WELCOME BACK, REFINERS!! IT'S TIME FOR MORE "ORIGINS" FUN!!
This week, we're starting the breakdown of a 1999 comedy that was a huge influence on Dan Erickson and his creation of "Severance". It's the hilarious "Office Space" from Mike Judge. We'll get deep into the inner workings of Initech, what it can mean if you improperly cover a TPS report and just how bad a boss COULD be. It may not be the Severed Floor...but you'd have to agree, it's a pretty f-ed up way to make a living.
Not only was "Office Space" an inspiration...we even uncover the log-line for "Severance." This movie may have been more like a guide to young Daniel. So, Refiners, it's time to plug in and unwind. Let's witness the wit and wisdom of Lumberg, Milton and Lawrence as "Severed: Origins" goes deep with "Office Space."
