UKers - Iplayer films

[Oberon]

Apparently Starship Troopers is on Iplayer, which, alas limits it to UKers only, but if you are like me and had never seen it before, here's your chance.

The Rock is also on iplayer it seems, another film worth checking out.

I didn't even know Iplayer did films, but I stand corrected.


Want to know more?

Don't say I didn't warn you: it will ruin your life and sap your will to live.

I quite enjoyed it, found it a bit Pearl Harbour in places, and the ending was a bit...sudden, and I've heard the follow on films are a bit, best forgotten. But in general it was quite a good film...not in the top ten, but entertaining.

A: Negative. Careful though, if we mention the books author I am duty bound by Sircars Corollary of Godwins Law to mention the Nazis within three posts.

Lets just call him RAH then.


I'm taking a course on Science Fiction Literature and this is the 3rd book we have to read (I've already read it several times).
