Mario and Son Goku: FUSION!!!!!!!!!!!! History and its micro miracles.

And don't forget the robots... which will one day take over the world -- and only brave, hypersexualized Japanese high school students in giant mech suits can defeat them!

Or be raped by demons and/or tentacles and/or demons with tentacles. Japanese game shows and poooooorn. THE END.

This would be cool with huge mech suits and missiles.

>> ^Ornthoron:
Starship Troopers is such an underrated story/movie! The satire over a totalitarian world government is precious.


Ever read the book?

It wasn't satire. Just fun science fiction.

And those suits they wear? They are supposed to be (essentially) mech suits.

Check out my former boss' Mech Suit: http://hallert.net/mech/mechcostume.htm (saw it in person).

I prefer his ALIENS' Power Loader: http://www.videosift.com/video/Chairboys-Walking-Power-Loader-From-ALIENS ...

Huh. Looks like they're taking it in a direction that arcs back closer to the book's storyline, if the few seconds flashing a mech is any indicator.

Really, though, I'd like to see the first Starship Troopers remade to be more like the book. CG these days is advanced enough to make it cost-effective. Instead of a skinny looking soldiers wielding wimpy assault rifles, we'd finally get to see a platoon of soldiers in hardened mech suits equipped with machine guns and tactical nukes.

It would be amazing.
