What is Beavis and Butt-Head Do the Universe about?
Paramount+ has provided an official synopsis for the film, and it sounds exactly like what you'd expect a "Beavis and Butt-Head" movie would look like in 2022. Thank the high heavens.
A tale that technically spans two centuries, "Beavis and Butt-Head Do The Universe" promises to sit atop all future lists of the Dumbest Science Fiction Movies Ever Made. The saga begins when Beavis and Butt-Head wind up at space camp through "creative sentencing" from a juvenile court judge in 1998. Mistaking a docking simulator for something else (huh huh), Beavis and Butt-Head excel at it and are asked to join the space shuttle mission in a PR move. After ruining the mission, they are left for dead in space and end up going through a black hole and reemerging back on Earth in 2022, only to discover a very different world – and find themselves considered Buttholes of Interest by the NSA, the governor of Texas, and a highly intelligent version of themselves from a parallel universe. Also they almost lose their virginity, but don't.
