  • Quite possibly the best opening scene in a movie that becomes more surreal with every passing year. Idiocracy was ahead of its time and the opening scene-NO, the whole movie still hold ups. This is why I think Idiocracy the movie has the best opening scene.
    What is Idiocracy?
    Idiocracy is a 2006 American science fiction comedy film directed by Mike Judge and co-written by Judge and Etan Cohen. The plot follows U.S. Army librarian Joe Bauers, who wakes up five hundred years in the future after a botched government hibernation experiment to find himself in a dystopian society run by corporations, where evolution has made humanity stupid because the benefits of technology made it unnecessary for people to be intelligent and physically fit to survive. The cast includes Luke Wilson, Maya Rudolph, Dax Shepard, Terry Crews, David Herman, Justin Long, Andrew Wilson, and Brad Jordan.

      But it's not true. In fact IQ has been rising in all studies. People are getting smarter. It has nothing to do with who makes babies and everything to do with who has access to education.
      If this theory were true the solution would be to prevent people with low IQ to breed, that's called eugenics and has been tried and falsified many many times.

      Not to mention if you pursued a formal higher education you most likely have student loan debt piling up, for your undergrad degree that at best gets you 60k annually. Hence why alot of millennials are forced to live w a roommate or two.

Eugenics is a practice of excluding certain groups and people who are deemed undesirable to improve the quality of the genetic pool. Only thing the movie even remotely got wrong was using IQ as a measure of intelligence- it is a flawed and limited measure but presently the best one we have. It does not promote eugenics. It points out that multi-generational repopulation by primarily unintelligent people will lead to a decrease in intelligence across the species. Of course intelligence is something still being studied and it is not entirely heritable so the movie exaggerates this for comedic effect.

    Been sayin' for decades, if you need a license to drive you should need one to breed!

      Driving is a behaviour which can bring danger, not only to oneself but to others. Behaviour is the operative word. Newborn babies are... well... human beings. I see the difference even if you do not. Besides, who would issue the licenses? How would that be policed?

      @@Tom.Livanos Policed! Seriously? You think the cretinous dictators that rule over us are capable of policing licenses to breed? Driving is not a behaviour, it’s a learned skill. I see that, even if you do not.

    A case of fiction imitating life. Because this is an accurate description of life in 2024. And it seems to only be getting worse.

    Walmart and golden corral are fine examples of breeding at it's finest.
