islandclaws 02-29-08 10:44 AM

Also can't wait to get it!

Hey, it can't be worse than part 2, right?

DeputyDave 02-29-08 10:47 AM

I am there with bells on :up:

movie diva 02-29-08 12:23 PM

I am so there!

DeanoBKN 02-29-08 12:42 PM

Johnny Rico FTW!!! I feel like dying today. I am so there!

BuddyRevell 02-29-08 02:14 PM

I agree that it looks bad. I'm there!!

Trigger 02-29-08 02:38 PM

Looks awesome! Count me in!

I liked part 2.

starseed1981 02-29-08 02:41 PM

Looks terribly awesome. I'm in.

SterlingBen 02-29-08 03:04 PM

Casper Van Dien must hate himself

uncle-frank 02-29-08 03:49 PM

lol, wow that looks like shit

canaryfarmer 02-29-08 03:55 PM

I'm sure it will be awful, but there's no way I'm not watching this.

EdTheRipper 02-29-08 05:46 PM

I'll see it.

Xytraguptorh 02-29-08 07:34 PM

Johnny Rico is back! I cannot wait to see this!!! Part two was disappointing, but with Casper van Dien back in the starring role I think this will be worth seeing.

JCZ 02-29-08 09:41 PM

I had low expectations before I started watching part 2 but when it was over I didn't mind it too much. I'm definately in for this one.

I'm sure being married to a wealthy European princess dulls the pain somewhat.

If you didn't like 2 and you think Casper will improve on it, I doubt you would like this.

OldBoy 02-29-08 10:52 PM

wow! that looked so bad...can't wait to stay far far away from it!!!!

UAIOE 03-01-08 12:36 AM

Can't be as bad as the 2nd movie.

Subgeniusguy 03-01-08 01:19 AM

I just bought part 2 from the WM $5 bin. I might spend $5 on this one too.

hindolio 03-01-08 03:55 AM

theres no way that this can be as bad as part 2!

err...

can there possibly be a way that this can be as bad as part 2?

I've never even seen the second one.

Must have been tough growing up with a name like "Dicks Houser" :D

Jason 03-01-08 07:40 AM

Looks like Jolene Blalock is well on her way to being typecast as cheap sci fi eye candy. The bugs look terribly stiff too. Might just be a combination of early footage for the trailer and crappy internet video though (hope so). I wonder how many stock footage shots will be used (i.e. the Ticonderoga battle station)?

Going back the formula of the first movie is a good idea, but I'm just afraid the combination of no budget and ham-fisted writing will kill it.

And isn't "It's a good day to die" a registered trademark of the Klingon Empire?

rexinnih 03-01-08 08:36 AM

Rentable potential.

IamLegend 03-01-08 12:08 PM

Super Bad effects,Horrible acting,hellacious script....oooozing with cheese...
I can't wait to put this in my netflix que. -popcorn-

Matthew Chmiel 03-01-08 12:55 PM

I love the insert shots from the original film during that trailer. :thumbsup:

I'm there on release date. Looks like a terrible, yet amusing time.

TheNightFlier 03-01-08 01:50 PM

Looks ridiculous, I'll give it a rent.

Fok 03-01-08 02:55 PM

must resist to see it..........loved the first one so I'll have to see this one...fuck!

Hu Phan 03-01-08 05:23 PM

Poor Casper Van Dien. I remember reading an article around the time the first Starship Troopers came out touting him as a great leading man, huge future potential etc. Damn.

I am quite interested in this and will probably purchase on release day.

The vulcan from Enterprise is clearly finished as an actress as far as leading roles in mainstream films go. A pity as well.

critterdvd 03-01-08 05:34 PM

Looks cheap and cheesy!!!!

I can't wait! I loved the first one!

Depends. Are you one of the people who believed AvP 2 couldn't possibly be as bad as part 1?

indy2029 03-01-08 08:28 PM

Some guys were born to play Indiana Jones or Peter Parker, or Superman.

Casper Van Deim was born to play JOHNNY RICO.

RAH must be rolling over.

Too late for that... the first movie was already a complete reversal of the point Heinlein was trying to make in the book.

mike2 03-02-08 10:28 AM

Yup Netflix queue ftw! First one was so great....2nd umm ya i gave it zero stars. We'll see what happens with marauder. Who knows, maybe they'll bring ironside back from the dead! lol

So what is the release date?

AGuyNamedMike 03-03-08 05:56 AM

Aw yeah!

"Fleet does the flying, MI does the dying."

stingermck 03-03-08 08:01 AM

Yup. Day 1. But only because of RICO!!! Can we get a blu-ray release too?

I remember thinking after the first one, Casper Van Dien was going to be a huge action star. Then Tarzan came out...

ytrez 03-03-08 08:05 AM

Damn, I didn't even realize that there was a Starship Troopers 2.

It was a direct to video thing a few years ago. I think the most interesting thing about it was the commentary and listening to some of the people who were involved w/ the first one talking about how they made the second one on less than 1/10th the budget.

UAIOE 03-03-08 11:33 AM

I saw it on cable (no commentary), but the only part of the 2nd one worthwhile was the blond chick getting naked.
