So, I’m going to apologize in advance, here. My viewing of Starship Troopers is long. Really long. Like, several pages more than I intended. Sorry. My bad. I actually almost went back and erased some parts, figuring I was talking way too much and nobody could possibly be this interested in Paul Verhoeven’s goofy space movie. But, then, I figured ‘Well, I am,’ and that’s really the point of these viewings, isn’t it? To go over something you love with a magnifying glass and pick apart why it’s so cool.
I mean, yes, this is a ’spaceship movie,’ and I know there are plenty of people—including a few I know of who read this site—who are starting to zone out because they don’t like ’spaceship movies.’ I would ask them, though, to give me the benefit of the doubt.
