As usual, nothing of real interest to write about. I watched an absolutely horrible movie today. I should have listened to my father when he told me that the book was MUCH better than the movie. But did I listen? I just finished reading Starship Troopers, and its been years since I've seen the movie. Yes I remember the movie being horrible at the time, but I couldn't remember WHY it was so horrible. Well, I reminded myself why it was such a horrible movie. I still don't understand how that movie can get away with claiming to be based on the novel. It seems that whoever wrote the screenplay, did so from memory after reading the book in his High School english class 13 years ago.
So for those of you who have been unfortunate enough to see the movie Starship Troopers, please do not let that spoil the book. Take some time, sit down, and read a good book by Heinlien.
