I would like to see Starship Troopers redone using a director who doesn’t abhor Heinlen and the book. Something which actually addressed the topics it was about rather than just mocking them while putting a crappy T&A + action movie in their stead.

“I would like to see Starship Troopers redone”

Maybe. Then there are the Will Smith versions of I, Robot and I am Legend, but doing these according to Asimov and Matheson would not be remakes, but rather new movies.

I liked both movies, but had to realize that they had NOTHING to do with the novels.
