The enemy cannot hit the dislike button if you disable his hand!
This comment is so underrated.
🤣 Good one.
Now that's a reference if I've ever heard one!
*Limbs*
Medic!
"And full racial and gender equality exists - because we're all too hyped up on genocide" that made me laugh more than I should
Its not like he's wrong
So this was the way to obtain it all along! 😂
@@kallistos87 That's the plot to Watchmen too
Basically warhammer 40k without the religion
I laughed when they said staring Starcraft.
Become a hero, become a legend, become a helldiver !
They need to do a Helldiver 2 mash-up
Lets serve them Bugs some Liber-TEA!!!
SWEET LIBERTY...
I hear Casper Van Deen wants to appear in that game. I hope they get him in.
@@alnu8355 that would be amazing!
"Nobody quits, every joke hits!" Lol Casper Van Dien is awesome.
Sir, yes, sir!
Huraaahh!!!
Yet they whiffed "Honest Trailers does the writing, mobile infantry does the... fighting?"
You do realize CVD did not actually say that.
@@earlleeruhf3130He actually did record those lines for this Honest Trailer. He is a great sport about the Starship Troopers franchise and seems to genuinely like contributing towards it.
Honest trailers: now so famous, that we use the movie’s actual stars for our voice overs!
And that's a wonderful thing
Also did it for Deadpool, got to love actors who are willing to be self-deprecating.
bkayser05 and Cowboy Bebop, A Goofy Movie.
and harry potter IIRC.
It's not the first time that Screen Junkies has had Casper Van Dien appear in a video. They got Casper to play Cap in their Roast of Captain America video.
My respect for Casper Van Dien just went up by 6000%.
Ours is...OVER 9000
It sounds like he literally phoned it in 😆
NUKE 'EM, RICO!
@@screenjunkies never waste an opportunity to make it over 9000!
Right.
"Evil Space bugs are on the attack because they hate our freedom!"
That killed me!
Wish I could give a double thumbs up for Casper's cameo. He was awesome!
Maybe they're Communist bugs...
; )
@@abercrombieblovs2042 They are actually meant to be the "the perfect communist society"
Technically, the war starts because of a misunderstanding, not innate hostility on either side.
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.
This, but unironically.
“You can’t fake good goo”
...words to live by.
Truth has been told!
"Honest Trailers does the writing. Mobile Infantry does the dying."
Epic line!!!
Hura!!
Oorah!
mobile Infantry does the laughing! FTFY
Hooah!
Gotta be honest, this movie still looks good even now.
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
SweetHomeSalamander and it lost to Titanic, which had good VFX, but not in the realm of Starship Troopers.
@@Axle-F I dunno. They cold probably go shot for shot on ridiculous deaths.
Yeah rhe bugs had some solid design and cgi
Corridor Crew guys need to react to this movie.
Fry: "Wait, your home planet? We're the evil invading aliens?"
Brain Ball: "Correct."
So you better remember not to mess with humanity
Get out of my planet
These Balls are making me testy
To be fair, it's their fault, for being on our land before we got there.
when a 23 year old movie has (way) better CGI than most 2020 productions
well they need the money today for diverse casting. and its a devils circle, -diverse casting, a turd of a script. - that means no money comes in, less money for teh next movie.
There were 2020 movies?
@@MasterBlaster220 No, they don't want to spend the money, because then they won't have it. So instead they hire cut-rate foreign actors -- usually bad ones -- to play American characters with laughably bad American accents. Then they stash the massive profits in off-shore tax havens while claiming the movie cost half a billion dollars to make -- "cgi!" -- and promote -- "China!" -- even though they spend next to nothing. And the corporate executives and stockholders cheer and cheer and cheer.
This movies cgi still will hold up in 2040
@@NZobservatory Seriously?! Are you from that industry? I mean, the problem is, why are thry destroying franchises then if its just about money. Look how the viewerships-number fall down. Its a mess.
Surprised we didnt get
"YOUR ENEMY CANNOT PUSH A BUTTON, IF YOU DISABLE HIS HAND"
" MEDIC !!! "
@@scottishhighlander1602 Damn, you beat me to it XD
They didn't feature Clancy Brown in the starring feature.... that's heavy to process
@@NekoHibaCosplay "Kurgan's Heroes"?
Starring, The knife.
This movie is kinda underrated, or maybe I'm feeling nostalgic.
It is VERY underrated.
I heard that a book is pretty good too. Less action than in a movie though
@@screenjunkies The sequels were direct to DVD type thing right?
Its because its awesome.
Agree, VERY underrated, it's a good work full of sarcasm
Love this movie, still watch it every couple years like The Fifth Element. Timeless.
Same.
Superb taste
Same fifth element and starship troopers are at minimum once a year rewatches
Those 2 are on my rewatchable list, along with Tremors and Forrest Gump
Some awesome movie picks there!
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.
I'm legit jealous that Epic Voice Guy got into Rico's Roughnecks on his first shot.
Well straighten up ape - you wanna live forever?
It's the movie Roughnecks, so that's not exactly a high bar to set.
Getting in is one thing. Staying in is another.
“You can’t fake good goo.” Great line
It always made me think of the goo on Nickelodeon
I've done my part
Lmao
There was a lot of goo in the 90’s. Prime goo time
You just can't!
No lie, this is one of those types of movies that somehow still holds up 20+ years later.
"these soapy privates' soaped up privates." had me rolling.
Saving Ryan's privates.
"Soapy privates soaped-up privates"- most underappreciated line of the video.
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.
@@RatFacedJasper Nice Chopper wanted poster.
You know that took Bailey a couple of go's, at least a fair bit of rehearsing
“Mobile Infantry made me the man I am today” *looks at missing body parts*
I remember seeing that. Years later when I was no longer an infant, it made me laugh.
Arguably the best bit in the whole movie
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.
"Saving Private Rico" OMG this is pure gold
"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.
Yeah...that was more like a case of "technology marches on" and "in the event of war it breaks into a mad dash."
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.
Yo i was JUST about to say this exact thing
Haha I thought this too
Yeah this. Literally just commented the same thing. Pretty surprised they let that one slip by.
This is the only honest trailer I’ve ever wanted. I don’t need the internet anymore. Goodbye CZcams
I'm with you!
Unless they do clone wars (tv, not movie)
Goodbye ;)
Farewell dear user.

"too hyped up on genocide" uh wouldn't it be technically be xenocide?
Filthy xenos
Pest control against the xeno.
Heresy!
jajajajjaajjaaj "Carmen...who is just the WORST" hell yeah
Dudeeee have you seen the deleted scenes? If you thought Carmen was terrible it makes her even worse.
@@josephgrizzly9634 She was fine looking though. And in James Bond, she played a rocket scientist named Christmas. It's too bad she only comes once a year.
Remember in the movie how Carmen's mentor got killed because their ships were too close together and the bugs were using artillery to blast em out of the sky
Then like five minutes later Carmen did the exact same move which got her stranded on the planet... Not a great plan
"And my desire to know more intensifies."
It's wonderful that even the main actor, Casper Van Dien, is in on the joke meme ^^
Michael Ironside and Clancy Brown in the same movie? This has to be good.
Darkseid and Lex Luthor in the same movie
Would you like to know more?
Best sci-fi movie ever! Also a satire of desert storm war!
I mean, it doesn't HAVE to be good.
It isn't. It isn't good.
Eric Myers Such a lethal combination. Maybe the bugs are hiding the Anti-Life Equation
They killed those bugs for Democracy!
Let's have an Honest Trailer for "O Brother, Where Art Thou?"
Lmfao you really got Rico to voice over. We didn't deserve that at all. Thank you
Can't do Trooper stuff without Rico stuff!
@@screenjunkies ~ whooah!
We definitely didn't deserve it but man I loved it! 😂
@@screenjunkies
Get in the bath, mom!
Wait, which stuff are we doing?
Nobody quits, every joke hits! 😂😂😂
How does this not have more likes?
I think we all have to get that as a tattoo
Seriously that should be the motto
Screen Junkies I agree! That line was a total gem! 💎
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.
"C'mon, you apes! You wanna live forever?!"~Johnny Rico.
*For Christ's sake men-COME ON! Do you want to live forever?!"* ~Gunnery Sergeant Daniel Daly at the Battle of Belleau Wood

"You cursed rascals, do you want to live forever?" - Frederick the Great - 18 June 1757 - Battle of Kolin
I am sure that some Centurion yelled the same thing at a legionnaire at the Battle of Carthage
"Take a bite of this apple lady! Do you want to live forever?" ~ The Serpent to Eve at the Garden of Eden.
I remember a kid brought this in to watch in elementary school said it was a monster movie; teacher fell asleep right before the unisex shower scene.
sammay1 cool
In elementary school?! Where did you go to school? A prison?!
@@pataker7875 maryland
sammay1 remind me to go back in time and tell my parents I want to go to school in Maryland.
@@sammay1 Ah so basically prison.
"Nobody quits, every joke hits." I need this on a shirt. Lol
“COME ON YOU APES YOU WANT TO LIVE FOREVER!?”
That line and ending still gives me chills to this day, especially with the music in the finale.
Casper Van Dien is such a beast in the movie, still looks badass today.
No joke about the drill sergeant being Mr Krabs from Spongebob? Dang it.
Put your hand on that wall Spongebob me boy!
Ever heard of the Kurgan?
I am disappointed there is no "Do you want to see more?" at the end of the video
so you did want to see more
@@gm2407 we wanted to hear "do you want to know more?"
"Would you like to know more?"
That's exactly what CZcams does at the end of every video.
Aw damn. You're right. That is just what it needed.
....”they hate our Freedoms, OR because we started colonizing their planets. Tomato, Tomauto.” 😂😂😂

@@stevenbrock528 Pretty much every civilisation on Earth.
@@jonathanharwood1255 Lol. No.
@@magtovi Why not?
@@jonathanharwood1255 You know why. Stop acting dumb.
Am I the only one who thought Rico looks exactly like the main puppet from Team America?
Haha yeah
The perfect patriotic male example
Damn why is Casper so perfect?
Apparently Casper Van Dien was called "Ken Doll" all through high school and college because he was literally THAT perfect-looking.
I dunno, I'm actually surprised they only made an honest trailer for it just now but this is definitely one of my all time favorites. We even discussed this in our Biology of Science Fiction class.
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?!
Lightabers
People to actually understand that it's all meant to be satire and war, colonization and blowing things up aren't actually good things?
So, sci-fi version of The Princess Bride.
Just sayin
All that and tub o’ popcorn!
Can we please have an Honest Trailer for the animated Transformers movie from 1986?
EVERYONE UPVOTE THIS FOREVER
Im giving it
YOU’VE GOT THE TOUCH...
YOU’VE GOT THE POWAHHHHHH
Please say "wait... I still function!"
And seeing that Jon did a solid job voicing Optimus in Combiner Wars, even more so!
'Whoa it's hank from breaking bad, I love that show!'
Exactly what I thought when I saw his face!!
This is a parody movie
of every futuristic battle movies
It's a satire on every militaristic regime in history.

Love it, and thanks to Casper Van Dien for having some fun with this!
This and Mars attack deserve more recognition
LOVED 'Mars Attacks!!' !
That movie actually scared me when I was a kid 😅
@@GrinFlash007 SAME! 6 year old me had nightmares for weeks!
"We come in peace..." :)
Hell. Yes. Five years I've waited
Loooong have you waited
I never knew a movie about killing bugs for 2 hours would be so entertaining, yet here we are
It is both a terrible B movie and one of the best comedies ever. It's pretty amazing.
Here we are, wanting to know more
Someone never saw Aliens....
@@screenjunkies Please do a honest trailer about Commando (1985),Cobra (1986),Rush Hour Trilogy
It's actually supposed to be a satire on fascism. The title of the film should be Intergalactic Lebensraum.
"my desire to know more, intensifies." Greatest thing ever. Thank you Casper van Dien
You had me at *"NOT AT ALL BASED ON THE CLASSIC SCI-FI NOVEL,"* Every fan of the writings of the late great Robert Anson Heinlein thanks you!
Also love how this armor got used again (like in FIREFFLY) because it sure wasn't the awesome battle gear described in the book!
"The enemy cannot push a button if you disable his hand!" Priceless scene
“Medic!”
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.
I almost had the exact same experience. For me though, the realization came from college. Yet, it wasn't all too different a realization
not trying to be a douche, but what *did* you think scenes like the ending ("it's afraid!" - everyone cheers) were meant to convey?!
It's not smart at all. He didn't even read the book it's based on.
I think I could tell it was satire, but didn't really get what it was satire of
@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
"The movie that is nothing like the book, because Paul Verhoeven didn't read it."
Another title for this could be
“Space propaganda: the next generation”
I haven't seen this movie in many years and am shocked how well those special effects actually hold up.
Watch it on BluRay. It is gorgeous even now.
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!
They remain 86% combat effective missing a limb.
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.
@@JonathanLundkvist And those Morita rifles were kinda sucky, anyway...
Can you say in your best Sgt. Schultz voice: "I know nothing, I was never here, I did not even get up this morning!
Whos here cause of Hell Divers 2
I wish more action movies had the balls to use this much practical gore
Quentin Tarantino?
@@humanmanlastname8340 He said "more action movies".
Total Recall
But that would take like.... Work. Let Some nerd fix it in post!
I am old, and I remember when this movie came out. One of the factors that really had me hyped was learning that one of the actors on the film had their finger go numb from too much shooting. And I think at the time the movie had used the most ammunition of any movie to date. Gotta admit that is some epic stuff.
I first saw the movie, then read the book, then saw the movie again.
And that's when I learned to compartmentalize my feelings like a true sociopath.
At least the movies gave us a hilariously corny musical number to sing.
Sounds like you'd fit right in into the Mobile Infantry.
I'm not sure I follow.
I would like to know more.
Heinlein would be proud.
You should check out the Japanese anime from the 80s it's more on point with the book.
"There's a child soldier in the first 45 seconds."

When I watched Starhip Troopers for the first time I could not understand why people hated it, I realized it after several years and after reading a book... this movie is soooo brilliant. Verhoeven is one of the most underppreciated directors in history...
It's an excellent movie, based on an excellent book (that the movie misunderstands), that is being more misunderstood now than ever.
I have only seen it once, in the theater opening weekend. I was so hyped because I had read the book 20 times. I HATE this movie. It obviously is a talented and excellent job of communicating the message Verhoevan wanted to, but doing that to my favorite book. Life is pain princess and anyone who tells you different is trying to sell you something. I keep telling myself this, it helps.
@@jeffreysmith236 it's a great book, that's really misunderstood. Someone, somewhere, yelled it was fascist and all the masses repeat it without actually reading it, and definitely not understanding it.
Is it just me or does Casper Van Dien look like Doom Guy's face from the classic Doom games
Ah yes, Starship Troopers that classic “Summer Blockbuster” that premiered in November of 1997.
Yeah but I watched it in JULY 2020. CHECKMATE
It's always summer somewhere in the world.
Uh? I thought I watched it on a theatre during 1996......
@@screenjunkies I just remember that Call of Duty Honest trailer, were EVG(epic voice guy) says: ".....your mom!"
Go outside.
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
"They put the hotsi in Nazis"
Such great writing! What a way to start the day!
How did I miss this one?
That was fantastic, one of the best Honest Trailers!
Say: “I expect the best and I give the best. Here's the beer. Here's the entertainment. Now have fun. That's an order!”
Hearing Casper Van Dien, that was awesome! SO GOOD! hahahhaha
He's the best!
Such an epic name too.
I don't care what anyone says this movie still holds up to this day, is a true CLASSIC. Entertaining, fun and a total syfy epic!
I just rewatched this recently, what a time for an honest trailer.
Love this movie, my mom took me when I was little having no idea....when walking out she said “I’m going to be sick”....she was born in Buenos Aires lol
Why in the name of Spader isn't there an honest trailer for Stargate?
I'll back you up on this.
That's a fair question.
Perfect for this
@@screenjunkies A Stargate movie vs. SG1 honest comparison! We need this in our lives!
Just wanna add the reason it takes less to kill them towards the end is due to the education about the bugs throughout the film. There's literally a segment in the middle where neil explains it.
It's the unexperienced spray and pray to hardened battle pros at the end story line.
Hahaha! Oh Jesus, this actually had me laughing out loud! Best honest trailer in years! Thanks! It's also a great movie
What seemed like silly action movie fun is actually a really deep commentary on American society.
Just like Idiocracy
@@juraj_b Idiocracy is real. It's happening right now.
I see idiocracy... but commentary on American society...? Nope, don't see it.
No
"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...

Always a good plan Chief.
"Just keep your head down. There's two of us in here now, remember."
Step 1: Understanding that this is a satire on living in a militarized culture
Step 2: Understanding that the in-movie propaganda was so effective you didn't realize the bugs did not intentionally attack earth
They DID though. Their brains calculated trajectory and everything. Of course, how those asteroids got from the Gamma Quadrant to the Alpha Quadrant so quickly without stardrives puzzles me.
@@patricklyons794 don't question the movies highly questionable physics..
in the book they are shown to be capable of even more
Verhoeven was a hack that didn't even read the book. Planet Earth was attacked on purpose
@@levethane Thank you, it's fiction, just go with it.
This was way awesome. Epic Voice Guy was on another level with this one. Even funnier than my favorite Honest Trailer for Predator.

I remember making Starcraft custom maps based on this movie. I still feel like making Starcraft custom maps based on this movie.
10/10 would make again.
Just finished rewatching this on Netflix
This is the film equivalent of Springsteen's 'Born in the USA' or Creedence Clear Water Revivals 'Fortunate Son'
