Just popped up in my feed. I loved Starship Troopers as a kid, not knowing the satire underneath. Anyways, it's a nice interview.

Funny reactions.. cool to see this hommage being appreciated.

I don't really like reaction contentin general, but it's awesome how much he's into it and how he lives his role. And not in a sad way like that prick from the sandlot for example

I don't typically understand react content when I don't see the relevance from the reactor to the content.

I like watching something like orchestra conductors reacting to Final Fantasy music or a lawyer watching a video of a cop takedown. That way they typically give some professional insight that I'm not typically seeing. Just seeing someone go "ohh" or "ahh" doesn't appeal to me at all.

That was fun! Thanks for posting that.

TIL there's a Starship Troopers 3, and by extension, a Starship Troopers 2.

Oh, there's more than that my friend! There's

Starship Troopers 2, which is more of a horror movie.

Starship Troopers 3: Marauder, which has big mech suits!

Starship Troopers: Invasion, and Starship Troopers: Traitor to Mars, animated movies.

Starship Troopers: Roughneck Chronicles, dozens of half hour episodes following the troopers' adventures.

I loved the first movie. Will watching the rest of them taint my perception of the franchise (I'm looking at the imdb scores and...ouch!)

[–] [email protected] 3 points 10 months ago

I don't think so, but I've only seen the movies. 2 and 3 were fine, if you go in knowing they don't have most of the same cast. My standard for sci-fi movies is pretty low, but I had fun. I also like the Tremors movies, though, so YMMV.

I haven't seen 2, but I have seen 3. 3 keeps that same kind of fascist tone, but by the end of the movie it has morphed into Christofacism. Plus cool robot suits. The effects seemed cheaper than the OG, but I haven't seen it since 08-09 so I don't know if they look much worse now or if they hold up about the same.

What a wholesome dude.

Hey Arrowhead, could we get a Casper Van Dien voice for our Helldivers? His stim voice line could be a play on the "come on you apes! Wanna live forever?" line.
