Wondering how many INTPs have seen the movie and could relate to the protagonist's "Dream of doing nothing".

Once the 'dream of doing nothing' is achieved the dream of doing something occurs. On the whole we're a pretty miserable and unsatisfied species.

Great movie though.

The printer scene is hilarious; I love when they have to pull him off as he continues to pummel the hardware.

Even though he stated it as his "dream of doing nothing", I think his real goal was just doing whatever he wanted and having no obligations.

I could never do "nothing" either, except maybe a good hour or two of daydreaming every day.

Haha, when the guy broke free and hit it one last time. Classic

I think daydreaming in the office is really a boring thing. Why don't we do business for yourself. Don't be trapped by movies such as corrosion of the heart of our struggle of a better life.

I suppose I can understand the desire to do nothing, but for myself doing nothing -> boredom -> existential loathing -> suicide.

Nothing changed for Milton. The waiter who brought the drink ignored him and walked away.
