Random Rewatch: Starship Troopers

You wanna live forever? This episode takes on Paul Verhoeven's masterpiece satire of jingoism and fascism, Starship Troopers. A film often misunderstood, dismissed as campy or supporting militarization, Starship Troopers is often deeply misunderstood. On the surface, it looks like a massive, big-budget, brain-dead action movie populated by incredibly beautiful, shiny people from daytime soap operas fighting giant, CGI bugs. But almost thirty years later, Starship Troopers is widely celebrated as one of the sharpest, most subversive political satires ever smuggled into a Hollywood studio budget.
