Idiocracy

I’ve said it before, and it feels like I’ve said it a lot lately. The stupid are breeding faster than the rest of us! Intelligent people of the world, those who are well-read, well-traveled, well-educated and don’t believe in a faked Moon Landing, get on it! You don’t want to end up like this!

Yes, this movie is worth check out. Made by Mike Judge, the same guy who brought you King of the Hill and Beavis and Butthead (kind of ironic, I know), Idiocracy explores a future where the gradual dumbing down of American civilization results in a world where the dumb rule and the intelligent are seen as limp-wristed little pussies.

Part comedy, part cautionary tale, it’s actually quite funny and makes something of a point, especially with its little mock “case study” at the beginning. Check it out, have a laugh, then feel terrified for the future of humanity. And to those of you whom I know personally, with significantly high IQ’s, a sense of wonder about the world, sensitive spirits and open minds, and who have chosen to pass these traits onto others, BLESS YOU A THOUSAND TIMES OVER!

And here’s the next minute or so. Don’t know why they cut it up like this!

      It’s actually got a nice message by the end of it, and got plenty of laughs! Also, it’s not in theatres if that’s what you meant. Think it was one of those straight to DVD features.
