   "3001" centers on Joe Bowers, an average American who is selected
   for a top-secret hibernation program that finds him waking up
   and living among a society 10 centuries in the future. He finds
   that civilization is so dumbed-down that he is the most intelligent
   person alive.

Cool. Office Space was brilliant. I hope this is good as well.

Methinks you missed the point of the post...it sounds a whole, whole lot like a certain show...

If the movie has a robot, a cyclops and a talking lobster...I think Matt Groening can get his lawyers on it...

No, no I got it. Of course Fry certainly isn't the smartest guy around.... :)

not really, Fry is not exactly portrayed as "the smartest person in the year 3001." I dont really go crazy for King of the Hill, but this sounds like it might be funny.

Well there was the Arthur C. Clarke novel 3001 where.... I can't believe I'm doing this but... Spoilers for the 2001 series

Frank Poole, the second astronaut from 2001, is found frozen in space and revived in the year 3001. The concept isn't original enough to sue over unless it is _very_ similar.

Yeah, but you gotta admit...when your movie seems a lot like your lead-in show...it's kinda funny...

I guess not. He could have chosen a different year, though. (Imagine Joe coming out in the year 4000, in LA, where children are the only people around, the sky is green, and people shoot each other on the freeways with automatic weaponry. Wait, that could be 2000, though ...) -- Christopher Heckman

Am I the only one who finds it ironic that Fox is making a movie about the dumbing down of society?
