OT: I do dislike stupid people

[Slick]

AT, I totally recommend Starship Troopers. As said before, it's nothing like the movie so just forget about what you saw in the movie. Starship Troopers was recommended to me in grade school. It was my first science fiction book. The rest is history.

Regarding the Black Hole... I read a book called that and it was made into that (Disney?) movie. Are we talking about the same one? Where the mad scientist has a ship on the edge of a black hole. The mad scientist has figured out how to shield his ship from gravity and he has transformed all his human crew into zombie-like servants?
