Can it really be 20 years since Starship Troopers hit the big screens here in the UK? Well, it is indeed and after two live-action sequels and an animated movie, the fifth movie sticks with the CGI format and director Shinji Aramaki returns to the helm after Invasion, to bring us Starship Troopers: Traitor of Mars and it’s not only Shinji that returns to the franchise, Casper Van Dien and Dina Meyer return to reprise their roles from the 1997 movie.

I know I can hear you saying, “hang on, Dizzy died in the first movie“, well yes she did, but Dizzy Flores has been brought back in such a wonderful way that ties this movie in very nicely to the original movies timeline.

The all-new military adventure has been penned by Ed Neumeier, who wrote the screenplay for the 1997 movie and also the brilliant Robocop, so with such a great team for this fifth outing, my hopes were up that this movie would be very much like the original movie, rather the sequels that were spawned from it.

The film takes place 20 years after the battle of Klendathu, now Rico (Casper Van Dien) has been demoted and is training the “Lost Patrol” at a station at Mars, but as always those pesky bugs are making their mark, the Federation fleet is too far away to help, so it’s down to Rico and his Troopers to keep the bugs at bay.

Starship Troopers: Traitor of Mars is far from the previous movie from Shinji Aramaki, Invasion. Instead of being set on a battlecruiser and it feeling very confined, this movie takes us down to the planet surface, giving the animators to bring back the sheer hoards of bugs that we first saw in the 1997 live-action movie and boy are these bugs nicely done.

Ok, so this was a very cute book but that being said I don't feel that it would be something I personally will read to my 7 yr old. The age is 7 and up, but honestly I don't feel most of the subjects in this book need to be told to my 7 yr old. It is a very very cute story.. and it has given me some amazing idea's for homeschooling topics. The story itself is very good. I enjoyed the writing and the characters. I will also love teaching my kids about the different types of bugs, bats, and I am going to look into making a small organic garden with warrior bugs. I think that sounds really neat. Overall very good book and I recommend it to parents with maybe 10 and up kids. :)

Awesome
Absolutely love this game, have completed it 4,5,6,7 times and still amazed at it. Survival, adventure, exploration, resource gathering and sometimes a horror game this game has it all !!! graphics are good for an alien planet but the underwater at night is mesmerising. Would suggest giving it a play even if the start is a little slow

I wasn't sure about this one at first because I have seen a lot of interviews where Rose McGowan comes across very strong, stern and cold... but reading this and understanding her full story and what she has been through, was a huge eye opener. You must truly be brave to stand up and speak against the bugs of Hollywood and do what she did.

Definitely one of the better board game apps. It has local multi-player, which works well. Online play can be difficult, as most of the players are very hardcore.

This is a great way to play the additional boards. In real life, those boards cost $40-50. But in the app, they can be acquired for $2-5.

A Bug’s Life, is loosely based on Kurosawa’s masterpiece, Seven Samurai. Watched side by side, the similarities between a Japanese revenge tale and a children’s classic are striking.


Kurosawa’s epic tells the story of starved Japanese villagers who hire seven unemployed Samurais to help them fight against bandits who continuously raid their town. Ya that sounds like the Plot to A Bugs Life.

 DONT GET ME WRONG I LOVE BOTH MOVIES.
