In the book, the bugs are stand-ins for Communists. Specifically, a species in which communism is not only compatible, but perfectly optimal for. Of course, the natural consequence is that their way of life is incompatible with humans. There’s no real jingoism on that front, just two powerful species and a finite number of planets and resources. Indeed, a major thread is that the Federation wants to understand the bugs and end the war.
How would you know? You wrote that comment around 20 minutes after the video came out. At least let the video hit a few million views before deciding if a line is underappreciated.
100 percent. it was nominated for an oscar for best visual effects in 1998. back when the oscars still meant something lol. and the effects still hold up
I love how at the end of the movie, half of the troops consists of kids. No matter how much new tech the humans are pumping out and how much troops they have, the bugs are still winning.
USMC made me the reasonable / responsible adult I am today - unlike the children in Portland who have said they'd refuse to defend the US regardless of reason. There are those who accept the risks of protecting the freedoms of strangers.

Starship Troopers is the best movie ever. It has EVERYTHING. Badass lines, violence, explosions, love, intrigue, mystery, naked chicks, Casper Van Dien being handsome (with a butt shot), a coed shower scene, NPH, a Busey, a raptor on the left side of the screen at 1:21, Michael Ironside being badass, arena football, brain bugs, the game changing flip six three hole, and laser tag. What more could one ask for?!
Exactly how it was for me. When it came out and I was a teenager, it was a great action film. I watched it 5-6 times and still didn't get the hidden messages. Even at some point I thought it was a film supporting colonialism. Then when AVGN made a video talking about it, I went back and watched it carefully, not just cheering the action scenes. So when I watched it 35+ years old, it felt totally different. It's actually a very smart satire movie.
@Spartan 506 it's a satire of militarism, nationalism, and fascism. The fact that everyone is talking about their good old days in the infantry, while they are missing limbs That the lesson of the movie is that violence solves everything. While at the same time the violence in the movie solves nothing
Neil Patrick Harris explained why the bugs never died quickly at 3:27. You have to shoot them in the central nervous system. Those people were just shooting all over the place!
No wonder. They never trained firing on nerve stems. They practised firing against human opponents who died quickly. Aside from being the most dangerous firing course ever designed, it did not teach them the muscle memory required in a battle situation.

"Or like half a clip when the plot demands it" That's not a plot hole by the time the plot demanded it they were experience enough to know what part of the bug to shoot to put it down quick after serving under Michael Ironside. Dougie Houser even did an infomercial showing them where to shoot after the disaster at Big K.
Yup, usually Honest Trailers does so well with being accurate but they really dropped the ball there. Not the only incorrect conclusion in this trailer either.

"Saving Private Rico" is such a nice title. Well done!
"Watch Star Trek: Lower Decks" 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Funniest thing said this whole trailer.
Please make an Honest Trailer for Community.
Just Dean it!!!
Do you think there is actually a chang that they do it?
Pop!!!
I love the puns
@@mstevensh Pop? Pop what? Pop what? What is he trying to say? Pop what?????
"too hyped up on genocide" uh wouldn't it be technically be xenocide?
Filthy xenos
Pest control against the xeno.
Heresy!
I literally watched this last weeks for the first time since I was a kid.
The sound track slaps and the satire is perfectly baked into the plot
I have several friends who still, at 30+ years old, don't understand that it's satire.
“We are going in with First Wave! Means more bugs for us to kill!
You smash entire areas! You kill anything that has more than two legs! You get me!”
We get you, sir!
Bonus points for the guy who said that being the first to get killed.
It’s about damn time!!! One of the best sci fi movies ever made.
TH-cam thought I need to see this cause I am a Helldiver.
For SUPER EEEAAAAAARRRTH!!
Love this movie, and love that you got Casper to lend a voice! Rico's Roughnecks, WHOOHA!!!!
"Starcraft" was fine, but "Zerg Rush" would have been a better name for the bugs.
I was more thinking of Tyranids from Warhammer 40k
Yeah, that's almost the only tactic they do, along with that bug artillery.
@@Omnilatent I believe the bugs in the movie are closer to zerg because they don't have any cultists working for them
Starcraft is better known outside of the community so the joke reaches more people.
...I mean, that's *literally* the joke...
Please say: "The enemy cannot push the button if you paralyse his hand ... MEDIC!"
Great scene. I still feel obligated to point out that none of the Bugs have hands, though.
"The enemy could not push a button, if you dissable his had.
MEDIC!!"
don't mean to seem rude for correcting lol
No problem@@kevinmoore2474
Hahaha! Oh Jesus, this actually had me laughing out loud! Best honest trailer in years! Thanks! It's also a great movie
Still one of my most favourite movies ever.
This is actually my favorite movie of all time. Paul Verhoeven is a genius.
I'm right there with you, this movie is my one true love
I think he’s too crazy to be a genius. He might be a visionary.
It would helped if had read the book
@@Morgomir09 He did but gave up two chapters into it. Many elements of the movie were inspired by what he lived through under Nazi occupation.
Do a 'Every Van-Damme Movie Ever' Honest Trailer, kids today need to learn the legend of the Muscles from Brussels.
This can also apply to "Ever Steven Segal Movie Ever."
He would have to call it:
*Every Damn Damme Movie Ever, Dammit!*
Yes!
@@TheRealNormanBates Also yes!
If you're talking about muscles add these guy's too
Arnold Schwarzeneggers
Silvester Stallone
Dolph lundgren
Chuck Norris
Ha ha Starcraft, I'm suprised they didn't call them "zerg!"
What a miss. They’re getting lazy.
I was waiting for the Starcraft reference. They made their propaganda films such a clear homage to Starship Troopers.
@Punk Shark Well the original starcraft came out years after the original Aleins movie so i wouldn't doubt it!
Yeah I thought this movie is based on StarCraft 😂
@@lokanantazain The Arachnids were Zerglings on steroids.
Dougie Himmler is NPH's best role
Please
Pffft, Doogie Himmler. That's great.
I think you meant Doogie Mengele
I did nazi see this joke coming.
I remember that joke from "The Daily Show" when the movie first came out :p
The fact that I just rewatched this in the bevy of shows and movies I'm calling "The Quarantine Collection" made this Honest Trailer very well-timed!
Please say: Revenge is a dish best served cold and revenge is sweet so revenge is ice cream.
"There's a child soldier in the first 45 seconds."
That killed me XDDDD
This was the funniest honest trailer ive seen in a long time.
In on the joke? IN ON THE JOKE? You think this masterpiece is a joke? When you are sent to Big K you won’t think it’s a joke anymore. ...Would you like to know more?
Looks like someone isn't in on the joke
@@CanelaAguila looks like some on klendathu would like to know more after all
@@krishollanddoyle5062 ouch, too soon.
The satire in this movie was so obvious and blatant its puzzling why it flew over people's head.
I was 8 ok.
try the german version where they cut most of it because it was too fascist. The result is an even more pro fascist looking version.
Alexis Gomez - yeah I was just into the guns and pre-internet softcore bewwwwwbs
The books a whole different beast aswell
@@Fushikatz LMAO
"The movie that is nothing like the book, because Paul Verhoeven didn't read it."
