The Rifftrax Kickstarter has ended, and while Twilight wasn't on the table for live broadcast riffing, another movie that sorely deserves it has been offered for the chopping block: Paul Verhoeven's Starship Troopers. Featuring pretty 20-somethings and a pre-career-revival Neil Patrick Harris, and a 180-degree philosophical shift from its source material, Starship Troopers has been a bit controversial even among bad movie buffs. Director Verhoeven insists it's an anti-war military satire, and some critics agree, but at the very least it rides the line of Poe's law.

In any case, it remains eminently mockable, so let's join Mike, Kevin and Bill at our local theaters (if you can't reach the ICON or the AMC South Barrington, you can find the location nearest you, and buy tickets, here (http://www.fathomevents.com/?utm_source=RIFFTRAX&utm_medium=Banners&utm_campaign=STARSHIPTROOPERS#!starship-troopers)) for Rifftrax Live, 2013!
