Which calls to mind Starship Troopers, which I think someone (you perhaps?) referenced yesterday.
Starship Troopers was SO far way from the book I would have been embarrassed to claim I based it on the book if I was the writer.
It had it's moments though, despite the cheesiness.
And I always thought that the Forever War (Joe Haldeman) was a better book.
I really enjoyed both of them.
I think Heinlein would have been disappointed that the movie portrayed the government he envisioned as fascist. Seemed to me that he took great pains in the book to make sure it wasn't a fascist government, or even a military government.
I both wish that it had been made and yet am somewhat afraid of it being made, lol.
Can you imagine the uproar today if you included the part about the changing sexual mores through the centuries?
Or the fact that humanity ends up a bunch of clones and more like the Taurans than the humanity of the past?
Yes!
