[@Rikard_Nilsson]

weird thing about that scene is that Insects don't have hands, so it was still an exercise in futility.

[@SamuelTBrooks]

They weren't at war with the bugs at that point. They were training to fight other humans.

[@Rikard_Nilsson]

No, they were at war with the bugs throughout the movie, they even dissect drones in class and talk about how to kill them properly.

[@SamuelTBrooks]

They weren't in a formal state of war until Buenos Aires was space rocked. The Mobile Infantry until that time was mainly intended for human-to-human combat, which can be inferred from all their training being against human opponents and their weapons and tactics being comically ineffective against the bugs.

[@kingsteve8083]

It was seriously funny how ineffective they were. I love the movie but all the way through I was wondering why they didn't just nuke the bug planets to kingdom come in the first place; turn them into barren, lifeless rocks where any surviving bugs will just wither and die.Apart from the fact that the movie would have been over in 40 minutes, I mean lol.

Christ, the federation was fucking stupid for that one

[@jsd4544]

Underrated perhaps, but those who know, know.

[@lerouxle3]

@@JamesTAdams It wasn't completely stupid. At the strategic level yes, but at the ideological level, the tragedy of Buenos Aires and this monumental defeat contribute to dematerialize the conflict. The (factual) loss of life and the cost of war becomes immeasurable, but the symbolic wound deepens. War is no longer a rational matter, virtually open to debate, but a passionate one, a burning hate and a deep love of that hate. It should be remembered that, from the point of view of the Federation (as a sociopolitical agenda), citizen mobilization is the supreme issue, well above (without erasing it) military successes.

[@aguirronunbound]

It's the Verhoeven sci fi trilogy, a wonderful treasure for those who enjoy classic good sci fi.

[@StoneyHoliday]

And it is because he approached the scifi as a cosmetic thing. A very good one, but the heart of those films was a deep criticism of society. Robocop is about the corporatization of public entities, including the police. Total Recall was about corporate exploitation of foreign lands and what it does to the local population and Starship Troopers was about criticizing a fascist society completely out of touch with the realities of war.

[@MrMuel1205]

One of the best ever sci fi flicks. Given the source material is basically fascist propaganda, the film adapted it whilst ruthlessly mocking it. P.S. Robert Heinlein, the author, was a US Marine Corps officer. The Bugs are basically the Chinese and North Koreans. Whilst Chinese and Korean communism are awful, Heinlein seemingly believed that only a fascist state could defeat the Soviet Union and its communist allies. He was very wrong. Democratic systems did just fine. P.P.S. Heinlein seemingly believed the same thing as Nazi propaganda minister Joseph Goebbels who delivered a speech late in WWII. He believed that if Nazi Germany was going go be overrun by Stalin, it’d only be a matter of time before the weak, decadent democratic West was also crushed by Stalin and the Soviet Union. In the end it turned out the “weak decadent democratic West” was much stronger than the Soviet Union or Nazi Germany and won the Cold War. Both Hitler and Stalin were no match for Western democracy.

[@Spazturtle]

@@MrMuel1205 neither the book nor Heinlein were fascist, his ideal system of government was libertarian collectivism. One of the key points of the book is recognising that the act of voting is an act of oppression, by voting the majority is enforcing its will onto the minority. The purpose of national service (which is not limited to military service in the book) is to show that you are willing to be subjected to the same oppression that you want to be allowed to subject others to. Anyone who wants to be able to vote is able to, no matter how incapable you are the state will find some work that you can do so that you can complete your national service. The director of the film had not read the book so the film is a very loose adaptation which doesn't match the politics of the book.

HELLDIVERS 2 DROP SONG!!

[@robertbrown3064]

Almost every modern version of futuristic soldiers, such as "Space Marines" or "Orbital Drop Shock Troopers" trace their roots to Starship Troopers. The concept of putting on a suit of power armor capable of hugging a gorilla to death, with nuclear rockets mounted on your shoulders, then literally dropping into battle from orbit onto an alien world was completely new when the book was written in the fifties. I'm sure the sheer scope and intensity simply blew people away back then. I grew up with Star Wars, and I was still blown away the first time I read it. FOR THE EVERLASTING GLORY OF THE INFANTRY!

[@TheCornerCaseMan]
