idiocracy is meant to be stupid because it's about a stupid yet possible future

 

i'm saying the premise of the movie is stupid. the future it envisions is not possible.

idiocracy was brilliant, you simply miss another layer

 

what layer am i missing?

 

i'm just saying that the lack of intelligence associated with lower classes is probably a result of growing up in a shitty environment rather than inherent unintelligence.

i don't think the film was implying that actually, where did you get that notion from ? what scene ?

the movie is not about the causes yet about the results

even if it did, the movie was not trying to be inteligent funding all it's facts in science... i don't get the people who watch this movie and start spitting shit like, this makes no sense whatoever... :facepalm: jeez, are we there yet?? i don't believe so...

Here's the thing, stupid people are not destroying the world, they are not the ones making nuclear bombs and crashing the economy on purpose.

it takes a slight bit of narrow mind to actually dislike this movie because of that

stupid people believe that all those things are normal, like people starving in africa, it's a normal thing, it happens since the begginings of time....

 

stupid people think we can't live without money, and if someone tells them so, it won't make any sense

 

 

PLUS, stupid people only UNITE for stupid CAUSES

nah im not trolling, i suspected that you had this scene in mind, but to assume that he implies that stupidity is genetically transmitted is underestimating judge. he shows the parents' lifestyle after all.

oh my how pretentious was this director/writer trying to make us all believe that stupidity is genetically transfered, does this guy believes i'm stupid enough to watch the rest of this movie :facepalm:

On the other hand, making nuclear bombs and destroying the world etc. is pretty stupid.

i actually think it's very smart of him (if it was intentional, lol) to make that movie feel kinda stupid, it's like he wants to fuck with you, to present stupidity as attractive somehow. it reminds me of starship troopers in that way, where verhoeven makes you care for his fascist protagonists.

but if intelligence isn't genetically transmitted in the movie, then why does judge invoke evolutionary theory in the beginning of the movie? why would, then, the fact that stupid/poor people have more children and rich/smart people have less children be relevant at all to society being dumbed down if he wasn't referring to genetics?

 

please explain this movie to me.
