The Starship Troopers Franchise | Deep Dive

Ep. 26
•

Welcome everyone! I wonder how many people didn't even know this crap spawned a full franchise??

We begin with our usual catch-up where:

  • Bav gives the latest update on his progress through Star Wars: The Clone Wars animated series
  • Fluff discusses a WWII documentary
  • Fluff brings us the new series Mythic Quest: Raven's Banquet (and we think he likes it...)

Then we head into the main topic Starship Troopers. Bav begins by recounting the history of Starship Troopers in literature/film/TV then takes us through the 3 main (live action) movies: Starship Troopers | Starship Troopers 2: Hero of the Federation | Starship Troopers 3: Marauder

Which are good?

Which are bad?

Should Bav have included any other films from the franchise or just the first one?
