On a Purely Movie based opinion. Starship troopers wasn't that bad, and i could watch it again.

Now if we bring in the book it was based on, then it's an entirely different matter.

I just think of it was a standalone film so it doesn't disapoint me

Well, I haven't read the book, but I thought the movie was OK.

Probably because SST is the pet "Worst Case Scenario" of a Hollywood rendition of a sci-fi novel. But, hey, maybe in a few months, "I Robot" will steal the prize away!

It's true!! They always end like this!!

I think we're all getting our soapboxes polished up so we can debate which is worse in comparison to their respective books...And each other!

Thanks for that one dogscoff, that quote made me laugh quite hard!!
