Starship Troopers Movie Description:
In the distant future, the Earth is at war with a race of giant alien insects. Little is known about the Bugs except that they are intent on the eradication of all human life. But there was a time before the war... A Mobile Infantry travels to distant alien planets to take the war to the Bugs. They are a ruthless enemy with only one mission: Survival of their species no matter what the cost...
Starship Troopers is a 1997 American military science fiction action film directed by Paul Verhoeven and written by Edward Neumeier, based on Robert A. Heinlein's 1959 novel of the same name. The story follows a young soldier named Johnny Rico and his exploits in the Mobile Infantry, a futuristic military unit. Rico's military career progresses from recruit, to non-commissioned officer, and finally to officer, against the backdrop of an interstellar war between mankind and an insectoid species known as Arachnids.
The only theatrically released film in the Starship Troopers film series, it received mostly negative reviews from critics upon release; however, it has received a more positive reception in retrospect, with many critics highlighting the film's political satire. It grossed $54.5 million in the U.S., and a total of $121.2 million worldwide, against a budget of $105 million. In 1998, the film was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Visual Effects at the 70th Academy Awards. In 2012, Slant Magazine ranked the film #20 on its list of "The 100 Best Films of the 1990s".
The film has spawned several sequels - two live-action films, Starship Troopers 2: Hero of the Federation (2004) and Starship Troopers 3: Marauder (2008), and two computer-animated films, Starship Troopers: Invasion (2012) and Starship Troopers: Traitor of Mars (2017).

OMG! HAD ME ON THE EDGE OF MY SEAT! AHOOO!!!
Please Share And Like The Video!
Brilliant choice for this evening Mellverse hope you enjoyed the film ,can't wait for the next one what is it?
GREAT MOVIE CHOICE Man!
I seen this at Theater when was New long time ago.
Mell, there's a great video called "The Politics Of Starship Troopers" here on RUclips and it is great documentary. I highly recommend watching it on your own time.
Really cool pick dude love this movie
The actors were reluctant to film the shower scene, but said they would do it if Verhoeven directed the scene naked. So he did.
Haha thats great
When I first heard that I remember thinking, “Well damn, no wonder everyone gave it their all in this B-Film, they were having fun.”
I didn't know this, but several internet sources confirm it. Thanks for this tidbit!
-signed someone that saw this in the theater the month it was released.
As I understand it *everyone* involved in the scene did it nude too, including the camera operators
He also directed that single scene like a conductor, using his raging boner to silently guide them.
The reason the ships and stations look real and the planets look CGI, They used Scale Models mixed with CGI.
And it helps trick the brain to accepting the CG stuff cuz there's something 'real' there as well. At least makes the uncanny valley feel less intense.
It also helps that the models are enormous, the main studio model of the _Rodger Young_ is eighteen feet long.
They did that with terminator 2 when sarah was in the park and everything was being blown up
I've Seen Lot Of CGI Everytime I Watched On DVD Or Music Videos
I love how they censored the cow getting merked but then immediately cut to gruesome, chopped up humans lol
Such a perfect representation of how we censor things in the U.S. lol
People would rather see people cut apart than a poor animal
@@epicsshadesmaster-animatio4398 I never understood this point of view
@@kobi7955 me either to be honest
My hope in life is that everybody finds their own version of Dizzy that’s a true ride or die girl right there. Johnny wasted so much time on Carmen
Me too just because it’s so nice and awesome to have a dizzy it’s rare honeslty
Fun fact: the blind science teacher was portrayed by Rue McClanahan, who played Blanche on "The Golden Girls."
Incredible.
I didn't catch that until I looked up the cast.
Thank you for being a friend.
And Michael Ironside played Razchek
It's also not the first time she played a blind character. She played Greg Kinars blind mom in Dear God
I wouldn't say this is the most graphic sci-fi movie. I'm sure there are others.
Fun Fact: During the live-fire training scene, Djana'D (Tami-Adrian George) shoots and kills Breckinridge (Eric Bruskotter) accidentally, resulting in Rico's flogging. In real life, the two actors are together and have a child. They met on this film.
Kadunk ...You know it's love when she kills you before you go on your first date.
Annihilation may not have had the highest body count, but every death scene was unbelievably shocking.
@@Kadunk911 I mean she shot him in the head so she had to make it up to him somehow.
Beat me to it. I see you a Gator of culture as well
Tachyon83 ...I love a good love story. 👍
"The more the movie goes on, the easier the bugs seem to be to kill."
I always figured that was because as the movie ran on, they got more experience and became more effective in killing bugs.
In one of the infomercials they explain that the best way to kill the bugs is to aim for the nerve cluster. In the first drop they shoot the bugs everywhere except the nerve cluster. They spent ages learning to fight human opponents despite knowing their biggest enemies were bugs and then wondered why their first battle failed.
@@ithrilzyne4542well to be fair they didn't know or want to go to war with them, however yeah they should have trained for them since they were a potential opponent HOWEVER Rico's troop was very fresh and the war started in the middle of their training so who knows what other units learned
Also yeah the nerve cluster is a nice detail to allow them to kill more bugs faster but also have some take a while to kill
One thing to also note is how they hold their weapons.
In the first battle they're elevated along with their eyes locked on to the Warrior Bug's mandibles which seems to be the most dangerous part of the bug. When they start shooting you see a lot of holes getting punched into the mandibles but it seems like its mostly carapace. The bug clearly feels it but because their not hitting vital, so the bug can continue to attack and maim them until it either dies from shock, blood loss, or a lucky hit.
In later battles the Troopers going more for center mass were the nerve stem is. The fact that the Troopers are a bit more hardened by this point means that they aren't panicking any more which is another improvement. This gives them better results but it still requires 2-3 bursts at least before a bug goes down.
To actually be effective the Mobile Infantry needs to be mobile, bring down a few gun trucks that ride ahead of the main formation to ID bug holes while the rest of the troops ride in APCs to clear out clusters. Or have those strike aircraft on standby to blast any cluster greater than a dozen bugs.
But the Federation is fueled by blood not good ideas so that's not likely to happen.
I cry a little every time I see the part with Dizzy dying. :(
Facts :(
Hit me every time like It’s happening for the first time just like Mufasa
@Ben Franklin agreed
It's a sad moment, yes. At least she got to sleep with Rico. It's what she wanted all along.
The movie is based on the novel by Robert Heinlein. When Paul Verhoeven read the book, he read like the first 20 pages and turned it into a Satire, as the book had no satire, implying it's a very dark and serious Sci Fi novel.
Paul Verhoeven didn't understand the book at all. This movie should be looked at as something 100% seperate.
The book is practically straight up military propaganda. It's so, so bland. My least favorite Heinlein book I think.
@@discoskull
More of a treatise on futuristic military policy. But I agree, it was a hard read to get through.
@@discoskull That's exactly what I thought, too. It may be top 3 books I ever read I just fucking hate because it's boring.
@@KevinM491 It's not that he didn't understand it. He just didn't take cringe military propaganda seriously lmfao
As an amputee, I find it hilarious to see kids reactions! It's the adults who stare and pretend they aren't that are annoying. I've heard kids say some amazing things, like, "he's got a robot leg" or "is he a transformer" or other cool things. Many kids ask really great questions and I love answering them. If you ever see me, with my Captain America prosthetic right leg, ask any questions you want brother!
I have a question. Assuming you date, do you think people are more, the same, or less likely to date you given your prosthetic?
@@Aeroldoth3 depends on the person really. Some people can see past it, some can't. It's more work honestly, but probably less likely overall. I think my personality and demeanor are more important.
@@jasonsabbath6996
So people either have a neutral or negative reaction, never positive? Sorry to hear that.
Thanks for answering, wish you well.
@@Aeroldoth3 I find children have way more positive responses than adults. Adults tend to think about how they would feel being me, without ever asking what it's actually like. Children actually ask me what it's like. Their first question is usua6if it hurts, which is super cute and a very empathetic reaction. Though some adults absolutely love my prosthetic! It has a Captain America design, which IMHO is pretty damn awesome! 😊
Thanks for the well wishes and same to you.
@@jasonsabbath6996
I think we lose empathy as we age, as life beats us down.
YOOOOO, that reaction to Denise Richards had me fucking dying. Was absolutely the appropriate response. Got a sub from me on that one
hmm i don't know... i don't find her particularly attractive.. her fake lips and nose kinda trigger me
@@stefanforrer2573 thats cool, but i dont recall anyone asking you
She belong to the STREETS!
"When I was a kid I used to point out that people were missing parts to the point my mother would pop me before I even said anything"
2 minutes later:
"Oh, her eyes are gone"
I didn't realize that was Rue McClanahan with missing eyes until I looked up the cast.
@@nopewmopan I've seen this movie three or four times and never knew that was blanche!
I came here to point out the exact same thing.
When he said "Oh, her eyes are gone" I nearly spat out my drink, especially since the irony was lost on him.
I love this movie, and I think it got a really bad rap when it first came out, because people didn't understand it.
I don't judge a movie based on special effects, but I have to say that these effects, especially for the time, are phenomenal.
Most of the effects, ESPECIALLY the practical ones, hold up so well to this day, its one of those movies with a timeless message as well.
It was actually nominated for a visual effects Oscar
I know, everyone took it as a fascist military propaganda movie, when it was the complete opposite making fun of it.
Exactly, the propaganda elements, the over the top patriotism, the cheesy b-movie call backs. It was definitely a lot more than just a gory sci-fi but rolled up in a fun action package.
@@amberkelly3187 Verhoeven kind of screwed up on this one, IMO
This film is SUCH a wild ride. It’s so fun and so nasty
@@mikemath9508 It's a comedy / satire. It's also sci-fi / action / war. Probably a few other things.
It's a great flick.
This was the only decent “Starship Troopers” lol, the sequels were all straight to video bad bad movies 😂
A lot like the “From dusk till dawn” movies
I refuse to acknowledge ST2 and ST3 at all, though the two animated films were ok. While highly dated, the animated series was phenomenal and a perfect blending of the book and movie.
While it may not be up your alley, the Starship Troopers CGI series is pretty good. Also, made in the 80s is a Starship Troopers anime. Only 5 episodes, and does go a bit different in how it portrayed things, I feel it did capture the spirit of the novel. You can find them on RUclips by looking up Starship troopers anime.
Most of us in the SST community renounce the 2nd as not existing as all. "Roughneck Chronicles" (The "kids" tv version of the show) is pretty good though, considering it's age and all
@@tachyon8317 I remember going to a movie rental place and getting Roughneck Chronicles as a kid. Lol, the good ol’ days. They were really awesome to watch. When I finally saw SST when I was older I was like OMG I recognize this stuff, the Roughnecks, Rico, Dizz, etc…
Starship Troopers functions so well as both a satire and a genuine action movie. Same with robocop. Verhoven's ability to blend satire and action is unparalleled
This movie is bonkers! Hitting play now. Because I'm doing my part!
I'm doing my part
Service guarantees citizenship!
He said, "Damn, Mr. Krabs." Clancy is from my home town and he's a really nice dude. Just throwing that out there because he's the only cool part about my home town. Also, I never realized he was in this movie.
He was also The Kurgan from Highlander.
He Was Also Voice Of Mr. Krabs From SpongeBob Squarepants
This movie has become Iconic over the years. Very entertaining.
After all these years I’m still in love with Dizzy!
Starship troopers is a classic!!!
"Never pass up a good thing."
[...later...]
"Better make it 20 minutes."
Hell yes!! Dizzy was so damn gorgeous 💛
Because she was hot. And was a soldier
Please watch "Total Recall" (1990)! Also from Paul Verhoeven and it's with Arnold Schwarzenegger!
All his movie are super cheesy. Not that that’s a bad thing.
And Michael Ironside
Yeah that has to be next
@@pawpaw6802 Was about to say. That guy makes every movie better.
"To have babies you need a license" Welcome to Space China
Any European/NA country would’ve do that to if they had 1,5 billion population
I’m living for the Dub action from you for the bugs. Lol “Are you sure it’s this way man?”
His dubbing for the zombies in Night of the Living Dead reigns supreme.
@@MrZilla good to know. I’ll have to check that one out for sure. 👍🏻
Lmao 🤣 at your smile on “my dads not home tonight “ line
Absolutely great film! The visual effects are really impressive
Grab your Snacks!
Arachnids: okee dokee
Yes It Is
Lol, Mel had WAY too much fun doing commentary for the bugs.
And I had fun hearing him do it!
I was thinking the same thing lmao
Best part of the Reaction
Lol me and my cousin shout out “RICO!!!!” Every time we see each other we watched this as kids 😂
"I know there's some people out there that actually has that tattoo" - literally saw a dude in the Army at the track with it yesterday.
This gave alot of inspiration for Halo
Same
I worked on Halo and Halo 2 and there were a lot of people on the Bungie team that bad mouthed this film, I didn't like it that much the 1st time I watched it but I love it now.
@@JuanRamirez-xh3kc Oh my God you worked on Halo 😳 and I didn’t like this movie when I first watched it but over the years I’ve came to enjoy it
@@JuanRamirez-xh3kc I, like many of the time, got super into it. Read the books and went to midnight releases. Spartan 117 made an impact
@@RealMightyC I remember some of the guys regularly calling it Starship Poopers" and stuff like that which I didn't get since it never seemed that bad to me even though I wasn't crazy about it either at the time.I really like it a lot now though.
This comes out, then Starcraft, HALO a few years later. It was a good time for killing aliens.
No wonder they are hesitant to say hi
Fitting since both Starcraft and Halo were based off Starship Troopers (the book, not the movie)
Helldivers
@@VegetaLF7 That book is a real trooper.
_ZERG!!_ The very _mention_ of this terrifying race once struck fear into people's hearts!
I love how you unprompted naturally fell into voicing the bugs 😆🤣😂
You know what's funny. That drill Sargent is the voice of Mr Krabs hahahah.
I'm not saying this is my favorite movie, but I've definitely seen it more times than any other movie.
"Isn't that illegal sir?" Lol. That had me rolling lol.
Sad but rue, it doesn't matter In war. No one goes through and does forensic analysis to determine whether it was an enemy or friendly weapon that killed you.
@@TresTrefusis bruh.. its a satire on fascism, ofcourse you get executed for disobeying an order, also my dude.. also the rest of what you said is just ignorant lmfao
@@steves578 so what is ignorant about it? Oh you haven't heard of a platoon dealing with an unfit leader by rolling a hand grenade into his fox hole while an artillary bombardment is going on have you? You really think that we troll the battle field to make sure every friendly casualty was killed by an enemy weapon... hell no. I was a Marine for 4 years, stfu about things you don't know about.
Lmao Mell I love when you start voicing the creatures / monsters / animals in these movies! XD
“Girl, pay attention to the space” made me laugh.
gears of war horde mode is a good choice for endless onslaught
the starship troopers game give you a chance to actually fight in the outpost.
BOOM!
Where I work, I introduced the phrase "Flip six three-hole" to mean, "Don't ask how to do it. Just go figure something out". Half the people who use it, have no clue where it came from. It's just become part of the vocabulary
Mel is definitely a real one lmao 🤣 I love that he just speaks his mind and doesn't give a shit about being PC. This video was hilarious.
Mad props to the editing work you put into these videos, it really makes them stand out and keeps things entertaining throughout ! Love it man
🤫 “Just watch the fucking movie” 😂. Love it
9:00, that's right, yet Johnny doesn't know what kind of hell he will be going through to impress his girl.
You captioning the bugs is hilarious.
This is one of them movies I loved as a kid and loved even more after rewatching as an adult
Hell yeah, welcome to the Roughnecks. 😎
I saw this movie when I was probably too young for it in the early 2000s, I’m happy it can still get audible reactions from people 2 decades later.
Dude, you are on a roll! Shawshank, Green Mile and then Starship Troopers?! You are spoiling us... and screw the haters! Your form of presentation in these vids is awesome and your enthusiasm for film is infectious!
It's a shame that this movie didn't get more recognition when it was first released, but between a lot of critics & moviegoers not getting the satire and being in direct competition with Titanic, it was kinda doomed. Fortunately it's found its audience since!
Carmen had always gotten a lot of shit, but really she's only acting like a typical male character (avoiding commitment, playing the field, stringing someone along and putting career first) while Johnny is playing a more female role (being faithful, dropping the L word etc), so the hate against her behaviour is quite ironic! Verhoeven was quite perplexed at this reaction and had to tone her down after test screenings, because the audience flat-out hated her for treating Johnny like that!
A note on the visual effects. The space FX were handled by several different companies so the quality really does vary. The CG creature FX were pretty much at the cutting edge of what was possible for the time though, and like Jurassic Park, I think they still hold up today!
Oh, and there was a computer game that was released a few years after the movie. It was a pretty standard run-around-and-shoot-the-monsters affair, but I enjoyed it!
Aliens, Starship Troopers...
Now just need Wrath of Khaaaaan! and The Fifth Element, to wrap up my like "Top 4 Movies of All Time."
It had a full month before Titanic, as opposed to Tomorrow Never Dies.
@@jp3813 I'd forgotten then. I just remember it being out at the same time as Titanic over here in England, and it seemed to get very little time in the cinemas - I certainly missed it!
@@Daveyboy100880 Well, in the case of UK wide releases (not counting London premieres):
Tomorrow Never Dies = December 12, 1997
Starship Troopers = January 2, 1998
Titanic = January 23, 1998
@@jp3813 Thanks for that info, buddy! It helps me clarify what was what back then.
“They shootin shit!” Hahaha had me rolling!
Man the amount of posts bringing up games like or inspired by Starship Troopers and almost nobody has mentioned the Lost Planet games.
I still haven’t played LP2
imagine seeing this as a child in 97
I remember seeing this as a teenager in '97... It ... was ... awesome! Still one of many favorites.
My Dad rented it from blockbuster probably some time in 1998, when I was 7.
Amazing.
I was shit scared but loved it also.
Still love it to this day.
Keep up the good editing. This was one of your best ones yet. GJ. I had some good laughs during this.
I had to pause the video for several minutes, because of that Trailer Park Boys edit. 🤣🤣🤣
This movie held up so well, I was happy and surprised to see it won the poll.
Always found the scene with the live ammo where Riko gets in trouble for taking off the helmet odd. Helmet or not, the big guy got shot through the eye, he's still dead.
Yeah exactly, not like there's some invisible force field in front of their faces...
And also, regarding their live fire exercise - the laser beams would be flying quite far, into the cantina, into the command centre, etc. right? And so would their live rounds. There'd be lots more friendly fire and casualties like that. Movies..... :))
I watched this for your commentary alone 😂😂😂😂 I knew it would be comedy gold 👍👍
Dude, I'm laughing my ass off. Great reaction. This movie is always a guilty pleasure.
Plus it seems every vid you have Mass Effect in there.
The film is a satire of fascism and I think it looks absolutely fantastic for a flick released in 1997.
I'm sorry, but I couldn't stop laughing at how severe your sympathy pains were. Don't get me wrong, I get them too. But yours are just about the most extreme that I have ever seen. Great reaction, now I have to see if you have reacted to any more of my favorite movies.
"Pay attention to the space!" Hilarious.
mell getting me laughing at these jokes
One of my top 10 syfy movies!(i watch a ton of syfy so lots of favorites lol)
I gotta say....you and Mr Video are by far and away my favorite movie reactors. The humor that you put into your reviews bring me back to college watching movies with my buddies and poking fun at things in the movie. Ive had a rough go of things medically and had some real shitty days and no matter how bad I feel....I can watch your reviews and spending a few minutes laughing and smiling have brought some relief and joy in my life and I just wanted to say thank you my friend. You're doing a hell of a job...keep up the good stuff buddy!
I like to think that the reason the bugs started getting easier to kill is because when Rico and the others first started, they was rookies and was just shooting at the bugs as a whole and wasn't really doing much damage to them, but as they started becoming more seasoned soldiers they knew what it took to bring them down. Early in the movie Carl did say that you could remove a limb and they was still 86% combat effective, but if you aimed for the nerve stem you could put them down for good.
I just about lost it when you started doing the alien voice around 20:00 “you still feel in’ me? Keep that same energy. Man you stupid you should have kept running” I’m deeeed I’m alive but I’m ded
The film was nominated for Best Visual Effects but lost to Titanic. It was even released a week before it opened.
both still hold up great and are unforgettable
I keep laughing at your improv for the bugs. "Man you still filming me?" "Yo, you sure we going the right way?" 😄👏
8 mins in and this is my fav video of yours so far! Watching you get super into the love story was hilarious!!
If you want more space gore, I recommend you watch Event Horizon.
This, so much yes!
Don't listen to Retrobox. Event Horizon is full of rainbows and puppies. It's a heartwarming and cute movie.
You should still watch it, though.
@@OathofLight so Rainbows and puppies were the inspiration for Dead Space?
Yes, you will have pleasant dreams.
One of the best "why space travel is safe" advertisements
People really watch reactions just to see the movie then get upset when there are pauses and cuts? The hell?
Growing up my dad would pause whatever movie we were watching to talk about it. A two hour movie would turn into a three hour movie and I use to HATE IT, but now I do the same thing 😆 so I really enjoy watching your reactions and commentaries.
If you pay close attention to the shower scene, it's actually one of the most important scenes in the movie... Everyone is engaged in normal conversation as if they were just standing in town square. No ones eyes drift below the shoulders, or is looking at anyone else's body in a sexual manner, showing that their society has achieved true equality
I think there are probably 2 things that explain the fact the characters kill the bugs much faster as the movie goes on.
1.) The characters start as rookies, and they actually improve their skills as soldiers, as the movie progresses.
2.) It seems based on some context clues that the war with the bugs started VERY recently, and their huge military industrial complex was already a thing prior to the war. One of the bigger context clues IMO, would be the training facilities all having humanoid targets, and most of their training still focused around things that wouldn't apply to bugs (like the whole 'your enemy can't push a button if you disable their hands.' bit).
Best line from a Starship Troopers reaction: "That vagina bug just Capri Sunned that man!" (Emily, Just Summ Reactions)
Lmfaooo your reactions and commentary always the me dying especially the random VO😅🤣😭🤣🤣🤣
Loved your reactions you had to this movie! One of my all time favorites to just sit back and have a good time with.
35:07 here's a tip, they're aiming for the nerve stem ;}
I dragged my grandma to this movie. I can't believe she went to any other movies with me after that
The look on your face at the gory scenes was priceless!
16:10 you got me laughing so hard with that Mass Effect 3 music. Lmaooooo
The depth of political commentary disguised on display is unrivaled.
Would you like to know more?
This is one of the best pieces of satire/commentary on a fascist government. Michael ironside (the lt/teacher) once asked Verhoeven why he would portray a fascist regime as successfull since the director had grown up in nazi occupied territory and he said that if he showed it as failing that people would say "of course it failed" but showing it at its peak shows what appeals to people about it.
quick edit: the reason the officer's outfits look like nazi uniforms was very purposeful to really hit home that fascist/authoritarian regime style.
Lol great reaction. Loved the narration for the bugs. :)
I laughed so hard at your voice acting for the bugs 🤣 it was so freakin funny
🤣👍BRO i only watch for one reason and one reason only and that is your flatout fucking funny ass commentary 😎🍺keep doing what your doing!!
I remember watching this movie back when it came out, I was around 5 or so when I saw it with my dad. We were in Arizona with my mum for a nursing conference. This was my first rated R movie :). I was scared shitless of the movie, but I still watched it lol. And after watching it a couple of times I realized it wasn't all that scary.
Also fun fact: There was an early morning cartoon called, Starship Troopers Roughneck Chronicles. It was actually a good series, had its dark moments, and showed somethings from the book, like the skinnies. Though it didn't have the ape suits, they did have power armor and mechsuits. They did reuse some scenes though because yeah early cgi shows were expensive lol.
And yes they made games of the movie, when is called Starship troopers Terran Assault which is RTS, and one called Starship Troopers fps where you play as an original character called Marauder. And some mobile game but its shit imo. They're now working on Starship Troopers Terran Command which is an RTS as well.
Bro I love your commentary. This went from a Sci-fi action to a comedy real quick.🤣🤣
Holy crap, man. Your voice over dubs for the bugs was hilarious! Thanks for that. Classic movie.
When this came out, as teenagers we thought it was a silly sci fi movie. Now we realize its a cheesy, satirical action masterpiece! Just like Robocop!!
28:02 remember that quote from actor Michael Ironside, he uses it in another movie, Scanners (1981) directed by David Cronenberg if you get a chance to react to that movie.
I saw Scanners a few months ago. Loved it.
Mel, I really love your review and reactions. Thank you and I hope you have a wonderful one!
"We can do it. 2 minutes. That's all I need".

Hugs from Alberta, Canada. Your laugh and smile got my husband and I through Covid lock down. Thank you. Would love to see you watch "The Frighteners" staring Michael J Fox.

I was already laughing at you doing the bug voices but 27:24 I lost it LOL.
I remember watching a film that was a making of this, was cool seeing how they did the effects
3:06 Lmao took me out 💀
i helped vote this in you're welcome 🤣
they ranked up quick cause of all the others not being able to continue
HA! HA! I LOVED your bug commentary.. reminds me of when i was in collage we would get together and watch old Kung Fu movies and make up our own dialog.
The funniest video-reaction on RUclips this month :) You're a genius
