Stupid is As Stupid Breeds

 After listening to part of the latest episode of TWiT, I became very interested with the film they were discussing, Idiocracy. While not Oscar worthy or even start-to-finish-laugh-your-head-off funny, it gives a downright frightening prospect of where humankind is heading.
The plot revolves around a very average (average intelligence, average everything) American soldier, played by Luke Wilson, chosen to be part of a suspended animation military experiment designed to preserve the world's brightest minds, best entrepreneurs, best whatever. But, like in many movies dealing with freezing someone, everything goes awry (my new favorite word of the month) and he ends up being frozen 499 years more than what was initially intended. He wakes up to a world where the number one TV show is a man getting pummeled in his nut sack repeatedly and the year's Academy Award winner for best picture is a 90+ minute movie of a farting ass and the global population has devolved into, well, idiots.
I can't help but think that we're halfway into this tragic future. With sites like YouTube giving access to morons to share their stupidity with the rest of their kind and Internet anonymity giving uneducated bloggers (ahem) their soapbox to take opinions they pulled conveniently out of their own assholes and post them as facts removing all accountability for being a half-wit.
Anyway, before this post becomes a full-blown rant, watch the film. Buy/rent the DVD or, if you're too cheap, torrent the motherfucker. Now excuse me, while I try to help keep intelligent people away from the endangered species list and procreate as much as I can. I suggest all of you smart people do the same.Labels: Film |
