Starship Troopers 3
 
Quote:

Was just having a chinwag to my old bud, Ed Neumeier, who says Sony are about push the greenlight on his “Starship Troopers 3”.
“Looks like - fingers crossed - Sony is moving forward”, Neumeier, who will write & direct the film, tells Moviehole. “Plans are afoot to shoot next year. Casper Van Dien will be back as Colonel John Rico. There'll be a new bug or two. Also draft riots. Religion makes a comeback. And the Federation has a new weapon.”
Exciting stuff. More on this beast as it gets its teeth.
The first was great, the second was disapointing. It's probably going to be a straight to video release. Edward Neumeier is directing, who wrote for the sequal, but also has has writing credits for 'Robocop' so I'm hoping for good payback & retribution against the bugs from Hero of the Federation!

The first one was some good fun, yeah...I suppose being based on an oldskool scifi book, it had more to work with.
I couldn't even watch more'n five minutes of the second one...the fake looking effects used for the weapons, and the overall lack of atmosphere was just too much.
The animated series was all good by me.

The third? don't even know if I'll bother until I hear some feedback.

I heard good things about Roughnecks, that it was quite popular with the originals fans. I think the the 3rd should skip anything to do with the sequal and carry straight on from the end of the 1st, since Rico is back and the premise does sound promising.

Man, I didn't even know there was a second one. I thought the first one was great mindless entertainment. Is the second one worth watching?

I'll pass, I liked the 1st one when it came out, but now I can't even start to watch it.

The 2nd was just "mindless" period.
