How is the classic and hilarious Office Space the least guessed answer? If you haven't seen the movie, you should!

It took me a while to figure out because the clues weren't clicking in my head properly. If it mentioned the printer destroying scene, then I definitely would have gotten it. But then again, that might be too easy...

Hard to fit "printer destroying scene" in a haiku.

Not really. “Destroying printer” is five syllables.

It kind of does reference the printer destroying scene with the "PC Load Letter" clue. Although "Federal Prison" isn't really a good clue.

This is a perfect example of a quiz that takes infinitely longer to write than it does to take. I admire the hard work.

Anybody else thought Shaun of the dead? I am not sure at what point zombies are considered fast though (and haven't see the movie mentioned in the quiz so cant compare)

typed 28 days instead of 28 days later.... was wondering why it wouldn't work. Turns out I had a Sandra Bullock Film about rehab

Not really. Especially since Grease came out about 20 years before the clue's date.

And? Casablanca came more than 70 years before the clue's date.

So... it also couldn't be Casablanca? Especially since neither Grease nor Casablanca feature nasty plastic cliques? I'm not sure what you're not seeing here, man.
