It would be interesting to see how many people who don't think Starship Troopers was the biggest pile of [censored] every put down on film actually read the book first.

In lieu of making the hilarious sarcastic comment I was originally going to make here, I'm going to actually be serious and point out that the movie was meant to be a satire of the book and the militarism Robert Heinlein espoused in it.



Would you like to know more?

Starship Troopers is great. Remember, this is from the director responsible for "Showgirls". He can do no wrong.

starship troopers swept the academy awards if i remember correctly... most respected film critics cite it as the greatest movie ever made. king kong is just a monkey trying to [censored] some girl and eat jack black, or some [censored].

This poll is terrible. Neither movie absolutely sucked, and Starship Troopers was actually pretty good.

Starship Troopers was [censored] awesome.

I didn't know it was satire, but it is kind of obvious that it was obviously on purpose over the top.

favorite scene:

[Ace is having difficulty with throwing knives]
Ace Levy: Sir, I don't understand. What goods' a knife in a nuke fight? All you have to do is press a button, sir.
Career Sergeant Zim: Put your hand on that wall trooper. PUT YOUR HAND ON THAT WALL!
[Zim throws a knife and hits Ace's hand pinning it to the wall]
Career Sergeant Zim: The enemy can not press a button... if you have disabled his hand. Medic!
