[Incompetent]

*Sigh* People in hollywood must enjoy butchering good books.

Edit: the only redeeming feature of the first one was the music.

[GreyFlcn]

Wekll you do have to agree

Maxes and HART draw a lot from starship troopers ;P

[SlyMarbo]

your WRONG

brenda Strong Signed on again. But as a new character given that her former one died

[Black]

Black, settle the fuck down ;)


do i have to ???

[Phaelon]

Man that is old as heck news. IMDB always has the scoop on what is happening.

In defense of what hollywood does to books, its almost required. An author has to write completly different than say a screenwriter because most authors have to use the readers imagination to play out thier story where as screenwriters get actors and all kinds of special effects. so yes a book is usually going to seem better because its your imagination thats creating the scenes not someone elses. most literal translations of book to screen are horrible movies (trust me I've seen quite a few in my american lit classes, if you'd like a few examples feel free to ask)

but anyways back on topic, I am an american consumer. I want to see guns, boobs and explosions. Starship troopers delivered all that plus lots of dead bugs. and I can't wait for starship troopers 2 :D ;)

[FlakMan]

I've never even heard of half these actors

[Form4n]

It bothers me that theyr making it a straight to video movie. It might just ruin it with a possibility of bad acting/effects/whatever else.

I loved the first one and the book aswell, the book was different ,yes, but the movie was good aswell. Still gona want to see the new one tho.

[Incompetent]

OMA, I don't have problems with them making some changes, it's neccesarry and I recognize that. I do have a problem with them taking a few names and the most basic elements of the setting then making something which has almost jack shit to do with the book.

[Red October]

Watch the second movie actually be good when in comparison to the first.

[OneManArmy]

nah, that whole "straight to video" means instant crap. that thier movie budget is like $50 and a bag of cheetos.

[xuur]

big guns, space ships, pretty girls, big nasty bugs blowing up and a co-ed shower scene....Im good to go.

cant be worse than that P.O.S. movie 'Cabin Fever' I watched this weekend.

[firecrackerNC]

i only liked the shower scenes with the girls and when the girl got fucked in the tent,Id fast forward to that part and never even watch rest

[EmuJokes]

im not sure if any of you guys have ever thought about it but if you have watched the movie as much as i have, you start to see really really big similarity with starcraft
Subtract the protoss and you have almost the same thing
watch the movie again and i think you will see what i mean. but thats if you dont see what i mean of course


planetside owns

EDIT: who here bought the dvd :rolleyes:

[SlyMarbo]

ok Starship troopers (the book) and for that matter War Hammer 40,000 (which i hear people accuse of ripping off from Starcraft) have been around for 30+ years now... which is stealing from which?

[Dharkbayne]

That movie sucked. Worst. Acting. Evar. And the football thing? ... :/
The gore and shootery was win though.

[arctik]

I loved the first one...

[Ait'al]

OMA You are the man! SST 2 is going to be great. It's suppose to air on the STARZ channels Arpil 28th I do believe. Watch it. I loved the tv show too. NO MATTER WHAT ANYONE SAYS IT WAS GOOD. :mad:

Catachan sucks. =P I made a Cadian army based on SST Movie, then made a Marine army based on the tv show SST

[Everay]

Book was awesome for its political thoughts, movie was aweseome because....boob guns starships and co ed showers.

though, it was interesting that in the book dizzy is a guy and dies in the first 5 pages.

and i bought the SST DVD.

EDIT, and i looked at the cast, i know a few of those actors, one from a sci fi show, and the old guy was from Not Another Teen Movie.

EDIT and it looks like the "skinnies" or at least thats what they called them in the cartoon are going to be in it. i dont remember their name from the book.

[SilverLord]

Starship Troopers "2" is in production.:clap:

[EineBeBoP]

*Sigh* People in hollywood must enjoy butchering good books.

And the --err "shower" scene. Gotta keep clean, right? :brow:

But yeah 1st Sucked the big nuts. Book was pretty good.

[Sputty]

Its not coming out to the theaters, its coming straight to Video/DVD.

There's your answer right there. It'll suck for sure

[Batousai]

This post started out pretty rough for me but it seem to come together at the end.

oh yea to all those people who said wrong forum, you all know what to do :brow:

[Octavian]

Ah the joys of having n00bs flaming him and the movie at the start of the thread. We were all n00bs once, even myself. But I've learnt that I must grow out of that.

Anyway, the first movie scared me, but I'm older so I might see it. If any of you say it's good.

[Dharkbayne]

It... SCARED you? How old are you? 4?

[Octavian]

I was 6 when I saw it. I wasn't used to people's hands being shot.

[Robot]

watching people get gored in silly ways or seeing guns shoot or boobs jiggle can only be endured so many times before it gets boring

[Octavian]

You see Dhark? I meant that I was so bored with the movie, that I became quite scared of the worthless piece of crap.

[Everay]

boobs jiggle can only be endured so many times before it gets boring

someone is covertly gay!

[OneManArmy]

seriously, I mean if that was true I would of stopped playing Dead or alive 3 a long time ago. I would of stopped playing Dead or Alive beach volleyball a long time ago as well ;)
