@sun @SuperDicq i'd just like to see at least one piece of media take the book seriously.

like rico has a fuckin cyborg dog and the whole unit goes to war in battle mechs. did you know mobile infantry uses mechs?

no, because fuckhead mcgee didn't read the goddamn book.

@icedquinn @SuperDicq it was originally a different script and someone noted it was superficially similar to that book so they retrofitted it

@icedquinn@blob.cat @sun@shitposter.world Paul Verhoeven hates the book.This is all deliberate.

@sun@shitposter.world @icedquinn@blob.cat Of course. It is a Paul Verhoeven film.

He's a great director. His Dutch films that international fans often overlook in favor of RoboCop and Total Recall are also definitely worth watching.
