Fans of Borat and South Park might appreciate Idiocracy, Mike Judge's commentary on the dumbing down of America. It wasn't so much the plot, or the dialogue, or the acting - although they were all just fine. It was the detail accompanying the mockery, which Judge has clearly developed a talent for (remember the scenes with the printer in Office Space, how they were a total aside to the story but ended up some of the most frequently quoted lines, at least in my office?).
Suffice to say, I will never be able to eat at a Fuddrucker's ever again, and for at least a month I will laugh when I walk by a Starbucks.
