I always thought that the people behind the movie never read the book at all. At most they read a synopsis of the book or had someone tell them about the book. The never understood the technology, social commentary, or philosophy that formed the basis of the book and explained the political system, which is nothing like fascism at all, that the book proposed. If anything their system is more akin to a Platonic Republic or some other modern take on distribution of political power. Seriously, it’s not even military rule. You serve to be a citizen and get the right to vote…but anyone could serve regardless of ability. In America such a concept is in practice as military service can lead to citizenship for foreign born migrants.

Aye...as entertaining as PV's take on it might have been at times, I'm still waiting for a real version of Starship Troopers. I think the thing that hacked me off the most was the depiction of the Arachnids as these techless animals who only managed to kill marines because it took multiple clips of ammo to drop one. They had technology in the real story and used it. The Marines had power armor like Ironman (not exactly like Ironman but pretty deadly as such). I was hoping to see that war.

@mattrobson3603 3 ай бұрын
@@varthelmThe Arachnids in the ST movie made no sense as animals. As a species with a similar tech level and communication ability to humans, they were competitors for worlds and resources. As animals with unusual morphology (what evolutionary pressures produced the Tankers, let alone the Plasma Bugs?), they shouldn't have been on multiple worlds at all, let alone been any sort of danger to Earth. I saw it in the theater and had a good time, but I too would love to see a more faithful adaptation. Something that had a feel more like Full Metal Jacket, but with powered armor and orbital drops.

WhatCulture got it wrong on Starship Troopers. The novel and the movie managed to be a satire which is ironic because the people that produced the movie never read the novel. In fact that script, which was not originally related to the book, was adapted to include some material from the novel.

The book is a great read. All this whining about it being fascist is just wannabee commies of the critical nature that hate ANYTHING that's the slightest bit anti left wing. Verhoeven is just one of those raw capitalists that pretend to be a commies while actually being an elitist one percenter that gets rich off the masses in the freest society on earth. Starship Troopers was an absolute disaster of a joke of a movie no matter how you look at it - satire or no. At BEST it was a shitty remake of Robocop.

1) Starship Troopers the novel was not pro fascist. Totally aside from the argument "portraying and praising are not the same," the society portrayed in Starship Troopers was NOT AT ALL FASCISTIC, and was far more Constitutionalist than anything. It simply postulated a society in which you were required to do two years of civil service (of any kind) in order to gain the right to vote. BUT if you wanted to do your two years, the government HAD to find a job for you, and HAD to honor moral considerations (such as pacifism) and physical considerations (such as handicaps). So literally, the only thing preventing anyone from voting is a lack of interest in working a "lower class" job for two years. (The chief non-citizens we see are actually upper-middle class, and discourage the main character from joining on a "why waste two years of your life" argument.) 2) Heinlein was portraying this society, not praising it. In one scene, the history teacher asks his class "Why do we have this system?" He then shoots down every idealistic answer, basically saying, "yeah, but statistics show that people who do their civil service are no better in any way than people who don't." The history teacher's "reason we keep this system" amounts to "it hasn't created any problems, so there's no impetus to change it." That's basically Heinlein saying "No I don't believe limiting votership to people who work for it would produce a magically superior society. I'm just using it as the backdrop for a story about a kid joining up just before a war." 3) The reason people have trouble with the idea that Starship Troopers the movie was satire is that it was BAD SATIRE. (Also, most people going into a theater have no clue who the director is and what other movies he's directed. Get out of here with "It was Paul Verhoven, so obviously...") If you strip away the PSA-style military propaganda and the anit-militaristic boot-camp scenes, Rico's story is a fairly standard action movie. Rico wins. Rico's team (Team Fascist Earth) wins. Rico does not suffer in any way for supporting his fascist government and waging a war of invasion against the enemy bugs. There are no obvious flaws to the fascistic society. In good satire, the flaws of the system are exposed, and those who partake in the system suffer for it. But if you look at the PSAs, they're terrible, off-kilter, and in every way opposite of real fascist propaganda. Except, of course, for the "I'm doing my part" bit, which was copied shot for shot and word for word from a 3rd Reich propaganda film. (Meaning, Paul Verhoven was less adept at mocking fascists than the actual fascists.) The movie doesn't know whether it wants to be a heroic action flick, or a satire of fascism, and it is just mediocre at both.

Idk if it was All Out Monster Attack or a different one but a better jab at the 1999 Godzilla was the movie that not only canonized it into the actual Big G Universe by having ‘99 G appear but having him be defeated in literally 5 seconds by Godzilla. He jumps at Big G, gets tossed aside, blasted, and that’s it for the fight. 😂

The Red Chinese (represented by "Mr. Ling" in the movie) backing Goldfinger was a change from the novel as well: Goldfinger was a Russian SMERSH agent in the book, suspected by M to be its Treasurer/Paymaster. Communist China was also SPECTRE's client in 1967's You Only Live Twice.

3:20 "At most two hours before the Army moves in"? The location referred to as "Fort Knox" is the United States Bullion Depository located adjacent to the military base of Fort Knox, Kentucky, Fort Knox, known as the Home of Armor (meaning TANKS). The Depository is bounded on three sides by the Army base, and on one side by State Highway 31W. The only entrance to the Depository grounds is on the OUTWARD side of the entrance road to the military base. The Depository and the Entrance Gate for the fort are within shouting distance of each other, so at the first sound of the depository's defensive .50 cal machine guns, there would be a phone call from the guard house to the base commander, and about 15 minutes before the MPs arrive well outside the perimeter of the depository to arrest anyone who looks suspicious, and about 30 minutes after that that the ARMED M1A1 Main Battle Tanks roll in to make sure NOTHING leaves the area without permission. (The delay is in getting the live ammo from the armory and loading the tanks, you don't leave a tank parked on base with ammo in it.) For anyone who makes it INSIDE the perimeter controlled by the Treasury Department, may God have mercy on their souls, for the Depository guards, who are part of the Treasury Department, and not part of the military, are also NOT bound by the Geneva Conventions; they WILL use .50cal weapons on personnel, and they are NOT required to accept surrenders. Fun Fact: The base Officer's Golf Course is located next to the Depository, and there are a plethora of golf balls left abandoned next to the Depository's iron fence, behind a wire stretched around the Depository, three feet outside the fence. That wire marks the legal boundary between the base and the Depository; anything that crosses that wire CAN be shot at by the Depository guards up on the building's walls. They don't bother shooting the golf balls (unless they pass through the iron fence), but the rumor is that they WILL shoot off the hand of any dumb Lieutenant who reaches past that wire to retrieve their ball. It's considered a rumor because, to date, no Lieutenant has actually been dumb enough to test the rumor.

Punchline about the smartness of nuking gold in goldfinger. Gold is a noble metal, so it wouldn't react to a blast, other than melthing a bit. And it wouldn't matter if it was a dirty bomb, because only the most surface bars would be "covered" with radiation that can be cleared with soap and water, because not only is gold noble, it's a very dence and heavy metal that is the perfect medium for not giving one damn about radiation. Clean off the alpha dust, and everything else is cool.

@@HariSeldon913"noble" in chemistry means non reactive. Helium does not react to any other element other than helium. All of the far right portion of the periodic table are called "Noble gasses." meaning they do not react to any other element in nature to create new molecule. Gold has those characteristics. Gold does not react to other elements as far as I know, and if it does only under significant energetic forcing. That's what makes gold ACTUALLY valuable. Gold don't rust. Gold doesn't decay, gold doesn't transition states. It's Noble, it's something all it's own. I often refer to Nitrogen as a "practically noble gase" because even though it DOES have numerous molecular combinations in nature, it requires a great deal of energy, that's why virtually every nitrogen molecule can be turned into a high energy explosive.

Starship Troopers is a 200 page book. Unless you have a genuine reading disability that's a rainy Sunday afternoon. Yet critics of the book insist it's fascist propaganda based, not on having read the book themselves, but because of a review a critic wrote back in the 1960's who apparently could see hidden messages in the story that even the author didn't realize were there.

@@TheTsengMaoNo it's not. It's an analysis of various forms of governnance. There is nothing satirical about the Mobile Infantry, it's an opposing mirror image against the society that existed at the time. Heinlein knew good and goddamn well what he was doing by valorizing service, and Starship is a far more honest opinion of his general philosophy, until he got into the sex stuff later, than some of his other books that are misinterpreted, "Stranger in A Strange Land" is great, but THAT is a satire. Read his stuff before he started to get locked into the sex fold, and it's all the same. The importance of service, the importance of learning new things, the importance of courage in the face of fear, and the growth that you create even if it means that you die. It wasn't until his older years that he started playing with the common culture of the late 60's into the early 80's with hedonism. And THOSE were, at the start, satires. Starship troopers was an example of the how best to create the perfect, through the use of extreme tropes, which is common in all sci-fi.

Starship Troopers by Robert A Heinlein, was so much better than the book. They turned a guy who dies within the first 2 pages into Rico’s replacement female love interest. The book is better, same thing goes for Asimov’s I, Robot. Will Smith’s version is just crap. Or why not look into the original version of Wanted, the story got thrown out the window although they kept the names. The Troopers had POWER ARMOR in the book, how is this new one better, seriously how ? Sometimes the original was perfect and doesnt need someone’s touch added to it, sometimes it does, The Italian Job comes to mind, but mostly its just about how to short change the author to maximize profits because why do things the right way when you can steal it from somebody else - its why there are hardly any new ideas in Hollywood, that dirty word again, Profits.

Your definition of "mature" is different than mine, I think. I believe you're referring to sexual content, which I do not necessarily object to but don't think it necessarily makes a film "mature". I also think that the idea that the film "The Green Knight" somehow improved on the original is hard to defend. The lead in the film never seems very altered by his experiences. He's just the same likable, awe struck guy from beginning to end. And the movie doesn't capture the humor that permeates the original. It is beautiful to look at, certainly.

Shortly after moving the government decided to hollow out a mountain and turn it into THE military command center in his neighborhood. He got a lot of hate because everyone misinterpreted the books purpose. To prove he wasn't a fascist he wrote Stranger in a strange land. This book inspired the hippy movement.
