| Re: Robert Heinlein: Starship Troopers Yeah i was alittle too young then and i was disgusted by the bad acting of Casper Van something.
I got some of the things like the tv stuff.
Most time of time i saw only a horrible action movie.
Would be interesting to watch it now not only i will get more of the satire but also i know the story they make the movie of.
Funny enough i love the book and i get annoyed when i read criticts and readers dissing it cause it was glorifiying military. I think then did you read the same book?
Sure he had love for military but you have to see his ideas instead of complaining of the most obvious thing.
I almost laughed out hard at how current the book was. How little things have changed since he wrote the book.
Specially about the thing about the juvinile criminals. Here i always felt we are too easy on them. Then you see experts on tv complaining about they turned out to be dangerous criminals. Only one of the many things i liked about his ideas in the book. |
