Fair play, I didn't even realise there was a starship troopers series. Thanks, I'll check that out :)
I watched a small part of the second film, but it wasn't that great, and I'd already heard poor things about it, so I just didn't bother with the rest.

Loved the first movie, I'm a pretty big Verhoeven fan. I've heard enough bad things about the second movie, don't really care to try to see a third @_@

I'm surprised you noticed that movie's parallels to Christianity at all, 99% of that stuff was removed in the Will Smith adaptation (they even removed the "legend" part, so the title of the movie doesn't even make sense). The Charleton Heston one (Omega Man) had it the worst...went so far as to have the main character refer to himself as God, and even featured a crucifixion pose with a side pierced by a spear. Was even worse than that time Aslan the lion pretended to be Jesus ;)

Chronicles of Narnia are Christian, explicitly so. Though BBC only caught on by the time they made The Silver Chair. Some movies are made by Christians as an outreach, but ST3 certainly wasn't; ST3 is a blasphemous piece of crap.

The Most Bizarre Movie Ever

Okay, so not even is the name "God" flippantly used throughout the entire film, missionary dating encouraged, Christians represented by a dimwit who keeps repeating the Lord's Prayer and this handicapped guy who keeps using the F-bomb, but, in the final propaganda piece, God is called a Citizen of the Federation... WHAT?!


yeah you'd have to see the other twp
its a dark and grim future
they wanted to make God closer to man I guess

Do you mean "other two"? I have seen those, and liked the first one. Second was better than the third. Roughnecks is better than all of them combined though.

WH40k looks alright. Command and Conquer is more the kind I like though.
