fWotD Episode 2743: Starship Troopers (film) Welcome to Featured Wiki of the Day, your daily dose of knowledge from Wikipedia’s finest articles.The featured article for Thursday, 7 November 2024 is Starship Troopers (film).Starship Troopers is a 1997 American science fiction action film directed by Paul Verhoeven and written by Edward Neumeier, based on the 1959 novel by Robert A. Heinlein. Set in the 23rd century, the story follows teenager Johnny Rico and his comrades as they serve in the military of the United Citizen Federation, an Earth-based world government engaged in an interstellar war against an alien species known as the Arachnids. The film stars Casper Van Dien, Dina Meyer, Denise Richards, Jake Busey, Neil Patrick Harris, Patrick Muldoon, and Michael Ironside.Development of Starship Troopers began in 1991 as Bug Hunt at Outpost 7, written by Neumeier. After recognizing similarities between Neumeier's script and Heinlein's book, producer Jon Davison suggested aligning the script more closely with the novel to garner greater interest from studio executives. Despite these efforts development was slow, with studios hesitant to fund the costly project right up to the start of filming. Principal photography took place between April and October 1996 on a $100–110 million budget, of which nearly half was spent on the extensive computer-generated imagery (CGI) and practical effects required to vivify the Arachnid creatures.Released on November 7, 1997, Starship Troopers faced critical backlash, with reviewers interpreting the film as endorsing fascism and disparaging its violence and cast performances. Despite initial box office success, collections slowed down amid negative reviews and unfavorable word of mouth, culminating in a $121 million total gross against its budget, which made it the 34th-highest-grossing film of 1997. The disappointing performance of Starship Troopers was blamed, in part, on competition from a high number of successful or anticipated science fiction and genre films released that year, its satire and violence failing to connect with mainstream audiences, and ineffective marketing.Since its release, Starship Troopers has been critically re-evaluated and is now considered a cult classic and a prescient satire of fascism and authoritarian governance that has grown in relevancy. The film launched a multimedia franchise that includes four sequels—Starship Troopers 2: Hero of the Federation (2004), Starship Troopers 3: Marauder (2008), Starship Troopers: Invasion (2012), and Starship Troopers: Traitor of Mars (2017)—as well as a 1999 animated television series, video games, comics, and a variety of merchandise.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 15:06 UTC on Friday, 8 November 2024.For the full current version of the article, see Starship Troopers (film) on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Mastodon at @wikioftheday@masto.ai.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm neural Aria.

In the 23rd century Johnny Rico enlists in the Mobile Infantry, the heart of the human military. As he nears completion of an intensely rigorous training program to learn how to fight and use his power armor, war breaks out between humanity and the bugs. The bugs are aliens with a hive mind, who attack and destroy Buenos Aires, and Johnny and his friends must strive to survive and defend humanity through the brutal war. It's also full of deeply interesting (and controversial) ideas about duty, service, crime and punishment, and so much more. If you like military sci-fi this is a must-read, and if you are into philosophical SF you are going to be pleasantly surprised how much it will stick with you and make you think.Join the Hugonauts book club on discord!Or you can watch the episode on YouTube if you prefer videoSimilar books we recommend:The Forever War by Joe Haldeman (listen to our interview with Joe)Columbus Day by Craig AlansonThe Parafaith War by L.

Starship Troopers is iconic Robert Heinlein. One of his best sellers, and arguably his most recognized novel, Starship Troopers explores life under the Terran Federation through the eyes of Johnny Rico as, after high school, he joins the military. In true Heinlein fashion, he does this to impress a girl. After failing to meet the standards for anything more elevated, Rico finds himself in the Mobile Infantry, combat soldiers who wear powered armor and specialize in lightning strikes.

Rico's Roughnecks Casper Van Dien, aka Johnny Rico from Starship Troopers, joins us to talk about that movie, along with Sleepy Hollow, Alita Battle Angel, Salvage Marines, Con-Man, and much more. We find out how Casper got into the entertainment industry. We talk about his wife and co-star on Salvage Marines, Jennifer Wenger, and her work as a Wonder Woman model and cosplayer. Casper also clarifies the stories surrounding the shower scene in Starship Troopers, and if you know, then you know. Casper also answers a question from a Twitter / X follower about Alita Battle Angel! And although he's not associated with Helldivers 2, there is a Starship Troopers Extermination game coming - be sure to look for that, and of course, Johnny Rico will be part of it.

So the wild thing about Starship Troopers 3 is that it's a movie about God and worshiping false prophets. It literally ends with 2 of the main characters on their knees, praying, while Johnny Rico and a team of mechs appear from the skies to save them. W I L D Discord: https://discord.gg/EHpsTkguxz

Heinlein. Set in the 23rd century, the story follows teenager Johnny Rico and his friends serving in the military of the United Citizen Federation, an Earth world government engaged in interstellar war with an alien species of Arachnids. The film stars Casper Van Dien, Dina Meyer, Denise Richards, Jake Busey, Neil Patrick Harris, Patrick Muldoon, and Michael Ironside. Development of Starship Troopers began in 1991 as a separate project called Bug Hunt at Outpost 7, written by Neumeier. Producer Jon Davison noticed many similarities between Neumeier's work and Heinlein's book and asked him to re-work the script to more closely follow the novel and gain more interest from studio executives. Even so, development was slow, with studios remaining non-committal on funding the expensive project up to the filming date. Filming began in April 1996 on a $100–110 million budget, nearly half of which was committed to the extensive computer-generated (CGI) and practical effects required to vivify the Arachnid creatures, before concluding that October. Released on November 7, 1997, Starship Troopers received negative reviews from critics, who perceived the film as promoting fascism, criticized its violence and the performances of its central cast, and several leveled accusations against Verhoeven and Neumeier of being Nazi sympathizers. Despite initial success, the negative reviews and poor word-of-mouth led to the film's box office grosses dropping week after week until it left theaters, and it earned $121 million against its budget, becoming only the 34th-highest-grossing film of the year. The poor performance of Starship Troopers was blamed, in part, on competition from a high number of successful or anticipated science fiction and genre films released that year, and its satirical and violent content failing to connect with mainstream audiences. Verhoeven believed that audiences' misconceptions about the film were the result of poor marketing that presented Starship Troopers as an action film instead of a satire. Since its release, Starship Troopers has been critically re-evaluated, and is now considered a cult classic and a prescient satire of fascism and authoritarian governance that has grown in relevancy. The film helped launch a multimedia franchise that includes four sequels, Starship Troopers 2: Hero of the Federation (2004), Starship Troopers 3: Marauder (2008), Starship Troopers: Invasion (2012), and Starship Troopers: Traitor of Mars (2017), as well as an animated television series, Roughnecks: Starship Troopers Chronicles (1999), video games, comics, and a variety of merchandise.

You're listening to Artbeat Radio, a program of Able ARTS Work. Randi: Welcome back to Artbeat Radio! Brian: Today we have a special guest and his name is Johnny Rico. Johnny is a Bruno Mars impersonator Randi and Brian: Hope you enjoy! Johnny: My name is Johnny Rico, also known as the Bruno Mars impersonator or Bruno Mars look alike I've been doing this for five years and since doing this I've been nonstop even during COVID. I mean that's pretty much it. I summed it up, I guess. Right now, you know, it's an ongoing thing and it's always impressing me how much and how far this thing is taking me so you know I'm very relaxed very blessed. Nancy: My name is Nancy. What is your favorite karaoke song? Johnny: You know, that's a good question and it's one that most really wouldn't think of and I don't really even know how to sing all of it but I like it. It's a song by the Blues travelers, Hook.  *Sings portion of song* Johnny: And then it goes to that rapping part. that I don't really do but really do, but I like doing that in karaoke because it helps build confidence. Heidi: Okay, so this is Lisa and she had a question that we wrote out for you. Hold it up, Lisa. what is your favorite song of all time? Johnny: There's a song that I remember hearing when I was a kid and ever since then- yeah I hear it all the time and it's a song again most people wouldn't think of it it's called Groove is in the Heart. It's just an awesome song from beginning to end everything about that song is awesome. There it goes up and down. You can dance to it! It's funky. You can break dance. I'm a break dancer I used to break dance a lot.  But it's Groove is in the Heart and I think most like most because of the baseline “Nana Nana Nana Nana Nana Nana Nana Nana Nana Nana Nana” so anyway that's a good funk song. Eric: Do you ever sing a song, “If I lose you Baby”? Which is also a Bruno Mars song. Johnny: *sings portion of the song*  Johnny: I don't really do it because when I do events, most people want to party. So I've done that song twice and it's not a song that I do often, but the both times that I did it the girl cried. So, that that that was a touching moment, I guess. Eric: This seems like a cool job. Is there anything else you do? Johnny: Yeah, I actually work with a company called 1928 jewelry they're a company that's been around for a little over 50 years and I am the e-commerce director for them. So, you know, I sell fashion jewelry that is timeless. I like building websites, I like doing SEO that's -I'm a nerd... I'm a nerd. Brian: Hi, My name is Brian Corder. What songs do you like to sing? Johnny: You know, I'm going to be honest with you. When I first started doing this I didn't like any of his songs then I started learning about who he was. Before I became an impersonator, I started learning about who he was the history. Then I really started listening to the music and I started listening to the music. I started thinking “you know what, he's a good musician he's a good artist” I don't have one in particular that I like. I really like them all to be honest there's not one that stands out more than the other and it's kind of unfair too because I perform all the time so I could say 24 karat magic is my favorite one because I do that every single event but there's not one you know? I mean, if I could give you one maybe it might be “If I Knew” It's like one of the last tracks from The Unorthodox Jukebox and it's just him singing with his partner doing an acapella song. *Sings portion of the song* San Diego: OK, hello! So what is like to work as a professional impersonator? Johnny: It's not what most people think. I'll give you an example of it. To even look like Bruno Mars, It's hard to even go down the street because someone's going to be going to someone's going to say something. So there's good things and then there's kind of uncomfortable situations. So other than that again it's fun and that's it's just different it's very different  Kassidy: She has one more question for you. San Diego: How old were you. when you started this job? Johnny: 32. At the age of the 32. Yeah, and and I also just started singing five years ago so when  I started doing this, I started singing too, so it's still brand new to me. I'm still learning. San Diego: Another question for you. I am the biggest fan one of your songs. Johnny: Which one? San Diego: I really like the Uptown Funk. Johnny *Sings portion of song* You know something cool? these glasses that I'm wearing right now are from the the ones that he wears in the Uptown funk music video. The same ones. San Diego: Oh wow! you're very cool man! Johnny: Well, I appreciate it. I appreciate it thank you very much. And you know, you know, it makes it makes it fun because you're fun! It makes it fun because look, we're having fun, right? San Diego: I love your shirt by the way. Johnny: Hey, thank you thank you. Ricky Regal! That's a another brand that Bruno Mars has. He does clothing too so this is one of the shirts. Ricky Regal. Thank you! San Diego: You're welcome you're welcome! Kassidy: Alright, I'm going to read you the next question is from a student that couldn't be here today. Her name is Grace and she is wondering how did you get into this business? Johnny: Um very, very - I'll try to make it I'll try to make it short. For years I would be looking at- “you look like this guy, you look like this guy, you look like this guy” and then I didn't know and I didn't care who this guy was! Little did I know, it was Bruno Mars. I had a business during you know the last few years I would hear this, so I closed down my business and I was trying to think of another job to do and I'm driving down the street and I see a poster of Bruno Mars sitting like this and then as I saw that poster something hit me. I finally saw what other people saw. I looked exactly like this guy and I started learning about him and it took me about a month to get my first job. I got a wig, I got a shirt, the hat, glasses- and my first job was almost exactly five years ago. San Diego: Wow! Johnny: Yeah, and actually my  first job was also on Bruno Mars's birthday, so I made it extra special. Kassidy: Oh! what his Bruno Mars birthday? Johnny: October 8. Yeah and I'm six months older than him, so he looks like me! Kassidy: That's crazy. Oh my goodness, awesome! Thank you! Alright, Sarah is up next. Sarah: I have a couple of questions for you. Do you relate to the songs you sing? Johnny: Yeah, I could. I could. And, I think that's what makes it even more fun because there's certain songs that he sings that I can relate to. I'll give you an example, there's a song, When I was Your Man  *Sings portion of song* I can relate to it when I sing it. It kind of does give me chills because I'm thinking it also and it makes it better for the performance too because again I could relate to what he's saying. San Diego: I love that song! Johnny: Yeah! Yeah me too. San Diego: Do you know any impersonators, and if so, where do they perform? Johnny: Yes! I do know some of the best impersonators that are out there! We all have different types of jobs. I have, like for example, I know a girl who does- she like a Martha Stewart. So, she doesn't perform. She just does Martha Stewart stuff? I don't know. But then but then I have another friend who's like the number one Snoop dog look like and impersonator. Actually,  he  works with Snoop Dog. He's a stand in. He's a double. He does commercials sometimes. He is like the number one guy so I do know a few. A lot of them get really busy so it's really hard to communicate. San Diego: If you weren't impersonating, what would you do? Johnny: I love music. I love music. I love music! I put out this article from a newspaper or school news or schools paper this decade um I'm a natural entertainer I guess. I just- I can't sit still, so if I wasn't being impersonator, I would probably be a choreographer. San Diego: Who is your favorite celebrity? Johnny: My favorite celebrity? Yeah, my favorite celebrity. Well, you know what? I mean, I wouldn't say Michael Jackson that's- that passed away, but the only reason is because again I grew up with him and he was a magical guy. He knew how to control the crowd. You know? and the crowd, and the crowd loved him. So, if you ever watched like his big performances they get crazy. So, I would say Michael Jackson.  Kassidy: Oh, alright. Awesome! Our next question comes from Julian. So his question is have you ever performed in Las Vegas? Johnny: Yes! Yeah. I've been able I've been able to perform in Las Vegas a few times and it's kind of scary because a lot of people, they think of Bruno Mars already right so when I go to Vegas and I walked the street it gets a little scary. Kassidy: Well that's pretty cool. He's been a lot too! What's your other question? What is your favorite Bruno Mars Song? Johnny: What is my favorite Bruno Mars song? What's your favorite Bruno Mars song? Do you like Uptown Funk? *Sings portion of song* I always finish with it because it's the best way to end the party. Kassidy: Our next question comes from Josh. Johnny: Yes Sir? San Diego: What are your favorite hobbies? Johnny: Oh my favorite hobbies... I like, I like collecting sunglasses you know? and it's also I've- I've always loved sunglasses, but now it's easier for me to find rare glasses and I have my own uh well my own ways of finding unique glasses out of private collector who collects and sells me certain pieces. He sold me these and again these are from the Uptown Funk, so this is my little nerdy thing. That's what I do collect! Kassidy: Okay, Thank you! On to our next interviewer, which is Stephanie. Stephanie: What is your favorite place you have performed before? Johnny: Oh, wow. I never thought of that one. You know what? Hawaii. Hawaii. I never went- I've never gone to Hawaii and I always saw videos of Hawaii. Then, in your mind you're like one day... one day. And that one day came and! Tt was straight out of a movie. Honestly, everything everything was beautiful. The thing is, I wish I could go back it's just very it's very hard to get gigs over there. San Diego:Who's your favorite pop star, and is it Justin Bieber? Johnny: Oh no, you know what? You know, again I  would say, I would say- to the classic -I would say stick to Michael Jackson. I grew up with him. Michael, but if you want to stay living- San Diego: Justin Timberlake? Johnny: Okay, that's yeah. I mean like, you know, yeah I mean like-I- he's a good performer that's the thing. You know? That's why I like him. San Diego: Do you like Avril Lavigne? Johnny: Yeah, I like Avril Lavigne, but it's not like I'm putting it on the radio. I can listen to her music. San Diego: Liam is next. What's your favorite show? Johnny: My favorite TV show... uh it switches and uh I hope it doesn't sound creepy. It's Forensic Files. Yeah, I like I like learning about the scientific way that you know people go about solving crime. San Diego: Random one more question to ask. What do you do in your free time? Johnny:  I have an 8 year old little man, so anytime I get,  I'm with him. San Diego. What is that another impersonator that you've met that's your favorite?  Johnny: I've gotten to hang with a Justin Timberlake look alike and also Snoop and the funny thing is that when I'm when I'm hanging out with them a lot of people think that they're seeing famous people having lunch because they- because it could happen! It could happen, you know? Kassidy: I have one more question from a student  that also could not be here today. Her name is Renee, and she is wondering -she saw on your website that you do wedding receptions -and she's wondering how many have you done? Johnny: Oh, oh a lot! A lot. I would say like- I would say like 40% maybe 40% are wedding receptions and a lot of the people who do the weddings -I have a rule this -this is how much I get booked- Don't reach out to me if you're waiting two years down the line. Because, because I have people who reach out to me who want to book me two years down the line. I'm like, I don't even know if I'm gonna be alive! So I think if it's within 6 to 8 months yeah. But... yeah. It's a lot. It's a lot. Kassidy: Well, those are all the questions that we have for you! Johnny: Those are really good questions. Those are really good questions, and I thank you for the questions! Kassidy: Yeah, students all came up with their own questions themselves and then they organized the order of how they wanted to ask them. Sarah is just raising her hand real quick. San Diego: what is your son's favorite Bruno Mars song? Johnny: Oh, that's a good one. He likes, he likes Uptown Funk.  San Diego: Nice! Johnny: He likes Uptown Funk. Yeah, I remember when I started doing this he was like 3 or 4 and his grandma dressed him up like he was in the Uptown Funk video. He had a little mic and he asked me to put on the music. I put on the music and he was performing. So, and even right now, he's eight years old now and he still likes to!  The funny thing sometimes is when we're driving, he wants me to put it on and I always laugh like “I hear it all the time can we switch it to another song?” but - or sometimes I'll just sing it to him. Yeah, but he likes Uptown Funk San Diego: My favorite Bruno Mars song is Grenade. Johnny: Grenade? Ooh, that's good. You know what when I first started singing I would always say- I would always I couldn't sing that I could sing that song because the song that- he sings it so high. Now I can sing it but no one requests it. You want to sing a little bit? San Diego: Yes please Johnny: *Sings portion of song* *cheering* Johnny: I'm glad I got to sing it cause I don't sing it all. Nobody requests that song! Heidi: If somebody wanted to hire you, What's the best place that they can reach out to you? Johnny: My website brunomarsimpersonator.com Heidi: I wanted to say thank you so much for coming we really appreciate it! Johnny: No not a problem. Not a problem! Again, I honestly -I'm very thankful to be able to do this you know I wish that I could do more of these types of videos you know so one video can lead to like many more. Again, I thank you for that and if I could if I could leave you guys with something you don't mind? Alrigh,t so you know I do have a favorite song that I wish I could perform and sometimes I request if they want it but they never say they want it. I love this one so this is this is for you guys. It was nice to meet you guys first of all. Every single one. Thanks for your questions and you guys have a friend in me now so you know I'm here, and here's a little song for you. *Sings a portion of Count on Me by Bruno Mars* Kassidy: Thank you so much! Johnny: You're welcome! I hope you guys have a good day.  *Outro music by Artbeat Radio staff*  We hope you enjoyed this episode of Artbeat Radio. For more information, please go to our website. Ableartswork.org.

Starship Troopers | Neil Patrick Harris | Casper Van Dien | Paul Verhoeven | 1997 [Special Episode] On this Special Episode of MovieByte Ruben and The Russian join a special guess to digest this 1997 cult classic. Starship Troopers is a 1997 American military science fiction action film directed by Paul Verhoeven and written by Edward Neumeier, based on Robert A. Heinlein's 1959 novel by same name. The story follows a young soldier named Johnny Rico and his exploits in the Mobile Infantry, a futuristic military unit. Rico's military career progresses from recruit, to non-commissioned officer, and finally to officer, against the backdrop of an interstellar war between mankind and an insectoid species known as Arachnids. Starship Troopers was released in November 7, 1997 and has names like Casper Van Dien, Denise Richards, Neil Patrick Harris, Jake Busey, Clancy Brown, Rue McClanahan, Michael Ironside, Dina Meyer and Seth Gilliam amongst the cast. The only theatrically released film in the Starship Troopers franchise, it received mostly negative reviews from critics upon release; however, in retrospect, reviews have become more positive, with many critics highlighting the film's political satire. It grossed $54.5 million in the U.S., and a total of $121.2 million worldwide, against a budget of $105 million. In 1998, the film was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Visual Effects at the 70th Academy Awards. In 2012, Slant Magazine ranked the film #20 on its list of "The 100 Best Films of the 1990s". The film has spawned several sequels – two live-action films, Starship Troopers 2: Hero of the Federation (2004) and Starship Troopers 3: Marauder (2008), and two computer-animated films, Starship Troopers: Invasion (2012) and Starship Troopers: Traitor of Mars (2017). #StarshipTroopers #NeilPatrickHarris #DeniseRichards #CasperVanDien #JakeBusey #ClancyBrown #RueMcClanahan #MichaelIronside #DinaMeyer #SethGilliam #PaulVerhoeven #EdwardNeumeier #RobertAHeinlein #JostVacano #BasilPoledouris #MarkGoldblatt #CarolineRoss #JonDavison #AlanMarshall #90sFilm #Arachnids #TriStarPictures #TouchstonePictures #JonDavisonProductions #SonyPicturesReleasing #BuenaVistaInternational #MovieByte #MovieBytePodcast #JustChillinEntertainment --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Another BYTE for you to digest: https://youtu.be/CENA-IJ58Lo Follow Us: Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/moviebytepodcast Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/movie.byte/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/byte_movie Podcast: https://anchor.fm/moviebyte A Just Chillin' Entertainment original production Follow Them: Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/justchillinent​ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/justchillinentertainment Twitter: https://www.twitter.com/JustChillingEn1​ --------------------------------------------------------------------------- This Podcast is a critique of the movie which falls within "fair use" under Section 107 of the US Copyright Act.

In ferner Zukunft herrscht endlich Frieden auf der Erde, nur die Einteilung in Soldaten und Zivilisten unterscheidet die Menschen. Trotzdem lauert Gefahr: Killer-Insekten aus einer anderen Galaxie haben der Erde den Krieg erklärt. Ihr Ziel ist es, alles Leben zu zerstören, und die Angreifer scheinen unbesiegbar. Eine Armee junger Soldaten wird auf den feindlichen Planeten geschickt, um die Menschheit vor ihrer Ausrottung zu bewahren. Unter ihnen befindet sich auch der junge Johnny Rico. Er, der einst zum Militär ging, um seiner Freundin zu imponieren, steht nun vor einem Kampf, den keiner jemals vergessen wird, denn die Starship Troopers haben ihren Gegner mehr als unterschätzt...

We are keeping this flying saucer spinning until the damn tractor beam falls off here for 2001: A Space Augusty. All month we are doing alien content and we hope you think it's... out of this world. ...don't worry, the jokes on the episode are better than that. This week, Producer C.H.A.D. swings by to talk about Paul Verhoeven's sometimes misinterpreted masterpiece, Starship Troopers. Verhoeven is obviously a master of satire, but it seems audiences mistook Johnny Rico as the American Jesus instead of a cautionary tale of the follies of fascism. Writer, Ed Neumeier, previously worked with Verhoeven on Robocop and this reunion is nothing short of gory, tongue in cheek bliss. We talk all about how Neumeier allegedly was working on an idea called, "Bug Hunt at Outpost 9," which was retconned to be an adaptation of Robert Anson Heinlein's 1959 novella. The film stars Casper Van Dien as the citizen hopeful, Johnny Rico. Van Dien uses the "Freddy Got Fingered" defense in explaining why the film was a financial flop. Find out why his reasoning is rather sound in the episode. Denise Richards plays Carmen Ibanez, who does not play any kind of guitar despite her namesake. Luckily, there is still a stringed instrument played by Jake Busey. That's right. It's the neon violin, which is tacky, terrible, and tantalizingly schlocky. Clancy Brown and Michael Ironside deliver what Jake contends are their top tier performances. Basil Poledouris does the music, and while not his most rousing score, it gets the job done. His daughter also gets a cameo. We talk about the sequels which vary wildly in quality from super bad to just kinda bad. Neumeier continued to direct, but even legendary effects maestro, Phil Tippett, helmed an installment. Did you ever watch Roughnecks? Because we briefly talk about that show too. Briefly. We spend a bit more grey matter and time on the Starship Troopers comic books, one of which was written by Transmetropolitan writer, Warren Ellis.

Starship Troopers (1997) is an unlikely blockbuster - divisive by design. Director Paul Verhoeven has called it the most expensive art film ever made - a movie that ostensibly looks on the surface like any other big summer action film, but one that intentionally baits and switches over and over again. It's a movie meant to make you sick to your stomach - to set off all kinds of alarm bells. And yet, many fans have championed its fascist ethos at face value.Yikes! Will the real proto-fascists please stand up?Starship Troopers follows a young soldier named Johnny Rico and his exploits in the Mobile Infantry, a futuristic military unit. Rico's military career progresses from recruit, to non-commissioned officer, and finally to officer, against the backdrop of an interstellar war between mankind and an insectoid species known as Arachnids.

Starship Troopers is a 1997 American military science fiction action film directed by Paul Verhoeven and written by Edward Neumeier, based on Robert A. Heinlein's 1959 novel of the same name. The story follows a young soldier named Johnny Rico and his exploits in the Mobile Infantry, a futuristic military unit. Rico's military career progresses from recruit, to non-commissioned officer, and finally to officer, against the backdrop of an interstellar war between mankind and an insectoid species known as Arachnids.

'Starship Troopers' - Die Eskapisten Sascha Rico, Markus Jenkins und Daniel Ibanez leisten ihren Beitrag und kämpfen mit Johnny, Dizzy Flores, Ace, Zander und Carmen bei der Invasion auf Klendathu gegen allerlei Bugs und beleuchten die satirischen Hintergründe des Military-SciFi-Highschool-Love-Triangle-Kultstreifens 'Starship Troopers' von Paul Verhoeven (Robocop, Total Recall) mit Casper van Dien, Dina Meyer, Denise Richards und Doogie Howser. Die drei Realitätsflüchtigen wagen sich dieses Mal tiefer in die arachnoide Quarantäne-Zone vor als ihnen lieb ist: Wir ballern auf jede Menge triviale Trivia, werfen Atomgranaten auf die hintergründigsten Hintergründe der umstrittenen und bis 2017 in Deustschland noch indizierten Militär-Satire, stellen uns der Frage, ob 'Starship Troopers' möglicherweise einer der am meisten missverstandenen Filme aller Zeit ist, zeigen auf, wo die Satire gegebenenfalls nicht weit genug geht und rächen vor allem Buenos Aires und Johnny Ricos Eltern. Wir besprechen die Unterschiede zur Buch-Vorlage von Robert A. Heinlein aus 1959, widmen uns der faschistischen Utopie, die Verhoevens Film uns aber nur scheinbar schmackhaft machen will und fragen uns, warum bei Erscheinen des Films kaum ein Kritiker die satirischen Untertöne des Films verstanden hat und der Film deshalb an der US-Kinokasse gnadenlos gefloppt ist. Wir sparen auch in unserer 34sten Folge nicht an anekdotischen Anekdoten und gehen den absurdesten Absurditäten des arkellianischen Sandkäfers samt seiner Denkekaste (namentlich der Brainbug) auf den Grund ... naja, jedenfalls gibbet auch wieder hochversiertes Eskapisten-Schwachsinns-Geballer der guten alten ourewäller Schule auf die Ohren - versteht sich von selbst gä. Abgerundet wird der ganze Schwachsinn von einem Wahnsinns-Gastkommentar von Lukas Flores, der auf Tango Urilla alles wegbombt, was mehr als 2 Beine hat. Bevor wir gegen die Bugs in den Krieg ziehen, hamma natürlich auch widder unsere 'Ich sehe was, was du nicht siehst'-Rubrik mit am Start: Bei Sascha hab ich grad vergessen, was er gesehen hatte, Markus ar in 'Tenet' und Daniel hat die 'Harry Potters' gesehen und is aktuell im Reality-TV unnerwegs - gab auch noch bissi mehr, is grad aber schon wieder so lang her. Habt bitte ein Nachsehen. Und weil Bugs killen viel mehr Bock macht als Texte lesen: Wenn ihr wissen wollt, warum man mit einem Messer Atomkriege verhindern kann, warum Carmen sich gerne 2 Männer warm hält und was Leni Riefenstahl mit 'Starship Troopers' zu tun hat, dann ladet endlich unsere neue Folge in euer Magazin und haltet ordentlich drauf gä! 00:00 Intro 00:36 Begrüßung und Geplänkel 06:54 Organisatorisches 13:38 Ich sehe was, was du nicht siehst 27:47 Starship Troopers - Diskussion, Darsteller, Inhalt, Geballer & Blutworscht 108:22 Gastkommentar von Lukas aus dem Außenstudio Österreich 188:52 Isch bin Johnny Rico! 233:17 Abmoderation und Tschüüüß! "Nimm dir, was du kriegen kannst" - Jean Rasczak In diesem Sinne, viel Spaß mit 'Starship Troopers'!

This week we’re hunting down some big ol’ bugs with Doogie Howser and the chick from Wild Things, all while discussing the 1997 action cult-classic ‘Starship Troopers’. Starship Troopers is a 1997 American satirical military science fiction action film directed by Paul Verhoeven and written by Edward Neumeier. It originally came from an unrelated script called Bug Hunt at Outpost Nine, but eventually licensed the name Starship Troopers from Robert A. Heinlein's 1959 science fiction novel. The story follows a young soldier named Johnny Rico and his exploits in the Mobile Infantry, a futuristic military unit. Rico's military career progresses from recruit to non-commissioned officer and finally to officer against the backdrop of an interstellar war between mankind and an insectoid species known as "Arachnids".

It's episode 171 and this is for all you new people: I have only one rule. Everybody fights, no one quits. If you don't do your job, I'll kill you myself! Welcome to the Roughnecks! Starship Troopers (1997) is the story of Johnny Rico and his friends, who graduate from high school and immediately join earth's galactic military in order to wage war on a foreign planet inhabited by gigantic insects. We talk about securing the right tools for the job; remind ourselves of the basics of gun safety; and reflect on the dangers of a battlefield romance. All of which leads to one important question: How would you survive? Whatever happens, one thing's for sure: I need a corporal. You're it, until you're dead or I find someone better. Next week, a delightful double with Suspiria (1977) and Suspiria (2018). Get in touch! HowtoSurviveShow@gmail.com Follow us on Twitter! @HowToSurvivePod

Hosts Mat Bradley-Tschirgi and William Thrasher discuss Starship Troopers: Traitor of Mars. The fifth in the series and the second animated entry, this movie ties in more to the original than any other sequel in the series. After being assigned to a backwater satellite on Mars, Johnny Rico (Casper Van Dien) is stuck training a bunch of novice troops. After learning of a massive bug uprising, Johnny brings his crew to Mars to investigate. Meanwhile, vile things are afoot with Sky Marshall Amy Snapp's (Emily Neves) publicity campaign surrounding the Q-Bomb.  Starship Troopers: Traitor of Mars delivers a story featuring more satire, more action, and more relevance to the original film. Casper Van Dien and Dina Meyer returning to voice Johnny Rico and Dizzy Flores bring depth to their performances. A live-action remake of the original Starship Troopers is in the works. One hopes it will be less bland than the Total Recall remake.  Mat caught Solo: A Star Wars Story in theaters and felt it was the most inconsequential Star Wars movie to date. He also appreciated how the Netflix documentary series The Toys That Made Us focuses on the business end of classic toys rather than the collectors themselves. Thrasher enjoyed the trailer for The Happytime Murders, a live-action R-rated puppet film from director Brian Henson. He also liked the tight storytelling of They Were Eleven, a science-fiction anime feature from the 1980s.    Ratings for Starship Troopers: Traitor of Mars: Mat: Sequel Yes Thrasher: Sequel Yes Follow the show on Twitter @Sequelcast2 Like our Sequelcast 2 Facebook Page The theme song to the Sequelcast is written and performed by Marc with a C.

This week on the show, we're diving back into the twisted world of Paul Verhoeven and his biting social satire/giant bug sci-fi actioner STARSHIP TROOPERS! SYNOPSIS: Set in the future, the story follows a young soldier named Johnny Rico and his exploits in the Mobile Infantry. Rico’s military career progresses from recruit to non-commissioned officer and finally to officer against the backdrop of an interstellar war between mankind and an arachnoid species known as “the Bugs”. Much derided upon release, over the last 20+ years, Verhoeven's film has found new life as a clever send-up of fascism, the American military complex, gender politics and more. We'll delve into all of these themes as well as provide some little-known information about the film's creation! And of course, we also discuss whether or not it belongs in the Psychotronic Hall of Fame, a decision that we leave up to our listeners.

Starship Troopers: Traitor of Mars - Federation trooper Johnny Rico is ordered to work with a group of new recruits on a satellite station on Mars, where giant bugs have decided to target their next attack.

In 1997, Paul Verhoeven adapted Robert Heinlein's novel about a future where Earth is attacked by an alien species known as Arachnids, or The Bugs. The film follows Johnny Rico as he begins as a military grunt, preparing for a battle he's never seen before. Along the way, his friends Carmen, Dizzy, and Carl are also followed as we lead to a full-on war they never saw coming! After 20 years, our hosts differ on where Starship Troopers lands in terms of its status, but we all agree it's ripe for a reboot. By the end of this episode, we will Remake This Movie RIGHT!

The emperor has no clothes! Paul Verhoeven’s 1997 film, "Starship Troopers,” is a blow ‘em up action war movie for 13-year-old boys featuring slimy aliens and a co-ed shower scene. It cowardly tries to claim that it's misunderstood satire rather than just a pile of space junk. In reality, the film is as effective at attacking militarism as "Top Gun," and, as far as the argument that this director is a secret genius goes, remember than Verhoeven is the same no-talent hack who famously directed softcore pornos like "Showgirls" and "Basic Instinct." Casper Van Dien brings his soap opera-level talents to the role of Johnny Rico, a pretty boy who enlists in the military to try to impress his high school girlfriend despite clear indications that she's Just Not That Into Him. Against all odds, Rico manages to rise through the ranks and ultimately plays a major part in saving the human race from its arachnid enemies, but remember: fascism is bad. And just when you thought the acting couldn’t get any worse than Van Dien, Denise Richards proves you wrong. She plays Carmen Ibanez (not Ibañez for some reason), the least-convincing starship captain in the history of film. She is also supposed to be one of the future’s top mathematical minds, so it's no wonder that mankind found itself on the verge of extinction. Neil Patrick Harris plays Carl Jenkins, a psychic who enjoys making his pet ferret run up his mother's skirt for fun. Keep in mind, this movie was filmed years before NPH found his footing as the Tony Award-winning-and-hosting national treasure that he is today.

Hollywood blockbuster action movies are about beloved protagonists, the overcoming of evil, and plenty of explosions. But sometimes they're about the existential reality that each of us barely teeters on the line of fascism. Yes, that is right. General Snobbery wishes you to know, you might be a fascist! Starship Troopers is the film today! Sean and Matt venture back to 1997 once again to explore what is their favorite #emerging topic: how do action films directed by non-Americans differ from those directed by Americans? Have you ever considered this question? "Do you want to know more?" Then press the play button, you filthy little fascist! They were just attractive, vibrant youths who wanted adventure and wanted to serve their government. That is where our story opens! Johnny Rico was one of these young men, played by Casper "the friendly" Van Dien. We follow Johnny, along with his friends Carmen, Dizzy, Carl, and Byron Hadley as they serve their government, become citizens, and kill Bugs! And o yea, they also become fascists! At the surface, Starship Troopers is a typical, cheesy sci-fi movie about humans with guns and gross aliens with goo. The comedic writing is not only typically timed, it's totally predictable. In short, there is nothing new or good about this movie. Until you realize director Paul Verhoeven did that on purpose, making a brilliantly tight satire with a pigment, and scary, message. The meassage - war makes fascists of us all! Paul Verhoeven is Dutch, just like Ævart. If you wish to know more about how fascism emerges in everyday life, watch Starship Troopers. You might also consider reading some Heidegger, because that man was actually a Nazi. Join Sean and Matt as they continue the dasein of high-budget Hollywood and continue discovering what exactly it means to live toward explosion. Also, Jake Busey.

A shameless love letter to war disguised as a sci-fi film, Starship Troopers follows the romantic story of Johnny Rico, a teenager who attempts to keep the affection of his high school sweetheart by enlisting in a future army whose mission is to fight space bugs capable of pooping acid missiles into low-orbit...in the end, it turns out that it war was Johnny's true love all along. Jericho Thorp (Midnight Society) joins the podcast in our longest and likely nerdiest episode thus far to dig deeper into Starship Troopers' conflicted propaganda, wasted opportunity to kill off a Busey character, and honestly...how much this movie kinda kicks ass.
