RE: Starship Troopers

I would have demanded my money back too when I first saw it.  However, I
got
into see the movie on a free pass.  However, that's two hours of my life
I
will never get back.

That was hyperbolic tongue in cheek (what is the icon for that?) not to
be taken too seriously.  Never saw The Movie for S.T. since some pretty
reliable people who regualrly go to movies (I see 2 to 3 a year on a
good
year) I know actually demanded their money back for the first time ever
(ands they have seen some real dogs.)

I liked LOTR as a stand alone series {"A-"} (well the extended DVD
version of TT and the first movie [both versions, extended much better])
but it was a "C" as a 'book to movie' and a "B" as it was.

Gracias,
