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!"

"Idiocracy" is one of the most underrated documentaries of all time.
I agree

It needs a re-release in theaters so people can see themselves today. I saw it in theaters and my two friends thought the movie was so awful they wanted me to reimburse them for the tickets. a few years later they realized the movie wasn't bad but just ahead of its time.

This doesn't even address worldwide Communism that literally kills every single person with an education. After Communist took over Vietnam, they killed the "Bourgeoisie", after a power failure they sought international help after they realized they had killed every single person who knew how to fix it.
@@billtoo4694 we found the idiot.
@@excitedbox5705 Whatever you say genocide denier.
@@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.

I'm a chemist nearly 90 years old and I've see much of American History. This film is THE MOST on target piece of prophesy ever produced by the Arts. God help us.
You are nearly 90? Wow, that’s impressive sir
Neat
Any particular highlight you'd care to share?
Even at half your age, I can see the same writing on the wall. I remember seeing this movie when it came out. I bought it and I made all my friends at least watch that opening monologue. Most found it funny. I found it horrifying. The scariest part is I figured the future it depicted was still a good 50 to 75 years away. Now, just a decade and a half later, so much of it really has already come to pass, but the rest I have realized will be something I will likely live to see myself rather than it being the world of my descendants.
It wasn't a prophecy. It was the game plan.
Mike Judge is a freaking genius from the future. I love every project he has created
My husband and I were just discussing how this movie gets less funny every year, because it's becoming real
Every year i tell my wife reading this top comment on every discussion of Idiocracy gets less funny.
The moment I first saw an interview with Trump I immediately thought about Idiocracy.
Honestly I agree ever since this movies release I thought yeah right well for a few years I'm seeing it become real

It feels like this movie was sabotaged for being TOO on the nose.
It went straight to video for icon bashing. Remember how they bastardized Starbucks & Fudruckers?
I mean, if anyone thinks this movie WASN'T undermarketed because of the corporate placements, well then you're why it's coming true.
Sure, there's an early stated premise "dumb people breed more", but it's far from the actual point of the piece in the end.

Mike Judge is the unsung hero of us blue collar fellas, King of the Hill is one of the best animated series of all time.
Nice icon, S.A.
I think white collar working people also appreciate his wit and insight
My friends and I constantly are shocked at how closely "Idiocracy" has predicted life in the 21st century. One of the best hilarious critiques of modern society. Way ahead of its time.
Mike Judge is so underrated, and criminally unutilized by Hollywood.
Mike Judge and Greg Garcia tend to make properties that are pretty great. I always look forward to whenever they make something new because there's a much higher-than-average chance that it'll be good.
Bc he's too honest
he likes it that way TRUST ME
That is by design...
I dunno. Beavis and Butthead were a very big deal when they came out. Office Space has one of the biggest cult followings, everybody quotes King of the Hill. I wouldn’t say he’s underrated, he’s rated about where he should be. He’s never gonna be treated like Scorsese or Ridley Scott, Kubrick or James Cameron..he’s very different.
Idiocracy is one of the most culturally important movies ever filmed.

The only satirical comedy to become a documentary.
Not full length films but a lot of The Onion videos were mostly intended as jokes but ended up real too.
The election: it has electrolytes!
IDK 1984 seems to be on point so far.......
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].
That were still watching
I honestly didn't even know this movie existed for the longest time, until it was mentioned in a book I was reading. So I asked a few people about, found out it actually existed and watched and LOVED it.
Can I ask what book casually refrenced it?, I would be really curious to know

They should be airing this on the history channel in about 10 years.
The history channel is to history like a teddy bear is to a grizzly. Very artificial, and almost entirely unlike the real thing.
Isn't it aried everytime they show the US Congress and senate, especially the Democrats?
Why wait? We now have President Kamacho (Kamala?) Biden.
It might air if there's anyone left smart enough to operate the equipment in ten years.
bro i need my ancient aliens, there's no time for your conspiracy theories
The worst part about "Idiocracy" is how painfully accurate it is despite being meant as a satire and comedy. Mike Judge deserves a lot more praise for his keen observation skills. "Office Space" truly nailed it too.
Silicon Valley, too...Judge has his finger on the pulse
especially with the gangster rap
We had the exact model of printer at a place I used to work, and it was just as unreliable as the one in Office Space.
It even had the "LP Load Letter" error message.
Later, when I watched the film, I took great satisfaction from the execution sequence.
I LovED Office Space.
Office Space is a gem. Idiocracy.....not so much.
It was intended as a comedy but wound up a prophetic documentary. We're living in its prequel.
I was blown away by Mike's view of the future already seeing how rabid nationalism became after 9/11, I was scared we were at the cusp of what his movie was about and just 15 years later...we have arrived to idiocracy.

maybe because shes stupid?
2006: hahahahahahah It's hilarious. Imagine if it was really like that.
2021: DOH!!!
Oh no - Idiocracy was ALWAYS a horror film - a funny one, but it always was too close to reality to be taken lightly... Now where did I put my water - from the toilet???
Yep. Especially the scenes of some police officers just pepper-spraying somebody as a one-size-fits-all reaction ... that was a lot easier to laugh at a few years ago.

Telling the truth in times of universal deceit becomes a revolutionary act.
Fair choice of wise words I think, though I may say, when deceit is universal and brought about by the semblance of revolution, the truth is the outlier, and telling the truth is then a rebellious act. Though hopefully at some point revolutionary.

@@simoncarlile4961 I've wanted Owe My Balls to be a real show for years lol. Good thing we have tons of nuts getting racked on youtube.
The timeline made sense in the movie. The premise was people were getting dumber out of biological evolution (stupid people having more children than smart ones), and evolution is slow and takes many generations. We are getting stupider out of technology and cultural (de)evolution, which are much much faster than biology, and accelerating as we speak, unfortunately
The first 5 minutes of Idiocracy are a scary and brutally honest look at reality.
Can confirm. I'll be 33 in a few days. My ex wanted a kid but I didn't. I told her the world was just too weird. It hasn't gotten better and I don't think I will be having any kids. But no worries. 6 of the houses around me have like 5 or 6 kids each. They had plenty for the whole neighborhood!

The astronomical mathematics that go into the probabilities of my ever having existed at all are staggering. But I am not a rich person. I can barely afford to feed myself some days. 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". The only true obligatory feelings, again, coming from my parents when they mention "I'm getting old I wish I had a grandchild."

That test audience with "Ass"" did not happen. That is hilarious. You made my day. Perfect.
"What happened to Idiocracy?" It became real.
Especially when the US President Trump was seen doing pro wrestling videos.
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.
They should've kept that in; it'd make the film even more prescient.
its because duh teachers and critical race theory duhhhhh
I wonder what the social science degree students think of this move? Anyone?
in 2006, I could understand the argument that it was needlessly insulting to teachers. Today, it's more real than they ever could have predicted.
Bush's No Child Allowed Ahead program made damn sure nobody would learn anything useful, least of all critical thinking of any kind. The GQP made this movie into its playbook.
First time I watched Idiocracy, I laughed my ass off.

I now feel so prescient. I saw both "Office Space" and "Idiocracy," in a movie theater, during their initial releases. I had no idea how poorly the studio handled the two films. Perhaps the management at the studio recognized themselves and their families, in the characters, in both films.
Office Space was available to gen-X on IRC, so our generation (I'm 49) did see it. But then gen-X was a babybust so that meant fewer ticketsales as opposed to the kids and the boomers.
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 saw "Office space" because of the ads on comedy channel and I knew it would be good. But Idiocracy I never knew existed until it was on cable.
Extremely plausible scenario.
This movie is pure genius and Terry Crews's President Dwayne Elizondo Mountain Dew Herbert Camacho is utter genius.
Honestly Camacho would be an actual solid choice if he were real and running. An idiot, but priorities are ramrod straight.
@@fireblast133 No one ever said we wanted a smart president. Just one that doesn't bullshit us.
Idiocracy was and still is the most frightening movie I have ever seen.
Mike Judge the unsung hero of the last 20 years.
Office space prevented my suicide.
I had never even heard of "Extract", just watched it a few days ago and it was great, had no idea it was also by Mike Judge 👍
"I used to think my life was a tragedy, but I now realise- it's a comedy!"
"It's all a joke, it's all a fuckin joke."
Almost the exact opposite line is in Stranger than Fiction after keeping track of things that were more comedic or tragedy, "This may sound like gibberish to you... but uh... but I think I'm in a tragedy.
I kind of feel like we owe it to Terry Crews to elect him in 2024
With his recent bad experiences with the "woke" culture, he may be ready.
Fuckin better than we got now
HOLD ON, VATO!
I mean, at least he cared. Better than the first orange president.
@@jc.1191 orange president? Is that a racist joke? Must be if you're talking about someone's skin color. Odd thing, to bring racist comments onto a comedy movie. But it's the internet so racists with no profile pics and not real names are abound I guess.
I watched Idiocracy a bit over 15 years ago and thought it had nailed it even back then. Social dumming down had been in progress much earlier but has gained increadible speed recently
"why do you keep saying that?"
"Cause they pay me every time I do. You're so smart why didn't you know that?"
Well played Sir

We’re literally living in this.
The real takeaway from Idiocracy is that intelligent white couples need to start having more kids again.
@@rogerc23 oh I’m agreeing with that all day my boy

Bunch of idiots here thinking they are the smart ones, kinda funny.
@@rogerc23 ppl like Elon Musk having 7 of them is more or less this concept applied
The studio ignored it (hoping it would go away) because it was and is too real. The system does not want anything thought provoking.
Definitely top of my all time favs, right next to Spaceballs and Caddy shack. Can you imagine kicking back with Mike Judge, Mel Brooks, and Harold Ramos. Hope I spelled that right... Anyway, comic genius!
"What happened to Idiocracy?"
In America people only watch documentaries once.
Welcome to Costco, I love you!

OMG- I can't believe the reaction to "Ass" was legitimate. We're already there, folks.
It's sad that I can believe it. But I've had a low opinion of humanity since I started to think.
Yeah. ...
@@EgoChip Thats what the drugs and drink are for ,,, to stop thinking ,,,,,,, think about it ,,,, no i mean don't think about it.
Or that the head of Carl's Jr. actually became a cabinet member.
Judge should just go ahead and release, “Ass,” to theaters.
He is also responsible for a small thing you might have heard of called King of the Hill. You left that out.
Brett Welaj-
I read your post.
Then I thought:
"The boy ain't right".
Boy, that Mike Judge sure is a true American patriot, I tell ya hwhut. Heh heh
Yup. Cannot go to a propane store now without hearing "Taste the meat, not the heat" in Hanks voice. Or telling the wife "I am here for propane and propane accessories."
@@Bob-rr9yv I told my friend he reminded me of Dale Gribble.
He perked up and said thanks.
He considered it the best compliment he ever got.

What happened?? It became reality, that's what happened!!!...
it was supposed to be a comedy, not a training manual!
I am late to comment, but someone said it anyway.
And you and this comment section prove it, how many of you will say this same thing cuz you're too dumb and lazy to take a few sec to scroll down and see several others have already said this?
Yep it’s how we got a reality tv star and failed real estate mogul for president. Shit even Ronald Reagan was just a shitty B-list actor before he became governor of California. Both meant to be corporate puppets.

My brother took a moviemaking class his senior year of high school. His teacher showed this not long after it came out on DVD, then my brother ordered it from Netflix and showed it to me, and next thing you know, we're showing it to everyone we know.
Every time I'm subjected to one of these modern self-proclaimed amalgams of hero/victim... all I hear is "Brawndo's got what plants crave".
It got electrolytes!!! 😋
The confused lady who can only repeat the sales slogan when he's pitching the water idea, and then looks confused because he doesn't understand her....Is literally how a substantial part of our population is today. They can't think for themselves and can only puppet what has been drilled into their brains. There is no knowledge, only carefully curated off the shelf "facts" used to counter opposition.
Even scarier when the satire on the Babylon Bee has to get fact checked by Snopes.
LOL, Yep, the funny thing is that ad I got when this video started was a political ad by the democrats entitled Jim Crow 2.0
I heard about Babylon Bee from the Fact-checkers, and I have to say, many of the things they say also become true to the point where their page look like a News Site rather than satire, hence the 'Need' to fact-check them.
What ridiculous times we are living. But with the incoming Depression, Americans will have a very rude awakening.
@@joshanonline Precisely.
@@joshanonline Many of the people here are members of the smugnoratti who assume that their version of condescending leftist pseudo-intellectual dogma is unquestioned. It's that mentality that leads to the BB getting fact checked but also it makes good propaganda.
@Cafe Ok Yeah, even friends who I normally think of as good critical thinkers. I am talking about people with university degrees in the sciences (actual sciences not social studies) are snowed over by the concept of a "fact check" or "debunking". I have to give them credit they gamed out the propaganda strategy to a tee.
“Untitled Mike Judge Movie” sounds like a better movie than 2/3 of what comes out nowadays.
Far less generic...
Absolutely!
I'll take anything Mike Judge makes, even though B&B was super low-brow for my tastes. Silicon Valley was his Magnum Opus. You could see that he culled from all of his works to put that thing together.
ye boi
IKR?! Mike Judge is "mad funny with fuck you money." That's a quote from Ajay Naidu, who played Samir Nagheenanajar on Office Space.
"don't worry scro, there's plenty of tards out there livin' real kick-ass lives." So true.
They're pilots now
My first wife, was tarded.
Lmao!
so glad this line stood out to more than just me
Yeah, most of them are "teachers" and politicians.

Also this was a great timeline of Mike’s career and his genius
But weirdly no mention of King of the Hill.

we lived in
IDIOCRACY
from
2017 to 2021
First watched idiocracy in 2018. It was anxiety inducing.
Clearly “Idiocracy” has come true.
The Rise of Participation Trophy Generation.
Not fully yet, it wil in 20 years
"Idiocracy" came true. We’re living it.
Fear will make the weak do stupid shit.
Idiocracy is one of the best comedies ever! It is simply perfect. 10/10.
Little did he know he was making a documentary not a comedy.
@@spiderfan1974 well at least we are pass 45 for now
@@JaY-uy7mn true if he were to run again the trumptards would vote for him for sure. The I'm not voting for mango mussolini I'm voting against "x candidate" crowd however different story. I think they learned their lesson some might not vote. Others might vote independent/write in or vote Democrat begrudgingly. Either way politically the mango menace is done. The scary part is someone worse and more stupid than incest orange will come along.
@@spiderfan1974 The "someone worse" is currently President. But the real Idiocracy is not recognizing that. Your perceptions are very superficial. You just accept the MSM narrative, watch Idiocracy and South Park, and think you're worldly geniuses. Deconstruct some Rick & Morty... put some thought into things... and get back to us.
@@spiderfan1974 Yeah you just repeated what everyone including JoBlo is saying. Great.
'm watching this movie in 2023 and everything in the movie is going to become the reality. This movie came out in 2006, so it's far more advance. I can 100% confirm almost everything shown in the movie has already become our reality in 2023
Mike Judge has made some of the greatest cult films. He's a genius imo.

I know I watched it recently and thought it was a documentary. I did think 500 years was to long though as we seem to be accelorating
I saw someone said that the only difference between this film and today's world is that in the film, they found the smartest guy in the world and put him in charge.
"His Jr High class taking over the world" is 100% accurate.
Martin Mull said, "Hollywood is like High School. With money."
Now, we are looking at Jr. High? As our culture???
Indeed my supervisor is a living embodiment of Beavis
True. I was watching a news segment where they were interviewing FB factcheckers, who are children in middle school.
It's definitely a true statement with lower average IQ democracies.
What do you think happened in Germany in 1932? 170 years of government-run schooling. We're coming up on 170 years of the same (Prussian-style education!) if you count from when MA went onto the Prussian model (1852). You can read all about it in "The Underground History of American Education" by John Taylor Gatto, and "The Shadow University" by Harvey Silverglate.

I tried to introduce this movie to my friends shortly after it came out. There was an eerie feeling amongst us afterwards. Like it was an unspoken agreement it was slowly coming true and we never spoke of it again.
I started to watch the way I sounded after I saw that movie. It's pretty on point, I think.
The film is also about people like you and your friend, you're just too dumb to see it. Dumb people thinking that they are smarter than they actually are.
No, no you didn't . Vgm is believable. but if you and your. Buddies walked away without saying "go away, I'm baiting," "I'll fag your face," or "shit, I thought there were two of you" but instead, you were disturbed, I don't think you have seen it yet

I love this movie lol... the fact that the cast for the "Ass" movie scene laughed at it without direction makes it all the better
Hilarious.
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.
Was about to comment....Ragnarok already said it.
Farts are funny. Add to that, the incredibly strange way the farts presented to the audience. I would have laughed too.
comedy central showed this movie so much anyone who had cable from 2006-2016 stumbled upon this at one point and watched it
Lol the moments when Judge realized he was living in the movie he was making hahaha!
