Starship Troopers. Yes it’s worth watching. It’s both an excellent satire of a society dominated by its military (it’s portrayed as if it’s an in-universe propaganda film) and an extremely well crafted action film.
It was directed by Paul Verhoeven, the same guy who directed RoboCop and Total Recall.
Hmm. This specific meme makes me wonder if its creator doesn’t quite grasp the inherent satire of the source material…
I’d say the choice of format is driven more by the similarity between ST and HD, and less about an accurate analogy with the source material
Fair, though this specific one hit a little closer to home considering its topic and the source material.
What movie is it? Is it worth watching?

If you play Helldivers, you have to watch Starship Troopers.
HD takes its tone, premise, and many more things from that movie (and a bit from the book the movie satirizes).
It’s Starship Troopers, one of the inspirations for Helldivers, afaik
It was good when I last watched it, but that was quite a while ago, the movie is from 1997, after all
Thanks!
Oh you’re in for a treat!
