The first 10 minutes of Starship Troopers I was horrified. One of my all time favorite adolescent novels was being destroyed before my very eyes. Then I started laughing, had a beer, and enjoyed the hell out of the babes, bombs and body parts. Love the over-the-top patriotism.
I know exactly what you mean... I just love looking at Dina Meyer. I don't think that I've ever actually seen her in a "good" movie: Well, Dragonheart was one of the better ones, but she's done a fair number of SF/Fantasy movies, Including Johnny Mnemonic. And she was in that "Batgirl spin-off" TV show too... On the other hand, the other one (Charlie Sheen's ex-wife) does nothing for me. Heck, I can't even remember her name.
