  • Back to the boat!

  • ZURG RUSH

  • Did you know. Starship Troopers was made specifically to look like Nazi Germany.

  • how do the bugs know the ships are in orbit??

  • @Issus38 the brain tells the bugs what to do it also has physich powers so it can sense them above the planet.

  • @Honorharringtonfan ah, that clears it up

  • A couple of Banelings would have worked better than Mass Zergling.

  • Oddly enough, if you look at how the Mobile Infantry is fighting and their infantry formations, it seems THEY tried to zerg rush the ARACHNIDS.

  • WTF, Handheld nukes???

  • If only they had siege tanks....

  • it's spelled Klendathu .-.

  • i just love how the rockets can fly completely wild but then hit their target perfectly

  • @grimsurvivor They are radar guided, They swirl to capture the targets radar profile from many angles and ensure a more accurate hit. The missile also can be programed to use radar to guide itself down a cave or tunnel. as you can see later in the movie.

  • i bet some firebats would have helped against those zerglings

  • Someone obviously didnt take stopping power as their perk...

  • What planet are they supposed to be on? Obviously it's someplace with livable atmosphere and temperature.

  • holy shit. just like halo. takes like 7 clips to kill one.

  • @Tbagurdrumset94 LOL, yea but these assholes don't have Mark IV or Mark V armor. Mark 6 would have been great :( .

  • 4:26 dude the Zerg are VICIOUS! THIS is what I want to c!

  • @Talentroy85 SC 1 armor would have been a minimal requirement.

  • jewjewme dies and his arm and leg gets cut off

  • jewjewme dies and his arm and leg gets cut off

  • they need gun ships.

  • soo... pixilated...

  • its Klendaatu

  • keep in mind, this is the first real battle these soldiers have ever fought in...in fact, it's supposed to be the first real battle of the first space war humans have EVER fought-and they underestimated the bugs very badly. i'm suprised that i hadn't realized how dumb it was to not have any tanks. if i remember, in the original novel, this group was supposed to clear out a "safe" area for a "heavy weapons brigade" to land-but the "hwb" landed in the WRONG PLACE and were slaughtered!

  • LMao Mexican dude rushes in and pwns but then dies :(...

  • If they all have shotguns on their weapons why don't they use it?

  • bug off! 3 people are the marine at 4:28

    

  • bug off!

  • this movie is amazing! its the best out of the three. thumbs up if you agree. GO ROUGHNECKS!!!

  • So even though they refer to this planed as big K, you spell it with a C......"facepalm"

  • those soldiers are panzys i understand why they run but only one or two of them actualy know how to shoot and run

  • A fucking minecraft character has more reasources than they do.

  • Sir!! They are shitting at us!!

  • I think starship troopers is one of the closest depictions of what we will be like in the future.

    Militaristic, fascist/communist civilization hellbent on war on anything and anyone and its own people are little more than conscripts and fodder.

  • @DarkArtistKaiser Thats what it was like in the past...so why would it be like that in the future

  • @HatersGonnaHate1000

    If were just as aggressive, angry, and focused on doing anything for the sake of our own gain back than, and we still are now, what says we will change in 1000 years? Its taken us over 4000 years to get this far and were still the same in nature.

  • @DarkArtistKaiser Don't forget we run at the enemy like WW1 British soldiers.

  • @DarkArtistKaiser reminds me of warhammer 40k

  • @DarkArtistKaiser kinda like now

  • @TalonIIV

    Pretty much, yeah.

  • @DarkArtistKaiser Hella ironic that the original book was trying to make a perfect society rather than the total opposite that it's portrayed as in the movie.

  • @Abignalessuccessor

    I know, I read about that. What I want to see in the future though is how a military based society like this crumbles at its seams. The term "He who lives by the sword dies by the sword" has been more true than some people believe.

  • @DarkArtistKaiser I think the book is a better depiction of the future. Modern soldiers are better equipped than the MI in the movie. In the book they wear powersuits with wrist-mounted flamethrowers and atomic missle launchers.

  • @Truth118

    So they are, but what of the people? They will remain slaves to a machine that sees them as fodder.

  • @DarkArtistKaiser That a cynic's way of looking at it. Civilians are Citizens that have less say in governmental affairs, such as voting. Society seems to run decently well in Starship Troopers, minus the bug meteorites.

  • @Truth118

    So did Nazi Germany. Sure it looks like runs smooth, but don't think that the reason for why is either ethical or moral.

    The thing is, they have to serve in the military to vote. That basically means that they are treated subhuman until they "prove their worth." They are dying so they can vote, for a government that is a military dictatorship(Which I am sure much of history will show is never democratic) and using them like cannon fodder.

  • @DarkArtistKaiser A government that requires its populace to serve in the military in order to vote would be immoral and unethical nowadays because it would be a war against other human nations. In Starship Troopers, while it may not be a morally sanctioned approach, I think it's feasible and logical in a Species vs. Species conflict. I take the concept of a world after democracies have failed with a grain of salt. It's Science Fiction afterall.

  • @DarkArtistKaiser Im ok with Facism but not Communism.

  • @DarkArtistKaiser It seems more fascist than communist. So I guess it's run by the Tea Party.

    BAZINGA.

  • Best sci-fi battle scene in a film EVER. Seriously, the Star Wars battles are just crappy CGI simulations. Atleast this one used a lot of extras for the battles rather than just have CGI.

  • they have mini nuke but yet they use BB guns to fight the giant insects....

  • hope they got anoff ammo and troops and camra men

  • hope they got anoff ammo and troops

  • Oh i forgot to mention. This is the future and they are still using flares? A Night battle with no Night vision equipments? Total epic failure from the start.

  • @warnation101 So since it is the future they have to have completely super high tech?

    Not to mention this was made in the nineties, it is not like people thought that the tech would be very advanced in the future.

  • @Big5000K Errr. Are you saying that during the 90's the makers of this film didn't or could not possibly thought about tanks and Night Vision goggles? As far as I know. Tanks are used since, well I don't know. World War I and the first use of NVG's is during World War II.

    So I'm pretty sure the makers of this film has knowledge of those simple military equipments.

  • @warnation101 Eh, I said that wrong. I meant that they would have no way of telling how tech would advance, if they had tanks then I doubt they would know how to transport them. Also, if they used all that it would ruin the purpose of the scene.

  • @Big5000K The book had Klendathu being a screwup with infantry in powered armor. Verhoeven hated the book, which is why we have idiotic scenes like this whole sequence. Apparently in the future, we bloody forgot everything we've learned about warfare since WW1, and we decided the whole nightvision gear, grenade launchers and crap you could find on soldiers in 2003 was too futuristic for whenever the hell this movie's set in.

  • @Wafflepudding This is not supposed to be an insight into modern warfare.

  • @Wafflepudding its a movie, whos to say ww1 happened in the st universe, also aliens has exactly the same problems, do you have that too?

    if you do great it was shit

  • @SullyMediaProduction Um, Robert Heinlein, you know, the author of the ST universe. In fact there were 3-4 world wars in it. It was a fun sequence, but it was still stupid. Verhoeven wanted it to be stupid, the movie's a stealth satire of fascism, it wouldn't be good if the space nazis started being reasonable and winning.

  • @Wafflepudding true

  • @Wafflepudding hate*

  • This is set in the future? Have they ever heard of artillery bombardment, tanks, air support or perhaps attack drones?

  • "You smash the entire are, you kill anything that has more than two legs. You get me?"

    "WE GET YOU SIR"

    Favorite line of the movie.

  • Is that Higgins behind the camera?

  • this movie is so horrible its not even funny haha

    the fight are what make it worth watching...even though they kinda suck too

  • @anim8er7 mmm yeah.... but the music is epic... use that shit for a Battlefield or Call of Duty. XD

  • Its Klendathu not 'Clendathu' :))

  • dont they know they will be facing bugs and not human

  • did they had an actual strategy or was it just "run and gun everything"?

  • 'cause Vehicle Support is for loosers

  • The bugs artillery are... farting insects??

  • Ah the beauty of satire. Of course their tactics are shit, and their training is a joke, and they are poorly equiped. Of course they get owned and of course the ycan't aim down their non existing sights (cause their rifles have none). Quiet a few people missed the point on this battle scenen and overall movie.

  • KILL THEM! KILL THEM ALL! 3:46 ^_^

  • i like that one guy you want some get some get some OMG MY GODAMN LEG!!!!

  • lol 1 soldier die and everyone is running like scared little kids and they supposed to be soldiers in the future xD they cant aim for shit and wtf they only shot 1 bug if the bug is killing one of them otherwise they yust run

  • This is not Star Wars freakin nerds, this is space war for real men and real women, laser guns and the force are for sissies.

  • All that training and they forgot to aim down the sights or how to properly concentrate their firepower.

  • zerg rush.

  • @DerBetrachter or tyranid attack..or assault from any other hive-minded alien race

  • @DerBetrachter

    Tyranid Swarm

  • @DerBetrachter Mass marines? 1:35

  • @TheAirsoftAssault starport - medivac - drop FAIL

  • instead of going through all of this why not just use the deathstar?

  • what's with all the skipped parts??

  • i love how all these people are people and not some fake army.

  • wtf happens to the guy in the backround at 5:54? did he die or randomly trip?

  • Armoured skins?

    we send 5 or 6 tanks in there and they would probably get overun, idk why they even sent in troops, we would just have to sit there and blast them repeatedly with bombs from planes.

  • Judging from the fact these bugs have bullet proof exoskeletons, you'd think we be sending Soldiers with more high caliber ammunition or even try using anti-vehicle weapons on them

  • @alexiaNBC They don't have bullet proof exoskeletons they just have distributed nervous systems which makes it hard for them to take them down. You blow a leg off or or claw they shrug it off and keep coming either because you just took out ONE nervous system or they don't care because they are just a hive mind that listens to orders. The Real Problem is they should have been using explosive tip casing like the Pulse Rifle fires in Aliens, which would blow their limbs off after a few bullets.

  • I've been reading all these comments and its really pathetic. i loved this movie when i was a kid and still do. ok so theres no plasma guns or amazing armor? who cares this was one of the best movies of its time with some of the most amazing visual effects of its time. And i seen a comment on why are they still using bullets? that would be so retarted if they didn't use bullets humans=bullets aliens = plasma lol. this is original thats why its such a good movie read the book first then talk.

  • Someone call in the storm troopers!

  • Damn, their military tactics sucks. Infantry without any kind of support assault giant bugs and get cut to shreds. One would think that just sending in tanks would have been a better idea :P

  • @Juzz92 one would think on d-day you could just bomb them too right? but thats the infantrys job sacrifice. and like the captain says in the ship "were first wave" first wave usually doesn't have support because they don't know what there up against or what the enemys capabilities are. and with those plasma cannon things shootin down all there ships that would be a waste of tanks cause they would get shot down in the air

  • Also, USE THE FRIGGING UNDERBARREL SHOTGUN! Rico uses it ONCE in the entire movie and it is insanely effective, it just tears them apart. Its one of the only things that bothers me the entire way through the movie, im just screaming at the screen "JUST USE THE FUCKING SHOTGUN!" there probably is some reason why they dont.

  • @Cloud6556 Uses it twice actually methinks. Doesn't he use it at the outpost battle?

  • @Cloud6556 use more bullets and has a less effective range

  • @Sifter158

    Oh sure its less effective at range, but the rifle appears to do barely anything to the bugs, there are also many situations where they are at extremely close range to the bugs and could have used it.

  • @Cloud6556 true but what would they do if they were out of range and switching takes time plus time to reload instead of just the general rapid fire and shock of auto mode

  • Hmmm needs more "For the emperor!"

  • Klendathu bro not Clendathu

  • i guess that the bugs where hungry

  • mt god these guys got more fucked then the russians in stalingrad in 1942

  • bad intelligence kills good soliders!!! (but it kills the crap ones even faster)

  • "remember your training..." yeah, the training that taught you how to shoot from the hip. good lord, the pilots and the scientists have a better aim than the soldiers!

  • 0:38 huh I guess halo wars had no inspiration.

  • it's klendathu ,moron.

  • wheres the siege tanks and hellions when you need em?

    really now they should have stimmed.

    StarCraft referances FTW.

  • Okay the year is Hella old in this movie. WHy do they even still use bullets? I thought they could at least have lasers and plasma rifles.

  • Would it be cool if some developer made a modern game of this for next-hen console and PC, fight bugs in waves or whiskey outpost style game mode

  • @callofdutyguy9  thats what ive said :D.have a sick game of this with amazing graphics and shit.

  • no not the camra guy!!

  • 2 people didn't make it back alive!

  • 2 people are not citizens.

  • why dont use presticede against em....lol

  • Jeez, a couple million cans of Raid would have done the trick...

  • The US army invades Iraq

  • @onedeadcat LMAO.

  • Why the hell are all those comments about Star Wars on this video?

    Star Wars had lame laser technology, too much geeky speech and the weirdest battle suits ever, this movie is much better for the realism of an army with guns with bullets, more realistic, with the real results of an ambush and most of it, no techy-speechy, no space laser battles and soldiers whose acts like soldiers, not robo-dancers who shoot, hide and shoot, and the force?, that's a joke, just hypnotic psychic weak powers.

  • zerg rushing the zerg as terran?

    that never ends well............

  • question how can bugs shoot plasma????

  • @loufalou2007 because its a movie.

  • Isaac clark seems to live getting stabbed by aliens, send him out there.

  • "To fight the bug, we must understand the bug!" No Sky-Marshal. You must use properly-supported troops.

  • @wilmanric1 In the book, they actually had proper support, with mechs etc, and didn't do mass attacks like this. They used more tactical approaches.

  • It was a massive charge

    It was a beautiful charge

    It was an epic charge.

    And poets will forever write of the beauty in this FAILED charge.

    I've heard of a weapon dealing with planets like this.

    DeathStar.

  • damn... they nid some weapons and armor upgrades... stim also..

  • kamera man: just keep on filming its just a alien XD

  • "It's an ugly planet! It's a bug planet!"

  • to be honest, i dont see the point in wearing their combat vests. The bugs can just slice through like a needle on tissue paper. Its really just slowing them down.

  • i find it weird how their "training" consisted of playing Laser Tag, Throwing Knives, and Team killing

  • @ramjet94 Read the book, it is far better. It's still on the Marine Corp reccomended reading list.

  • @ramjet94 noob's form of strategic thinking I guess XD

  • @ramjet94 i find the entire movie to be weird.

  • 3:26 WTF is the guy on the left shooting in the air? noob

  • 1:34 Clown plane much!!

  • Throw Noble Team in there then the bugs would have wished they never attacked Earth.

  • @Deathofblades inorite?

  • this movie was so awesome when i saw it for the first time, but now that i look at it again why they will send only light infantry? no armor, no air support, no artilery, makes no sense....

  • they didn't follow infantry tactics or use common sense because it makes the battle so much more fun to watch. Who doesn't enjoy a good, hectic battle against giant bug like aliens, featuring infantry armed with nothing but light assault rifles?

    Shit was so awesome when I was 15.

  • I'm wondering how the bugs managed to declare war with the humans.

  • @subscriber44 Why DECLARE war? pearl harbor much?

  • @subscriber44

    In the book the Bugs were far more advanced then they are in the movie, and had a starfleet of their own

  • @snakes3425 Then why didn't they make the same idea for the movie? It would have been far more interesting.

  • @subscriber44

    The director confessed he never read the book

  • @snakes3425 Hahahahahahaha! xD

  • @snakes3425 are there books? where can i find them?

  • @PWNarmored

    Starship Troopers was based off a novel by the same name written by Robert A. Heinlein which you can find on Amazon.com plus a minatures/RPG game based on the movie

  • Its Klendathu lol but you got the idea

  • thats alot of soldiers in one ship.

  • Poor camera man just got to close but was dedicated to his work morita rifles are bad has a shot gun and machine gun

  • Ah fuck, I can imagine how it feels when that sharp beak slices through flesh and bone. When that soldier thought that the bug was dead, it made its last stand and hit the dude right in the leg! PAAAIIIN!

  • seriously, who else thought of starcraft when seeing this other than me?

  • @th4Guy77 I thought of Warhammer 40k.

  • Fuck that Michael Bay advert it slows down all of my videos.

  • He was the most god damned dedicated cameraman the world ever saw.

  • @TWKinzer yeah, he just kept shooting not minding anything even his reporter's death.

  • @ 5:54 lmao @ guy getting owned by a ditch XD

  • @ShindaDesu He got up,ran like hell.And got promoted to te fastest runner in the federation

  • no wonder the bugs wanted to wipe us out we are a facism state lol....

  • They Officer that said "Remember your training, and you will make it back alive" ironically died first.

    Someone forgot his training.

  • @diegoM027 and their training was for military human war not bug war with spears for limbs most fast and strong as shit.

  • @diegoM027 Hahaha ROFLMAO

  • @diegoM027  xD

  • @diegoM027 Some guy said something cost him an arm and a leg. His limbs are torn off in this battle.

  • @diegoM027 in which it did he die i cant find it !

  • @MrYui66 the guy that died at 3:12

  • fuck the tanks and soldiers nuke the damn place thats wat i say its a giant desert it wont be fucking missed

  • @12igon6 You fucking cocksucker. This is just a movie. You really think that there is a planet called "Clendathu" with huge bugs? -.- Oh my god, what the fck do u think if the creator of the movie just said "nuke the damn place" and detonates a hydrogenbomb, how long movie would it be? 5min? Idiot.

  • lol he cries no no no to the bug like it has emotions or will let him live

  • Fucking retard you NEVER put you gun down

  • LOL retarded camera man... who in the right mind would go there near that bug while holding the camera.

  • @joshy39769 CNN Journalist?

  • So a race thats advance enough to have warships don't even have tanks

  • @Dereksilavong they probably do but this is just the infantry. Not the cavalry. Besides, they understimated bug defense capabilities so they think they can just shoot them down like live targes. Wrong.
