Looks like somebody’s about to have a case of the Mondays. Todd Duffey, who played Chotchkie’s waiter Brian in the 1999 comedy Office Space, just lost a lawsuit against 20th Century Fox Film over the use of his face in merchandise.
The piece in question is part of a box set called the “Office Space Box of Flair”, which includes a 32-page book and 15 “flair” buttons, a reference to the pieces of flair that Jennifer Aniston’s character is required to wear by her boss at Chotchkie’s restaurant. Duffey claims they took the joke too far by putting...

Can an actor lose rights over his own face? Well, it just happened on Thursday. Todd Duffey, who portrayed the minor character of "Chotchkie's Waiter" in Office Space, sued 20th Century Fox Film over a licensing deal that ushered in an odd piece of merchandise -- a box set called the Office Space Box of Flair, which included a 32-page book and 15 "flair" buttons. The merchandise references a scene in the Mike Judge film where Jennifer Aniston's character is told by her boss at a restaurant that she is required to wear at least 15 pieces of "flair." Duffey

In Office Space, the 1999 Fox film written and directed by Mike Judge, a restaurant named Chotchkie's is featured where workers are required to wear at least 15 pieces of "flair," or round buttons pinned to the uniform. In the movie, the characters despise this forced attempt at self-expression -- "You know, the Nazis had pieces of flair that they made the Jews wear," remarks the film's protagonist. But thanks to the film's enduring cult, "flair" has become fashionable in a sort of ironic way. Or so one book publisher hoped. Now, Todd Duffey, who portrayed the minor

H. P. Lovecraft was no fan of the cinema.
In a 1933 letter to poet Richard Morse (quoted in the book Lurker in the Lobby: A Guide to the Cinema of H. P. Lovecraft), he wrote:
"I shall never permit anything bearing my signature to be banalised and vulgarised into the flat, infantile twaddle which passes for 'horror tales' amongst radio and cinema audiences."
One can only imagine the venom that would have flowed from Lovecraft's pen had he seen The Last Lovecraft: Relic of Cthulhu. Writer/actor/producer Devin McGinn's heart was in the right place, but this attempt to merge Lovecraftian horror with Shaun of the Dead humor fails miserably.
The film opens with Cthulhu cultists finding one part of the key that will open the gates of R'lyeh.
