/* ---- VIDEO INFORMATION ---- */
Welcome to the Heavy Spoilers show, I'm your host Paul and this video we're breaking down Starship Troopers.
-
Released in 1997 this was a big staple of my childhood with the movie becoming one of my favourites from the decade. I loved the over the top action, insane space moments and the coming of age story about our hero Johnny Rico. Now at the time the subtexct completely went over my head and when watching it as an adult I realised there was a completely different layer to the movie that my 9 year old brain didn't pick up on. Paul Verhoeven is a master of satire and for me this rivals his classic Robocop in terms of subtext and parody.
What I love about the movie is that you can enjoy it as an over the top action flick or watch it for it's more cerebral and metaphorical comments. Playing up the glorification of war, propaganda and a society centred around military rule this movies aged excellently and there's so much to unpack from it.

It's crazy that the CGI in this was made 30 years ago and not only holds up, but is better than some of the trash we see now.
-
"Based off the back of the novel" is a hilarious turn-of-phrase for those movies that have only a passing resemblance to their source material. Love it!
-
How many are here because we are avid Helldivers 2 players and the algorithm brought us here??!? FOR MANAGED DEMOCRACY!!!!
-
In the novel, the author plays a trick. You think Juan ‘Johnny’ Rico is Hispanic, but in the the end of the book, you find out he is Filipino. The point the author was making is, that in the 23rd Century, race won’t matter. Also, thanks to mass migration of Irish, English, Italians, Germans, and other Europeans in the late 1800s and early 1900s, the country was one of, if not the, most white countries in Latin America. The director admits he did not read the book, and barely used the book for inspiration.
-
The death of Dizzy still hurts to this day. I got to see this in theaters and the scene where Rasczak catches Rico and Dizzy and bed and gives them 20 minutes got huge cheers and howls in the theater. Dizzy was always best girl.
-
Michael Ironside absolutely steals the show, brilliant. Always a win. His line "They sucked his brains out" is one of the best in movie history.
-
Only here for the Hell Divers 2 backstory.
-
"Its okay because I got to have you" gets me every time
-
This is one of the few sci-fi films, that not only stands the test of time, but actually got better as time has passed.
-
I think that the deaths of Dizzy and Zander are essential to the plot. Dizzy represents a happy life outside the military for Rico and Zander does the same thing for Carmen. Both their deaths will drive the characters to be more career focused. They have no social lives now. Their life is the military. It is quite sad.
-
The first invasion happens on the planet Klendathu. It isn't very clear but after Jonny and Dizzy have their one night together, the MI troopers go to a different planet. Radcek briefs his troopers about a new Sky Marshall and a new battle plan, and tells Rico to "get your shit wired" for an insertion to "Planet P" this is where the brain bug is captured. I saw this in the theatre when I was 10 years old. It's my favorite movie. Great video, thanks! "MI does the dying, fleet just does the flying!"
-
You're all gonna find your Dizzys out there, kings. Godspeed.
-
I was in boot camp during 911, and when they came in interrupting fire fighting training to tell us about the planes hitting NY and Washington, I remember it having that feeling when everything gets frantic and you hear "we're going to war". That scene always resonates with me now
-
”THE ONLY GOOD BUG IS A DEAD BUG” Absolutely LOVE this movie👍🏼
-
I am the one who actually read the novel before seeing the movie. I absolutely loved both. Funny thing, they are so different and it took about a decade in between reading the book and seeing the movie, I did not realize immediately that the movie was related to the book.
-
As "cheesy" as this movie is, I can watch it over and over again, because it's that cheesy
-
"We're the old men Ace." anyone who has ever deployed in a combat zone knows that feeling. When the new guys show up and even though you may only be one or two years older then they are. you feel like you've lived a lifetime more than they have.
-
Watching Starship Troopers as a kid was awesome. Guns, bugs, explosions, big fight scenes....Carmen and Dizzy.... But now that I am older, it's even better. This movie was so much deeper than audiences and critics thought. Sure, it's a fun pop corn chowing action flick, but after realizing/learning about all the subtle details, it just ages like the finest of wines. On a side note it's been 26 years and I still feel like crap every time Carmen ditches Johnny, and of course every time Diz dies.

29/02/2024 I watched this movie when I was a teenager. Now playing helldivers 2 and here is were I landed!
