That's not off topic, it's a perfectly valid sci-fi snippet.

Re: Science Fiction, Fantasy, and other Snippets

The fact that number one entirely managed to bypass RAH's points and just went for the guts and gore kinda put me off altogether.I'm no Heinlein fan but I do object when even his visions are subverted and purposely misunderstood.

Re: Science Fiction, Fantasy, and other Snippets

The first Starship Troopers was excellent, & more than just guts & gore.

Second... crap.

Third... most likely crap.
