fun garbage.

I love movies like this. Never get old.

Has anyone seen the sequel?

coppertom, you don't post enough.

I like ST, but Total Recall destroys it.

This thread is overdue.


I'm just not some little girl from Buenos Aires anymore.

I don't know that I'd call it "garbage": there are some pretty clever threads that run through the movie.

I passed out watching this movie in some bitches living room this weekend, while everyone else was playing poker. Good times.

I think this may be my favorite "bad" movie ever. Of course you have to ignore the fact that it is based on a pretty complex book.

There can never be enough Paul Verhoeven films in the world.

The book was very interesting.

It's not a "bad" movie, though. It's an intentional satire that purposely portrays itself as a soap opera.

Still, again, I have to mention that I think Robocop and Total Recall are better examples of Verhoeven's talent for mixing fun action, hilarious comedy, senselessly graphic violence, and brilliant satire.

It's no Robocop but I watch it almost once a year. I do love watching those bugs rip people to shreds. It really is a fabulous movie. The gore is spectacular. I even remember watching it in the theatre in University. My RA came into my room and said that there was this movie that is right up my alley playing on campus. I'd heard of it and thought it would be terrible so I dismissed it. If memory serves me correctly, I ended up watching it 3 nights in a row. A bunch of pot and beer beforehand had my friends and I rolling in the aisles night after night.

This movie's underrated.

It was the Snakes On A Plane of the 90's as far as great B-Movies go.

I like the satire in the movie and the subtle touches of humor (notice that the Intelligence officers look like Nazi SS), but it absolutely sucks compared to the book. They took the extremely awesome soldiers and tactics of the book and replaced them with bug food in plastic armor, and there's none of the philosophical and social commentary that really defines Heinlein's point.

she gets her tats out. good stuff.

I can't forgive these things:

1. That chick gets a hole in her shoulder as big around as a BASEBALL bat, and moments later is throwing her arms around her friends without a care.

2. She loses a friend/boyfriend/lover...but this is cool with her.

I get that with b-quality movies you gotta suspend reality, but this movie would not have suffered from the loss of these two elements.
