If you haven't seen the cult movie "Idiocracy", it might be a fun watch now. It's set in the future, but here we are.

From the creator of the office.
Fox pulled it so it wouldn't sell at the box office.

If you can find it, it's worth watching.

Especially now.

I see it on Amazon Prime and Apple TV+.
My google search says it should be available at that same price on YouTube.
Not clear about Hulu.

He hadn't heard of it, but jotted the title down and I hope he gives it a watch

It was definitely funny then but I think it’d just depress me if I watched it again.

I don't think it would be too dated for a viewing.
