Boing Boing Staging

Paul Verhoeven's 'Starship Troopers' still fantastic fun

Starship Troopers - I'm Doing My Part

This weekend I rewatched Starship Troopers.

Robert Heinlein’s OG book has long been a favorite. The Paul Verhoeven take on Starship Troopers is a very different story in terms of technology, feel, and message. I love it MORE.

While the book is pretty strongly pro-military and pro-fascism, the movie is a massive lampoon of these ideas. The propaganda clips remain absolutely wonderful. The movie is worth rewatching!
