He Wakes Up To Finds All people Are Stupid And He Is The Only Smart One Of Them

[Music] welcome back to fox recaps today i'm going to explain the movie idiocracy released in the year 2006. in the year 2005 the evolution of humans is at a turning point scientists have discovered that because we're already at the top of the food chain we have started to evolve backward this means in the next few decades humans will rapidly grow dumber the protagonist of the film is the us army librarian corporal joe bowers he is an average man with not many talents this is why he has been selected for a secret government project a military scientist named general collins has invented a hibernation pod that can preserve human beings for an indefinite amount of time he wants joe to be the first test subject to be locked in the pod so he can be revived in the future in a time of need they also require a woman for the experiment to make it more inclusive after many failed attempts to find a candidate in the military collins has settled on a prostitute named rita she was sent to the lab by her manager and boyfriend upgrade the experiment is highly classified so no advertisement is done in the media joe and rita are connected to ivs and locked inside the pods they aren't worried while going inside because the experiment is only supposed to last a year but little do they know that it's about to turn their life upside down soon after officer collins is arrested for being a part of a prostitution ring rita's boyfriend upgrade is also arrested and with no scientist interested in the experiment people forget about joe and rita's existence even the lab in the military base is closed and the building is demolished the pods end up in a dumping ground and joe and rita lay unconscious while the years pass as the scientists had predicted humans evolve backward year after year and turn more foolish at an outrageous rate the chart of average intelligence shows a downhill motion and people rely on scientists to work something out however the smartest minds in the world are busy focusing on experiments like how to reverse hair loss and prolong erections no one does anything about the stupidity rate and hence being an idiot becomes the new normal as the direct effect of the growing stupidity world problems pile up one of such problems happens to be garbage disposal in the year 2505 unplanned garbage dumping caused the great garbage avalanche to be formed one day without anyone knowing a landslide occurs joe's hibernation pod which was under a mountain of garbage till now slides down and ends up in a random house the house belongs to a typical modern idiotic man named frito pendejo he doesn't acknowledge the pile of garbage that has just entered his house and a stranger standing in front of him he is so lazy that his couch also has a toilet that way he wouldn't have to get up from his day's long tv watching sessions to pee when joe asks him questions he's kicked out the window joe still doesn't realize that he stepped into the future and comments that many things have changed in just a year he notices that people talk in a different language nowadays that consists of grunts and moans rather than actual words when he chats with the people as his normal self they chase him away after that he goes to a nearby hospital where only the people who win a game get free health care still confused he asks the receptionist about a doctor but she presses one of the many buttons on her desk joe feels weak and tries to drink water but in the new world water has been replaced by an energy drink called the brondo people think water is only supposed to be used in the toilets while they gulp the energy drink day and night after that joe is sent to a doctor who is just as idiotic as everyone else while in the office joe notices that the date in a magazine is 2505. before he thinks anything of it the doctor arrives and pretends to be smart by using different fancy words and butchering their meanings he also declares that joe is [ __ ] and asks him to pay a fee of 5 billion joe is arguing with the doctor when suddenly he notices 2505 a.d written on the bill only then does he register that he was trapped inside the pod for 500 years he starts to panic and doesn't understand when the doctor asks him about his citizen tattoo it turns out that every human born in the states has to get a tattoo that can be scanned it's an invention that helps the government keep an eye on the citizens joe doesn't have one so he jumps out the window to escape then he witnesses buildings about to collapse a garbage filled city and other things which make it clear that he's in the future his country is not what it used to be the economy is in deep neglect and a cloud of great dust has destroyed all farms and food but the most horrific part is the best movie of the year is a movie named ass that shows a person's ass for 90 minutes straight with an occasional fart throughout the day joe manages to survive but when the sun goes down he's arrested for being unscannable because he has no tattoo the guards are so aggressive that they pepper spray him before taking him to a court coincidentally his lawyer happens to be none other than frito the only problem is that frito has no idea how to fight a case whatsoever he makes fun of his own client and entertains the judge if his jokes are better than the opponents joe might be let free but in the end the judge declares him guilty in the meantime rita has also come out of the pot and is unaware that she's in the future she tries contacting upgrade repeatedly but he doesn't pick up the call somewhere else joe is taken to an automated tattoo place where he's asked his name he accidentally says that he isn't sure what's going on but the blunder causes him to be registered as mr not sure following that he's made to take an amplitude and iq test the questions are so basic that he thinks someone is playing a trick on him still he answers all of them correctly and is eventually taken to prison he has started to discover that he might be the smartest person in this world to test this theory he tells the guard he's supposed to get out of jail today without a single question he's let to walk outside but an alarm catches him in the act joe somehow gets away from the chasing police and goes to frito's place again although being the smartest man alive sounds great joe doesn't want to live in this world anymore he believes that someone has created a time machine within the past 500 years frido reveals that it's in the museum but he refuses to help joe tricks him into doing whatever he says promising that he will give him 8 billion after returning to 2005. as they discuss their next stop the police knocks on the door they escape through the window and drive to the museum on their way they meet rita and join her on the plan even after being told that she's in 2505 rita is afraid that her boyfriend is mad at her for being late it's evident that even in the smart world she was not the brightest person oblivious to the scanning system joe forgets to hide his wrist as a result his tattoo is scanned and the police find out his location fortunately for them when the cops arrive they have already run away from the car it is burned into flames by both police and the civilians all of whom do not know why they are burning the car frito then brings the other two to costco which has turned into the center of the global trade market it turns out that frito also went to the university of law in costco from there they have to take a metro to the museum but as they wait for it rita goes to the washroom and joe's tattoo is scanned yet again the entire costco is alerted of a criminal's presence the police arrive on time to arrest joe for some reason he isn't taken to the prison but to the white house the current president of the united states is president camacho he welcomes joe and instantly declares that he is the new u.s secretary of the interior because of his high iq after that joe is taken to the house of representin the president proudly announces that the problems of food scarcity and dust storms will be solved by their new secretary of the interior mr not sure he also promises to pardon joe's prison time if he solves the problem however if he doesn't live up to the promise he will be killed in the next cabinet meeting joe is asked to prove his intelligence he says a sentence with difficult words which is enough for the country's leaders to believe him a while later everyone is on a barren field which is the cause of food scarcity joe is even more desperate to find the time machine and is glad when frito makes him a map showing him the way to the machine however it turns out to be just a single line while on the farm joe discovers that the farmers have been watering the crops with the energy drink brondo he immediately suggests they start using water instead of an energy drink initially no one trusts his idea because they're used to using brondo for everything to make them go along with his plan he lies that he can talk to the plants and they told him they want water for a few days his plan is put into action however it causes brondo's stocks to drop to zero and half the population loses their jobs moreover not a single plant has grown till now which means his idea failed as a punishment for making people lose their jobs joe is sentenced to one night in rehabilitation he is glad that the punishment isn't severe but it turns out the meaning of rehabilitation has changed over time as per the law he will be chased by a large truck in an arena as the audience cheers for his death the punishment starts later that day and joe is made to go against a massive killing truck while he is in a small car it is sure that he won't make it out of the arena live rita is saddened that she has to return home on her own but right then she notices a rose plant growing outside she realizes that joe's idea has worked which means there's still a chance to save him she and frito rush to the arena and ask the cameraman to film the roses meanwhile joe barely survives the fight rita goes to the monitoring room and takes over the control panel in the end the blooming rose is shown on the large screen president camacho rescues joe right on time and pardons his crime in the following scene everyone is attending a party in the white house rita says that she doesn't want to return home because she likes the future better people here may be foolish but they are kinder to each other joe accepts her decision and resorts to returning home alone but due to his disappointment he finds out that the time machine frito told them about is a children's ride the president calls him onto the stage declaring him as the new vice president in the last scene we see that joe has been inaugurated as the president of the united states and rita becomes the first lady that was all from the video i hope
