#OfficeSpace #MikeJudge
No one ever noticed Milton, so he finally decided to capitalize on it.
He got away with man slaughter for being unnoticed I think in the original ending Bill Lumbergh died in the fire too.
@@Q80Warlock Yeah, it was actually mentioned in a deleted scene that Lumbergh was killed in the fire. But since he wasn't seen when the building was set on fire, I guess viewers could conclude that.
@@AGPfan Wow I will have to rewatch it. I always figured Lumberg was not in yet and no one died but no one could confirm who started the fire.
Late reply but it’s implied Lumbergh is demoted, hence why he isn’t at his office and why his parking space isn’t labelled as VP President anymore.
@@svenicarus4872 Actually you could imply that he was literally fired.
Stephen root might have the highest level of acting ability in this movie. And he's playing a mumbling stumbling Pyro. Love how exits the scene. What a character
Don’t let his bumblingness deceive you 😂
I can't tell if this is a Team Fortress 2 reference or not. Mumbling pyro immediately makes me think of the TF2 character.
@@CIARUNSITE it wasn't. But I hope this character you speak of has super thick lenses and creepy attachment to a stapler
I'd say it's a toss-up between him and Gary Cole as Lumbergh- the ultimate toxic, soulless middle manager.
And then his performance as Fuches in Barry was phenomenal
Poor Milton. Down in the basement, garbage on his desk, no paycheck, and no stapler.
Storage room B instead of Storage room A...smh
And also no cake :(
Well technically he didn't actually work there.
And yet he came out the winner
@@Nx0-o1i burned that batch down
I love the way milton was mumbling the whole way into the office lol
Peter looking at Milton, remembering the threat that he has made several times and Peter actually listening to him. Then he began to smile he was free
Yeah..Milton seemed to view Peter as a sort of friend in the office so Milton without knowing it helped out his only friend at work.
❤
In all fairness, Milton kept warning them what he was going to do if he didn’t get his paycheck! And by God, he did it. He set the damn building on fire! LOL
It WAS his stapler.
I think Peter is the only person he tells directly. Other times he’s just muttering it under his breath after Lumbergh walks away.
@@s3dchr it was a Swingline stapler!
Tht part😂
Stephen Root actually still has that stapler on his mantle. There were four of them for props, and he took one!
I love how all the employees who look at the burning building all look more or less low-key satisfied, not shocked at all. :D
Yup they all get severance :)
2:17 That lady at the bottom left is like "Hmph. Fuck yeah. Finally."
Milton having the stapler in his hand as he walks away would have been comedy gold!
Yeah but they needed to find it in the rubble to give a reason to cut to where he was now.
Stapler AND a piece if cake iykyk
30 Second Bunnies did that in their adaptation. “It’s red and I need it!”
this should be required viewing for corporate management.
.... they wouldn't get it. Hell half the time management in these companies will repost that shitty cringe meme of that TPS scene, using it as a way to remind you to submit your time sheets or whatever, with no sense of irony or self-awareness of what they're spoofing or what Office Space was even about.
@@chunkmcbeefnob717 the horror.
if management suffered any of the consequences of the decisions they do and Don't make, then they would care about the health and wellbeing of their workers.
They have a business class in management dedicated for this. Organizational Behavior... lets just say the material doesn't stick as well, and the concepts can become dry. They shouod show this movie tho, it fits in line with the entire class. 8 plus weeks of material in 1 hour a 30 min...
Royal Mail in the UK treats the staff terribly
i love how Peter packs for jail like he's going to summer camp
Astounding the way Stephen Root subjugated himself so masterfully to play this part. He was just coming off playing the big boss on News Radio, and really every other project before that. He always played executives, bosses, rich assholes, etc. At first I didn’t even realize it was him in this film. I’m not ever gonna get over that. I mean he stole this film from everybody in it. Brilliant actor.
He's pure genius, his bit part in "The Ballad of Buster Scruggs" was just perfect!
@@johnussss I came here to say that. Absolutely brilliant. The first time I watched it, I busted out laughing when the camera panned to him. I knew it was gonna be good!
Been watching Barry on HBO (award winning show in my opinion) just realized that he is Fuches. Moreover he plays Bill from King of the Hill along many other roles I didn’t know about.
Big fan of his after finding all this out today lol
@Super Nostalgia grow up!
@SuperNostalgia. Bad news friend. Jesus reported you as a stalker. He says you guys have never even met and please just leave him and his family alone.
Fun fact, red swingline staplers did not exist; they were always black. This movie convinced them to make them, after popular demand due to the movie
They did not even have one for the movie, props dept. had to paint one.
That really is a fun fact. Me and my dad loved this movie, gotta fill him in
this is such good news, now I can give my boss shit for not understanding the joke when I made fun of their red swingline stapler.
I have one of the red swinglines and it is so badass. Lol if you have to use a stapler often, this one is killer. He was right to get it back
@@austinmetcalf7505 agreed. I bought one for my classroom. It's built like a tank, really heavy duty compared to cheap plastic staplers.
This movie is pure gold.
💯
Honestly one of the most diverse actors out there.
It was so cool seeing him in no country for old men
Awesome in justified
I've only seen him in this movie and no country for Old men, but I am surprised by his acting chops, it's a shame he hasn't been in anything recent as far as I know
he was in get out like 4 years ago
@@smellypatel5272 he's in Barry, a show on hbo Max with Bill hader.
And there you have it.. Hot the Red Stapler become so popular.. As it never existed. They paint one Red for the movie..But the company got so many calls for a Red One.. They started producing them. Their most popular Stapler to this day....
My favorite color is green. Can I have a green st-st-stuh-stuh-stapler?
That "Hey Peter" was so warm and sentimental. Perfect delivery
Honestly, Stephen Root is one of the most underrated comedians ever! He is fucking hilarious in everything he's been in!
Love Stephen Root, and he's great in Barry, one of the few times you get to see him play something of a villain and he's really good at it
Got dang it BILL!
I used to work with a guy like him. He just got fired last week for talking to himself and making threats. The companies walls are made out of concrete.
@James F Never said he was. The movie shows that in the workplace you have crazy co workers. Not all are bad but I don't want to work with a guy that talks about kidnapping woman and killing them. Get that.
I once worked with an imbicile who claimed he would " bomb assistant managers" homes. He got fired a couple of months after that for purposefully putting his arm through a glass window and breaking it...all while tearing up his arm. His elevator didn't quite ever reach the top.😏
@@mayhemjr.803 Yeah cool story. Shame he never went through with it. The bombing I mean.
@@chunkmcbeefnob717 he was a stupid kid
@@chunkmcbeefnob717 believe it or not that kid's name was Marvin....not Milton like in Office Space. Ironic huh?😂🤣
They fired him, so he fire'd the company.
They didn't even fire him. They just stopped paying him.
@@booneshow1863Not so fast there, Professor. He was layed off five years ago and through a glitch in the system he kept getting paychecks. We just went ahead and fixed the glitch. It'll work itself out.
And using him for free labor
Men destroy the printer, legends burn the whole shit down.
Gotta love classic music playing over a burning building
This was a fantastic movie, and it has a personal connection for me, as I worked for a software company in the same building where this was filmed.
may i ask? how did your coworkers feel about the movie being at your company
@@circleinforthecube5170 I wasn't working there when this was filmed, but I believe only the outside shots of the building were filmed there. The rest of the movie was probably filmed in a studio.
My favourite writer Mark Fisher discusses this movie at length when discussion Capitalism.
So how'd the fire go ?
I remember being in 6th grade bragging in school about how my uncle took me to see an R rated movie. My teacher pulled me aside, looked at me straight in the eyes super serious and said “all those funny things can get someone fired or arrested” 😂😂
Well at least she was being truthful.
@Bold One what if it was a male teacher? They're not only women lol
@@willjoyce5013 go back to sleep bub
@@swampduck2609 no thanks
@Bold One Was the teacher wrong? No. If the parents have a problem with how the school is run they can switch schools or homeschool.
Milton is the quiet hero we all need.
i love how milton checks for cameras when he enters lumberg’s office 0:42
It is his stapler though.
I doubt that's what he was doing. The man is confused. Checking the room for anything except cameras lmao
I think the main reason this movie was so great is everybody can identify with someone in this film. But the middle management jerks are too real.
I was a middle manager for a year… and that was it. I demoted myself als I hated being an asshold who had to Harass people for nonsense
Some people just want to watch the world burn and then their was Milton.
Milton didn't want to watch the world burn, just that building in particular 😆
*there
@@juliusraben3526 big brain time
@@AlyssaTaylor9 That's why I said then their was Milton lol.
Milton was the unexpected hero of the film
The author Rothfuss said "fear the wrath of a gentle man". The meekest people truly do snap the hardest.
wish he'd finish the damn trilogy. It's supposed to release this year but I've heard that for a decade
Every low-ranking male is unhappy with his status, because status is what ultimately attracts women.
You have no idea of the meaning of the word 'meek', so don't use it.
@@GaryM67-71 from Oxford Dictionary. Meek: [adjective] "quiet, gentle, and easily imposed on; submissive"
Milton is meek
i thought it was "beware the fury of a quiet man"; either way, yours still applies.
@2:49 that is the face of the happiest man in the world lol.
He avoided being a very bad person and Micheal and Samir didn’t have to go to a federal pound me prison
He kinda looked like Homelander smiling when they cheered how he killed that one angry fan who called him fascist
I asked for no salt on my margarita and they put salt on my margarita I could shut this place down you know
Big grains of salt
I... I could put strychnine in the guacamole dip...
The culprit always stays or returns to the scene of the crime! Milton 😆
Word has it that Peter’s Corn Hole is doing great to this day.
When I first saw this movie, I wasn't yet in the corporate world, but now I completely understand, and I am saddened that it is more relevant today than ever.
Milton's spirit animal is Beavis 😂🔥🔥🔥
The funniest thing as that I had a really shitty job as a dialysis technician, where they bullied and took advantage of me for over a decade. Now, in The South, you don't wear a confederate flag in a semblance of defiance anymore, so, I took one of my contractor caps with the velcro backing for morale patches, and I found the perfect patch. It has a picture of a red swingline stapler on it and read, "Come And Take It!" underneath! What made it even more significant is that I was a guy named Peter working under an endless line of Bill Lumbergs!
Have a good day, Peter!
How did they bully you exactly
@@TimmyTheTinman Mostly trash talking about me to our patients and trying to always get me into trouble.
STEPHEN ROOT ONE OF MY ALL TIME FAVORITE CHARACTER ACTORS
I’m an information security professional… the fact that one fire got Peter off the hook and destroyed this business is a perfect reason why they were doomed from the start. No disaster recovery plan, no business continuity plan, no data backups offsite, and no accounting metrics to keep track of Peter’s wrongdoings.
Doomed to fail at the first issue like this.
This was 1999 that didnt exist
It's a movie
Its called suspension of disbelief
It's still a pretty cool comment that tells me (as an uninformed adolescent) a bit more about how the real world works.
I'm glad you posted it
@@flaviusaetius5701 cloud storage didn’t exist. Offsite backups and disaster contingency plans certainly did.
The man is constantly on the edge of a nervous breakdown 😩
Just for the record, Stephen Root is an amazing actor.
"It's a Swingline..." And Milton still needs his piece of cake!
Milton is Bill Dautrive after a life-altering fight with bees.
He should have called me!
@@rustyshackleford2703
*cough* How long was I out for?
@@manifestgtr 🖤
I love these 80s style eye glasses. Sure the technology has evolved immensely, I'm sure these suck for people who need them in comparison to newer ones, but the style and sheer *size* of the lenses is bangin.
Technology allowed for smaller more "fringe" styles to become affordable. Other than that, some people still prefer large frames as they give you great peripheral vision.
@@taoliu3949 Nice. I think I'll have the huge ones when I finally need them. Like ones a Japanese business man would wear in the 80s.
@@Light-Rock97 It'll be difficult to source them today though as they're not in style. Also, depending on the material they can be heavy. That's why they weren't popular.
@@taoliu3949 I tried a pair of silver ones once, light and thin, but had the nice shape I like. I thought about getting some for fashion but I heard of too many people screwing their vision doing that.
Ive got bad vision and wear contacts but I've been slowly getting bigger and bigger frames so I can go to the store and ride my bike and my gf says I look like a bug
Glorious day to begin with for Peter. That smile is priceless.
3 rules in cinema
Never mess with John wicks dog
Never get the Gremlin wet
AND ALWAYS return Miltons stapler
That and always pay your employees on time especially Milton lol
And always get enough cake for all your employees.
I am surprised that he did not burn down the building much earlier.
Someone else mentioned in another video that Milton is the only one who is actually doing any work. Nobody else in the movie is seen doing any actual work and Milton isn't even an employee...
Stephen Root's most memorable role...
How did he not win any award for it is beyond me.
@@nicoleackerman205 It was a box office flop.
@@r-w-r Have you seen what they nominate now.
2nd most memorable only to Bill from King of the Hill.
Stephen Root is my favorite actor. He can do it all, and do it WELL.
I think back on the decades of Stephen Root being a genius actor, and I'm really, really happy.
Just a quick few to mull over, "News Radio", "Office Space".. "King of the Hill" as Bill Dautrieve and Buck Strickland, "Oh Brother Where Art Though?", "Boardwalk Empire", "No Country For Old Men"", "Barry", there are many more.
Yes, I do own a red Swingline stapler.
I would do the same if I didn't get my stapler back and not getting my fair share of cake. Cheers for Milton I love this guy.
Okay, at 01:01...how many of you lived in an apartment complex where your entrance looked exactly like this??? I'm 53 years old, and I've lived many apartments and in many different houses, but I most definitely lived in an apartment that looked just like this when I moved out of my parents house!
Yes this looks exactly like the complex I lived in North Austin. I think they filmed this in Austin if I’m not mistaken.
I collected trash for at least 3 apartment complexes that looked exactly like that when I work for a trash collecting company
@@karief5980 Lived in Bouldin Creek, exact same. They were probably all built by the same outfit.
I've never lived in an apartment complex that looked like that because I am not black
If people are confused about why they are warned about the quiet kids, just show them this.
“… and there was garbage on it.”
😂
I love the smile that spreads across Peter's face when he puts two and two together
Milton got the Superman III money, yet was not able to retrieve the red stapler.
The song that was playing is, "Shoo Fly Pie and Apple Pan Dowdy" published in 1945.
In a deleted scene, Lawrence says "Don't come home in a dress dude!"
probably a good idea to keep that out lmfao
It's in the credits, so not exactly deleted
😂 they should have kept that in.
All you had to do is give the man his stapler back but you wouldn’t listen
He has every right to become a villian
Well he got rid of the cockroach problem!
dude, seriously, the whole cast is phenomenal but i think he was true mvp of the film
All fires in movies are smokeless.
With the lawsuit they were probably going to face from Milton for firing him via glitch fix, three hundred grand and an insurance write off fire probably did the company a favour
That's what you people get for neglecting one of your workers, you take his stapler, you put him in the basement, and you don't let him have cake, so he decides to burn the office down, so good job on not letting him do anything.
Milton finally gets a paycheck
I had a few office jobs before deciding to become a grown up. I can confirm that everything in this movie is true!
hence why i decided long ago 2 stick wit blue collar work tbh- u able to stay physically active, no worries of suffering weirdass psychological n emotional abuse from management, u allowed 2 b jokingly racist n sexist wit ur coworkers lol, etc
@@TimmyTheTinman Yeah....ummm....I'm going to need you to stop being a crybaby, so if you could dry those tears, that would be great. Mmmkay?
Milton is the main protagonist of every movie ever
"Never rub another man's stapler" - Milton
“We fixed the glitch, so he won’t be receiving a paycheck anymore. These things will just work themselves out…”
Well, you’re right about that one Bob.
2:22, I always imagine MIlton saying to the Asian lady in the glasses
"This is what you get for not passing me that slice of cake."
Milton pick up the envelope from the floor, you can see it in his feet when he walks inside Lumberg office.
He does pick it up: the end credits scene shows Milton sipping drinks on a tropical beach.
Milton is a so fun and brings life to the Movie. I love him and his Red Swingline Stapler. He will burn down Intech to reprocess that very Red Swingline Stapler. It's the one thing he keeps close to his heart and soul.
Bye Milton! Have a nice trip at my expense! Hahaha!
Peter knows it was Milton
"Okay, but...that's the last straw..."
Hands-down, one of my top three favorite comedies!
From the first day he was drawn, Milton promised to do this, and bless him he made good on that promise. 🔥
This final scene crossed my mind many times while working for an oppressive company long time ago.
This is one of those movies that is on my (watch once a year) list.
That 1920’s upbeat jazz music when the building was burning down was funny 😂
2:45
Even his hair was so happy that it fixed itself.
Well, they DID tell him to fix the cockroach problem...
I was born the year this movie was made and I recently watched it and its both one of the most funny relatable movies i've ever seen and also makes me so unbelievably depressed that this was made in the fuckin 90s when things were supposed to be different. I know theres a lot of movies that came out in 99 showing like how mundane life was and how people wanted more, but I feel like I still have the same thing just toppled along with a growing global dread.
I have to say, I'm Milton at my work right now. Have been for two years. Or more. Just one insult after another. For 5 years now to the point where it became bullying and it broke me mentally and where I really feel like I don't have almost any dignity left. Not any I think.
I took it, because I need the money, couldn't find another job, or maybe could, but I honestly didn't want to give the bullies the satisfaction, because I would need to downgrade a lot probably and they would take pleasure in that. It's my own fault to a degree I can't get a better job...but man, this current one and the insults and how frequent and overwhelming they became and how it destroys you mentally...
Don't wish this on anyone to be honest...
That's... fucked up. I'm sorry I can't offer you anything besides that. Hope you find a less soulcrushing job at some point.
That smile.of Peter 😅
He knows what he’s doing; 0:45, checking for cameras.
I have to admit... Not just for Peter's sake, but it was kind of satisfying seeing that office burn.
"Watch out for your cornhole, bud."....maybe the best advice ever!
Never mess with a man and his stapler ... especially if his name is Milton ... you have been warned
Lumberg apparently underestimated Milton´s limitations!
It's my stapler, the Swingline
Milton burned the office down after so …
But it was deserved
Name of show : office space
I love how Peter knows Milton did it and just smiles
We all need a Milton in our lives
Every underpaid workers dream!
As someone that can relate the him this is one of the most Satisfying endings I have ever seen.
Anyone notice Peters hair how it was changed from one scene to another as he was watching Milton?
Yeah..fine continuity
Peter was getting ready to take the fall for the whole setup. That’s a friend.
And always have enough cake for all your employees…this is the 2nd time Milton was passed.
