What if The Office was a crime thriller?

by Bob Sassone, posted Jan 26th 2007 6:59PM

The OfficeAh, the people of the internets are endlessly clever. In the tradition of recut trailers such as Brokeback To The Future comes The Office...if it was a crime thriller instead of a Must-See comedy.

My favorite parts: the slow motion shot of Jim in the rear view mirror, Dwight and Ryan out in the empty field, and Kevin saying "My God, what have I done?" They should have ended it with Dwight saying "you're dead" though, instead of the gunshot.

I guess TV shows and movies can look like anything you want them to be. It's all in the editing. I want to see The Wire done as a wacky sitcom.

Curt - the barn and field scenes are from The Initiation, earlier this season. Dwight takes Ryan to the Schrute Beet Farm and he and his cousin Mose try to haze Ryan.

Which episode did the barn and farm clips in that come from? Did I miss one, because I thought I'd seen em all...

I love these recuts. Brokeback to the Future still my favorite to date.

@Dan,

That was a great find! I remember seeing a similar one for Deadwood, which is equally as good.

That's nearly as good as the Dumb & Dumber re-cut trailer in horror style. Hilarious find, thanks for sharing.
