Idiocracy just keeps proving itself to be a time traveler’s documentary instead of a work of fiction.
Yeah… The more you laugh, the more it’s a sour laugh.
As a millennial who has worked in an office for the last 17 years, Office Space just doesn’t miss. Gets better every time I see something that should be satire happen at work.
Click (2006). Though I still disagree about skipping through work. I’d love to have a remote to speed through the day for work.
But everywhere else, I understand the message. Take time to enjoy each moment, even the dull ones. I tear up at the last scenes with his dad played by Henry Wrinkler. I remember my dad and the times I was frustrated with him and the situation he was in near his end. I remember how I too said things I regret even if I did apologize and he did forgive me. That scene in the office kills me every time.
I’ve mentioned it before but About Time.
When it came out my Mum had been dead 15+ years and my Dad had developed a few health issues. It left me a right mess.
Then I watched it 5 or so years later when my Dad had was increasingly infirm and it wrecked me. Even though I thought it wouldn’t hit me as hard because I knew what I was getting into.
Now he’s gone and I don’t think I can ever watch it again, although I did buy the DVD, possibly to troll my future self.
If I was a parent, I’d now also be very aware that the roles have reversed and they’d now be in the position I was first in when I initially saw the film and so the cycle continues.
This movie’s message is powerful. Quite unexpected for what starts as a typical romcom
