I saw Idiocracy in the theaters as a teen and thought it was just ok. Saw it later as an adult and it’s uncanny how it parodies modern politics and became one of my favorite films.
Just cause it predicted dumb asses doesn’t mean it was good. You were right, it was just ok. I also saw it in the theaters and was super excited as I LOVED office space and mike judge
@@JLE1177 damn That sux be cuz I’ve been using, “Go Away I’m BAITIN” for years whenever anyone calls my name. Like forreal you bummed me out. Glad you’re right tho🖕🏿

Idiocracy has really blown up in popularity these last few months especially, it’s finally getting the recognition it deserves. Likely because people now see the eerie similarities between it & our terrible woke & stupid culture nowadays.
Man, dude got swole. He's doing better in his early 50s than in his 20s. Gen X is aging backward everywhere I look. Meanwhile, Gen Z looks like 65-year-old truck stop blowies.
System was different until around 2010…. You could have a bomb at the theatre that made its money back and more through VHS and DVD…. My dvd player and collection of dvds and vhs is in an attic now and unless the internet goes away will likely never be played again.
I'd never heard of Idiocracy when Netflix pushed it in my recommended feed something like 10 years ago. I absolutely love it, and have watched it so many times, and have recommended it to so many people. I'd always wondered how it was so off my radar when it came out, and now I know. Great interview!
Idiocracy is fucking BRILLIANT, as well as being staggeringly prophetic. On Par with Blazing Saddles and Young Frankenstein, . some of the few movie DVDs that I own. Ironically, they mention Shawshank Redemption as a movie that didn't do well when released. That was also true of the Christmas classic, "It's a Wonderful Life" and, to a lesser extent" Casa Blanca". And, "Chps", .. despite once owning a Kawasaki Police bike, (that was GREAT), I loathe the TV show but loved the movie.
An all-time great comedy no one has seen is "Hamlet 2". Steve Coogan is in his quintessential role, and it is hilarious from start to finish. If you can find it, definitely watch it.
Idiocracy was a trip. I only saw it recently after hearing it mentioned for years. Found out one of my late film buddies was an extra in the court room scene when I finally saw it. That's how sidelined the film had been.
I remember Dax’s “Hit and Run” fondly. Bradley Cooper’s character somehow getting taken advantage of despite only serving 8 months in jail. Can’t remember what kinda dude it was though. lol
Most people don't realize that Top Gun was only an OK movie. The few flight scenes were great but the romance story was half believable and the dialog was cheesy and bad.
Wild. I saw Fight Club in the theater multiple times. Amongst my friends it was a masterpiece. We were all devoted Fincher-files after Se7en. I am shocked that it didn't even make it's budget back. Everyone I know bought the DVD and Bluray.
Chips bombed because it was a movie targeting the folks that watched the show and it was made for newer audiences. The same thing happened to Starsky & Hutch and Dukes of Hazard. You can’t count on the old audience and shit on the show at the same time. It is the same mentality that is killing money making franchises left and right. Pick an audience and cater to them, but don’t expect old fans to like it when you change the lore. Calling them racist or sexist won’t magically make them pay to see your “reimagining” of their show. Obviously Dax didn’t call folks out for not liking his movie but he did change a large portion of the lore/vibe of CHIPS.
i didnt realize how many amazing movies did so bad at the box office. no wonder so many shitty movies keep getting made they obviously cant use the box office numbers as a gauge of how good it is
I don't understand the hype for Top Gun Maverick It was just area88 plus the death star run None of the trainees did anything, none of them died. The movie would be five minutes if you cut all the filler out. The go to cruise, cruise does the thing, the end.
@@dthill96 I also did. Also enjoyed Without a Paddle. People think a movie has to be some timeless classic to enjoy. For what it was it was good money spent.
I saw the first screening of Fight Club at a matinee at a theater in Berkeley, CA and there were probably five of us in attendance. The next week I brought my friends for a 5pm screening and it was sold out until the 11pm show. What a great word of mouth film, and well deserved at the time. The marketing was brilliant....'what is Fight Club' - it didn't pander to the audience, it held back, something we'll probably never see again for theatrical releases. And the CHiPs adaptation is brilliant, I assign it to my screenwriting students often.
I liked CHIPS as a movie but not as a “CHIPS” movie. I hate when writers/directors take old IP and totally change the vibe of the show for a movie. For example the “Dukes” should never have been made as it was so disrespectful of the original series.
I disagree... Maverik is not better than the first Top Gun. The opening scene of Maverik is a man surviving an ejection from mach 10. Maverik is Fast and Furious level.
I saw Idiocracy in the theaters as a teen and thought it was just ok. Saw it later as an adult and it’s uncanny how it parodies modern politics and became one of my favorite films.
Saw it a few years ago and was like damn this aged well. Talk about forshadowing.
I wanna say it came out when I was 12-13 maybe, I remember thinking it was kinda funny. Once you get older you notice alot more.
Idiocracy is like wine. Not that great a week after bottling, but will only get better with age.
Just cause it predicted dumb asses doesn’t mean it was good. You were right, it was just ok. I also saw it in the theaters and was super excited as I LOVED office space and mike judge
I saw it on daytime tv in 2008 2009 sometime. I couldn’t believe I had never heard of it, I was blown away
Idiocracy is an incredible documentary, what do you mean
You probably thought this was funny
@@ZaidenKobe no, just factual
@dirtmcgirt757 I laughed. But what is funnier, is how you're likely part of what makes it a documentary and don't even know it.
@@ZaidenKobe not as funny as you being bitter about it ;)
@@ZaidenKobeAnd likely jerk off the Andrew while watching this shitty podcast.
Without a Paddle is another great Dax Shepard movie.
One of my go to movies. I've seen it probably 10 times and will another 10 or more. Dax is awesome.
Great movie. The scene when the dogs got high was hilarious
Oooo ya soooo good
Idiocracy aged very well
Its a cult classic... Mandela effect though? That's Andrew just saying words and going yes.
PS idiocracy turned out to be a documentary
It's a 81 honda... how dare you
All highway
You're my people 😂
Cherry…! If you see one for under 10 grand, BUY IT! Don’t think, just buy it!
@@copperheadroad567 Are you interested in an 81 accord?
He was so good in Employee of the Month. Another classic movie!!
I liked it but it but if we’re being honest, it’s about as much of a classic as that ‘81 Honda he drove around in the movie. 😂
@@spbynumhow dare you?
thats the dane cook movie right?
Who’s anal ???
Vince Downey. Fastest hands in the southwest region. Face.
"let's go to prison" is by far the best movie Dax has been in. Not to mention Will Arnetts character is just great as well.
Hahaha I forgot about that movie. Loved it when it came out. It was dumb funny, rubber ducky
@@booch2912 Shake that body!!!🎶😂
Eskimo
Let's Go to Prison was directed by Bob Odenkirk aka Saul Goodman I liked it!
That was my introduction to michael Shannon, he stole that movie. He was frighteningly good.
bro, CHiPS was fantastic!
Watched this at my baby sitters every morning as a kid.
Wildly underrated movie and perfomances
Chips was amazing!
thought i was the only one who thought that lol
Go Away I’m BATIN
noooo the reason its funny is he dosnt use "Im" he says it like a caveman "baten!"

"Go away! Batin"!
almost to the point that his reguler voice sounds like a smart azz lol

We are living thru idiocracy
CHiPs is criminally underrated.
Yep. Vinny D as the villain, they shoulda done a sequel
Just like grandma's boy bombed, but it's a cult classic now, and the number one stolen movie from blockbuster
Damn people gotta stop stealing from poor blockbuster there's only one left. 😂
"I'm way too stoned to drive to the devil's house right now."
Dude. I've watched Grandma's Boy so much I've lost count. "My name is JP, I am a robot. I have a robot vagina".

No, it's just the kids found out about it. For all of us on Myspace, we've been using Idiocracy and the memes from it for a decade and a half.
when did you first see the movie?
It's a TERRIBLE movie. People need to stop pretending it wasn't just because something things in it are starting to become true
Man, dude got swole. He's doing better in his early 50s than in his 20s. Gen X is aging backward everywhere I look. Meanwhile, Gen Z looks like 65-year-old truck stop blowies.
Better living through hormone replacement therapy
TRT, not magic. All those swole old guys that get winded to walk up a flight of stairs.
He's openly talked about TRT and wouldn't be surprised as a former addict he was upping the dose a little bit.
Maverick had nothing to do with chips reemergence on Netflix lol… chips was actually a very funny movie! His pod and his wife helped him reemerge
I'm listening and I'm thinking Office Space, Office Space and then.
Dax says Office Space
Idiocracy has always been one of my favorite comedies.
Chips is a perfect at home movie not a great theatre movie
System was different until around 2010…. You could have a bomb at the theatre that made its money back and more through VHS and DVD…. My dvd player and collection of dvds and vhs is in an attic now and unless the internet goes away will likely never be played again.
Idiocracy, they live and demolition man are 3 great movies that are becoming documentaries that are getting closer to reality.
JUST PUT ON THE DAMN GLASSES!!!
If someone says “what’s your boggle” to me ima die
Go President Comancho.

I thought Hit & Run was a great movie
Idiocracy was an immediate hit on DVD just like Shawshank was on VHS. Movie theaters won’t die they’ll just become more boutique.
The leg crossing collision was bound to happen lol Dax is so dope been watching his movies for years
😂🦵🏼
An all-time great comedy no one has seen is "Hamlet 2". Steve Coogan is in his quintessential role, and it is hilarious from start to finish. If you can find it, definitely watch it.
0:38 everything in his power not to grab the guest*
Idiocracy is not a movie. It is a prophecy.
Add demolition man to complete the prophecy.
Idiocracy may have bombed at the box office, but it sure is considered a bit prophetic these days.
I fucking love Idiocracy.
Go away Im batin’- favorite line
Without A Paddle is a great film! "I'm not a boyscout, but I ate a brownie once."
Without a paddle was hilarious
True romance is another great movie that didn't get a big debut. True romance is a hidden gem that many people have heard of.
0:07 Sincerity works that way.
Office Space didn't interest me when I was a young man. Then after working in cubicles for many years the movie took on new meaning and I love it.
Hit and Run was a fun movie. Bradley Cooper was crazy in it.
Top 3 Dax movies in order - #1 Idiocracy #2 Let's Go To Prison #3 Chips
Idiocracy is the greatest comedy with a realistic view of our dystopian future.
Yo, Dax is looking really healthy and happy. Good for him!
Maverick is just Star Wars Return of the Jedi. 🤷🏻♂️
No, it is the first Star Wars
No, it is the first Star Wars
Sporting the almost Vintage John Varvatos Converses. Nice. Shame Nike turned them into crap.
The thing that will kill movie theaters is the insane prices
The role dak Shepard was born to play
Idiocracy was a trip. I only saw it recently after hearing it mentioned for years. Found out one of my late film buddies was an extra in the court room scene when I finally saw it. That's how sidelined the film had been.
I just watched idiocracy free on youtube

Most people don't realize that Top Gun was only an OK movie. The few flight scenes were great but the romance story was half believable and the dialog was cheesy and bad.
Braveheart bombed. They pulled it outta the theater and rerealesed it, and it did better. Shawshank, yes bombed. Two movies in my top 10 movies.
How has Dax not been picked up for some sarcastic super hero in marvel or DC? He's hilarious. James Gun could make him the next star lord.
Wild. I saw Fight Club in the theater multiple times. Amongst my friends it was a masterpiece. We were all devoted Fincher-files after Se7en. I am shocked that it didn't even make it's budget back. Everyone I know bought the DVD and Bluray.

Hit the nail on the head. More and more I go back and pick a favorite actor and rewatch all the movies that I can find they are in.
Idiocracy 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
For me, the Dune movies and Maverick were the best blockbuster movies I’ve seen in quite a while.
They cut the discussion about the "Mandela effect" interesting
I don't remember there being one.
@@JohannesWOW you can tell they cut it right when he mentions what he's talking about.
Idiocracy came out at the wrong place at the wrong time, if it came out in the mid 2010s to now it would have blown up
Idiocracy is so underrated. The older i get the closer to home it gets. 100 yrs from now it’ll probably be thought to b a documentary
Hit & Run.... I really enjoyed that movie.
i didnt realize how many amazing movies did so bad at the box office. no wonder so many shitty movies keep getting made they obviously cant use the box office numbers as a gauge of how good it is
CHIPS was a decent movie but it had some amazing motorcycle riding and stunts in it.
Boondock Saints wasn’t popular until like 10 years after its release.
Dax seems like a real cool dude. It sucks his best line is in a Dane Cook movie. 😂😂😂
"This is an 81' Honda. How dare you."
Hit and run is my jam
I haven’t seen a movie with Dax in it that isn’t a legendary movie to me.
Shawshank was in theaters at the same time with pulp fiction, Forrest gump, and jurassic park.. to be fair
I don't understand the hype for Top Gun Maverick
It was just area88 plus the death star run
None of the trainees did anything, none of them died. The movie would be five minutes if you cut all the filler out. The go to cruise, cruise does the thing, the end.
Idiocracy needs re-watching every 4 years

The hot cheeto movie made good money so maybe people do like chips
I saw Idiocracy in the theater.....my cousin was an extra in it. He's in the audience laughing at the film ASS! 😅
I wear anywhere from 13.5-14.5 size shoes and it is the worst...my size is almost never available in any shoes ever
Shawshank bombed because it came out the same month as Pulp fiction, Lion King, Jurassic Park, and Forest gump.
Idiocracy did not fail....it's a fucking classic and still hilarious to this day...and gets better as it gets older
I instantly thought Fight Club, obviously. So I was surprised it took so long to get mentioned. Office Space was my second.😂
3:36 Andrew got roasted
Idiocracy didn't fail, it has always been extremely popular. It's just being marketed to you as a failure.
I’m old af but I saw idiocracy at a military base in Okinawa on a random Saturday before going out and getting blackout drunk
I disagree... Maverik is not better than the first Top Gun. The opening scene of Maverik is a man surviving an ejection from mach 10. Maverik is Fast and Furious level.
Hit and Run's dialogue is so real feeling.
"Idiocracy" was great when it came out..... NOW, I find it straight-up prophetic :D:D aged into a masterpiece, basically :D
Starbucks, who knew?🤣
Chips is a super fun movie imo. And Hit and Run is an awesome movie imo! Both are up there in my rewatchable for fun category.
From the beginning I thought Chips was a great comedy movie....you and Pena nailed it
We love idiocracy! Such a great documentary!!!!
CHIPS was HILARIOUS!!!
Idiocracy and baby mama are my fav characters of his.
The hallmark of a great artist or scientist is that they aren’t appreciated in their time
Just wait. Someday Terry Crews is going to be president of the United States of America!
You mean Comancho Mt. Dew
