    Holy shit! I had no idea it was based on a book! The movie really looked like StarCraft without the Protoss. So the rabbit whole goes even deeper, good to know.

      the book is fantastic but doesn’t really emphasize a lot of the fun themes you’ll find in the film. worth a read, it’s short af.

          yes, but also, it explores the universe heinlein created in ways i’m certain he never anticipated (talking heads on TV shows being a great example).

        it is a right wing libertarian manifesto, but good book is still good book.
