Because it's Starship Troopers as Star Trek. It's entertaining to a degree.

But it's not smart.


Woah, woah, woah... calm down there. Starship Troopers was a VERY smart movie.

Agree...it didn't follow the books very well (as I recall) thus the hate for it.

Yeah bad analogy.

Starship Troopers is Kurt Vonnegut good.

The modern version of Dr. Strangelove.

I guess my point was the modern Star Treks look like that without the irony or subversive undertones.

They play that playfulness straight. It's a cartoon.
