TGIF: Hollywood Thinks People At Work Equal Comedy

The summer movie swing has kicked into high gear. Hollywood gave us the next installment of a wizard movie series, an early dose of superhero and a pair of intergalactic prequels.

What's next on the menu?

A pair of work-place related movies that us working stiff are supposed to relate to.

First there's director/writer Mike Judge's new film Extract.



You may remember Mike Judge from the immortal work-place film classic Office Space. This time he's tackling a more industrial work place.

Look for the movie in theaters September 4, Labor Day Weekend, for a good close out to the summer movie season.

Next is the tale of a used car dealership in The Goods: Live Hard, Sell Hard.



Okay, car sales may be a different breed than other sales positions. But this comedy looks hard-hitting and laugh-out-loud funny.

This will come out August 14, so check that out in a few weeks.
