verne: you know what I look for in a summer popcorn movie? RJ: I can't wait. verne: Something I desperately want to happen that could never really happen. rj: no one's ever going to make "catapult all the stupid people into the sun." Rj: once all the stupid people are in the sun, the movie's kind of over. where's act 2 or 3? verne: All you need is a long credit sequence where everyone left dances to the pointer sisters' "I"m so excited."
Ah, why’d they switch positions between cells 2 and 3? They trade places….Besides, this idea of stupid people into the sun is very much like several of the Pearls Before Swine theories proposed by Rat. There’s the Box O’ Morons, where all stupid people are in a box, or the Isle O’ Stupid People, where all stupid people are pushed off a cliff, only to trampoline onto a deserted Island.
P.S.- There could be a sequel. The Stupid People could be saved by an alien race, who comes to worship them as gods. Then, years later, the stupid people/alien offspring would return to Earth, armed with advanced alien technology…In order to take their revenge on the planet that exiled them…
