I don't have stats on how common it is IRL but I figured these filmmakers liked it so much bc you can film in garages without a permit

Anyway it's draining having to watch and rate a bunch of horror/thriller shorts w nearly identical scenes of parking garage rape/murder

Anyway, that said, if I could delete just one sexist trope from amateur short films it wouldn't be that one

It would be the one where the whole short film is a dinner date and the guy wins over the girl by being Radically Honest about himself

Office Space itself is a good movie but man is it responsible for a legion of copycat crimes

Office Space to some degree earns the right to have a dude just yell about how work is bullshit but it'd still prolly be better w less of it

Like even in that big cathartic rant it has Jennifer Aniston point out he's being a hyperbolic asshole w his Holocaust comparison
