Idiocracy

Over at AICN, Quint has an open letter to Fox about Mike Judge's Idiocracy. This movie has been sitting in the can for a long, long time and now Fox has released it on 130 screens in 7 cities with no--and I mean zero--ad support. Go to the various Fox studio websites and the movie isn't even mentioned as being in production, let alone coming soon, let alone in theaters. In fact, so far as I can tell, Fox may not even have released a trailer for it.

Again, this is Mike Judge we're talking about. Maybe the movie stinks; I don't know. But shouldn't having made the funniest movie of the decade count for something? Actors work for decades on smaller accomplishments.
