Saw Idiocracy in 2008 and laughed my ass off at an incredible comedy movie. Saw it again in 2018, and laughed even harder when I realized it was a prophecy. An amazing movie from a comedy genius.
I can't help but think...When we watched that in 2006/7/8 etc. were we like what people were like when Orwell was going at it? Like, yeah, great idea, that'll never happen... 10-15 years later: "uhhh, Orwell is a prophet?"
I watched this movie for my first time in Iraq, then I came back to the states and realized how much he nailed it. Spend time away from modern society, when you come back you see the mass hallucination
AAAAAAHHHHH!!!! PAAAAAIIIINNNN!!!!!! I broke my hand yesterday because of the hate comments I get all the time. I was so angry that I punched a hole in my computer. Please don't hate me, dear qron
I remember seeing Idiocracy on Showtime back in what must have been early 2007. I just remember being shocked that such a new movie was on Showtime on demand. I was the first person in my group of friends and relatives to have seen it and I was also the one who introduced it to everyone. That was the only time that I found a gem that early on and had the privilege to show it to other people that had no clue what it was. We still quote lines from it to this day, 16 years later.
The reason he's so cautious about being proud of the movie is that the studio shit all over while it was being made. The problem in test screenings (and in the box office release) is that a lot of dumb people didn't understand the whole thing was satire, they just thought it was an extra dumb movie. That's what he means by "difficult to market."
I rented “Idiocracy” from Netflix back when they were still sending DVDs through the mail. I was a huge fan of Mike Judge and couldn’t wait to see the movie. Some reviewer had written something about it being a dystopian black comedy, similar to Woody Allen’s “Sleeper” and that made me want to see it even more. Quiet Sunday afternoon. Bottle of beer. Kicked back on the sofa. Ready to laugh my myself silly. Nothing could prepare me for the absolute horror and utter depression of the soul that was/is “Idiocracy”.
I didn't see it in the theatre, but when I saw it on DVD, I thought it was one of the funniest things I've ever seen. You always wonder with a comedy how funny it's going to be. It was so well written, and cast, and directed, and acted. It was very well done. Definitely one of the best comedy movies I've ever seen. Feel bad that so many corporations and our government missed that it was satire, and not meant to be used as a blueprint.
I dont think it was in theaters. I remember watching it at a house party on mute. I was a drunk teenager, just sat down and it was on like idk HBO or something. I remember watching the opening evolution scene and then looking around the room at other dumb drunk teenagers and being overcome with serious sadness.
@@newfreenayshaun6651 I think it did make it to some theatres, though perhaps not a wide release. The thing is, so many movies these days, if it's not a big hit the first weekend, it's usually gone by the second.
Office space and Idocricay are 2 movies I can watch over and over. It is a shame he doesn't make more movies, the stories he makes are so unique and relatable.
I was 16-17 when office space played on HBO in 1999... Funniest damned thing... and my buddies said "it sounds dumb" now they show their "flair" for it ... But seriously mike judge is a pillar of modern day society. Beavis and Butthead, king of the hill, office space, Idiocracy.... 4 properties that are amazing and regardless most people could quote something from one of them... he litteraly helped shape modern american society...
"making total of of something while also accurately portraying how it is at the same time." That's called "satire." You're the master of circumlocution.
@marydestefano9487 I believe they meant accurately as in authentic/genuine. It is still satire, but most satire often shys away from a more mundane portrayal opting to be more hyperbolic.
Idiocracy is a masterpiece that gave me the same "What if" feeling that the Matrix gave me. To be honest this film ended up predicting the future in a fairly accurate manner lol.
Most movies do. That’s how the elites introduce the real things happening in the world. If they released stuff like that on the news people panic. Release stuff like that in movies that “aren’t real” people get intrigued and love it. It amazes me how well the government has trained us. Smh 🤦♂️
I saw an interview with Mike Judge where he said the studio didn't like the finished product because they made fun of so many corporate sponsors in it and that was one of the main reasons why it wasn't promoted properly.
@@mightisright weellllll I saw it at MGM Grand in Conroe, TX which is an hour north of Houston. Can I even tell you how much popcorn I had for further proof?
Sadly, grass lawns are a huge environmental disaster for the United States and any country that struggles with water issues, not to mention all of the idiotic toxic chemicals that homeowners spray on their water-consuming lawns.
"we had 65 speaking parts and then you realise you have to cast all of those people" - and cast you did, to perfection! Not a single dud casting in the entire movie - every single cameo and extra was brilliant!
I have said this so many times ... I'm always telling people that this movie was preparing us for the narrative we are now living 😱 . Literally, this and the book 1984. I've gone so far as to ponder on Orwell, being the Fabian he was, having put that book out as a narrative that was to come to fruition in the year of the coded title. Everyone thinks 1984 was projected 40 yrs earlier than it really happened (present times). I think more that we've been there since then and they laugh at us because we can't even realize it
Wow its crazy to see how disappointed mike is/was with that movie.. this is easily hands down top 3 funniest movies ever made bc you see elements in actual society every day. Take more pride in idiocracy mike! Its definitely considered a cult classic at this point
Im a swede born in 84 and Mike Judges genius has been with me from the age of 10 and on to this day. Everything from Beavis and butthead to idiocracy and Silicon Valley. No other single person has ever created that kind of quality with such consistency over such a long time… with such a fundamental allure to all ages of myself. Mind blowing!
@D Legionnaire Yeah..."infinite" is sooo big, though.. However big you can imagine...the biggest enormity your 3 pound brain can fathom....isn't even a DENT in infinity. Yo', INFINITY is BIGGER than Big! Enormous.. Gargantuan...Super-Massive... Colossal...Huge... Humungous..! ...they're all miniscule next to INFINITY.
Mike Judge is a legend and is up there with Matt Stone and Trey Parker in creating satirical comedy. I highly recommend the Cinemax Series "Mike Judge presents: Tales From the Tour Bus". It's an animated docu-series, that delves into the stories of musics greatest legends. It's a series so full of humour, tragedy, and music and I can not recommend it enough.
I feel his pain. Idiocracy was a movie that had so potential as a premise, and it always felt like it was done with a lackluster budget. What he is saying about his test screening make sense. It was really smart and it's a universe that I would like explored more in depth
I've always wished there would be a sequel, not sure (!) what would happen in that. People often mention the story "The Marching Morons" in connection with this movie. In that story, the few smart people who run everything secretly (and they obviously exist here, what with the airplanes and other evidence of complex technical manufacture) decide to kill all the stupid people! They make a plan and do it. This doesn't come up as much as you would think. I think Joe would have to meet these people in a further adventure. They are obviously there! There is broadcasting, electricity, aircraft, shoulder-fired missiles, that hospital (it doesn't help Joe much, but if you had been stabbed or were having a baby there was a button to push, something would happen I guess)... Somewhere there are Engineers, Technicians, a professor or two and some kind of educational system. It might not be a secret, it might be something that nobody notices or cares about any more. It's hard to get people interested in books NOW!
It mocked poor/dumb people and more than anything mocked a lot of recognizable corporations (Starbucks, Carl's Jr, Costco, fudruckers, etc) so fox was not too eager about releasing this one in theaters.
"They cut the effects budget.... but the paid to make the movie... so I'm grateful." What a pro. They sabotaged the movie's production and buried its release, Judge says nice things about them.
I love Mike Judge! Such a gem of a human being. Idiocracy is seriously my favorite movie of all time. A true classic and one of the truest depictions of society ever portrayed.
Idiocracy was written before trump even hinted at politics by the way, its fucking crazy even the writers were baffled and it got a lot of hate because people watched it and thought hey this is making fun of us. We truly live in a society
Mike Judge, I think that the bad experience of making the movie has skewed your perception of the impact, prescience, and entertainment of the movie. You made a before-its-time work of art that is hilarious and relevant and will be remembered long after you are gone. Thank you, you've done a brave, difficult and amazing thing and you owe it to yourself to acknowledge it.
It’s very scary knowing that the movie was done almos 20 years ago , and literally it’s exactly what’s happening now in days. We can laugh all we want and look the other way. But it’s here it’s happening now
When I was in 8th grade on our summer trip for school we went to the capital in Austin and we all got to meet Mike and the crew they were there at some building making a scene for the movie and the set was amazing it looked like a library that was abandoned 100s of years ago it was so cool to see in person how some of the movie was made.. Mike was a awesome person and took pictures with us and answered some questions about whatever all of us young kids were bugging him about lol not to mention we all loved him because of Beavis and Butthead!! It was like meeting your super hero lol!!
Talk About a "Legacy". In 2005 this movie accurately Predicted Smartphones (post-2009), Mass Surveillance, Trash TV overtaking normal Television. All 5-10 years before those things happened.
"Idiocracy" was a genius piece of filming. Never before and never again will a movie comedy NAIL current and future societal trends as dead on as this.
It's a great, hilarious movie, but if you look around yourself, it's really not that hard to notice a downward spiral, and it wasn't different back then either. We've been getting dumber and lazier for a long time now. Like they said, the script actually missed some of the biggest, most significant changes in society, like social media and cancel culture. At its core it basically comes down to "dumb people breed, smart people don't", which is obviously true, but it's not a mind-blowing revelation.
Devo nailed it way before and way better than Idiocracy. I love Mike Judge -- he distributed a film of mine when no one was interested -- but he screwed up a wonderful idea. If you can't tell from this interview, he knows it sucks. He should have done a Mel Gibson and paid for it with his own money. As it was, the script wasn't ready, there wasn't enough pre-production, it kind of lurched into production, and he was always behind the corporate 8-ball. The idea was brilliant and deserved way more time and care. As it is, only idiots think Idiocracy is a good film. Life imitates art. As our culture gets dumber, the more it appreciates Idiocracy. It helps morons feel smart. Devo's vision of de-evolution was spot-on and never understood or appreciated by morons.
Mike: Prophet of our times. Can't tell you thanks enough for both Office Space and Idiocracy... both of which are among my very favorite movies and get almost religious viewing on a routine basis. Deepest gratitude to you sir.
Comedy pays more. Same reason Dr. Ken quit medicine once the comedy career popped off. And doctors make a ton. Just like physics. But nothing compares to Hollywood money. Especially that cartoon money. If you make a cartoon that pops off, that's a never ending ATM.
I think in hindsight, this movie becomes more and more hilarious as we pass through time. Years go by, and the outrageousness of current society continues to elevate. I think that's why we are getting closer and closer to idiocracy being more of a nonfiction.
A while back, the Walmart near my house had the movie in the discount DVD rack. I bought 20+ copies for $3 a piece and gave them away for Xmas. Never had such positive feedback for a gift before. I did the same in later years when Way of the Gun was in the discount bin. I bought a bunch of them for $5 and gave them away for Christmas.
@@FancyPrimate never seen it but I have to now. Both sides are idiots, I hated seeing the right turn into conspiracy idiots. But I will always despise the lefties and the lunacy they stand by
It makes me a little sad that Mike wasn't happy with Idiocracy. I love this movie. If I see it on I'll stop whatever I'm doing and finish watching it. The cast was great. The idea of the deterioration of language is actually happening and it's scary.
I can kind of see why he might be unhappy about it. I love the movie but the cracks do show. They took his budget from him resulting in some really cheap looking CG at times. Not to mention some of the script woes. I love the film but it is definitely flawed and I could see why Mike may have disappointments with it
The language thing is actually really interesting. Throughout all of history, language has evolved. It’s only been through the mass homogenization of language, conditions under which it hasn’t been allowed to evolve as freely, that we perceive it to have devolved. Yet, we still find ways to make it our own. Interesting book by Guy Deutscher that touches on it
This film is timeless lol. Bought it and didn’t see it for a month till I got sick and watched it, the fever couldn’t even hold in my joy and laughter!
I ordered this movie from Amazon and while watching it I didn’t know whether to laugh, cry, or get angry. I spent 31+ years in American industry and wrote a book series about the decline and fall of the American work ethic. As a luxury vehicle modifier (conversion vans) and an assembly line worker (fire trucks) I worked with people who could not read on a high school level, could not read a simple tape measure, and honestly believed that 3/8ths was more than 3/4ths! Many times I was taken aside by crew leaders and supervisors and advised to “dumb down“ my language so that many of my coworkers could better understand me. During one production meeting when asked to share my thoughts I started off by saying “Well gentlemen , not to sound presumptuous -“ a coworker immediately cut in saying “There he goes again with them $100 dollar words!” Indeed many of my coworkers asked me “Why you gotta use them bigass words?!”
Crocs are actually very popular here in Argentina. Doctors and people who work in the food industry use them due to the amount of hours they have to be standing, they're very comfortable and they have a long lifespan. I've had three pairs in total over the years.
Crocs are popular everywhere. It’s amazing such a self proclaimed outdoorsman acts like he’s never seen a pair. Trashing them is just fellow kids nonsense.
when an organism gets the gall to think they are beyond nature's mercy and they assume they can just add some magical properties to their food sources and outsmart the natural order of the universe lol

I was a high school teacher and one year during a testing situation where they close the classes, a student brought in a video tape of Idiocracy to watch. I put it on and the students all loved it.

The premise - the starting ten minutes - is the most accurate and piercing piece of social commentary that exists on film. (Continually we have IVF/ART clients who repeat the lines from the film, completely unaware they are doing it) The only thing not to like about this film (along with Team America) was the creators' horrible experience producing them. But in a way I'm glad of it as guarantees there will never be a crap sequel that diminishes either of them
I remember following the news about this movie as it was being made. It was clear that people who knew thought there was something really great about it, and then it went through this multi-year saga just to get released in any capacity. Just for the studio to allow you to see it. Great work by Comedy Central airing this thing in the middle of the night so you could watch the whole thing.
Idiocracy is one of my favorite movies. It literally speaks volumes on how people act today. Basically, being smart is wrong, and being an idiot is right. It's a time we live when. People get all types of incentives for acting like an idiot. While being a smart, decent human being gets you nowhere these days.
The first time I watched Idiocracy it I thought it was okay, the next time it really hit me the genius of it. Mike’s “Tales from the tour bus” is also REALLY good. I was shocked when at the end of the Johnny Paycheck episode I found myself crying when his roadies where talking about him dying and Johnny singing the last song he wrote “An old Violin”. God, they did such an extraordinary job with that episode and several others. I can’t recommend it more 👍
The Billy Joe Shaver episode was epic too. But yeah.. I cried a little on the Johnny Paycheck episode. The one where Waylon Jennings tied George Jones to the tree in the backyard cracks me up every time.
@@jeremybertram5575 "I'm the king of country music!" . George Jones and that weird duck voice personality was bizarre. Thanks for all the shows Mr. Judge!
Judge seems to have been ahead of his time over his career and he got so robbed with Idiocracy in how it was so badly released and the lack of recognition. But as usual he got the last laugh really as he created a cult classic that people quickly picked up on after its release, much like Office Space
Low key one of the funniest and most interesting movies of the past several decades. All of Mike Judge's comedies he wrote and directed are gems - Office Space, Idiocracy and Extract. But the humor is somehow IDK too smart, too specific, to entertain your average Joe. Your average Joe just finds it weird and odd. But all those movies are smart, they're spot on and they're standing the test of time. You can watch Office Space even now, 20 plus years later, and it still works. And Idiocracy is just too underappreciated. That movie is actually turning out to be prophetic more and more with each passing decade. And it's thus a fun comedy, but it's also hilarious, poignant, unbelievable, sad and scary at the same time.
"Average Joe" ended up with the name Not Sure. The doctor flipping out that he didn't have a tattoo reminds me of people flipping out about someone not wearing a face diaper.
I work at a middle school and when they talked about the crocs becoming popular and putting pins on I almost died. All the kids today wear crocs with pins( called jibbits or something crazy and they are not cheap). These kids go nuts for them. I wish I came up with the idea. I have always said that kids today are like Neanderthals only with tictok. Great podcast especially the crocs part. Mike judge absolutely nailed that movie and must be a prophet. Sadly our society is becoming just as it was in idiocracy. Smart technology has made us incredibly lazy and stupid.
Neanderthals had bigger brains than Humans and were less war like and more peaceful, if they became the dominate species, the world maybe much more advance than we are now, who knows?
Joe Rogan makes fun of Croc shoes when sometimes he wears those goofy looking shoes that are like gloves for the feet, I think they're called Vibram. Croc's are better than flip flops becuse they supply some protection from stubbing ones toe, and they are easy to clean.
What's surprising is just how many people haven't seen it. I mean, it's pretty much become mainstream as a "cult classic" like Rocky Horror or Dungeons and Dragons (the game), but people just don't feel like it's worth watching. Instead, they stream reality shows about a bunch of disgusting sluts who work on a boat. But of course... the idiots make those big mediocre bucks. Imagine watching a moviue that's basically about how dumb you personally are. Would you watch that? I might, since I am personally aware of how dumb I am, but others aren't that aware and so to them it would be an insult. Never ever call a woman who had an abortion a baby killer. It's true, but since they are the Breeders of society, we have to pretend like it's not.
It is a funny movie but at the same time it is very scary when everyone around you is stupid that's the reason why third world Nations suck because the average IQ is severely low so there's a bunch of dumb people doing dumb things Stupid people are more dangerous for everyone involved than evil people because evil people are just pursuing their own Ambitions and goals

I was the first person in my group of friends and relatives to have seen it and I was also the one who introduced it to everyone. That was the only time that I found a gem that early on and had the privilege to show it to other people that had no clue what it was. We still quote lines from it to this day, 16 years later.
I watched it for the first time last week.
1. It's funny af.
2. It was way ahead of its time.
3. It's soooooo accurate.
It is not a movie. It is a documentary... Look at who is President and who the democrats have as a replacement candidate... Not the smartest.
The reason he's so cautious about being proud of the movie is that the studio shit all over while it was being made. The problem in test screenings (and in the box office release) is that a lot of dumb people didn't understand the whole thing was satire, they just thought it was an extra dumb movie. That's what he means by "difficult to market."
That's incredible. I really wish he'd slipped in a joke about that in the film
I'm not sure how you know that but yes, that is absolutely fact.
I remember watching it as a kid on the television and seeing it as a horror film, basically like being stuck in a nightmare you can't wake up from.
The Wizard of Oz is a satire as well

Thats because Feminism ruins everything it touches from being better.
@@WaynerTheGamer lol, I like to imagine you go around just saying this when it makes no sense at all on the regular.
I rented “Idiocracy” from Netflix back when they were still sending DVDs through the mail. I was a huge fan of Mike Judge and couldn’t wait to see the movie. Some reviewer had written something about it being a dystopian black comedy, similar to Woody Allen’s “Sleeper” and that made me want to see it even more.
Quiet Sunday afternoon. Bottle of beer. Kicked back on the sofa. Ready to laugh my myself silly.
Nothing could prepare me for the absolute horror and utter depression of the soul that was/is “Idiocracy”.
It’s a true prophetic story. It just all hasn’t happened yet. Like the Book of Revelation.

I didn't see it in the theatre, but when I saw it on DVD, I thought it was one of the funniest things I've ever seen. You always wonder with a comedy how funny it's going to be. It was so well written, and cast, and directed, and acted. It was very well done. Definitely one of the best comedy movies I've ever seen. Feel bad that so many corporations and our government missed that it was satire, and not meant to be used as a blueprint.
It never made it to theaters. If it had though, we would be living in a different world at this point.
I dont think it was in theaters. I remember watching it at a house party on mute. I was a drunk teenager, just sat down and it was on like idk HBO or something. I remember watching the opening evolution scene and then looking around the room at other dumb drunk teenagers and being overcome with serious sadness.
check out: tucker and dale vs evil... i laugh every time.
@@newfreenayshaun6651 I think it did make it to some theatres, though perhaps not a wide release. The thing is, so many movies these days, if it's not a big hit the first weekend, it's usually gone by the second.
Never heard of this movie
We all need to thank Mike Judge for the amount of intelligent entertainment that he provided the world. Thanks Mike!!
Office space and Idocricay are 2 movies I can watch over and over. It is a shame he doesn't make more movies, the stories he makes are so unique and relatable.
They may be few but they are all top quality.
I believe u have my stapler
he did a huge bomb about a candy factory.. check it out
All of his movies bombed in the box office. Probably his biggest box office success was beavis and butthead do America
I was 16-17 when office space played on HBO in 1999... Funniest damned thing... and my buddies said "it sounds dumb" now they show their "flair" for it ... But seriously mike judge is a pillar of modern day society. Beavis and Butthead, king of the hill, office space, Idiocracy....
4 properties that are amazing and regardless most people could quote something from one of them... he litteraly helped shape modern american society...
"Welcome to Costco; I love you."
"Carl's Jr. **ck you, I'm eating!"
"Water? You mean like out the toilet?"
One of the most quotable movies ever!
"Go away, 'bating"
"My ex wife was tarded"
🤣🤣🤣 agreed so many quotes
"Ow my balls!"
“I’ve never seen a plant grow out of a toilet”
This dude made my childhood awesome! Beavis and Butthead and King of the hill are peak television
'Beavis and Butthead' made my adolescence more tolerable. :)
He's kept relevant as well. Silicon Valley is one of the best modern sitcoms.
Where you whacking in the tool shed.
@@stephengibbons2260 Mike Judge is a treasure. I'll look forward to anything else he puts out.
As much as I love Beavis and butthead, idk if I would ever call it peak television hahaha.... celebrity death match was my jam tho lol.
I’ve watched it 2 or 3 times before. One of my teachers even played it in class once. It’s a great lesson on how society fails.
Yep it was down hill from 2000, just look at society today.
Even they knew the differences between men and women.
Russia, China and India are gonna take over and rule the world
Could just watch msm to see how society fails lol
Mike Judge is the absolute master of making total fun of something while also accurately portraying how it is at the same time.
"making total of of something while also accurately portraying how it is at the same time." That's called "satire." You're the master of circumlocution.
@marydestefano9487 I believe they meant accurately as in authentic/genuine. It is still satire, but most satire often shys away from a more mundane portrayal opting to be more hyperbolic.
Idiocracy wasn't a movie, it was a prophecy.
It's reality

Idiocracy is better than the matrix. It won't be too much longer that people will forget how to grow food
@@skinnypete2272 i totally agree
Most movies do. That’s how the elites introduce the real things happening in the world. If they released stuff like that on the news people panic. Release stuff like that in movies that “aren’t real” people get intrigued and love it. It amazes me how well the government has trained us. Smh 🤦♂️
The matrix will too, just give mark zuckerberg 20-30 more years to polish the metaverse.

Really? I think it was only released in a hundred theaters and Fox spent nothing to promote it.
It's ok Daniel, I believe you
It's intentional
@@mightisright weellllll I saw it at MGM Grand in Conroe, TX which is an hour north of Houston. Can I even tell you how much popcorn I had for further proof?

"we had 65 speaking parts and then you realise you have to cast all of those people" - and cast you did, to perfection! Not a single dud casting in the entire movie - every single cameo and extra was brilliant!
I have been referencing this brilliant documentary since it was released. Thank you for making this information available to the public.🙏
Documentary😂
I have said this so many times ... I'm always telling people that this movie was preparing us for the narrative we are now living 😱 .
Literally, this and the book 1984. I've gone so far as to ponder on Orwell, being the Fabian he was, having put that book out as a narrative that was to come to fruition in the year of the coded title. Everyone thinks 1984 was projected 40 yrs earlier than it really happened (present times). I think more that we've been there since then and they laugh at us because we can't even realize it

Yes, probably his best work.

Mike Judge is a legend and is up there with Matt Stone and Trey Parker in creating satirical comedy. I highly recommend the Cinemax Series "Mike Judge presents: Tales From the Tour Bus". It's an animated docu-series, that delves into the stories of musics greatest legends. It's a series so full of humour, tragedy, and music and I can not recommend it enough.
I love that show so much. Why didn't he make a 3rd season?
criminal there isn't a season 3 yet
I agree it's awesome. I'm surprised it wasn't huge. But I kinda like it this way. I can tell everybody about it.
@@BIGWEEVEETV a hair metal season would be my choice if I had a say
Judge fathered Stone and Parker. he's beyond legend.
I feel his pain. Idiocracy was a movie that had so potential as a premise, and it always felt like it was done with a lackluster budget. What he is saying about his test screening make sense. It was really smart and it's a universe that I would like explored more in depth
I've always wished there would be a sequel, not sure (!) what would happen in that. People often mention the story "The Marching Morons" in connection with this movie. In that story, the few smart people who run everything secretly (and they obviously exist here, what with the airplanes and other evidence of complex technical manufacture) decide to kill all the stupid people! They make a plan and do it. This doesn't come up as much as you would think. I think Joe would have to meet these people in a further adventure. They are obviously there! There is broadcasting, electricity, aircraft, shoulder-fired missiles, that hospital (it doesn't help Joe much, but if you had been stabbed or were having a baby there was a button to push, something would happen I guess)... Somewhere there are Engineers, Technicians, a professor or two and some kind of educational system. It might not be a secret, it might be something that nobody notices or cares about any more. It's hard to get people interested in books NOW!
It mocked poor/dumb people and more than anything mocked a lot of recognizable corporations (Starbucks, Carl's Jr, Costco, fudruckers, etc) so fox was not too eager about releasing this one in theaters.
"They cut the effects budget.... but the paid to make the movie... so I'm grateful."
What a pro. They sabotaged the movie's production and buried its release, Judge says nice things about them.
They realized the movie was about them (or at least their system) and got pissed off!
You don't burn your bridges in Hollywood if you ever want to work there again. You suck up or get blacklisted. It is what it is unfortunately.
I love Mike Judge! Such a gem of a human being. Idiocracy is seriously my favorite movie of all time. A true classic and one of the truest depictions of society ever portrayed.

@@abdullahx8118 Agreed!
Mike Judge, I think that the bad experience of making the movie has skewed your perception of the impact, prescience, and entertainment of the movie. You made a before-its-time work of art that is hilarious and relevant and will be remembered long after you are gone. Thank you, you've done a brave, difficult and amazing thing and you owe it to yourself to acknowledge it.
It’s very scary knowing that the movie was done almos 20 years ago , and literally it’s exactly what’s happening now in days. We can laugh all we want and look the other way. But it’s here it’s happening now
Love, LOVE Mike Judge - he gets characters so stinkin' well. B&B, 'King...Hill,' 'Office Space,' and Idiocracy - good lay of the land.

Mike was a awesome person and took pictures with us and answered some questions about whatever all of us young kids were bugging him about lol not to mention we all loved him because of Beavis and Butthead!! It was like meeting your super hero lol!!
Idiocracy is the definition of aged like wine. Prophetic level of predictions without sacrificing comedic value.
Talk About a "Legacy". In 2005 this movie accurately Predicted Smartphones (post-2009), Mass Surveillance, Trash TV overtaking normal Television. All 5-10 years before those things happened.

I have often wondered if Mike was aware at the time that he was filming a documentary...
"Idiocracy" was a genius piece of filming. Never before and never again will a movie comedy NAIL current and future societal trends as dead on as this.
Yeah I love it as well love how they had clothes that were plastered with company logos probably will happen at some point
Have you ever seen PCU?
It's a great, hilarious movie, but if you look around yourself, it's really not that hard to notice a downward spiral, and it wasn't different back then either. We've been getting dumber and lazier for a long time now. Like they said, the script actually missed some of the biggest, most significant changes in society, like social media and cancel culture.
At its core it basically comes down to "dumb people breed, smart people don't", which is obviously true, but it's not a mind-blowing revelation.
Devo nailed it way before and way better than Idiocracy. I love Mike Judge -- he distributed a film of mine when no one was interested -- but he screwed up a wonderful idea. If you can't tell from this interview, he knows it sucks.
He should have done a Mel Gibson and paid for it with his own money. As it was, the script wasn't ready, there wasn't enough pre-production, it kind of lurched into production, and he was always behind the corporate 8-ball.
The idea was brilliant and deserved way more time and care. As it is, only idiots think Idiocracy is a good film.
Life imitates art. As our culture gets dumber, the more it appreciates Idiocracy. It helps morons feel smart.
Devo's vision of de-evolution was spot-on and never understood or appreciated by morons.

It’s on RUclips this month. I watch it all the time.
Mike Judge's observation skills, and talent for writing is just genius!
I think Idiocracy is a true legendary classic movie. People will talk about it forever.
I think in hindsight, this movie becomes more and more hilarious as we pass through time. Years go by, and the outrageousness of current society continues to elevate. I think that's why we are getting closer and closer to idiocracy being more of a nonfiction.
Seems like Mike's reaction to Joe bringing up Idiocracy is, "You sure you want to do this? You know which side of the movie you'd fall, right?"
A while back, the Walmart near my house had the movie in the discount DVD rack. I bought 20+ copies for $3 a piece and gave them away for Xmas. Never had such positive feedback for a gift before.
I did the same in later years when Way of the Gun was in the discount bin. I bought a bunch of them for $5 and gave them away for Christmas.

It makes me a little sad that Mike wasn't happy with Idiocracy. I love this movie. If I see it on I'll stop whatever I'm doing and finish watching it. The cast was great. The idea of the deterioration of language is actually happening and it's scary.
Alot of things in that movie were prophetic.
Why u riting all gay n shit?
I can kind of see why he might be unhappy about it. I love the movie but the cracks do show. They took his budget from him resulting in some really cheap looking CG at times. Not to mention some of the script woes. I love the film but it is definitely flawed and I could see why Mike may have disappointments with it
The language thing is actually really interesting. Throughout all of history, language has evolved. It’s only been through the mass homogenization of language, conditions under which it hasn’t been allowed to evolve as freely, that we perceive it to have devolved. Yet, we still find ways to make it our own. Interesting book by Guy Deutscher that touches on it

I like how Joe talks about how much he loves the movie but only references the opening sequence, which arguably is the best part of the movie.

I ordered this movie from Amazon and while watching it I didn’t know whether to laugh, cry, or get angry. I spent 31+ years in American industry and wrote a book series about the decline and fall of the American work ethic. As a luxury vehicle modifier (conversion vans) and an assembly line worker (fire trucks) I worked with people who could not read on a high school level, could not read a simple tape measure, and honestly believed that 3/8ths was more than 3/4ths! Many times I was taken aside by crew leaders and supervisors and advised to “dumb down“ my language so that many of my coworkers could better understand me. During one production meeting when asked to share my thoughts I started off by saying “Well gentlemen , not to sound presumptuous -“ a coworker immediately cut in saying “There he goes again with them $100 dollar words!” Indeed many of my coworkers asked me “Why you gotta use them bigass words?!”

Best real life societal documentary of the 21st century. And funniest.
The premise - the starting ten minutes - is the most accurate and piercing piece of social commentary that exists on film. (Continually we have IVF/ART clients who repeat the lines from the film, completely unaware they are doing it)
The only thing not to like about this film (along with Team America) was the creators' horrible experience producing them. But in a way I'm glad of it as guarantees there will never be a crap sequel that diminishes either of them
Amen.
Team America is a beauty
Should be taught to children in kindergarten.
This movie proved to be a documentary. It’s terrifyingly accurate. One of my all time favorites
"welcome to Costco, I love you" is the greatest line in a movie of all time.
1:30 Actually Mike Judge didn't overlook social media. In the movie they play RUclips or TikToc styled clips of a guy crashing things into his crotch.
Ow my balls!
This man has made two of my favorite movies of all time and three of my favorite shows of all time. A true legend
Which ones
Which ones homie. Pray do tell.

King of the Hill is my all time favorite show for sure.
@@kalithechamp1412 idiocracy, office space, king of the hill, Silicon Valley, beavis and butthead
Released in 2006 as a comedy yet every passing year it comes closer to a documentary.
Well, the FDA is already horrifyingly corrupt, so we might as well rename it to Brawndo: the thirst annihilator!
I remember following the news about this movie as it was being made. It was clear that people who knew thought there was something really great about it, and then it went through this multi-year saga just to get released in any capacity. Just for the studio to allow you to see it. Great work by Comedy Central airing this thing in the middle of the night so you could watch the whole thing.
Damn i feel like i remember that late night comedy central airing, crazy!
I read about it in my roommates Playboy (was toilet reading) and bought the DVD
The dame from battlestar galactica was on the cover lol
Idiocracy is one of my favorite movies. It literally speaks volumes on how people act today. Basically, being smart is wrong, and being an idiot is right. It's a time we live when. People get all types of incentives for acting like an idiot. While being a smart, decent human being gets you nowhere these days.
Loved Idiocracy, Office Space, and Extract. We need a revival of great comedy films and I'd love if Mike Judge could start that with a new one.
You literally just listed my fave films..lol
Extract is such an underrated movie that most people have never heard of.
I agree - also Beavis and Butthead do America is worth it just for the 70s intro. I have all four in my keeper collection.
@@quailman8760 And what's strange is that it's loaded with big name actors. I don't know how it slipped under the radar.
Just saw Extract and damn that movie a hidden gem
The first time I watched Idiocracy it I thought it was okay, the next time it really hit me the genius of it. Mike’s “Tales from the tour bus” is also REALLY good. I was shocked when at the end of the Johnny Paycheck episode I found myself crying when his roadies where talking about him dying and Johnny singing the last song he wrote “An old Violin”. God, they did such an extraordinary job with that episode and several others. I can’t recommend it more 👍
Tales from the tour bus is criminally underrated. I feel like it’s one of those things where if the right clip goes viral it’ll blow up instantly
I must have watched the episode where James Brown gets high on LSD like 100 times. The way Bootsy tells the story is priceless.

The Billy Joe Shaver episode was epic too. But yeah.. I cried a little on the Johnny Paycheck episode. The one where Waylon Jennings tied George Jones to the tree in the backyard cracks me up every time.
@@jeremybertram5575 "I'm the king of country music!" . George Jones and that weird duck voice personality was bizarre. Thanks for all the shows Mr. Judge!
Judge seems to have been ahead of his time over his career and he got so robbed with Idiocracy in how it was so badly released and the lack of recognition. But as usual he got the last laugh really as he created a cult classic that people quickly picked up on after its release, much like Office Space
Another awesome comedy
Every work he does is ahead of the curve.
Office Space was released the same week as Titanic if I recall correctly.
@@erikjanthes Titanic was 97, Office Space was 99
@@fka322 shit, it was another movie blockbuster than, thanks for looking the years up
Idiocracy isn't a comedy movie. It's a documentary about the state of the United States.
Yup
After everything going on right now, it’s a sad tragedy 🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️
Ironically everyone saying this same comment is proving the point even further
Low key one of the funniest and most interesting movies of the past several decades. All of Mike Judge's comedies he wrote and directed are gems - Office Space, Idiocracy and Extract. But the humor is somehow IDK too smart, too specific, to entertain your average Joe. Your average Joe just finds it weird and odd.
But all those movies are smart, they're spot on and they're standing the test of time. You can watch Office Space even now, 20 plus years later, and it still works.
And Idiocracy is just too underappreciated. That movie is actually turning out to be prophetic more and more with each passing decade. And it's thus a fun comedy, but it's also hilarious, poignant, unbelievable, sad and scary at the same time.
Most average Joe’s literally like all of those movies
I love office space, it sums up office life perfectly.
Wow , you're like , such a good writer and stuff🙄
"Average Joe" ended up with the name Not Sure. The doctor flipping out that he didn't have a tattoo reminds me of people flipping out about someone not wearing a face diaper.

I work at a middle school and when they talked about the crocs becoming popular and putting pins on I almost died. All the kids today wear crocs with pins( called jibbits or something crazy and they are not cheap). These kids go nuts for them. I wish I came up with the idea. I have always said that kids today are like Neanderthals only with tictok. Great podcast especially the crocs part. Mike judge absolutely nailed that movie and must be a prophet. Sadly our society is becoming just as it was in idiocracy. Smart technology has made us incredibly lazy and stupid.
its not just kids today LMAO every generation has something dumb they enjoy and spend money on, remember how stupid pogs were?
well, the Chinese guy who invented tik tok said that he made it for unemployed and unstable people.......
No, smart tech simply exposed people's stupidity. The belief in a certain government doctor over the last two years did the same.
Neanderthals had bigger brains than Humans and were less war like and more peaceful, if they became the dominate species, the world maybe much more advance than we are now, who knows?
Joe Rogan makes fun of Croc shoes when sometimes he wears those goofy looking shoes that are like gloves for the feet, I think they're called Vibram. Croc's are better than flip flops becuse they supply some protection from stubbing ones toe, and they are easy to clean.
I watched it again the other day! Its brilliant and hilarious lol 👏 what gets me is all the ads, especially on the tee shirts haha
Brand logos are ads
@@k.o.o.p.a. thats what I mean. It's all over the things we wear
@@perceptionplace. oh lol. I havent watched in a decade
@@k.o.o.p.a. rewatch and compare with current society in the west 😆
Loved it the first and 100th time. Brilliant and underrated
Whenever people around me are discussing scary movies and they ask what is the scariest movie any of us have ever seen, I always say "Idiocracy".
Same!!!
What's surprising is just how many people haven't seen it. I mean, it's pretty much become mainstream as a "cult classic" like Rocky Horror or Dungeons and Dragons (the game), but people just don't feel like it's worth watching. Instead, they stream reality shows about a bunch of disgusting sluts who work on a boat. But of course... the idiots make those big mediocre bucks. Imagine watching a moviue that's basically about how dumb you personally are. Would you watch that? I might, since I am personally aware of how dumb I am, but others aren't that aware and so to them it would be an insult.
Never ever call a woman who had an abortion a baby killer. It's true, but since they are the Breeders of society, we have to pretend like it's not.
It is a funny movie but at the same time it is very scary when everyone around you is stupid
that's the reason why third world Nations suck because the average IQ is severely low so there's a bunch of dumb people doing dumb things
Stupid people are more dangerous for everyone involved than evil people because evil people are just pursuing their own Ambitions and goals
For me it is probably The Ring
Is that what normies talk about? Weird.
If you have one bucket that contains 2 gallons and another bucket that contains 7 gallons, how many buckets do you have? 🤔
2
No. 3. Duh.
@@DavidJohnson-hg1mz unless you mean a bucket that has a capacity of 2 gallons that would be 5 buckets, or a 7 gallon bucket capacity, in total 9 gallons one would be 2/7 and the other would be 7 gallons
9

🤣🤣🤣🤣 A couple of years ago I was floored to learn my wife hadn't seen the movie. I was trying to explain to her that it's truly perfection.🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 She watched it finally and literally pissed her pants laughing and was crying through most of the movie. It really does hold up. Mike's vision is incredible. To be made on 2004 is just amazing. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
My wife is tarded, she's a pilot now.
@@zippySquirrelfaceshit reading your comment makes me want to rewatch it 😂
that movie is a masterpiece that i can always watch. Great Film!
IDIOCRACY LOL
THAT'S KKK 🎉🎉🎉
