Ten Years On, It Still Feels Good to Be a Gangster

Office Space celebrates 10 years with a shindig at the Paramount

Nobody paid much notice when ten years ago, Mike Judge's locally made Office Space opened and closed in theatres in the blink of an eye. A lot came happen in ten years, though, and the cult hit that won't quit is now getting a fancy Blu-Ray release on Feb. 3 and – can we get an "O" face? – a big anniversary/reunion screening at the Paramount Theatre on Sunday, Feb. 8, as presented by SXSW and Fantastic Fest. Judge will most definitely be in attendance, as will select – and as yet undisclosed – members of the cast. (Ron Livingston: You can Post-It note us any day of the week.)

Tickets go on sale at noon this Thursday, Jan. 15, but for 2009 SXSW and Fantastic Fest badgeholders only. The general public will have a shot at 'em starting at noon on Saturday, Jan. 17 at the Paramount box office or online at gettix.net. There are also a limited number of VIP tickets available. For more info, check out sxsw.com or fantasticfest.com.
