This movie is about a man (played by Luke Wilson) who goes on a government hibernation experiment, and when he wakes up 500 years later, he finds that everybody is stupid.

It was directed by Mike Judge.

I love this movie. It completely reflects my life long philosophy of the de-evolution of humanity....and it's funny.

I thought that movie was really good and does show that maybe America can end up like that one day.

Hahah, that was a pretty funny film. It's a shame it didn't get a theatrical release, but go figure.

I loved the intro:




But I have to say, the best part was, ironically, the part that I feel bad for laughing at... "OW! MY BALLS!"

Great movie, I have watched it maybe 10 times, I loved the de evolution of Fudruckers, and I am intrigued by the full body Latte at Starbucks

The Fox, the company who distributed basically killed it by showing it in only 135 theaters across America. Of course it's now made back it's whole budget (and then some) on DVD, similar to what happened with another Mike Judge film, "Office Space".

They also didn't screen it for critics, so critics that wanted to review it had to purchase their own tickets. Of course every review said the film was excellent.

I really liked it as well, there were loads of sight gags and references that were really funny.
