Starship Troopers "2"

[OneManArmy]

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

I've never even heard of half these actors

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.

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

[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]
