"Idiocracy" Anyone else seen it?

[plgrn]

DH and I just finished watching it. ********, yet so funny.


The White House goings-ons actually made more sense to me than what we currently have! Hmmmm....perhaps I should save mankind by not breeding.

DW and I saw it and thought it was funny enough. Sad thing is, that probably is where our culture is headed.

We watched it too and liked it! I can see where some may not though.

Loved the "Ouch, My #!$!s" thing. haha

I really like Mike Judge's work so I'll have to remember to check this out.

Does anyone one else besides me refer to the HoR as "The House of Representin'" now?

GF and I saw it and didn't like it at all.

It reminded me very much of a guy I knew in college who thought he was soo brilliant that he owed it to the world to reproduce to keep his brilliant genes in the gene pool.

We LOVE Office Space, but didn't care for Idiocracy very much. We just saw it recently and I don't remember much about it at all.

I loved Office Space too..we still do lines from that movie at our office! This one was good, but not as laugh out loud funny as Office Space.

It does make me want to round up all my smart friends and make them have kids....

I just wanted to point out how it was just slightly ironic in 2007 when this thread was started (go back and read the posts in this thread), and how much more “scary” & ironic it is in 2024, (17 years later).

I literally say we are living in the movie Idiocracy at least once a day. Would be funny if it wasn't so damn scary!

Ah yes! The only movie that started out as a comedy and ended up as a documentary.

Great classic movie full of satire.

It's barely "satire" anymore!
