Hollywood seems to get futuristic movies right with the individual liberty message in there. They are usually just to stupid to realize it. The brains of mush usually take the oppressive big government to be Fascist, and the years have convinced too many that Fascism=Conservative/Religious.

Starship Troopers, if you listen to the idiots commentary he equates the government in that movie to what he was seeing happening in the US, and what he saw as a child. Not in regards to liberals, but what conservatives were doing. Idiot couldn't equate being a "citizen" to what being a "citizen of the world" that libs espouse.

Equilibrium they made it emotions and art as victims. What two better characteristics of focus for liberalism are there? The government there was given religious overtones. Funny when you consider so much of the great art in history has been created for religious purposes. Somehow it is okay to have a big government that is theirs.

Starship Troopers was definitely an interesting read. The book was much better than the movie.
