Mike Judge

Just recently, I had the chance to participate in a brief round-table interview with writer/director Mike Judge, creator of "Office Space," "Beavis and Butt-Head" and "King of the Hill." He was in town to promote his latest comedy "Extract," and here's the most important stuff we talked about.

Describing "Extract," which opened nationwide last week and stars Jason Bateman, Mila Kunis and Ben Affleck, Judge said, "It’s like 'Office Space' but this time it’s sympathetic to the boss, the guy who owns the place."

Review: “Extract”

DateSunday, September 6, 2009 at 3:21PM | By AuthorFranck Tabouring

G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra

Seen on: August 12, 2009

The players: Director: Mike Judge Writer: Mike Judge, Cast: Jason Bateman, Mila Kunis, Kristen Wiig, Ben Affleck, J. K. Simmons

Facts of interest: Mike Judge also directed "Office Space" and created "Beavis and Butthead."

The plot: Joel (Jason Bateman) is an extract plant owner who's having big problems at home and at work.

Our quick thoughts: Mike Judge, creator of “Office Space,” returns to the big screen with “Extract,” a deliciously funny comedy about a desperate white-collar guy who just doesn’t know how to handle his troubles at home and at work.

Jason Bateman in Mike Judge's Extract

In case you missed them, here are two funny clips from Mike Judge's new comeody "Extract." I'm not really allowed to share my full review you quite yet, but what I can say is that this one's really hilarious. Judge fans should be able to easily appreciate the humor in "Extract," and I can only recommend you check it out when it opens Sept. 4, 2009.

Starring Jason Bateman in the lead role, the film follows an extract factory owner who's having a whole lot of trouble at work and at home. Mila Kunis, David Koechner, Dustin Milligan, Kristen Wiig, Clifton Collins Jr., Matt Schulze, J.K. Simmons and Ben Affleck co-star. It's a great cast, and you'll love the characters they're portraying.

Ben Affleck is in final talks to join Jason Bateman, Clifton Collins Jr., Mila Kunis and Kristen Wiig in Mike Judge's upcoming comedy "Extract," Variety reported earlier today.

The film follows the misadventures of a flower extract factory owner (Bateman) who's having trouble at work and at home. Affleck takes over the role of a lawyer, while Collins plays a factory worker who loses a body part in an accident.
