"Idiocracy" (2006) Group Movie Reaction | First Time Watching

[@smoothmove7566]

The only movie to go from a comedy to a documentary.

[@Mufasatrips]

😂 facts

[@realisticthought1781]

This is where crocs came from. It was supposed to be a joke

[@ravex24]

Well, Crocs were a thing already. They just chose them because they thought they were the dumbest, most unattractive shoe, and nobody with half a brain would buy them. Look at us now.

[@Paul77ozee]

You missed the after credits where upgrade wakes up in one of those pods. I bet upgrade became the world leader.

U-p-g-r-a-y-e-d-d 😂

[@jackrussell1232]

I love noticing things in this movie that don't make sense. They're in there intentionally and they're really fun to catch. Like when the cops accidentally shot down the airplane: who in this world can fly airplanes? That's not an easy thing to learn how to do. And who is building the voice recognition software on the scanners and things? How are the police able to track him with computer tech? Who handled the marketing and distribution for the film "Ass"? Who is maintaining all of these things?

[@PillowHero-jd6ie]

Maybe AI and auto pilot

[@cmyFUfinger]

Welcome to the current usa

[@mellertid]

"Subway?!" *disgust* "Are you f***ing... British?" Meanwhile, the British keeping calm and also never calling it that.

[@Paul77ozee]

Isn’t it called the Tube in Britain ? Here in Melbourne Australia it’s called the city loop.

[@PillowHero-jd6ie]

Yeah, I looked it up and now I see that it's only called Subway in Glasgow 😅

[@mattburrito]

[@KabookiSan]

This movie is now a documentary. So glad I got picked to be an extra for this one. Was tons of fun watching everything. I was in the scenes for the Movie theatre (Starplex in San Marcos) and the court room (also san marcos courtroom). We had to redo so many scenes over and over, one time my friend was making Mike Judge laugh and the camera picked it up so we had to keep redoing it.

[@anunnacy]

10:17 What was the name of that movie that you mentioned there? " ... of light" ? Would love to check it out, but I didn't get the first word.

[@PillowHero-jd6ie]

Invention of lying

[@anunnacy]

@@PillowHero-jd6ie Oooh that movie! Yes that's a good one I agree. 😃 Creative too. Thx for reply and keep it up guys ✌

[@1957Shep]

This was supposed to be 500 years in the future. But looking at the world today I think we are getting more than a little ahead of schedule.

[@SolistFrankHerrmann]

The man watches the film, the woman looks more into the camera ^^

[@aliciasavage6801]

The FDA is pretty much bought already in the US. This movie is fairly right on the money.

[@shawnpatrick1877]

I remember when this movie seemed like a funny exaggeration of the way things were going in order to make some social commentary. Now it just seems like a current-year documentary about life in the United States.

[@joshbates9015]

Sucks for y'all

[@MarioofSevenStars]

Did you watch the after credits scene?

[@PillowHero-jd6ie]

Yeah, only after we stopped recording 🫠

[@Bill_pierre]

As an American, this is starting to hit home a bit too much.

[@3DJapan]

You talk about kids getting dumber at the end. Many American schools don't teach cursive writing anymore and it just makes me wonder what about all of the old documents that were written in cursive? They'd never be able to read the Declaration of Independence.

[@joshbates9015]

Are you able to read Latin? What about all of those medieval texts that were are all written in Latin? Are you a dumber person for not being able to read them?

[@danbrit9848]

at this point this movie is a documentary

[@nuckle4270]

We are quite literally living this in our politics in the united states right now.

[@jeromedeparis]

Welcome to the future.

[@206beastman]

U missed the after credit scene

[@stormingelysium1996]

The first book of the Bobiverse (We Are Legion), has a similar start, where they freeze people, but things don't continue how they thought they would.

[@DrewForward]

AI + TikTok = Idiocracy IRL 💀. My idiot name will be "Up Supreme Tok." 😂

Hey! ,,, some of us drink Mountain Dew : p

[@sebswede9005]

Oh my god, it's already started!

[@brianboye8025]

Innovation of Lies is awesome. It is very funny.

[@webspec]

For more comedies, checkout the Farrelly Brothers, they have a handful of popular comedy movies. My personal wish is to see more of The Heartbreak Kid, but they have more popular ones. Usually their work with Jim Carrey and Ben Stiller is the most popular one.

[@2deth3]

Beef Supreme looks like the actor who played The Deep from "The Boys" series.

[@PillowHero-jd6ie]

That's what I actually said, but cut it out!! 🤣😅

[@hfsjfc8111]

He is acutally the third Wilson brother, Andrew, with Luke and Owen.

[@shihonage]

There's a short after-credits scene...

[@bluegizmo1983]

20:00 🤨 The Coke in my American hand is offended... lol

[@myTERAexperience]

I'd read the comments but... 😅

[@mattburrito]

hi pillow hero this movie you watched not just a movie but based on facts as of nowadays from entertainment politics humanity & how we use technology and sexualisation of everything as of 2024 we dont need to wait 481 years for 2505.

[@ML-lx4su]

Did you miss the post-credit scene?

[@swissguy8052]

Unfortunately it's more a documentary..

[@Sinkorswim1225]

Cool. What has the Swissguys country contributed to human civilization, by the way? Your opinion is mute, especially when Europe is just as fucked up.

[@swissguy8052]

@Sinkorswim1225 The teachings of the French-speaking Swiss school of natural law played an important role in the North American independence movement and revolution. The American constitutional fathers Thomas Jefferson, James Madison and John Adams studied the books of representatives of the school and adopted modern principles of natural law and the so-called “personal view of humanity”. This was expressed in the Declaration of Independence of July 4, 1776: “We hold these truths to be established, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness.”

20:05 "I feel like Americans don't drink water, only Coke." And WE'RE supposed to be the uneducated ones?? Fun Fact...All human beings require water to live, even Americans...SMH

[@PillowHero-jd6ie]

In 2015, during my studies in Poland, I had the opportunity to work at the Hilton Hotel, where we welcomed diverse international guest groups. Europeans customarily had water on their dinner tables, while Americans and Arabs ALWAYS preferred Coca-Cola. I have noticed a gradual cultural shift, with Americans increasingly recognizing the importance of water consumption. However, there is still a noticeable gap compared to the water consumption habits observed in Europe and Asia. And this does not include drinking tea, which we consume several times a day and is practically water with leaves. Meanwhile, in the USA, it's not as popular

[@mikeoxstiff]

You didn't watch the after credit scene. It gives closure to a storyline.

[@BigGator5]

"Yah I know this place is pretty good, I went to law school here." "In Costco?" "Yah I couldn't believe it myself, luckily my dad was an alumnus and pulled some strings." Fun Fact: Theatrical movie debut of Kati Sharp. Idiocracy One Fact: The Presidential RV has the number 28000, which is the real tail number for Air Force One. Voice Play Fact: Director Mike Judge is the voice of the announcer at the demolition derby. He also voices the announcer of The Masturbation Network. Blink And You'll Miss It Fact: The very small Surgeon General's warning seen on the Tarrylton's Cigarettes billboard reads: "Warning: The Surgeon General has one lung and a voicebox but he could still kick your sorry ass." Casting Notes Fact: Thomas Haden Church had read for Office Space (1999) but didn't get the part. However Mike Judge was a big fan of Church's work and tried getting him cast in other projects but due to other commitments, they couldn't line it up. When this film was shooting in Austin Texas, Judge called Church to work for one day. To this day, Church hasn't seen the film. Studio Hacks Fact: In addition to concerns about how to market the film, Twentieth Century Fox also grew weary of the film's frequent, harsh critiques of recognizable corporations. Studio executives wished to shuffle the movie to DVD shelves as quickly and quietly as possible. The film's contract, however, stipulated that it had to receive a theatrical release. The studio met the terms of the contract, but provided no marketing for the film, released it in an unusually small number of cinemas in select cities, and pulled the film in all markets after only one week. So little effort was put into showing the film in theaters, that some of the few cinemas that screened the film were forced to promote it as "Untitled Mike Judge Project" in their lists of coming attractions.
