![T-800 CSM 101 Arrival | Terminator 2: Judgment Day [Remastered]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/XPtVZ69lomk/mqdefault.jpg)
Love how instead of making Ace a "bully" character, they actually made him a cool friend.
Yeah i thought he be rico enemy or bully instead ends up being one of his best bros and even wants him and diz to get together at the camp by playing romantic music with the fiddle around them.
Opposites attract, there are people you don't get along with, but when knee deep in shit they'll be there to cover your ass and you find out you have more in common than you think.
yes!!!! this
That's because they're all bullies. It's meant as a clue that we're rooting for bad people, and he's portrayed by Jake Busey, son of Gary Busey, people always associated with bully characters :)
I was always glad that Ace survived through the whole movie.
"Everyone should have a friend like me."
I love this line so much.
Turns out he was right, too!
Lies again? Nashville WWE88
A lot of characters got condensed or even eliminated from the book, which is sad. Namely Ace, who is only with rico after basic. The best example of his character might be his friend from basic Jenkins (who was both with him through klendathu and on to the roughnecks.) There's also the Roughnecks' platoon sergeant Jelal, a short Turkish man who was quite a stickler.
yes
Another good line of his was "Funny how they always want to be friends after they rip your guts out."
"Bronski, keep pace!"
Retracts club "MOVE! MOVE!" 😂 That part always killed me.
he was mission ready
"Brownski" lmao
Start running fast boy
MOVE!! MOVEE!!!!
I love how Sgt Zimm was in the background monitoring the entire situation, just ready to step in and regulate if need be...
Yes, Zim was the MVP!!! The Diego Maradona of the team all the time!!!
He was there to watch whos the natural leader of the platoon.
Two questions:
1. Was Zim the MVP? The Diego Maradona of the team of all time, if you will?
2. What was he there to watch for? Was it to find out the natural leader of the platoon?
@@NiceTryLaoChe Under the scope of my consideration...
1. Yes; even at the end when he went to the planet to keep fighting bugs
2. I don't think he was the type of man to trust in first impression, being himself in a job where the first impression is not the last. He might have been there to have a better picture of his trainees.
Just like real military training instructors. They're Always watching... ALWAYS.
Legend says that Bronski is still keeping pace...
MOVE!
Hahaha nice
I love how he just snaps into action
yeee-haah!
fun fact bronski is the name of the sargent in jason x who knew jason lived in the same universe
"The enemy cannot PUSH a button... if. you. dis. a. ble. his. hand."
Clancy Brown is a national treasure.
Cept round money
Except the bugs they were about to fight don't have hands LOL
MEDIC.
Classic military reasoning.
I only found out recently he does the voice for Mr Krabs in spongebob.. Lol
I love how they at first set up Ace to be a dick and he ends up being one of the best characters and everyone's friend.
Everyone should have a friend like ace in their squad
Looks exactly like one of my mates from secondary as well, he’s not ace to me. He’s private Turley.
since all the other memerable characters are either dead or in other units
It's very realistic tbh
Dicks only act like dicks when they think they can get away with it.
This is dark comedy done right. With a perfect 90s feel. It's not supposed to be realistic, it's supposed to be over the top and fun and not take itself too seriously. I fucking love this movie.
i fucking love this movie!
🍻
I never felt like this was a comedy at all the only thing funny to me were the propaganda videos everything else was as dark and serious as it was supposed to be like the book.
@@Elitesolider1023 / Agreed, it sarcastically poked at fascism and the insanity of hyper-nationalism... it was funny too though, in a cringy sort of artificial utopian kinda way
@@Andrew_M_Ward pretty much just like robocop making fun of regan bullshit lol.
@@Elitesolider1023
Robocop started as an attempt to make a Judge Dredd movie but they didn't have the SFX or budget so they replaced the future and Megacity 1 with a very near future Detroit and turned Dredd into a cyborg as opposed to an unrelenting and unstoppable lawman. Starship Troopers was written from the ground up as a satire of US culture and it's slow march into happy clappy fascism which can be compared to Robocop's corporate kleptocracy. Fascism usually comes in through the establishment of a corporate kleptocracy as corporatism is the central plank of fascist economic theory as laid down by Mussolini in his fascist manifesto.
"Bronski keep pace!"
Bronski immediately starts whooping that a$$.
XD
Lol
Fucking quality I was telling my son about this before we watched the film he rolled up laughing when it happened :D
lmao he pulled that rod from instinct.
*MOVE!*
I love how Ace made friends with Rico to maintain his cut in line lmao.
Underrated comment lol!
...and he still gets pushed to the back of the line 😂
I see what your doing here. The old chat and cut. But I'm not going say anything because I respect your skills
He's smarter than he looks.
Who knew Mr. Krabs could be a drill sergeant?
He was in the Navy during his earlier years. Armor Abs Krabs
You spelled The Kurgan wrong :D
🤯🤯🤯🤯
AHAHAHAHAHA
Plankton dislike this
Props to Dina Meyer, she lands one good shot on Zim
Yeah, well, given their relative sizes and weights, he wouldn't even notice that hit in a real fight. You'd need a Clancy Brown-sized opponent to believably land a punch on Clancy Brown.
@@zroutube Well, keep in mind she was a trained athlete who could reasonably lift 50 to 60 pounds (unlike most women who lift 20 - 30 pounds (or my god.. less! had one 35 year old woman who had trouble lifting 15 pounds). She is also clearly trained in martial arts... so add that adds a bit more sting to the punch.
And she took being choked out with aplomb. It really sold the character. The fight was credible. I liked Dizzy even tho they genderbent the character.
she's the best character by far, she doesn't even believe in the federation bull-s**t, and the fight scene shows how smart and controlled she is. But she's madly in love with Rico and will follow him to the other side of the galaxy. Her death is the only event that leads Rico to actually question the Federation, but then Carl shows up to put him back in line.
If you watch well, Dizzy is the only character which expresses human emotions at the Buenos Aires destruction. She conveys it in just two words "it's home". Rico is just angry and wants to fight. We never get to see the reactions from Carmen or Carl, who also lost their parents there, and the rest of the world is only excited about a new war.
@@zroutube It's always possible for a trained fighter to knock someone out with a headshot regardless of size difference. They don't need enough power to break a jaw, just enough to jiggle the opponent's brain.
@@mickd9398 yes,but anyway heavyweight always have BIG neck muscles, which makes much more harder to "shake brains".mighty neck with specific muscle memory can to extinguish very serious blows, and the necessary acceleration of the skull simply does not occur. thus, some people are incredibly difficult to knock out, and if someone hit them 30-40 kg lighter is almost impossible.
That simple mechanic is ignored often by many people who thinks that just needed to hit accurate to right spot.
But it's not weak spot, it's spot of maximum leverage. That's all.
"Pain is in your mind."
-No sir, I reckon it's in my arm.
Technically, the pain is in the mind, as that is where it is translated to be.
@@samsonguy10k no the brain tells the arm its in pain so technically you are wrong
Pain is just weakness leaving the body as they used to say in the Army.
@@billybobs1705 you literally just reaffirmed his point genius lol
I agree with you but the way you put that worked against our point lol
@@la-li-lu-le-lo9444 no he was just trying to be clever...
Right here, my absolute favorite character from this movie...Bronski. My man was just walking around, his mind in some other place, but as soon as the order was given he instantly went into drilling mode, not a second of hesitation. Love it.
Bronski! Keep Pace!
I just love how Bronski from a leisure walking pace immediately takes out his baton and starts running like a mad man!
Move, maggot, MOVE!!😂
😂
Dina Meyer is quite the looker. I love how Zim was lurking right there observing the line situation.
She was smoking hot and cute AF at the same time.
Hell, I remember watching Star Trek: Nemesis and thinking the Romulan commander was strangely hot....and then realized it was her lol.
All the times I’ve seen this movie and I’ve never noticed Zim watching and waiting to break it up if the confrontation went nasty.
Redheads, oh man.
Dina > Denise all day. Doesn't hurt that she got the shower scene. Verhoeven clearly agrees with us.
2:45 I dont remember this part. Look at the background you can see zim and the instructors. you can see them watching the lunch line discussing the recruits. You can tell they're talking about which ones got potential. I love how zim sees the possible fight about to break out but just goes closer to see how they resolve it. Entire time he just has this observant smirk. He sees the beginning of team building in his troop
well spotted
In real life, Drill Instructors look for the most motivated recruit.
Such attention to detail in moments like this is what made this movie great. Though the overall plot is iffy.
Also Kinda adds to the idea that the higher ups knew an attack, like it was planned by them, was incoming which itself could've been a diversion to strike fear in the earth so we WOULD go for the all out invasion.
@@Th0ughtf0rce how so?
Genuinely interested what you think.
*Almost rips arm off*
"You okay son?"
'i reckon it is broken sir', while it is almost 2 halves :p !
Yeah that's the reason he stayed down, his cast iron bollocks wouldn't let him back up
When healthcare is so good you can have a shitton done to you in basic. And it is on the government's dime until you walk down Washout Lane.
Has an arm fracture
"Pain is in your mind"
This scene pretty much defines Verhoeven's humor and vision; underrated by Hollywood.
The interview before a screening where he explains how he made "the world's most expensive art film" is hilarious. The movie only got made at all because the studio changed heads three times and nobody at the top paid attention to what he was doing until it was too late to call it off.
@@squamish4244 makes sense! I bet it wqs initially greenlighted as just another sci-fi action movie.
Great, except it doesn't capture the book Heinlein wrote, it comes across more like a "Saved By The Bell" episode.
@@brassplyer Which was sort of the point. Verhoeven deliberately set out to mock the book and all it stood for because it was a jingoistic wankfest.
A strong society is meant to be humorous tho?
0:38 when Mr Krabs catches Squidward sleeping on the job... Again
“Pearl, keep pace”
I like the fact that the Mobile Infantry have combat medics for basic training.
you do realize combat medics do other things in the military besides deploy for combat operations right? They are the ones working in clinics and shit one tour then the next infantry, etc.
They dont.
They have only for Sgt. Zim batallion. He is that savage with his recruits.
You can get hurt anywhere training for war
@@tjepic5256 Yeah, one guy later gets definitely hurt in the head.
We always had medics attached to us.
Shout out to Bronski for zero hesitation.
Thats actually my favorite of the whole movie.
(MOVE!!!!) 😂😂
"Bronski, fuck that guy's shit up" *Bronski immediately fucks that guy's shit up*
When you walk back from the latrine and your scary CO gives you an order
Real life marine drill instructors are exactly like this.
What a professional.
Clancy Brown makes anything he stars in fantastic. Also a great voice actor too.
I like how this scene wastes nothing
you see zim being a hardass
zim shows us that these guys can quit anytime, so there is no unfair suffering
zim breaks a dude's arm to show he's a good fighter
we see dizzy transfering in from another ready unit to this training camp just to get with rico
we see that zim tests her since people can't just join willy nilly (we already know zim's a good fighter so we don't know if dizzy would make it)
everything reinforces/reveals character and shows us how stuff works - while still being entertaining. That's good writing
Great analysis
uh, you're buying in a little much on the parody. Zim broke the guys arm bc he's been bred to be cruel and unforgiving. This is seen as strength by this warped society. Anyway, some of your other points are good but uh... watch where you step in a film/ literary sense....
@@patrickhamos2987 no actually its not cruelty entirely . Look at the way he comes at zim charging in 100%. Zim gave back what he received, although with some excessive force for sure.
Flores didn't join for Rico...she joined to be in the best training unit. Zim even states "You specifically requested
"I heard it was the best."
@@SoulKiller7Eternal Thats a good analysis, I was about to argue with you but her eye contact with him indicated surprise rather than intent.
They easily could've made Ace a hated bully, instead this movie he becomes buddies with the main star, lol. I love this movie so much.
This is how boot camp is in Helldivers 2.
0:43 I love that part. "I have several very important messages to deliver and half-dozen chores to complete, but sure, I'll run this newbie into dust."
That leg sweep is amazing
Check out Zim during the chow line scene. Hanging back, studying everyone.
How have I been watching this movie for 20+ years and never noticed that?!
@@EmperorJim fukc man! Me too😯😯
Okay so who is Zim?
@@astroboy9736 the Drill Instructor
@@astroboy9736 Oh boi you just wasn't paying much attention.

Hmm making fun of Polish named characters. Let me guess writer is of German or Jewish decent. Oh wait
@@hagestad lmao think a little beyond your shoebox of a skull for once
@@hagestad Bruh, Bronski was the gentlest corporal of all.
Clancy Brown is such an underrated actor. Loved him in this movie but his all-time best performance is still Kurgan in Highlander in my humble opinion
there can be only one
Mom!
The Kurgan was his best part, but he did very well in the Kevin Costner movie, The Guardian
Shawshank Redemption
Mr. Krab...
I love how his instruction to Bronski of "keep pace" was immediately interpreted as "chase him and hit him with your stick" 😂
Clancy Brown sold this role. No one else could've pulled it off as well as he did.
R Lee Ermey probably could’ve done it.
@@user-eh2mi2oh4h 0:31 to 0:35 R. Lee Eremy motherfuckers.
Perhaps Lou Gossett Jr
"What makes you think you're good enough?"
*Starts taking off clothes
"Sex huh, ok fine.
Oh, uh, fighting yeah that makes more sense."
Im good with aything involving Dina Meyer taking her clothes off.
@Si Dunue You are correct.
Si Dunue - all legit funny as heck. Especially where the OP wrote: "Sex huh, ok fine." 😂😂
"Hmmm...It appears nudity on this planet makes one stronger."
"Now that's the kind of gal who makes squad leader."
1:50 that glance to Rico says it all! Love this movie
Clancy Brown is an absolute legend.
this is what mr. krabs meant when he said he served in a war
I knew Starship Troopers will be a classic when I watched it the first time 😂
I knew it would be wayyy before I watched it.
@@WestLegend03
Dang lol😂
I had a friend who called it the worst movie ever. I pointed out 1) it was a satirical wwii propaganda film set space and 2) Batman and Robin came out earlier in the year. It wasn’t even worst movie of the year (and I forgot about The Postman). My friend never got the movie.
This is Mr. Krab’s war days man😂😂😂😂
I remember being in Marine Corp boot camp. They gathered us all into a room and made us watch this movie :D
I remembered getting sleep holder and almost passed out almost a decade ago because i thought i could take on my instructor... who is a woman.
Being young and stupid.

Notice how beautifully steady the camera work is during Flores' fight, not like the amateur shaky-cam crap that almost all modern films over-use to cover up bad fight choreography.
Sargent Zim is not a wuss. He moderately wounds you in training and then authoritatively calls some medics over to help you, then casually walks away to his next task.
I love the focus on hand to hand combat. Especially when facing 10 foot tall bugs with four blades for feet, numbering in the billions.
Helps build discipline
I'd say it's just as important as anything else. Keeps your body in peak condition.
Clancy is a legend.
If only Harry would have responded sarcastically "I'm honored" to Malfoy extending his hand in friendship, there'd be a whole lot less drama
Tmiotmiosctmionktmotkncf💜
Dammit now I want to see a complete reshoot with Jake Busey as Malfoy. No accent, no costume, just Jake Busey.
Except
1 - Malfoy is a bully, Ace is not
2 - Malfoy did not offer his friendship to Harry, he just told him he could "help him not making friends with the wrong sort".
01:10 Breckinridge timidly raises his right arm and says "Sir! I guess maybe I do, sir!"
Zim briskly breaks same arm. Genius. LMAO!
The director changed the same quite a bit from the book. In the book, Zim didn't break the arm intentionally. And he apologizes to the recruit afterwards for breaking the arm because the recruit rushed him before Zim was ready. And he felt it was his responsibility to always be ready.
This plays out later in the book when one of the characters acting as an officer is struck by a recruit.
Either them or Colonel to watch is very disappointed in the character because now they have to punish the recruit but they consider it the character's failure.
So this is what Mr. Krabs was like in the Navy.
Good to see Captain Hadley from Shawshank redemption is finally doing some good.
Man I loved Dizz and still do.
Yep, Johnny was an idiot. She was way hotter than Carmen. Probably better in the sack too.
Me too
This movie is just such a straight up banger, I watch the film every few years and it stays fresh. Love it when Diz gets the drill instructor with (what looks like) an elbow to the face, she almost had him😆
Who knew from being an officer in Shawshank Redemption, he's also a Drill Sergeant. Good for you Mr. Krabs
Legends say he ran around that armory until he died of dehydration, because nobody told him to stop. Bronski kept pace and did survive the experience.
Damn that guy is the hardest screw to ever walk a turn at Shawshank
And also an immortal swordsman.
I'd hate to see how badly he'd beat up a recruit after taking that hat off.
So this is what Mr. Krabs was doing back in his Navy days. A true hero.
every year I watch this movie at least once. It was me and my passed away friend's most favorite one and Ace is looking just like him
That’s Mr Crab’s voice actor.
He is also Kurgan the immortal in Highlander, Captain Hadley in Shawshank Redemption, voice of Lex Luthor in the Justice League cartoon and voice of Neo Cortex in the Crash Bandicoot game series.
Correction, that's Mr. Krab's human avatar.
And also prez Johnson in the crown 👑 season 3 and surtur in Thor Ragnarok..
Also Lt Hank Anderson in "Detroit: Become Human".
and that giant monster covered in flames in Thor Ragnarok
Everybody needs a friend like Bronski.
Brony Bronski
I always loved how Bronski just drops whatever he's already on his way to do and starts keeping pace. I guess when Clancy Brown says "Jump" you say "How high?" on the way down.
Mr Krabs clearly lied when he said he was just a cook in the Navy.
I love that it parodies both Full Metal Jacket and Spartacus at the same time.
In the book, if memory serves, it was Shujumi who stood toe to toe with Zim, both with a mutual respect for eachothers skills. It is mentioned that Shujumi comes from a distinguished martial arts family with his father being a famous MI Colonel. It was Shujumis father who trained Zim in CQC, both, again if memory serves, fought to stalemate.
And here they made him the comedy clown, just good at showing off his butt and being the second in squad to get shredded on the first encounter with bugs. *sigh*
I thought it was a back and forth but Zim got the win. They just replaced Shijumi with Diz. Though Shijumi is now a guy who raged out and got torn a part on klendathu.
"Requesting a chance to avenge my arm sir!" would've been a nice line
Anything with Clancy Brown is an instant classic...we also got crazy azz Gary Bussey's son as a bonus playing our best friend Ace.
That choke out.., was Glorious!!!
He gives the dude a chance to stop laughing, he doesn't main Flores, and he doesn't reprimand the guy who cries out in pain. Kinda fair I guess
Prepares his troops for what's coming to them when they hit the field, while maintaining teamwork and cooperation. No enmity between anybody unless they choose it. I never cared for training tactics that encouraged rivalries or making yourself the bad guy just to unite the recruits. That's weak tyrant sauce.
He also observes but doesn't intervene when Ace and Rico looked like they were gonna fight and then gave a smirk when Ace just made a joke of it.
Considering what happened to the other two, he was pretty easy on the laughing guy
Despite the gruff drill sergeant talk, he clearly respects everyone there and treats them like adults
That's because Zim isn't a bully, he is a professional.
Bronski shouted so loud that my nose shaked a little.
“Bronski! Keep pace!” Love it. “Move! Move!”
This film was definitely ahead of its time. We need a remake of it and two sequels
Unfortunately, we did get a bunch of sequels...and they were all shit.
a series would be cool too
after every fucked up recent remake? even if the remakes/recent sequels are good they rarely do well given legacy of the such movies...
No hell no a remake now days mean Rico will be black and gay , that girl Flores will be the hero of the movie so a big NO!. Lets leave Starship Troopers as it is
@@dwybo646 admittedly I did enjoy the animated series back in the late 90s/early 00s
Zim is the best character in this movie.
Sgt. Krabs drilling new recruits in the Krusty Krabs Boot Camp.
This scene hits so different when you've actually been to basic, fucking love this movie
Except no sergeant would let you address him as sir.... My father retired as the equivalent of a US Navy Master Chief Petty Officer and whenever he was addressed as sir his response always was:"Don't call me sir! I work for a living"
@ZATennisFan In boot camp recruits have to address sergeants and everyone else who isn't a recruit as sir or ma'am. It's after boot camp that you only call officers sir or ma'am.
The attention to detail in this flick is phenomenal. You can see the stain on Breckenridge's sleeve from the blood that is no doubt pouring out of his compound fracture (1:31). Movies are amazing!
all.the.best
There is that but Verderhoven is a bit obsessed with blood. He has made a lot of interesting films that irritated others in his native land so he eventually found it better to move elsewhere. I'm sure he'll be treasured after he is safely dead tho (is he now? I don't track him).
At least Diz landed a shot or two. First guy didn't have a clue.
Fighting Zim was a no-win scenario. Only a question of how long you last. It's no wonder they really started to win when he let himself get demoted to get on the field.
She got to smack the shit out of her instructor without facing disciplinary action afterwards! Just a giant bruise on her neck lol.
I've always loved how Bronski picks up on his duty immediately and goes to it with zeal XD "Bronski, keep pace!" *whips out baton* "MOVE! MOVE! MOVE!" XD
MEDIC!!!!!!!!! IT IS THE BEST!!!!! Dina Meyer real freakin badass when she rolled up and took off her jacket.💪🏿💪🏿💪🏿💪🏿🎥📺👍🏿👊🏿👊🏿👊🏿
The film is its own animal. It's good. But I recommend the book as well. It has a lot of philosophy in there you don't get from the movie. A lot of what makes a soldier a soldier, and what makes a leader who he is. Philosophy on why compulsory service doesn't work. The book is a great read. I've read it several times and I love it. But I've seen the movie a hundred times too. The movie doesn't represent the book at all, but I love them both.
The book is a multi-read masterpiece. The movie is not.
It also has the beginnings of a better form of government that we currently have. In the book obviously.
@@michaelmaroney1660 Ehhhhhhhh. In certain ways.
@@krow7402 I'm not saying that it is perfect by any means. But the idea of dividing society by those who are willing to sacrifice for it does make a lot of sense.

0:42 Love how Bronski was just walking minding his own business then has 0 hesitation to bring out his baton and start chasing him
The best drill sergeant since Gunnery Sergeant Hartman Full Metal Jackets.
2:30
That's a really fucking smooth technique by Zim, I have to say. He was trained well.
That's why he's the one who captures the brain bug in the end.
In most movies, Clancy Brown has that cold yet charismatic attitude which makes him a unique character.
I love this movie so much. If I'm half the man Rico is, I will die happy
When I first watched this film back in 2000, I enjoyed it.
Warched this again in 2022, I love it.
She would've made a great Cammy in a Street Fighter movie.
This movie is still very much relevant in this day and age, the CGI was way ahead of it's time!
Mr Krabs during his navy days
The actor who plays dizzy wouldve been a perfect Cammy.
Ace's "ha ha ha ha" has been haunting me these decades.
I love the "acting" in this movie, right down to that "ha ha ha"!
The big guy went for it, I can respect that.
Shoulda tried for a shoulder tackle instead of leading with his hands for some silly reason.
happy to see that some things are still handled the old school way in the future
Zim is exactly what a sergeant should be. As soon as he saw something happening in the line, he was right there, ready to nip anything in the bud, knowing he could kick everyone’s ass, but preferring to let the privates show who they are. And he clearly liked what he saw from Ace and Rico.
"Is that you, John Wayne? Is this me?"
"You will not laugh, you will not cry! You will learn by the numbers, I will teach you!"
Drill Instructor's face at 0:58 is priceless :)
Sgt Zim is a pure definition of Psychological warfare
I love that they got Clancy Brown (Sgt. Zim) to play the exact character he was on "The Shawshank Redemption"
Zim and Hadley aren't the same. Zim does what he does to help the soldiers prepare for war, while Hadley is just a corrupt prison guard. They have verry little in common.
Far from it. They are entirely different characters, and I think it's a credit to Clancy Brown how he subtly puts across the differences.
Hadley is a bully. He likes inflicting pain and suffering to those who he has fully control over. I think you see a lot of his true self come out towards the end of the film, firstly after Andy has escaped and they are in the cell. You see the fear in him, the lack of control. The way he flinches when the warden is throwing rocks. He's dealing with someone who's smaller than him, weaker than him, but has so much power over him, and that terrifies him. Then also at the end when he's arrested. Again, he's afraid, he's powerless. The sort of men who he's spent his careers having almost unlimited power over are now fully controlling his life (since the police arresting him, the judges who will sentence him, the prison officers who will confine him are in most ways no different to the prisoners he's controlled).
Zim on the other hand is a "tough love" sort. He knows that he needs to turn these bunch that are below apes into a fighting force if they are to have any chance of surviving. He makes it clear he doesn't have full control over them. He tells them they can leave any time they want. You see a lot of his true self in two scenes. Firstly here, after he breaks the recruits arm. He asks "you ok son", and you can hear the care in his voice. He doesn't try and belittle him. The lesson is taught, to all of them. Then there is after the accident. For a start when they are discussing what happened, you can see how this is personal to him, yet he doesn't try and blame Rico, and backs him up. Then there is the whipping "bite down on his son, it helps, I know". Throughout the whole scene you can tell he's taking no pleasure in it. He doesn't want it to happen, he wishes it didn't need to happen, but it does. Another wonderful scene is when Rico decides not to drop out. Zim gives a little smile at this. Then when he rips up Ricos dropout form. "Is this your signature private?" "Doesn't look like it to me".

I love the policy; a recruit is allowed to challenge their training officer in combat, just make sure it’s what you want.
Clancy Brown is a national treasure
