Mythology Gag | |
| Starship Troopers: Invasion / int_26ac510e | comment |
Mythology Gag: Quite a few: The first lines of the movie are taken word for word from the first lines of the book—though in this case, it's the narrator that offers the "eager racehorse" explanation rather than a physician. Trig and Bugspray flirt with "Would you like to know more?" and "Everyone's doing their part," lines prominent in the first film's propaganda. Rico shouts, "Come on you apes, you want to live for ever!?", practically the series' catchphrase, as he's dropping with his troopers toward the end. When Carmen is alone after Daugherty is killed, she hears a faint voice that eventually leads her to reunite with the surviving troopers. At the end of the film, it's revealed that Carl was psychically helping her, much like how saved her life in the first movie by directing Johnny psychically to her location. He even uses the same line when when Carmen asks him if he was helping her that he gave Johnny in the first film: "That's classified." | |

Despite outnumbering it three to one and having a heavily armed station as backup, they can barely manage to land a hit. The bugs, in control of the ship, manage direct and crippling hits with almost every attack. | |

Point Defenseless: Utterly averted. Rico loses most of his squad just trying to get down to the ground. Played straight with the L-6 base. It fires off exactly one barrage, which the John A. Warden then dodges, and afterwards, they are too close to fire more shots. Justified, however, in that Rico was hesitant to destroy the ship with his friends aboard who sent a message that they were still alive and fighting. | |

We Will Wear Armor in the Future: Complete with a Technology Porn gearing up scene, and armor within Mini-Mecha. The standard armor the characters wear most of the time has magnetic boots (complete with a Silent Running Mode that lets them move around whisper silent rather than clomping around like stormtroopers), and jet boosts for leaping, all of which get put to good use several times. | |

All Asians Know Martial Arts: Chow is the only Asian character and knows martial arts, which he demonstrates on Ratzass. Though he does pretty well at first, he is ultimately beaten when Ratzass is inspired by Ice Blonde flashing him, thus proving that boobs trump all. This also foreshadows his martial arts being useless against an unskilled but brutish and determined enemy, such as giant bugs. | |

Belief Makes You Stupid: Averted. Despite the tone of the previous movie, Invasion never treats religion negatively. There is only one guy in the squad (Holy Man) who actually believes, almost to excess in fact, but the other characters do little more than poke mild fun at him for it (because he's tattooed up the wazoo). At a base level, his faith is treated fairly, and it even gets a call back as a touching moment later. | |

Took a Level in Jerkass: Carl has definitely crossed over to the dark side. For all his My Country, Right or Wrong attitude in the first film, you at least got the sense that he genuinely cared about Carmen and Johnny. In Invasion, he's downright mean to Carmen, and Rico is obviously tempted to just leave Carl's ass in the proverbial fire during the climax. It's implied that he still cares about them a fair bit, though. He certainly didn't need Carmen alive to escape (or at least didn't know she'd be useful at the time), but he still telepathically guided her to the MI squad. | |

Hollywood Tactics | |
| Starship Troopers: Invasion / int_a6b14ee1 | comment |
Hollywood Tactics: Not glaringly obvious like the first team, but a lot of casualties would have been averted if the fighting were done more properly. The Mobile Infantry squads are still grossly under-armed. Their primary weapon is assault rifles, even with Bottomless Magazines, still need several seconds to down a single bug, while they are constantly swarmed with dozens. Ratzass has a minigun, Trig has a sniper rifle, Ice Blonde has some sort of light machinegun, Varro has an underbarrel grenade launcher, and that's it. Varro doesn't even use his grenade launcher until the very end. Maybe they do have more advanced weapon which were lost or ammunition depleted in previous missions, but the movie never made it clear. As the Warden approached Earth and had to be intercepted, the 3 intercepting ships flew on a straight line right in front of the Warden's main laser guns and predictably got blown up. As Rico and his men are dropped to the crashed Warden, they didn't even bother to spread out while air-borne, and most were wiped out mid-air. Rico only survived thanks to Plot Armor. | |

Bottomless Magazines | |
| Starship Troopers: Invasion / int_b2cdd776 | comment |
The Mobile Infantry squads are still grossly under-armed. Their primary weapon is assault rifles, even with Bottomless Magazines, still need several seconds to down a single bug, while they are constantly swarmed with dozens. Ratzass has a minigun, Trig has a sniper rifle, Ice Blonde has some sort of light machinegun, Varro has an underbarrel grenade launcher, and that's it. Varro doesn't even use his grenade launcher until the very end. Maybe they do have more advanced weapon which were lost or ammunition depleted in previous missions, but the movie never made it clear. | |

Shout-Out: One, possibly two for Aliens, most obviously with the motion-tracker and less obviously when Trig climbs into the air duct. That said, Bishop lives, but Trig doesn't. The sniper gun Trig carries looks very similar to the Cobra Assault Cannon from RoboCop. The voice that whispers to Carmen in the hallway says "Over here," almost exactly how Mac says it in Predator. | |
