    Casper Van Dien (Starship Troopers, Sleepy Hollow) joins us this week to share how he changed course from his military upbringing to pursue his dream of acting, and how his career has come full circle with the lives he’s impacted through this work. Casper shares a lot from his experience with Starship Troopers - from the marketing stunts that weakened it in the box office, to the industry legends who geek out over the project, and why there’s a resurgence in its popularity nearly three decades after its release. We also talk about what it’s like having a daughter pursue acting, his Ironside mentorship, and memorable moments on set with legends like Ernest Borgnine.

    that's a funny anecdote about Ironside. I Just met him this month, and my experience was similar. He shook my hand firmly and pointed out that I have a trick wrist. Naturally one would want to get offended by being sized up, but he's that old school type. Once you get past his joke, he's a big teddy bear. I also heard that he was going to be a doctor before acting, so that makes more sense how they commonly evaluate people like that.

      I loved Michael Ironside as a kid. First saw him as Ham Tyler in the original "V" sci fi TV series. Then in "Top Gun" as Jester. After that, I started seeing him more in villain roles like in the original "Total Recall" as Richter, as The Alien immortal General Katana in "The Highlander 2: The Quickening" and as the Colonel in "The Next Karate Kid". So it was a relief to see him as one of the good guys again in "Starship Troopers".

      Not really. The film is complete idiocy. A script that had been floating around in Hollywood for about 5 years that was hastily repackaged into an "adaptation" of the book (aka they changed a few names). Director said he read one chapter of the book, and made it pretty clear he completely misunderstood what it was. The book has a far richer world that it paints a picture of. Starship Troopers is Fascist government sends super models to die in a war that it created. How deep.

      Starship Troopers the movie is a friggin hoot to watch, I always loved it, from the very first time I saw it in a cinema theater back in '97 or whatever it was. Really good action movie, fantastic music score, and the ensemble cast making it even better, it's not just a 1-man show kind of thing like a Schwarzenegger or Stallone movie would be at the time. Never bothered with any of the sequels though, I don't want to tar the original! ;)

      And yeah, it's a popcorn movie, so what. Nothing wrong with that.
