    Blomkamp is doing Starship Troopers. Now, I imagine, for the sci fi heads, this movie is sacred ground and shouldn’t be messed with rightly so. It’s a classic.

    However, I’m hyped at the prospect of seeing Blomkamp’s interpretation of the book.

    Would you like to know more?

      I don’t mind it being remade but god dam, Heinlein wrote a whole lot of other stuff that’d make for a good movie.

      I liked District 9 and Elysium. He can do dark and dystopian pretty well. Should be interesting at least.

      I’m doing my part!

      I hope he keeps the same message. But media literacy has gone the wayside lately, so I wouldn’t be surprised if certain groups take it as inspiration rather than criticism lol

        satire doesn’t seem to do well lately

        it’s the internet , the tone is set by people who would cancel culture, who say there is only one way to discuss an issue, by humorless people who don’t like joking around and will crush humour when they see it
