I don't think he is dumb enough to be taken in by people like Alex Jones, he made a really good parody of Rush Limbaugh over 20 years ago.

he started saying dumb poo poo after 9/11, and I suspect he's one of those people that was broken by that event.

ok look there are people who, because their politics are excluded from the mainstream, will call into alex jones' show and do an interview with him because he's got the audience. that's a calculated decision that some people make

inviting the screambag into your house and taking the opportunity to tell him how awesome he is, is another matter

i thought it was real ironic that a movie lambasting morons had to rely on a narrator to explain real obvious things to the audience like they're morons

i don't think that was him giving a ;) to the high-brows either

idk i didn't really like the movie. love all his other stuff tho

Idiocracy was loving terrible and thought it was so much smarter than it actually was. Like I understand it was "satire" to be as dumb as possible but that doesn't mean you don't have to put in jokes besides "look how stupid these people are!"

I want to hate silicon valley, but it's good. I end up hating it because even though it's supposed to be a comedy it feels a little too real, like a bunch of these characters are me, and people I knew, at various stages of my life, and i consciously tried to get away from it, it's hard to laugh when i'm confronting my own demons. This must be what it feels like to be a slightly retarded middle aged dad in a texas suburb watching king of the hill i guess.

fun fact they actually had to deliberately tone this down. while they were researching/talking to sv types before they started writing they ran into a bunch of irl characters that they had to soft peddle because viewers would think they're too ridiculous

I think he's very funny and it's pathetic that there are people in this thread who can't see past their own nose to laugh with somebody who thinks differently.

eh, i liked idiocracy. sure its not a "great movie that's hilarious and secretly full of truth" but it has some really hilarious scenes and lines

the scene where he gets named not sure is brilliant

the doctor's office is classic

the court room scene is hilarious

the trick is not to take it too seriously and just enjoy the comedy that stems from it

iirc the narration was added in post and wasn't part of the original movie, while scenes meant to add depth were cut.

Add in how Fox hosed around with the release of the film and the time it spent on the shelf, and it's surprising it found an audience at all.

Idiocracy is way too ham fisted but it has a lot of funny and quotable parts.

I feel the same way about Dave Chappelle whenever people start talking about how nobody was really understanding his sketch comedy

If you want idiocracy to be a scathing social commentary, it's a bad movie. If you want it to be the uncritical sci-fi comedy that it actually is, it's pretty good.
