. In addition to a new anamorphic widescreen transfer and audio commentary with writer/director Mike Judge, look for the Out of the Office: An Office Space Retrospective with Mike Judge documentary, the film's theatrical trailer, deleted scenes (including Peter Lies to Lumbergh, Happy Hour and Chotchkies, Peter Goes off on Nina and Tom's Mixed Heritage Called into Question), DVD-ROM extras and more.
Title: Office Space
Released: 1st November 2005
SRP: $19.98
More Details?
Fox Home Entertainment has today revealed details on the extra material for the long awaited special edition of Office Space which stars the likes of Ron Livingston, Jennifer Aniston and Ajay Naidu. The disc will be available to own from the 1st November this year, and should retail at around $19.98. The disc will carry a new 1.85:1 anamorphic widescreen transfer, along with an English Dolby Digital 5.1 track. Extras will include an Out of the Office: Office Space Retrospective with Mike Judge, deleted scenes (Peter Lies to Lumbergh, Happy Hour and Chotchkies, Peter Goes off on Nina, & Tom's Mixed Heritage Called into Question), the theatrical trailer, DVD-ROM audio, and some visual downloads.

Was I the only one waiting for some Mike Judge commentary?
I sold my old copy to get this, and this seems to be a sliver better than the old one.
That would be the only thing to get me to buy a new edition and they didn't put it on there. Smart.
I certainly hope they bring the cast and director filmographies over... because then the new one wouldn't even be worth it.
hmnm.... mac's news says its on there and mine says it aint. so maybe they accidentally left it off (the news)? it might still be on there...
Mike Judge setting up 'Extract'
Jason Bateman to star in comedy
Source: Variety
Mike Judge will direct and Jason Bateman will star in the comedy "Extract," the first project to be produced under Judge's new shingle, Ternion Prods., which he formed with writer-producers John Altschuler and Dave Krinsky.
Ternion is fully financed to develop film, TV, digital and new-media projects through a finance and development deal with Media Rights Capital. The shingle will also produce films and TV projects through the traditional studio and network route.
Penned by Judge, "Extract" explores what it's like to be the boss when everything seems to be shifting around you.
Miramax will distribute in North America.
Altschuler is producing alongside Michael Rotenberg. Tom Lassally and Krinsky exec produce.
Ternion is bringing its first series to the smallscreen under its deal with MRC. "The Goode Family," which will air on ABC, was created by Altschuler, Judge and Krinsky, who are also exec producing along with Rotenberg and Lassally. The series is currently in production on its first 13 episodes and will bow in the first quarter of 2009.
MRC has also preemptively acquired Altschuler and Krinsky's spec film script "Brigadier Gerard." Comedy is set in the Napoleonic era and is based on a short story by Arthur Conan Doyle. Ternion is attaching a director to shoot in 2009.
Judge, who wrote and directed "Office Space," is the creator of "Beavis and Butthead" and "King of the Hill," which he produced with Altschuler and Krinsky.
Altschuler and Krinsky wrote "Blades of Glory" and are penning "Brothers of Invention" in addition to finishing work on "The Jetsons."
Bateman next will be seen in "Hancock" alongside Will Smith and in the Kevin MacDonald-helmed political drama "State of Play."
