Idiocracy and Team America: Two Classic Comedies That Hit Close To Home

Ойын-сауық

When Idiocracy and Team America: World Police came out in 2006 and 2004, no one would have ever expected how prescient both films would turn out to be. Of the two, Trey Parker and Matt Stone’s Team America probably had the quickest impact, as it satirized global events that were taking place at the time, making it a lightning rod for controversy. However, it was also a pretty big box office hit. However, Mike Judge’s Idiocracy ended up buried by its home studio, 20th Century Fox (now owned by Disney), with it essentially going direct-to-DVD. Yet, in the years following its release, it picked up a major cult following due to how it predicted certain things that would eventually come to pass. In this compilation of two of our most popular episodes of WTF Happened to this Movie, we take a look at two cult classics that have stood the test of time for reasons no one could have predicted back then.

    Do you really think they got offended and thats why they sabotaged the movie's release? Fuk no , even if they did , theres no place for feelings in big businesses. But their big affiliates did and pulled out and more were about to do the same , probably...Thats why they tried to bury the movie , nevermind that the director replaced all of the big franchises and their logo's' uniforms etc....yet they still decided to bury it out of fear. PS : Except Costco...they dont give a fuk , it seems.

    Team America had me from the initial opening shot, with the puppets within a puppet movie. It's such a brilliant f-the audience moment, cuz you know it's a movie about puppets, but you aren't quite sure how it's going to look on the screen. Then it pans out to actual puppet-France, in all it's stereotyped glory. *chefs kiss*

I even had a couple lunch dates with a sweet blonde who picked out the background places outside the office such as the restaurant , bar at the hotel next to us and the driving background. The fire in the movie was right outside my window. Loved the movie and it really hit the spot of the tech world in Austin at the time.

Then I watched the movie and realized that maybe I was a little too close to the joke. I watch whole Instagram videos of people getting hit in the balls and I have to admit it makes me laugh.

    Jodie Foster said that if there was one movie that she thinks everyone should see in their lifetime, it's Team America. Both of these movies are beyond fantastic! Mike Judge, Trey Parker and Matt Stone are all geniuses(and not the breaded and fried kind). The opening scene in Team America is one of the most brilliant comedy scenes in the history of comedy. Opening with a marionette being controlled by a marionette is so simple but so brilliant.

    Mike Judge has produced some of the most important movies and shows in cinematic and television history. Prophetic, prescient, and glued to the pulse of society and culture. This guy has whispered inevitability into everybody who would watch and listen and by now, most of those have resigned themselves to his doomful visions. And he's humble about it because any asshole should be able to tell how bad things were getting.

    Oh wow, this has been so helpful! I was finally able to put together the pieces that indicate I have been the victim of a Mandela Effect wormhole several years ago. I was growing more and more anxious as to why my recollections seemed to be wildly inaccurate. I was close to considering an intense course of theraputic analysis to attempt to identify the source of my psychosis. You see, in the real world (I suppose I should get used to calling it the other world) Idiocracy was a slapstick success. Not as a cautionary tale, but as a satire on doomsayers who could ever declare that such foolishness might be the fate of humanity. In this world, I suspect the film suffered because of the anxiety audiences felt in finding the movie hilarious, but specifically for reasons the film was clealy mocking. I can note one commonality between our two worlds. Apparently in both director Judge was approached concerning the feasibility of a sequel. And in both of them he replied "I don't see the point". However, I think we can see a subtle distinction.
