'Beavis and Butthead' on the Big Screen Again

"Uh...huhhuhhuhhuh...Can you see my guns in 3-D?"

Back in the '90s when MTV was still kind of showing music videos, the animated series 'Beavis and Butthead' was all the rage in my high school.  It inspired us to call each other fart knockers, while introducing us to the Great Cornholio and the phrase "kick me in the jimmy". 

'Beavis and Butthead' creator Mike Judge has plans to bring the popular pair of moronic teenage rockers back to the theaters this Friday, October 15th as an animated 3-D introduction to the movie 'Jackass 3-D' , according to slashfilm.com.  For those of us who have been longing for the return of the hilarious cartoon we only have to wait another four days. 

It was also revealed in July, that 'Beavis and Butthead' will be back on the air courtesy of our friends at MTV, which may have finally realized that certain age demographics don't like to watch reality shows about spoiled teenagers living in mansions or whatever the case may be. 

There's also recently been rumors about a live-action adaption of the series being made for the big screen, which me makes me cringe.  I just can't imagine that being any good, though Judge has proven he can make good live-action movies, like one of my all-time favorite movies in 'Office Space' and to lesser extents the movies 'Extract' and 'Idiocracy'. 

Do any of you think 'Beavis and Butthead' could be a good live-action movie?

I was already planning to go see 'Jackass 3-D' at some point, but adding 'Beavis and Butthead' to the mix will prompt me to line up for the movie on opening night.

idiocracy is the worst movie of all time.

@homeless dad - then you've plainly never experienced Uwe Boll...

I don't know if a live action Beavis and Butthead will be good or not. I guess it wouldn't be terrible. it couldn't be any worse than any of the other crap that's on TV.

I don't think that Mike Judge is a good director, though. After seeing Idiocracy and Extract it makes me think that Office Space was a fluke. All three movies were well written, and somewhat clever (maybe not Extract), but only Office Space was what I would consider a good movie.

Live action Beavis and Butthead = Very bad idea
