I had to watch this film because P.Verhoeven was its director. He made brilliant RoboCop, Totall Recall and Basic Instinct. And yes, Starship Troopers was great. Casper Van Dien, Dina Meyer & Jake Busey did a great job. Critics gave many negative reviews to this movie but I think ST is one of the most underrated Sci-Fi films of the 90's (along with Strange Days, Alien 3, Them, Lawnmower Man, Virtuosity, FutureSport, The Time Shifters, The Apocalypse, The Arrival, Mimic, Virus, Space Truckers)
Before you call something "Fascist," you should probably know what the word means. That's not it.
BTW, comedian Rex Navarette mentioned that if they had kept Rico as a Pinoy (as he was in the novel), the movie would have been half as long, "because who better to kill big-ass roaches than a Filipino?"
Heinlein was just another war lover who never went to war, but damn he could write. I hope they make this movie again someday and do a better job of it.
Did you know that the main character of Starship troopers is a Filipino in the novel but Producers thinks an Asian actor is not marketable. So they turned the Filipino Juan Rico into a Caucasian Johnny Rico.
IMO the song isnt perfectly synched/clipped, the 'windows movie maker' transitions are a tad poor so detract from the flow, and the ending just doesnt feel quite right. But overall i like what you've done.
wow, i'm actually gonna have to partially agree with pavo on this, what a dumb fucking video you made here....of course military is life, what else is there? COLLEGE? lmao...
I love starship troopers! and yes, they did fuck up #2, cus #3 had potential with casper van dien's return as JOHNNY RICO, OORAH!
Wow, I didn't think ST could be a bigger steaming pile of shit. Then some retarded teenager put it to Linkin Park. I just shit my pants, that was so bad.
its such a good movie, wish they didnt fuck up number 2, then number 3 would have got a better budget cause i didnt think it was too bad, the religion shit was gay tho
Dude, Troopers is not about a Fascist Society, but a Libertarian Society fighting to get rid of the last remnants of fascism within and an ultimate communist threat without.
dude thats awesome I like the ending bcuz thats how they usualy do trailers for movies were it ends with a happier part of there life and i like that u put a facist society very cool trailer 5 stars
I wouldn't call that society fascist...definately VERY militaristic, but they do have an elected government...
The whole "only citizens get to vote" thing is explained much more in the book - there was a war on earth, and the veterans got together and rebuilt the government. They only trusted other veterans to put society's interest before their own, so they only let veterans vote. They thought that if a person had to pay a high price for their right to vote, they would use it carefully.
Many past Fascist Governments have been or turned into dictarships but it does not mean fascism means dictatorship. Elected Government can still be fascist, Nazi Germany was elected and supposed to allow other parties until Hitler decleared the Enabling act on the grounds it would combat communism after the Reichstag fire.
it is made up of a body with a single speaker and representative similar to the parlimentary system, only without opposing parties, but representatives nonetheless.... a lengthy comment written by a sociology student who should be writting an essay but is instead on youtube
i wouldnt say their a facist society though. there may not be alot of freedom involved but the system of government is still very much republican in nature (although not democratic) its citizens still are able to vote. were facist societies have in the past been marked by a dictatorship, this system of government is incredibly complex and multilayered...
", and like 1930s Germany, the citizens vote for fascism."
Its not Facist, simply selectively Democratic. It is in no way similar to 1930s Germany (Regular Democracy slowly coming under Facist control). Sure, only state service grants citizenship, but the book doesn't define this service as strictly military. Additionally, all state service is strictly voluntary, and freedom of speech, assembly, and conscience are guarenteed to all non-citizens. Its actually kind of an interesting concept.
The problem is, in the movie version at least, the leader of the Terran Federation is a military officer, which means the military runs the state. While in the book, the military and civilian government are separate parts of the government with the civilian government on top.

Go to the bookstore and look for the Heinlein shelf in the science fiction section. After you read it, you will admit that this movie is total shit.
