    It may be an overlong joke - but the joke is extremely relevant and hardly worthy of even consideration for this list..

    Mike Judge was on a podcast I listen to awhile back. I can't remember the specifics but they were discussing Idiocracy and MJ did mention that there was some kind of situation with the studio where the rug kinda got pulled out from under him from a budget standpoint, or something like that. Said he had some bigger ideas but at the end of the day basically had to make the best of what he was working with. Said that stuff aside he's happy with the film.

    I'm a big Mike Judge fan though. Maybe I'm biased. I can see the flaws with the movie, but still.... "worst of all time" level? I guess to each his own.

    The thing about Idiocracy is, and I am going to steal a line from Family Guy, is that it insists upon itself.

    Honestly, the point is to see what people say and debates about them. Don't read too much into it than that.

    Yes, he got screwed on some budget and distribution promises over that film.
    I would like to see what is considered "best" by anyone thinks this deserves "worst ever". Idiocracy is not for everyone - that's part of why it's so good.

    ..which is why I said its best served as an SNL skit. No, I didnt watch the whole film but I've seen enough clips to know that the entire point was made in those first 15 minutes and after that there was nothing more to be said. That's why it makes the list....there has to be a reason to want to keep watching it. Yes, the joke is relevant and I reference it a lot myself; that doesnt make it a good film.

    You honestly think Idiocracy deserves Worst All-Time status having admittedly not even seen it thru to the end.?! That's absurd.
    The message of the movie is made early on but it still successfully delivers a complete tale - start to finish - with steady laughs throughout. Anyone can state any comedy is not their type of humor and that would be fair enough, and while this movie's message is made early it at least has one - as opposed to something totally mindless like say Hot Tub Time Machine or Neighbors etc. which are just fine on their own if just come for the gags..
