  • WTF Happened To This Movie? - The JoBlo series that looks at troubled productions, curious creative decisions, box-office failures, surprising successes, and cult favorites!
    Mike Judge found massive success with his "Beavis and Butt-Head" TV series, but the transition to live-action proved far more difficult. After the box office failure of OFFICE SPACE in 1999, Judge's next effort IDIOCRACY fared even worse in 2006, with the studio practically burying his movie. But in the years since, the social satire found a cult following and became part of the pop culture landscape with its depiction of a moronic future. Mutilate your thirst and find out "WTF Happened to IDIOCRACY!"

      @@billtoo4694 I'm assuming you're mixing this up with the extreme but isolated, relatively brief, case of the Khmer Rouge genocide in Cambodia(which is no longer communist), which killed people viewed to be intellectuals.
      The Khmer Rouge was removed by.....the Vietnamese army.
      "worldwide Communism that literally kills every single person with an education" is transparently just bullshit, and there's no way anyone could truly believe that without a severe illness.
      There's literally nothing to back up this rhetoric. In reality Vietnam is held up as an exceptional example of education, despite being relatively poor, certainly ranks higher than the USA for example:
      www.apec.umn.edu/incomeveducationglewwe
      China dominates tech, construction etc, and they somehow manage this with all their educated people 'dead', and like all other communist countries for some reason they have education facilities. Send them to university, so you can kill them later... that's some pretty insane logic right there.
      It's pretty daft to label all countries that have vaguely the same poltitical system as all being the same anyway. Albeit there are a huge number...5 communist countries - China, Vietnam, Laos, Cube & North Korea(which is really it's own thing, more akin to a cult at the political level). The much more extreme North Korea & Cuba are doing the worst, Laos is so-so but seemingly improving, while China & Vietnam are booming economically - and are both highly capitalist as well as communist anyway
      Similarly many democratic/capitalist countries are very different from each other.
      I can't find anything relating to any particularly significant 'power failure', the rest of that phrase is obviously false, there's obviously no country that's done that.

      In real life, society WILL become stupid AND CRUEL (...one coup against 'da man' at a time).
      BUT there will be a secret core of clever elites (possibly dames), breeding for those idiots -- a hive. (If not, a marginally smarter society would simply invade, which would start a pressure selecting for clever again.)
      If humans replace the giant caste of idiots with machines, then Idiocracy (fem-run or otherwise) WON'T happen.
      Problem is machines are more expensive than the males right now (as expensive as coups are [it's complicated]): A robo vacuum-cleaner-frisbee thing probably works for 87 cents a day for 6 years, while a human works for much less than that for longer [it's complicated].
      When machines are created enmasse [labor bots and war bots] (once cheap), the most important skill in society will become hacker [guess hew]. Right now the most important skill is media cretin and "teacher" [...both are "hackers" programming children and the gullible].

Why would I subject a kid to this? In the end my ex left me for another woman anyway. So she isn't going to be having a baby there lol. But I am still looking into the "old snip" asap. It is reversible should I have a change of heart later in life and it just proverbially takes the option off the table. "I can't have kids so I won't worry so much about the obligation".

    I remember before this film came out, Newsweek did an article on it. One if the things mentioned in the article was that in the first draft of the film, the original reason why people became idiots was due to the education system in the US.
    Specifically, teachers no longer graded on what is considered "correct/incorrect", rather students were told if they "felt something was right, then it was". The example used was "as long as Timmy believes 2+2=5, then that's okay because we don't want to hurt his feelings."
    This was cut from the film because test audiences didn't think poling fun of teachers was okay.
    As a teacher, I wasn't offended by that at all.

      Idiocracy was *also* mentioned in these circles but, in this case, it wasn't even released to many theatres. I had to drive from west Houston all the way to Baytown to catch a screening and, after like ten days, it wasn't being played even there.

      I think it was a sign of stupidity in the movie because they watched over and over and still laughed. If I was told I was going to a screening for a movie and when I got there it was just a farting ass, I think I would probably laugh too. Mostly because I wouldn't be sure what was going on and the situation would be kind of novel to me. That said I wouldn't go back for a repeat visit or buy the movie when it came out.
      Idk I laugh at a lot of things. Sometimes because I think they are clever and they genuinely tickle me, sometimes because they are just so dumb there is no other response to give. Usually the clever things I can laugh at again if I'm reminded of them later while the stupid things feel like a one off that gets tiring fast after repetition.

      Farts are funny. Add to that, the incredibly strange way the farts presented to the audience. I would have laughed too.
