STARSHIP TROOPERS RiffTrax Live event
Sep. 12th, 2013 10:38 pmSo, we just got back from the rebroadcast to theaters of the simulcast of the live show of the RiffTrax folks riffing on STARSHIP TROOPERS. It was a good deal of fun. Lis pointed out that, disturbingly, THAT movie passes Bechdel, even though no summer action movie besides THE HEAT does THIS year.
The RiffTrax folks were broadcasting their own pre-movie slides, and, had we known that, we would have shown up earlier to see more of them. They had movie trivia and stuff, such as: "DID YOU KNOW: GLEE has ripped off three more Jonathan Coulton songs since you sat down in the theater?" and "STARSHIP TROOPERS is loosely based on a book by Robert Heinlein, making it the only science fiction movie ever not based on a Philip K Dick work."
