Either you read the book and you hated the movie,
or
You'd never heard of the book and you hated the movie,
or
you liked it, not having read the book,
or,
like me, you'd read the book and you liked the movie,
but,
either way,
Starship Troopers 2 is coming your way.

Adios :hat

Never heard of the book, and I enjoyed the movie.

Number two sounds interesting. Wonder what the story will be??

Oh baby oh baby oh baby.

About damned time too <img src=">

Read the books and my wife and I loved the movie so much we walked straight back into the next session.

Is it that Beautifully crafted? Not necessarily
Is it that true to the original? Not at all except there are bugs LOL

So why see it twice? It was funny and didn't try to do anything it couldn't achieve. Too many movies try to preach a message or claim a scale far beyond the reach of the director or the actors he has. This did neither and if you traded guns for swords it would be described as a swashbuckling good time <img src=">

My logic is simple: Any movie that starts with a TV reporter being ripped apart, has to be worth watching.

I know the RAH purists hated it, (much as the Tolkien purists hated LotR,) but dem purists be funny folk.

I can honestly say that I had never heard of the book, but I LOVED the movie! :clap I mean, anything with Denis Richards in it HAS to be worth watching - just for the eye-candy at least! :lol2

Seriously though, I loved the aliens - thery were so .. so .. UGLY! And the film was just so .. violent! :clap So, hopefully #2 is just as good.

You may now consider me Amused. :lol2
