I have to ditto that. The movie was overall 'okay'... and just that. For
the
most part it (the movie) was just plain stupid. It's kinda embarassing
that
the *cartoon* version is very much superior!
Man... the show even has decent characters and plots! LOL!
I personally love the mix of the book and the movie. The writers of the
series pay attention to both sources and wrap them together very
nicely...
the they borrow from other elements of the genre! Weren't those drop
ships
absolutely COOL! :)
I think THIS SHOW is excellent fodder for DSII and SGII. Anyone have any
ideas about minis?
Infantry ??? (I think the GZG's NAC Marines are pretty close)
Infantry Walkers ???
AFVs ??? (The ones I've seen are just APCs- few weapons)
Aerospace Craft ???
Bugs ???
