      @@warmonger12z well, the invasion was clearly rushed, driven by a sense of urgency to retaliate and pure arrogance on the Federation’s part. Keep in mind, all through the training, Rico and the rest of his squad were being trained to fight other humans, not Arachnids. The Federation seemed to just assume that because they had starships and guns, taking out the Arachnids would be a cakewalk. They didn’t even take into account the sheer punishment a single basic Arachnid warrior could take before dying, let alone thousands of those things swarming you. The fact that they were routed off the planet less than fifteen minutes after landing speaks volumes about how unprepared they were.

    Why is no one talking about the bug artillery? Capable of not only seeing enemy spaceships from the surface of the planet but can calculate their speeds and flight paths. They then time their long-ranged, slow moving projectiles perfectly to fly among the fleet, possible accounting for prevailing winds and the rotation of Klendathu, and taking out some ships and dropships. They did all of that without the aid of satellites and computers.
    I'm just noticing this after all these years. Damn, these bugs are smart!

      Well they did literally hit Buenos Aires with a space rock launched all the way from Klendathu. The Arachnids are an advanced space faring race. Bug sympathizers insist that the Buenos Aires attack was a false flag to be casus belli for the war. So you're telling me a race that has transport bugs the size of a small moon, that has landed on and colonized dozens if not hundreds of systems, has plasma bugs that can hit transports in planetary orbit, and brain bugs that literally posses psionic powers can't crash one rock into another rock? Sure. They can do planetary landings all millenia but crashing a rock into Buenos Aires is beyond their abilities. Get real.

    this film was ahead of its time in the special effects department, the Arachnids still look pretty good and actually look well blended into the live action shots for the most part, the only things that look dated are the shadows cast by the bugs, and the actors whenever they are shown shooting at the bugs which you can clearly see they aren't even aiming at the correct spot where the bug is, these things have definitely improved today with modern CGI rendering.

      Given their complete lack of actual tactics or proper fire discipline. These ‘troopers’ wouldn’t have even been considered for the PDF, let alone an actual Imperial Guard Regiment. Unless of course, they were penal legionnaires. In which case, all of this makes sense. Send in the cons to draw out the target, then pummel with arty, or naval fire. What was that? The penal legion’s danger close to the enemy? Not at all, they’re in close quarters engagement. Pinning the enemy for us to give a more accurate artillery barrage.

    The complete lack of strategy and general incompetence in this scene feels deliberate.

The absurd, senseless, chaotic slaughter definitely helps build that narrative.

      @@forrestdorman4870 The film deviated from the source material - that was definitely deliberate. Heinlein dialled the fascist propaganda up to 11 in the book - Verhoeven used scenes like this to undercut that. The fascist undertones are still there - you only have to look at the uniforms worn by "military intelligence" to see that - but we also see soldiers fed through the meat grinder, which calls Heinlein's maniacal glorification of the military into question. Yes, it's different from the book - and it's a change for the better. God knows a more faithful adaptation would be a much more sinister film.
