Starship Troopers

I love it and I'm not sure why.

TooOne21 · May 12, 2004

You make a good point.

I found this movie to be kinda cheesy.

However, I found it very entertaining and I had to buy it. I really do like this movie.

When ever it is on TV, I watch the whole thing too. :thumbsup::thumbsup:

edit: hah! seems to be the general consensus that most like this movie inspite of thinking its a bad movie.

i thought it was a good movie...very entertaining. especially the fight scenes

I watched the first five minutes of it, then it became absolutely unbearable for me to watch it, it was not campy, exiting, scary, suspenseful, funny or interesting, it seemed to me that it missed it's mark altogether.

Loved it!

I guess I'll buy it on DVD with my eBay Anything Points that I earned on my eBay Mastercard. Earned $24 last month

Yes. It was also entertaining. Veerhoeven is one of my favorite directors.

Don't tell me you liked Showgirls?

Even with the naked girls it was still unwatchable.

Even better: Starship Troopers 2

Yes, and a unisex showerscene as well

that is how a real military should treat their troops! but on second thought that was just a move, the chicks i had in my unit their faces could peel paint.

The boobs on the redhead chick are AWESOME. They were so good, I had to cover my 13-year old's eyes when it got to that part. I didn't want to scar him psychologically by letting him think boobs could look that perfect in real life.

the 2nd one sucked donkey stuff. It had bad acting and no plot...wasn't even scary even though it was supposed to be a horror flick. The actors were totally different and the slim plot had nothing in common with the original. I don't even know why they called it SS 2.

but back to the boobs, they were awesome, I think I already said that though...

Action was really good too(in the tent especially).

I'm sorry, but that red-head has small, saggy boobs (Don't believe me, do a search for Dina Meyer on Google Images with safe-search off and see for yourself)

It's a good "turn off your brain" movie. Nothing incredibly deep, but gore o' plenty, special FX and teh bewbies make it entertaining.

yukichigai · Jul 29, 2004

My friend and I saw it in the theaters when it came out. We spent the entire time sitting in the back, laughing. It was good, but definitely satire. Just like the Heinlein story. It's very clear that it's poking fun at 50s war propaganda films and the "government knows best" mentality.

The whole thing is an allegorical refference to wars of the past, particularly WWII. The bit with the meteor attack is an obvious allegory of Pearl Harbor, the bugs represent the demonized versions of the enemy that the government portrayed any opposition to be. It's actually remarkably deep if you look at it closely, though with a certain amount of violence and boobies to keep our other interests piqued.

Damn. Now I want to go get the movie on DVD.

Hey, who mentioned Roughnecks? I heard from a friend that it was flippin' amazing.

What part of, "it was good," did you not get?

How could you bump this 2 month old thread? Booooooo

Either way, I own Starship Troopers, and I believe it's a fantastic movie. Quite possibly Doogie Howser's finest role, aside from his ass kicking wussy part in Undercover Brother.

I saw it again on TV last night and decided to post about it. But like the good ATOT'er that I am, I did a search first for Starship Troopers and found this thread and bumped it instead of starting a new topic.

Starship Troopers (the novel) >>>>>>>>>>>. Starship Troopers (the movie)

They're almost nothing alike, actually.

Starship Troopers (the novel) began the discussion in school that led me to join the military. Certainly not from falling for propaganda, but because of the seriousness of civic responsibility. I cherish that book. The movie was crap for the most part (except the boobies, my god she's hot).

MAME · Jul 29, 2004

I remember the animation (Roughnecks). I saw just bits of it but damn, it looked pretty freaking sweet.

The movie was pretty decent too. Gonna go google for the red head's tits!

Heh, after lurking on ATOT for long enough, I've learned that people will jump on you for just about anything. That's why I like to end my posts with a beer and a smile, because really, I'm not looking to pick fights over the internet. I just really like beer.

Atomicus · Jul 29, 2004

My lit teacher taught us to view it with a Neo-Nazi theme. Oddly enough, he was right. The flag, the speech by that old dude which I forget when he was addressing the other nations, and the uniform.

EDIT: Talking about the first movie.
