    Agree 100% on Robocop.

    With Starship Troopers, it all hinges on what you feel when Dizzy dies. Personally, I was legit angry at the bugs when that happened, and then had the realization of “oh… so that’s how fascist propaganda works.” I think it had to be on the nose a bit for the message to come across.

    The movie ends with a guy in an SS uniform saying they’ve made the enemy afraid and everyone cheers, and still a lot of people didn’t get it. So it may not have been dumbed down enough for a lot of people to get the message.

      My first thought was “damn, well, at least Rico might have a shot with Carmen again” and I’m worried about what that says about my political views.

        It indicates you might be a psychopath.

        It’s just a movie so it’s it’s not you’re definitely a psychopath, but if you were your politcal views will be determined by whatever benefits you without any regard for the well being of others.
