Whoever came up with this idea needs a raise
500 likes and no comments?
let me fix that!
A Big One
Next should be Arnold for the Automatons 😂
Helldivers players have been on Casper for awhile now, I doubt he'll be actively doing anything for the property though, hell he's still voicing Johnny Rico to this day
it's the lead actor in the movie game mostly based on. Not really rocket science idea.
Can we start a petition to get this guy into Helldivers 2 as a character??? The fans would absolutely lose their minds!
I'd pay for a Character voice pack of him lol
I'll sign it
I'll do my part.
Even if its just a cameo role on the videos that play on our ships then I am all for it
Not a bad Idea at all!!!
Would shine light on his brand while putting a smile on all of our faces having Rico show up!
The fact that Rico (yes, that's what I will always call him) is so passionate about his role in Starship Troopers is honestly so wholesome.
From what I understand, when he came back to the series, he was the one pushing for it to be a lot more like the book, adding pieces like the power suits, etc.
One of the few examples of an actor that appreciates their fa base and the IP that made their career.
of course he passionate, that 3 movie series is all hes been in....
@@shadowforge Sleepy Hollow would like a word
@@tylerhonaker2544 He was only in that movie for like 10 minutes before getting cut in half.
What is amazing he never called it a ''rip off'' he called it what it actually is a tribute.
Starship Troopers '97 is my favorite movie,and i've watched it countless times,but i remember back in 1999 (first time i heard about it) i rented it and i had 24 hours before i had to return it. Watched it 4 times during that period.
I found the animation, "roughnecks" on the internet, it follows the starship troopers campaign against the bugs,and in some capacity is closer to the book than the movie, there is also a japanese animation, another two movies, and another 2 3d animations, very cool universe. And the book should be mandatory reading
Fucking same!
I hope you rewound the video tape before you returned it that was a rule at our shop
Hmmm feel like they are borrowing too much to be a tribute. This is more entering copy territory imo.
@frankgunner8967 "Rewind" But yes, it was an unwritten rule at our shop too :)
Man's been rocking the same hairstyle for 27 years. My bald ass is jealous.
You want that hairstyle on your ass?
When you age that well you can rock it!
lol for real
They’re usually on some kind of treatment
Hairline is a sensitive topic around here
And what's even better is that there's an achievement that's called "Doing your part"
There is also a planet called "Klendath 2"
@88GAF there is a couple planets named for starship troopers planets. At least 2 not sure if there is more.
100 missions
One of the highest ranks is "Private", because the Drill Sergeant demoted himself to Private in order to fight with the boots
At least one that's a call back to "aliens" too... I ❤ it.
I will never stop being so happy at how Casper Van Dien just totally went all-in on loving his role in Starship Troopers. The guy has never wearied of or become frustrated with being Johnny Rico his entire damn life. You feel like he could be having the worst day ever and yet if someone shouted RICO! or ROUGHNECKS! at him in the street he'd still HOOAH! right back.
Most actors would bristle at having this kind of notoriety.
I think he was also a part of the animated series as well. I think if anyone personifies Starship Troopers, it's Casper.
At 7.23 : "This tanker bug..." Love how this 1000 yard stare comes over his face as he's saying this.
Considering how hard he hit the ground in that scene, enough to crack/break a couple of ribs, I could understand. Oh, also, he hit so hard that if you look closely, you can see the chin-strap on his helmet pop clean off and land next to him
The man hates bugs, what can you say?
Why?
Born in '75, read the book, watched the movie, and now I'm a helldiver. Come on you apes, join me, you want to live forever ?
Aye Sir!!
Aye, Sir!!
Aye sir
Aye sir!
Aye sir!
My god he has aged gloriously. That’s democracy right there.
Managed Democracy!!!
Like a fine wine
Just said the same thing.
Carmen definitely lost the game when she dumped Johnny
i'd do his part
It's so refreshing to see an actor just excited to reminisce about his previous role and nerding out. Starship Troopers could easily have been one of those movies that the actors try to pretend never happened.
Genuinely seems like an awesome guy, and it's pretty wholesome to see how much he loves Starship Troopers.
I heard he was terrible to work with on set and a total POS.. fyi.. LOL
Arrowhead should hire this guy to do voice lines for Helldivers 2. If they make it part of a Warbond, I would happily spend super credits on that.
Would cost to much
You're doing your part...of being the problem.
@@Torskel I feel like Arrowhead has been pretty fair with their Warbond prices. Especially compared to other live service games.
@@Dukster9000 How?
@@TheBawalumihidito my guess is by being willing to spend currency you get in game for free.
Not great logic on their part but people have the right to be ignorant.
play a drinking game when every time casper says "it's like starship troopers"
You'll be dead of alcohol poisoning within the first two minutes.
I need my liver.
Grim Reaper: congratulations you won.
I died
or Toke😊
Man, I'm 44 tomorrow and you're still my hero!
Starship Troopers Forever!
Wholesome
I had the pleasure of meeting Casper in person at a Comic convention in 2017. He is every bit as humble and kind as is shown here. He even stopped by my art booth and let us take pictures with me and my family. It was a great experience and I was tickled pink when I saw him come up on my TH-cam page today!
My platoon sergeant used a line from Starship Troopers on my promotion from Corporal to Sergeant. "Congratulations! You're it until you're dead or till I find somebody better." Gave me chills just thinking about it today.
Amazing
That's awesome 😂
its the truth, that is part of the reason why you should honor those who sacrificed themselves for their country. thank you for your service.
@@AGripOBabys It was my pleasure, honestly.
Damn lucky you!
“Vernoven didn’t even read the book because he’s…that’s just the way he is.”
Nice save lol.
Definitely didn't want to paint him in a bad light and saw where his train of thought was going.
@@Bova-Fett But hes right...the book is tha shyte.
Whilst it probably worked out for the best with Starship Troopers stuff like this does make me wonder. Is there some kind of special test all movie directors have to pass? Like, do they have to display a certain level of disregard for source material before they're allowed to become a director, or what?
Why is it so common for directors to be like, "Screw your story, never even read it, I'm just gonna do it my way. Thanks for letting me use the name chumps!"
@@UnknownSquid did you read the book?
@@UnknownSquid They just want to make a story that they want to tell. If it diverges from the source material, it's up to their discretion (and/or the producers'). Some end up with crap output (like tons of generic virtue signalling bs out there); others turn out great, like Starship Troopers.
And it's not just with movie directors, games do this too, ex. Rainbow Six is pretty far from Clancy's book but it turned out okay.
this man is a gem; i love how excited he is when talking about anything related to Starship Troopers, and how he still can recall lines from the movie 27 years later, and not just his lines, other characters too
Starship Troopers had such an impact on me as a teen going to the cinema and watching that masterpiece that sadly was overlooked by everybody. Man that film has it all.
“Would I ever consider being in hell divers?”
Rico. You once asked me for advice. You want some now? Never pass up a good thing.
🤣Yes Professor 🤣
Fun fact, Starship Troopers holds the world record for highest expenditure of ammunition in a movie with over 300,000 blank rounds fired over the course of its production. A record it will likely keep forever as it was one of the last movies made before CGI muzzle flashes became a thing.
Thx for letting us know!
Plenty of guys out there who can easily beat in a single year Starship Trooper's record for shooting blanks.
Alec Baldwin: "They can CGI muzzle flashes???"
@@wduggan99 Damn lol
@@wduggan99Baldwin never misses
As a marine who grew up with you as my inspiration, I just want to say thank you for everything you've done Casper! Semper Fi!
I never watched any of the sequals to Starship Troopers, but just see Rico being so nostalgic about killing bugs that didn't exist, made me grin so hard.
The 2nd movie sucked anyway due to low budget, and was more of a thriller than a war movie.
That jawline screams democracy !
perpetual mew
🗿
@@WeeWeeJumbo😅😅
I'm suprised they haven't Casper casz as one of the Voices for the Helldivers already.
Thats all people would use 😂
Agreed
I think its a licensing thing cause I believe Casper said he'd do it.
They should get him to do a voice pack for Helldivers 2.
They probably would have asked him. A Starship Troopers crossover event/DLC would have been especially fitting. They could have gotten all the cast to record some lines not just Rico. With the Staship Troopers game coming out it probably creates a ton of conflicts though. Unfortunately.
If he did something for Helldivers, he would have to be a completely different character, which might not be _AS_ fun as him being Rico in Helldivers.
His smile throughout the video was amazing. Glad he's still going strong.
Stand up guy. Nothing makes me happier than a humble celebrity who loves his work and fans.
"I'm doing my part sir!"
“I DIDN’T DO FUCKIN SHIT”
There’s a planet called zegema, which is a reference to Zegema Beach, mentionned in the 1st starship troopers movie
¡and im doing my part!
“I’m doing my part!”
@@LeCommieBoi 10:15
Henry Cavil and Casper Van Dien, the two kings of their fandoms. I need both of you on the white screen!
Now that Cavill is spearheading the Warhammer 40K series/films, would be AMAZING if Casper Van Dien was brought on board to play a pivotal Ultramarine from some important regiment/legion!!
@@dbzispimpinomg this would’ve crazy!
He's aged really well too. Can't believe he's not in more movies these days
caster would make a great rogal dorn or the lion. also the jack reacher from the amazon show is the perfect guilliman
@@dbzispimpin This needs to happen now.
Bruh, hearing this man's story.. being an actor is far more hardcore than any cosmic paratrooper could imagine.. at least a soldier doesnt have to repeat takes! Ho-Lee
He has ran through those quotes like he was recording back to back videos at a convention. Love it.
Klandathu was filmed outside my home town, in Hell's Half Acre, Wyoming. I can proudly report that its still bug free. Thanks, Casper!
Sure and I live next to where they filmed the first lunar landing. In my little home pod cause I’m poor and my family can’t afford to move to another solar system
@@Puppy_PuppingtonOP is telling the truth. The final battle on Klandathu where they captured the “Brain Bug” was filmed in Hell’s Half Acre. Look it up. I live in Casper, Wyoming and Hell’s Half Acre is less than an hour’s drive west of here.
@@Puppy_Puppingtonhey at least you admit we actually went to the moon \o/
@@Puppy_Puppington Damn you hurtin
@@robosing225 well ya see, Stanley Kubrick was such a perfectionist that he insisted they film the moon landing on location.
C'mon man.... it's Johnny f*cking Rico. I don't care what the context is, I'm in!
YEAH BUDDY!
The complex mixed emotions I'm having about starship troopers being a parody and satire about the insanity and absurdity of the military complex combined with the heartfelt life-saving story about the real soldier getting the tattoo lol
I love how there are time he's trying to be like "oh no, starship troopers is so much better" but can't because of just how similar it all is 😂
I was not expecting to see Rico from Starship Troopers react to Helldivers.
Really cool!
That's Rico from Buenos Aires to you sir
Rico's Roughnecks! @@ruthlesstony2133
That’s General Rico
Casper truly deserves an in-game appearance. Be it as playable character or just an an Super Earth Colonel or something.
Indeed!
Imagine him being the Emperor of Super Earth. What an omage
I want him standing in my ship on the bridge!
With a similar game like this but set in the Troppers universe on the way the chances of that are slim. It is possible they would tap him for some Rico lines though.
I'll never forget the day I posted a picture of me in my screen-used SST armor, and Mr. Casper said to me, "Outstanding, trooper!"
3day later edit - I also have the Death From Above tat
Im so glad Casper recommended the book. It was required reading for me in high school and what a huge difference from the movie. Thank you for putting this together ❤️
"I am an Expert, because I am Johnny Rico!"
Fuck Yeah! :D
Guy had some PTSD from the filming :D
Bro, when he sees the tanker bug again, he looks like he’s literally eyeing an old enemy he feels true hatred for.
He looks like he's having PTSD flashbacks lol his old nemesis
Scrolled for this.
The way his commentary trailed off. He genuinely went down memory lane.
7:19 I am absolutely dying, he truly is MI or Die
Well that enemy chipped his tooth and broke 3 ribs and made him spit blood!
@@Dagoth_Ur_1yeah this lol
Damn! It's been 26 years since Starship Troopers and Casper is looking great!
This honestly is the best TH-cam video I've watched so far all year!
I love how he isn't whiny and saying he wants to branch out and not be remembered for this one thing. He knows what he is famous for, accepts it, and even relishes in it. Good on him.
I can only imagine the set when Casper got up and the cameraman goes
"I didn't know you had a squib or blood packet!"
*spits blood*
"I didn't"
*set goes wild*
"Ribs hurt real bad."
"Wanna do another take?"
*glare*
Lmao
This is now the greatest video on YT.
Amazing guy, amazing story.
You can see in his eyes the love he has for the role and the film.
you can imagine bumping into this guy and then spending half an hour chating about the film and his love for it!
The legendary Rico .. Dang it !!! 🔥🔥🔥
Sony is partnered with Helldivers 2 and Starship Troopers Extermination. A SST Warbond is a no brainer: Movie accurate Armor, Weapons etc.
I kind of think that might be a slippery slope into corporate sponsorship. It would kind of ruin the immersion of this universe
@@brendanjrice7307this universe *is* starship troopers. they could easily just have a “Roughneck” Warbond that people would get if it was just Starship Troopers skins and they made some vague/light backstory about how Roughnecks were precursors to the Helldivers.
@@brendanjrice7307 Nah it wouldn't. It would be call as hell and hopefully they do it. What would ruin the immersion of this universe is if they start selling gun skins with anime girls on them and shit like CS.
@@justabrokemillenial4715 it's a different universe, similar but different
It's gotta be book accurate for full democracy
I wanna see Casper play Helldivers 2 with someone just to hear him yell orders as Rico
I would love to have him as cameo, at least in the ads like one of those eagle sweat.
I want to see him play with Soundslikepizza.
Rico and mr. Krabs would be cool.
@@ExcentricDragon This!
@@marmalade6681I’ll bet even StoneMountain64 will defer to him as Rico’s junior
I saw STARSHIP TROOPERS when I was 11 in theaters And let me tell you.
I want from being 11 to 13 in one night. I skipped two years. Legendary.
This is so cool, I haven't even played Helldivers, but some of my friends do. Months ago, when I saw the game, I immediately associated it with Starship Troopers and mentioned it to them. They hadn't even seen the movie and didn't know what I was talking about.
Now, while I'm taking a dump, TH-cam recommends me this video, and it actually makes me want to play the game.
Met him at a few Comic Cons. I know he's had his ups and downs, but he was always kind and patient with fans. Glad he is digging it.
Ups and downs?
As someone who served for 8 years, thank you for your amazing attitude and willingness to make a dream come true for a fellow serviceman.
The primary reason why the Helldivers would have a massive advantage against the Roughnecks is that Helldivers will always have reliable fire support when they ask for it, with very few exceptions. Hell, with the exception of an attack on a concenterated AA emplacement or Rader Scambler, Eagle 1 will bomb the shit out of that swarm of bugs, flying or otherwise.
This man needs to bring back Starship Troopers as a Series.
Why the hell is he not voice acting in this game???? Devs, PLZ. Also, I love that he still gets so excited about ST. Love it when actors are so passionate about the roles we love them for.
1: this dude ages so well, I'm like whats the point of my life?
2: The fact that he took the time to read the book, makes him way more likeable to all those other writers and actors, that haven't even glanced at the source material.
I salute you General J Rico.
What's crazy is that the director of the Starship Troopers infamously didn't even bother to read the book. I believe he claimed it was just fascist propaganda.
Which is ironic because, from what I've heard, the book is nothing like the movie and is super libertarian and about personal liberty and responsibility.
Edit: fixed a word
@@camerapasteurize7215 ironically Verhoeven accidentally portrayed the Federation in a libertarian way like the book.
But yeah pretty dumb of him to dismiss the book as Fascist
@@114Riggs Verhoeven was right, he had it pegged from the beginning. I've read the book. Its a little bit like the bits of 1984 By George Orwell that mention the endless war but actually sincere about the legitimacy of it. As former infantry the idea of veterans running a country is fucking terrifying. If you've ever been in the military you know they are not fit to run a civil society, it takes a little while for you to be fit to transition back into one.
@@firstandlastname6194 do I remember right that the Arachnides worked /enslaved the Skinnies?
@@114Riggs I read the book in highschool, probably about 3 or 4 years after I saw the movie in theaters so my memory is hazy.
The man really seems to love the franchise. That's so encouraging to see
I have a whole new appreciation for Casper (Rico) now. What a nice, genuine, excitible dude. I'm definitely streaming Starship Troopers.
I LOVE Casper’s enthusiasm after all these years, it had me grinning like an idiot that he doesnt just love it, he LIVES it!
I saw Starship Troopers in theaters when I was 7 or 8, I’m 35 now and have Starship Troopers inspired half-sleeve tattoo and every scene from the movie lives rent free in my head. Casper, you were truly an inspiring actor to me and I’ve followed your works, and your costars work over all these years. You’re all amazing.
Thats awesome to have the tattoo.. true fan
I have the "Death From Above" one. Glad to see you, trooper. I have a set of armor and uniform
when you were 7, how did they let you in? I had to wait til it came out on VHS as it was R16. It would've been mind blowing to see in cinema.
@@Verociity my dad took me, he wanted to see it as well haha
I also saw it in the theater when I was a kid. At first I wasn't sure if it was actually a good movie because it was so over the top corny, but then the epic swarm standoff scene happened and I knew it was a special movie. The cornyness is classic Verhoven satire, like Robocop, another classic.
This movie was a huge part of my childhood! I love seeing it make a big comeback. it's well deserved 💪
“Omg I didn’t realize you have one of the pills with blood in it!”
“I didn’t”
What a (Starship) Trooper
FUCK we need Rico as a diver voice, maybe a democracy officer. I love Casper so fucking much man, guys a legend and the fact that he’s so into the game just makes me love him more.
Make home the voice for the general
The fact that Casper is still passionate about this stuff is awesome.
Loved the story at the end Casper, with the marine and his buddy. As a veteran myself, that was awesome and it really does mean a lot to the service people. Stuff like that can just drive a person on to victory!
Starship Troopers was so insanely ahead of it's time. Even the critics didn't know what to think of it. Coupled with state of the art 90s CGI and animatronics, along with actors who gave it their all. Absolutely timeless movie and I love it's getting more attention with Helldivers and games based on the Starship Troopers franchise.
Now we need a game series for the stargate universe
@@Max1990Power bro stargate was amazing we also need a battlestar galactica
@@Winter_ECU battelstar galactica was great as well. So much potential:)
I love how Geeked he is whenever he compares something to Starship Troopers, he’s so fucking sweet
I've always loved this guy. Total supporter or his franchise and loved this stuff. Keep doing what you're doing Casper.
He smiles so much throughout the video, it's awesome to watch. Seeing the nostalgia in his face rocks.
Casper playing a live action General Brasch would be a perfect fit!
It's almost comical that THE actor of Starship Troopers react to Helldivers 2 instead of the actual Starship Troopers game (Starship Troopers: Extermination). It's surreal.
Sadly that one seems stuck in development hell. TBH I don't think it has a chance. Helldivers may not be licensed but the devs are far more passionate about their work.
Starship troopers had a some following before Helldivers came out, but as i understood they made an update that fucked a lot things and the huge success of Helldivers just put them in the shade.
@@nicolaspeigne1429 It was something like they tried to 1.0 too early and broke the game beyond repair. Right around the time Helldivers 2 launched, which caused this mass exodus to THAT game. Supposedly, though, the Troopers game is still being worked on and still has a good following, and HD2 is starting to hemorrhage player base due to the insistence by the devs that the game needs to 'ramp up difficulty' a few dozen more times by year's end. I'm thinking the Troopers game will be mildly easier and a tribute to the 'expendable warfare' of the movie, while Helldivers is going to be the 'what do you mean you want functioning weapons?' variation for the 'wow omg lol yeet' gamers who fit THAT particular niche. Each will have its individual lane. Question is just whether or not the devs for the Troopers game can salvage the development time.
Also, I say what I said about HD2 because the forums are full of people who have no idea what the word 'balance' means. The devs for HD2 have said they have no plans to make it anything but HARDER for the next 5 years, regardless of casual players' decisions to try playing or not. Launch was the easiest HD2 will ever be. Good or bad.
P.S.: Don't forget EDF6 is also coming soon-ish, so 3 bug shooters sharing market space.
@@AdeptusCaeiusIIII rather play HD2 and wait for EDF 6
Heck EDF 5 is plenty of fun compare to whatever they come up with SS
@@AdeptusCaeiusIII The Helldivers cummunity is full of crybabies regarding balance. Cant wait till those Bobs that play at lv 50 like a level 5 get filtered out
Great video! Great talking (i guess) from Casper. Great to hear his stories and how he still holds this Strarship Trooper knowledge. Much respect for his respect.
11:13 Great story.
These are the kind of things you never hear about celebrities but wish you did hear more of.
How tf is it Helldivers 2 is sooo much better than the actual Starship Troopers game - and they got Rico himself to comment on Helldivers 2 also.
Just be like that, just because people made an amazing series in a certain kind of media, doesn't mean they or the series would translate it well to other media. Sometimes, it's up to tributes to bridge the gap and carry the flag
@@ZephyrusAsmodeus Very well said.
It is exactly starship troopers
Lawyer - It is the legally allowable amount of Starship Troopers
Starship Troopers was my favourite movie growing up. I must have watched through at least 2 VHS tapes of it, then I read the book and fell even more in love with the series. Recently started playing HellDivers and it's a huge rush of nostalgia and amazing fun. This was a great idea for a video!
I watched that movie over and over as a kid. Love that Helldivers took so much inspiration from Starship Troopers
The best you can do in a game is "HUG" emote. When you can hug your homies. Best fiture ever.
We should petition for a homie butt slap emote 😂
the personal shield generator pack extends over both people during the hug emote, so you can totally also save your homie from an errant airstrike with the power of friendship.
I hope this guys knows, based on helldivers 2 success, there's currently someone in Hollywood trying to write him a Starshiptroopers reboot
God please...not another bang bros in space version.
@@jefferydraper4019 Honestly, giving him a reboot to do it 'right' (in terms of the source material at least) would be great. Not that the original wasn't a fantastic flick. It just wasn't nearly close enough to the source material. If it gets the 'alright, now we do the original material justice' treatment, I'll pre-order tickets and hobble my disabled ass into a theater seat.
@@AdeptusCaeiusIII If you changed the character names, i dont think anyone would realize the movie was based on Starship Troopers. And thats basically what Verhoeven did in reverse. he wrote a story, based on a conversation, added some names from the book and made a movie.
@@jefferydraper4019 I'm not arguing counter to that. I'm just saying the finished product was good. Just not faithful. I am also in the camp that thinks it'd be nearly impossible to do Heinlein justice without the Snyder Justice League treatment. Or a long-form series. Could you IMAGINE Harsh Mistress, Time Enough or Stranger? I doubt ANY theater would accept a movie long enough for those themes. I'd love HBO or someone picking up a longer-form Troopers script for an 8-episode series based on the book. Like I said. I'd hobble to a theater for a seat, or just grab an over-priced sub to watch the series.
@@AdeptusCaeiusIII Unfortunately they would likely do a horrible version of it with Rico being gay...or disloyal to the state...or some woke BS.
This was such a great idea to get Casper Van Dien reaction/opinion especially since Helldrivers is simply a spiritual successor to the movies and to the few StarShip Troopers games that were created. It still pretty badass that Casper still can pull off his Rico's persona, kinda the same energy you see from Arnold Schwarzenegger from the terminator series, Michael Biehn from Aliens, Peter Weller from Robocop....man as a Gen Zer you guys in the 80s and 90s had it made
God, I wish you would have included the entire intro from beginning to end with his reaction second by second. Its one of the best parts of the game, BUT thank you for this video. Truly especial. Great work as always !
Oh my God this is so freaking enjoyable to see Casper give his honest opinion on helldivers 2 and honestly gameology I hope you guys do a video on starship trooper extermination with him commenting on it as well that would be freaking cool to see too.😊
Someone should tell him that the max level is "Super Private" as another reference + the bile spewers being the tanker bugs because they have a mortar mode
man, his enthusiasm is so wholesome and fun!
I met this amazing guy at Anaheim wondercon. One of the nicest guys you'll ever meet. He even left a voicemail on my buddies phone simply because my friend is dealing with his mom is hospice. Such a awesome guy. Ricco's helldiving roughnecks!!!
I swear, I have an in-game footage of a teammate, breaking the armor on a Charger's back, having that charger ram a rock, he got on that rock, climbed on the back and started mag-dumping in the open back... trully J.Rico style. One of my best footage.
Although Paul Verhoeven didn’t read the book…. I must admit, he made one hell of a movie 😂
Man, you can tell Casper is enjoying the game, his approval just adds to this already awesome game!
Went with my Dad to see ST, i was mid twenties and he was mid forties at the time.
We were absolutely blown away by a tour deforce of modern (for the time) science fiction.
My Dad had read the book at the time and had said it was alright but he absolutely loved the movie.
It's just an awesome scifi flick full of memorable lines and amazing action sequences.
The story Casper told at the end was very moving as well, sometimes the adult pretenders can restore a little faith in themselves.
A cameo from the roughnecks would be cool. This react video is awesome. also. man i'm old.
We are my friend, We both are.
When I play HD2 with friends, probably 80% of the lines we say are direct Starship Troopers quotes
Wow, he looks so good! I'm so glad to see him enjoying the game and recognizing the care that went into Helldivers. His laughter is so infectious. :)
Amazing! What a champ! Love that he's so involved. Helldivers absolutely is an Homage to Starship Troopers. There's even an achievement called "I did my part." XD
Rico's having a blast
His past is hounding him in a good way 😂
11:14 This story is just heartwarming.
It got me right on the feels... Awesome dude!
For sure!
sweet Liberty, my feelings
I've got my eyes sweating until now
This was awesome! I went and got the Blu Ray of the first movie after playing Hell Divers 2 and watched it for the first time. Always heard about Starship Troopers but never got to watch it. LOVED IT! The game is 100x more fun after watching the movie. Great video!
7:24 he’s got that PTSD look to him with that tanker bug scene lol
Helldivers have massive potential for crossovers.
-STARSHIP TROOPERS
-REAPERS, CaOLLECTORS AND GETH FROM MASS EFFECT
-The flood from Halo
I will severely doubt Microsoft or EA will allow Sony to use their properties for a crossover. Just saying. Especially after Sony spat in Microsoft's face over exclusivity.
Honestly the closest we could get is Deep Rock Galactic
Orks from 40k would be awesome
