@Nightingale2814 ..then you realize.. what a bunch of shit actors they are and they don't make films like they used too.
And the theme tune is great, especially at the start.

@Nightingale2814 ohhh wait a minute they have corporal punishment, citizenship for soldiers and officers only, a society where the military IS the hegemony. There's no church, no state, just the military. Yeah this society sucks!
-
@coopsjc21 Not humanity. The military and militaristic culture. What this is a satire of is basically the tendencies of advanced visions of humanity that you typically see in sci-fi, coupled with the culture of military chest-puffing. I mean look at the society in Starship Troopers. It's a fascist society! You have NPH in a Nazi uniform at the end of the movie for crimmeny's sake. The whole movie is about making this society look all awesome with the fanfare but then you realize

@ilievich Does the book have pictures? I won't read a book that doesn't have pictures.

@Nightingale2814 Yes, you scaly tongue flicking mother fucker.
I still don't see it as "satire", I can't see how he's deliberately taking the piss out of humanity and what not, but it is a super cheesy film, maybe that's what he intended and maybe there's a fine line between cheesy and satirical. I can see how he is ridiculing humanity's faults, but that's just part of the film. You whales vagina.

@coopsjc21 Lizard? Is that an insult now?
And yes, it is a satire, the director's said as much and if you actually know what to look for, it's as plain as day. Paul Verhoeven's films are laced with satire, lampooning social and political ideals. He's friends with Stanley Kubrick for God's sake, in fact Kubrick's asked Verhoeven for advice. You....turtle. See, I can do it too.
Come on you apes, you wanna' live forever?!
