I don't think Starship Troopers has a damn thing to say. Book or the movie. |
| Howard_Casto:
Yeah it's just dumb. Anything it tried to say would be ignored because it's so dumb. Kind of like if Bozo appeared before congress to talk about the economy.... nobody would take the poor clown seriously. |
| RandyT:
Meh. ST had an over the top comic book vibe like RoboCop. If you try to take it seriously, you'll choke on it. It was good for what it was trying to be. But it wasn't worth the sequels. |
| Howard_Casto:
Robocop was totally different. It was clever and everything that was over the top was done that way for satire. Except for the infamous "Mr. Long Arms" effect at the end, it could be considered a perfect movie. Starship Troopers was just dumb and didn't have much in the way of anything in regards to commentary, satire, or even character development. |
| pbj:
Yeah but it had some decent tits in it and the action scenes were enjoyable. Not everything has to be a meditation on the futility of human endeavor. One of the sequels (#3) was actually kind of similar to Cloverfield Paradox.... |
