Alright you apes. Assuming his power armor is not available, what would Johnny Rico pilot? Also, Starship Troopers anyone?

Movie is wonderful in its own way.

Verhoven is a genius and it is a shame he has been blacklisted from Hollywood.

>>15354689
The movie is a mockery that shits on the themes of the book and is little more than pastiche of Aliens.

He's a poor little misguided, brainwashed fascist so some Zaku or Zaku-looking garbage pile.

I absolutely love how Carl's psychic abilities allow him to achieve UNDERSTANDING with the bugs, but instead of it bringing peace it's instead "It's afraid. It's AFRAID!" with the whole thing giving the humans a morale boost to continue the war (not that they needed one).

It's the polar opposite of Awakening of the Trailblazer's ending.

Faggot who only watched the movie.

It's always fun to see how buttblasted people get over the movie.

Ah yes the Fascist democratic dictatorship where women are equal to men in society and practices liberal capitalist tendencies. How could I forget.
>>
>>15354694
I always felt that people who say this don't understand to the concept of film as a story telling medium and why a direct adaptation of the book would be ill-suited for the big screen.

Or they simply never read the book at all.

It's progressive fascism :^)

It's a hard nosed republic, similar to the united states. they just don't have universal suffrage because they decided that it was the problem.

A direct adaptation would be difficult to do but the movie wasn't even an adaptation to begin with. It started life as an original script and the Director never read past the first two chapters of the book. As a movie on its own, it's an overall okay, but enjoyable B-movie. As an adaptation of the book it's terrible. It doesn't help that the Director passes it off as some sort of shitty satire of a book he has bragged about not reading.

>>15358259
better to think about it as an in universe propaganda movie.

Man, that music is cringey as fuck, what is this? 2005?

It's not really a parody of the book, it's more satirical of overly war-focused socities and what it does to a population.

>overly war-focused socities and what it does to a population.

None of that really translated into the movie, though.

dude thats why everyone acts the stupid fucking way they do in the movie

its great

all those propoganda adverts? the characters actually act like that.
>>
>>15362093
As a satire of that, it's pretty good. I just wish they hadn't tacked it on to the book and ruined our chances of seeing proper MI power armour.
>>
The power armor in the books is mo-cap so Rico would basically pilot a Shining Gundam with extra leg jets and 10 guns bolted on the back and shoulders
>>
>>15362487
You say that like movies aren't remade all the time.
