Re: OT: I do dislike stupid people
I'm not aware of a sequal to the book. A sequal to the movie is supposedly in the works.

Re: OT: I do dislike stupid people
Personally I thought the Starship Troopers book sucked. Whoever tried to write had obviously never seen the film, or wasn't paying attention.

Dirk Pitt books rock. But the actors that have played him have not been up to the task.

Yeah the name of Starship Troopers the sequal (book) is supposed to be something like "Combat Commmand" or something but I haven't been able to find it at all and am thinking I Just suffered from a bad joke

Well that just shows how bad it was. The guy who wrote the book obviously didn't get it all as I said in my first post, so they had to make the film to straighten him out. Hopefully now the film is out, ppl will forget about the book. |

OMG. That is just so horrible.. It is not even funny. Please; this joke has gone way to far.
Heinlin is one of the top SciFi writers ever; he is up there with Asimov and the guy who did Battlefield:Earth (Man, that was a good book...). His books are wonderful pokings and proddings at all number of things, with some wonderful and witty thought thrown in (porcupine defense... sounds like fun. How about telepaths on the ships exploring the galaxy? Classic.).
I mean, it is impossible to not like him, so please, cut the joke.
<note: edited to avoid comments that might get me banned if he was actually serious somehow>

Yeah, that was a great film. THat was the one with John Travolta wasn't it? Loved that film, probably the only scifi film as good as SST.
BTW, have you heard they're bringing out books of the LotR films? I bet they suck... |

Re: OT: I do dislike stupid people
I hate to say this, but I never read starship troopers. Nor did I read Battlefield Earth and we all know how that movie turned out. I did however read the Black Hole as my first big book without pictures, and I did that in the fifth grade.
