    Movies Starship Troopers: The bugs did nothing wrong

    Are you thinking of Roughnecks? The series takes inspiration from both the movies and the book, and it was one of the earliest CGI series out there (cost like a few million per episode in the 90's, apparently). Sad thing is that these days you could do the same on the Unreal Engine for a...

    Giant network of Brainbugs using their combined telepathic thinking to do the trajectories, while a legion of Plasma Bugs shitting out enough plasma to fire off the asteroid like a bullet? I dunno.

    Proton torpedo up the butthole. :p Yeah, originally his film had nothing to do with Starship Troopers: He just wanted a "space marine versus giant space bug" film (and the original title, IIRC, was "Attack at Outpost Something"). Someone recommended him Starship Troopers due to its...

    IIRC that's not actually said in the movie; the shower scene is basically "you need to be a citizen to have kids" (unfortunately, she got eaten on Klendathu after she fell into a tunnel and was dragged away by a Warrior, so no kids for her, sadly). But, on the other hand, it does make sense...

    Movies Starship Troopers: The bugs did nothing wrong

    Everything about the Federation is "anti-hero as a protagonist"; how they treat their citizens and the casualness about human life, the outright fascism (which is, amusingly enough, a thematic parody of it), religious persecution ("Mormon Extremists" being, ya know, people literally just trying...

    Fair enough, but the Federation being anti-heroes is pretty much true in the first film without taking HotF, Marauder, Inv, and ToM into play. Being the "good guy" of a story doesn't mean you have to be a hero.

    If anything, the Federation are anti-heroes, and given what was revealed about the Bugs in the third film (their motivations), the Bugs are basically selfish, Lawful Evil antagonists.
