when I saw that fat man keel over and die, Michael, I realized that we don't have a lot of time on this earth. We weren't meant to spend it this way. Human beings weren't meant to sit in little cubicles, starring at computer screens all day, filling out useless forms and listening to eight different bosses drone on about mission statements.
That was on AMC last evening. I walked in the door just as it began.
A few months ago I read an article about this film and how it all but went nowhere in the theater and then slowly turned into a smash cult phenomenon after it was released on DVD. Writer/director Mike Judge (who also played Jennifer Aniston's boss in the film) and actor Ron Livingston expressed surprise at the number of people coming up to them with tales of how much this film meant to them.
