If you are one of those that fell in love with Office Space you are probably interested in hearing that Mike Judge has made another movie called "Extract" that is in the same mold. This time it appears that the focus is on a small business owner/manager played by Jason Bateman as the "everyman".
It looks like Judge has been able to ditch the discount moving boxes for his actors and has gotten himself some decent names for this one as well. Bateman already mentioned , along with Mila Kunis, Ben Afflack, and even an appearance by Gene Simmons of KISS.
Extract seems to follow the same formula of Office Space in that it is a workplace comedy that likely deals with the stereotypes associated with working in as a mangaer, and as an employee. Most reviewers say that it isn't as funny as Office Space, but I consider Office Space one of my top 5 favorite comedies ever having wokred in a cube before. So I guess it is worth a shot to see since he has always made me laugh all the way back to Beavis and Butthead.
