[oxfordgamers] Re: X2 - no spoilers

While preparing to go under the gauntlet for this,  I will meniton that I
have never read Starship Troopers.  Thus, I actually enjoyed the movie.
Well, I enjoyed it until someone told me that they weren't trying to make it
funny.

  If you never read the book, and you had no reason to associate the title
with something that resembled a story, Straship Troopers was probably
fine. Unfortunately, I had read the book and enjoyed it, so the movie was
awful.
  I know this isn't the Hollywood way, but I really wish that if they want
to make a movie that has nothing to do with a book, they wouldn't use the
book's title and author's name on it.

Patriotism is a fine sense of collective responsibility. Nationalism is
a silly cock crowing on its own dunghill.
