The worst thing about this movie is that it's true. :

"It is like writing history in lightning. My only regret is that it is all so terribly true"
-Attributed to Woodrow Wilson, about "Birth of a Nation"

You would probably think I'm a SJW. My sister loves the movie and made me watch it. Not everybody who watches it is overcome with the knowledge that it is prophesy. Some of us just realize it's inane.

I remember in a history class we saw a chart discussing the average number of children for people with varying levels of education and employment, from academics and officials right on down to the criminal classes. Steady increase in number of children. Of course, the chart was in German and dated from the mid-30s. /auto-Godwin

Why would their heads explode? Just wondering, never seen the movie. Deets, please?

The premise of the movie is that Luke Wilson's character, and another character who is a prostitute get cryogenically frozen and wake up in the distant future, where the everyone is ridiculously stupid. Because only stupid people breed

I finally got around to seeing this movie recently and it seemed weird that so many of the stupid people in the future were racial/ethnic minorities -- realistically I guess in the future there would be a lot more people who aren't white, but since the movie was all about how stupid the future is, it just resulted in some unfortunate implications, whether they were purposeful or not

(Anonymous) 2013-01-29 12:11 am (UTC)(link)
They were? Besides the president I remember most of the primary characters being white. Except Maya Rudolph's character, but she wasn't stupid.

The movie was okay (in my opinion), but I just can't stand how it sets people off on a "Dumb people are dumb, but I'm smart!" wankfest.

Well, as far as I can tell, the president of the USA in that movie was smarter than the president we have right now in my country, Spain. So I'm convinced Idiocracy was written by Nostradamus.

I think it'd make more people's heads explode on the premise that intelligence is purely genetic, as opposed to a result of education and upbringing.

Just tell them it's "why we need to spend more money on scholastic and social education, as well as funding for the arts" and even the twitchiest SJW would be happy.

I don't get this secret. I might be what you call a SJW, I watched the movie and it was okay - not bad, but I wouldn't watch it again. The only thing that actually bothered me was that the "average" woman, the prostitute, seemed so much dumber than the guy and... did she really have to be a prostitute?

(But maybe I'm just a bad, bad SJW because sometimes it feels like the movie has a point.)

I have zero constructive comments to give, but hot damn I love this movie.

(Anonymous) 2013-01-29 01:21 am (UTC)(link)
The main thing that bugged me about this movie was that it was clearly a dude's vision of the future. The only thing I remember that existed to potentially appeal to women was the bodybuilder newsreader, and...yeah, not so appealing.

Except the IQ and education level of the average person is increasing and has been since it began to be measured.

Come on people, eugenics went out in the 40s. Read a book.

(...Or is that the real subtle irony of the film? Only the stupid and/or uneducated start to panic that the stupid and/or uneducated are breeding?)

I don't think their heads would explode. They would treat it as kind of a stupid movie that was still funny at times - rightly so, because that's what it is. I'm not sure why you think their heads would explode - because of the sheer truth of it or something? Doesn't make sense to me.

(Also CM Kornbluth did it first by like 60 years SO THERE)

Let's be honest, OP. It doesn't take much to make a SJW's head explode these days.
