It's interesting to watch the history of this movie that everyone loves now in the present time. But when it first came out hardly anyone knew it even existed. Oh man.
Isn't Idiocracy one of the best movies ever? EDITED Title

- Start date
Giant Freakin Robot?
Boy, I hope their channel is better than their website.
I only liked this particular video...... Their website sucks ass.
I believe a lot of content may be AI generated so it's the lazy way out for the creators
No just there were some videos I liked like the one about Idiocracy but most of their content is stuff I don't like.. Saying "I love this channel" well I think I shall edit that now... After a bit if digging, which I should have done before posting.. Sorry
That sounds like an excellent way to save quite a lot of current money.
I watched it a few years ago and really enjoyed it, but now it's a little scary because it feels a little too close to where we are now and where we're headed.
I read an article a recently where they talked to someone that was involved with the production, and they said that when they were working on the movie, they needed shoes and found this new company selling "stupid plastic shoes", and they picked them because they thought there was no way they were going to take off. They were Crocs.

The majority of which tended to get released in the fall through December, at least pre-Covid......
It was a fun movie. But the premise - a very old one - is classist, and the execution was (presumably unintentionally) racist in many respects.
The core trope is based on equating wealth and education with native intelligence - it's not smarter people who reproduce less, it's affluent people. Reducing their number of progeny opens more potential opportunities for intelligent folks who lack other social and cultural advantages.

I agree that it was also classist.

Of course it was great. It had electrolytes.
In reality, it's simply an uncredited elaboration of Cyril Kornbluth's 1951 story "The Marching Morons."
Parenthetically, a number of the set pieces constructed for this film show up reused in the Trek fan fillm Starship Exeter: The Tressaurian Intersection which shot at Austin Studios on a schedule alongside Idiocracy. Our crew used to dumpster dive outside Judge's rented soundstage every morning.
