Star Ship Troopers rules ❤
Starship Troopers is a classic. Love it! I did my part.
I did my part!
I did my part 🦟
Service guarantees citizenship! I did my part! That movie is a blast! :-D
Come on you apes do you want to live forever
I did my part! Countless times :D
Starship Troopers all the way! One of the cinema classics 💕
Starship Troopers is a true cult classic. I need to watch it again! Great vid, guys and love the recommendations.
Nemesis is truly the most thematic game. Great list.
Hi, cant find it anywhere .... is it Still possible to buy it in Europe ?
@@bL1nK400 It is here in the States! But I don't know about availability in Europe.
Starship Troopers is a national treasure! Cheesy as hell but damn do the props and CGI hold up today. 🔥
By far my favorite channel. Camera work is great, and I love the humor. Ty!
Excellently done guys really good video. I frigging love Starship Troopers
Have to say I love thematic games. A few on the list I really want to play. Also congratulations on 20k subs! 🎉
Thank you! 😁
Starship Troopers is a brilliant movie and great work of satire from Paul Verhoven. Lots of people write it off as a cheesy sci-fi b movie but the anti war, anti military, anti autocracy message behind it is powerful stuff. Love that movie.
great topic, love your energy and humour. your channel is very fun to watch. thank you!
Thank you for the kind words!
Based on one of your previous movies I bought Final Girl. It's soooo good. The frustration that your plans !again! didn't work. Feels like you are in the movies ❤
Would love a video talking about team based games for example 3 teams if 2 all competing against each other and working with their partners, your description of feed the kraken made me think of that
Great job guys! Love Feed the Kraken!
It's a great game
Nemesis, Dune and Spirit Island make that list for me.
Nemesis being by far first. The stories it tells on its own is just incredible.
Dune, because there's just so many mechanics (SO MANY) that feel like the game could do without, but they are there for the theme. If you know the story, you know why they are there, you understand why that gives someone an advantage and you see how the reasoning in the book/movie went the way it did and can choose to do against.
Lastly, Spirit island shines through the spirits and the cards. You'd likely be able to tell which spirit is being played by just checking how it's positioned on the board, let alone by how it actually plays and what it does.
Nice list though!
agreed on this
Nemesis is definitely #1. Played it again twice last week, both games were great. Such a good game. A game that should be on this list is My Father's Work.
Totally agree about My Father's Work. Immersive and fun. I'm curious about Nemesis: Lockdown (primarily as a solo game....)
This war of mine sure is super thematic! Also, I feel like Spirit Island would have been a great pick for this list, since every spirit integrates its thematic to its mechanics!
I want to buy this war of mine, but i'm not sure how many people to play it with, what would you recommend? solo? 3? 4?
@@leovelezbetter at solo mode
Spirit island is so, so well made... Every mechanic and card fits thematically
@@leovelez i agree with enigmaticpizza; i consider This war of mine to be solo game
Just play the video game and get a better experience.
Starship Troopers are awesome one of my favorite childhood movies, still watch it once in a while
I like your videos, keep going!
Great list guys.
I like Starship Troopers. "I'm doing my part!"
Nice list! I missed Robinson Crusoe, it's one of the most thematic games I've played.
I was surprised at how many games I own from the list (6/10)! Great list overall.
Moreover, Starship Troopers is a classic.
You have a great collection!
Awsome video shot for project elite!!! ♥
"It's a card driven game. Where you have cards." - A quote for the ages :) Seriously though love the video.
Totally agree on number 1 and 2!
I saw Starship Troopers and I like it :-), quite a nice popcorn afternoon film.
Love Star Ship Troopers, and I actually want to rewatch it because of this video.
Great selection Thanks
Great list! War of the Ring, Nemesis, Eldritch Horror - simply amazing games. Need to try Final Girl.
Just here to make sure Nemesis is on the list. Well done :)
Yep, I think Starship Troopers is fantastic! 😆 Much like this list!
This War of Mine FTW! One of the few games that I've actually had an emotional response to. Fabulous!
Starship Troopers is a great movie, a widely misunderstood parable about fascism. The list is very solid (glad that Obsession receives the much deserved praise). You guys should totally try John Company 2nd Ed. - extremely thematic and exceptionally good!
Starship Troopers is my fauvorite movie of my childhood memories , watch this movie maybe 30 times. I bought Feed The Kraken but havent played it yet . can you guys do a playtrough with maybe some friends and/or family , must be great times !
I have no Interest in Downtown Abbey/pride and prejudice but I have to say, somehow I find Obsession super fun to play!
Thematic is the only way to go! Great list guys.
Yay new video
New subscriber, here. Great list and reviews!
P.S. I love Starship Trooper.
Star Ship Troopers! Love it!
I love Starship Troopers!! 😂 Seen it a dozen times lol
Starship Troopers is amazing and still worth watching today and multiple times
I LOVE the good old Starship troopers ❤
Hegemony is amazing. Our first game lasted 6 hours haha
Love this channel!! Great video. Also, secret message has arrived
What is it..?!?!?
Every year thematic games seem to get bigger and every year we're reminded of how small our table is and if our bookshelves can hold the weight of another game.
Starship troopers - we love it 😍
Great video! Have you played Stationfall?
I saw Starship Troopers in the theater and love it!!!
I love starship troopers ❤. Its an amazing film and it still holds up today. They dont make movies like they used too.
I love Starship Troopers!
Love this Wideo 😂
I love the whole verhoeven trilogy. Starship troopers, robocop and total recall. Absolut classics
Oh man, they sure are. Movies from my childhood. /JG
A couple other thematic games you might want to check out:
Kanban EV (totally thematic if you like project management).
Who Goes There (from Certifiable Studios) which is a great recreation of John Carpenter's The Thing. They call it a growing paranoia game because it starts out cooperative and ends with a ton of suspicion being thrown around.
Starship troopers is a CLASSIC
Starship Troopers is a masterpiece. Denise Richards 😍
As a thematic gamer, I can't say anything negative about your list. Good job! 😄
Super cool video
Starship Troopers ftw! Squash dem bugs!!!!
Starship Troopers is fantastic! Now I will have to watch it again!
Hahahahaha I knew that Nemesis will be on the first place!!!
Great video! Starship Trooper for the win.
Starship troopers is a classic. You’re missing out if you haven’t seen it.
i love Starship Troopers unapologetically
Starship Trooper is so cool, great film
I played hundreds games but only the #1 of your list! So many games, so little time!
Oh my, obviously obsession is game for me)) im one of those who drink tea like that😂 thx for great top!
...And yeah nemesis numba one!
Starship troopers is an absolute classic. A true satire about the military and the role of the media during a time of war. Would you like to know more?
Nemesis - yes, masterpiece! Very thematic with minimum flavor text. Even characters do not have a story or even names. Dead of Winter and Battlestar Galactica would also fit here, but people started forget already about these games.
💯 Starship Troopers is one of the best science fiction action movies of all time that contains all emotional aspects! Gosh, I was almost crying like a baby on time when Dizzy was murdered by one of the creepy aliens
Spoilers... now I definitely won't watch it 😅
@@janisbernans6541 sry..But this movie deserves at least 3 re-watches, so should be not a problem with that kind of spoiler
@@maxwell6563 okay, then I'll add it to my watch list 👍🏻
@@janisbernans6541 Starship Troopers is 26 years old man lmao
@@JLDP666 Alien is almost 45 years old and it's still amazing sci-fi movie. I don't think we should judge movie just by it age.
The t-shirts are gorgeous. Specially the one Janis is wearing.
I enjoyed Starship Troopers alot! And I've watched it recently! Haha
Love starship troopers! Watched all of them
I like Starship troopers, I saw it in the movie theater at that time, then I bought it, and my sons saw it a home, more than once!!!
one more vote for Starship Troopers, both movie and book is great - be aware, they are different.
Everybody Fights, No One Quits.
I have actually read the book. And did not enjoy it. However now I am older and might. Have to give it one more go. /JG
Lol I literally just watched Starship Troopers last weekend!
Starship Troopers movie and book are great
I just finished a Starship Troopers rewatch the other day.
Of the various versions of Nemesis, do you have a recommendation, theme-wise of course?
Starship Troopers: movie AND book are amazing
I'm gonna go re-watch ST now
Starship Troopers with RiffTrax is awesome.
Starship Troopers is definitely 'sci-fi meets pure-joy' royalty!
Everybody Fights, No One Quits.
Marvel United game system.
You can relive almost any comic book battle. This game is so thematic. But you have to have the all in KS pledge for the game to shine.
Also vampire the masquerade chapters. - this game was the most themactic game I ever played it’s incredibly immersive.
Just a dead Bug is a good Bug!
Starship Troopers is my best movie ever!
"Death from Above" ahul
Everybody Fights, No One Quits.
I love Starship Troopers. I'm doing my part!
I ❤ starship troopers
Starship Troopers is so good! I’ve done my part…
Starship Troopers is amazing!! It is rightfully a cult classic.
I LOVE Starship Troopers!
Star Ship Troopers
Starship Troopers is so good, man. So terribley good. 😊
Starship Troopers is amazing!!
How can you even be friends with someone who does not love Starship Troopers?!?! Bugs, bombs, bullets and boobs!
Epic movie.
My super-thematic games are probably not on others' lists (except SW: Rebellion w/expansion of course.) Since Janis doesn't dig SW, I'll add another one for him: Outer Rim w/Unfinished Business. 😄 One that blew my mind with its theme is John Company 2nd Ed. Another is Skies Above Britain. One more, although it is nearly unobtainable: Buffy the Vampire Slayer: The Game (the old 2000 edition.)
Love Starship Troopers!
I'd have included Scarface 1920 in this list. Agree with many of the others.
Love the movie and the book.
Starship Troopers is a classic. Good movie.
I
Looking good in that new merch👌🏻 can't wait to get mine.
I really think I should try out Nemesis, it sounds like a game I would love.
P.S. Jānis is right - Star Wars is overrated.
P.P.S. Jānis is also right - Gloomhaven is overrated.
