Yes. This is the guy who screwed the pooch on Starship Troopers.
Paul Verhoeven should be horsewhipped.

Isn’t this the same moron who screwed up the movie of Heinlein’s “Starship Troopers”??
YES!............
He didn't screw it up. He intended to mock Heinlein in the movie. Although why he would do this is anybody's guess. People will be reading Heinlein long after this second-rater is forgotten.
Loved the book.
The movie was a ratty kids play compared to the book.

The same! and Showgirls.
May have been the Red Dawn guy also (slight redemption?).
Didn’t know he was a Hebrew, Latin, Koine Greek, and biblical criticism scholar!
aw hell, was going going to go on and on, but this kind of drek just makes one weary.
A$$HAT!!!
There has been no movie of Heinlein's book Starship Troopers
If you are referring to the film Paul Verhoeven's Starship Troopers aka Bug Hunt at Outpost Nine, then http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Starship_Troopers_(film)
There is a vast divergence between the original book and film. A report in an American Cinematographer article around the same time of film's release states the Heinlein novel was optioned well into the pre-production period of the film, which had a working title of Bug Hunt at Outpost Nine; most of the writing team reportedly were unaware of the novel at the time. According to the DVD commentary, Paul Verhoeven never finished reading the novel, claiming he read through the first few chapters and became both "bored and depressed"[7].
