Remake plans
In December 2011, film producer Neal H. Moritz announced plans to produce a reboot of the Starship Troopers film franchise.[1] In November 2016, Columbia and Moritz announced the writing team of Mark Swift and Damian Shannon had been signed to pen the screenplay.[2] Verhoeven expressed skepticism at the proposed remake, citing reports that it draws heavily from the original militaristic 1959 novel.[3]

gollark: University is still moderately subsidised now.
gollark: It was still cheaper then. The costs of education and stuff have gone up a lot relative to inflation for ?????? reasons.
gollark: I think £20 or so each, less if you buy in bulk.
gollark: You can get custom-printed T-shirts at fairly nonawful prices.
