The director of the 1997 sci-fi film, which has often been misunderstood, says the gung-ho soldiers who are its heroes "are fascists without knowing that they’re fascists. That’s the point.”

This is sad that we’re at this point in history when we have to have the obvious confirmed due to a lack of intelligence in the majority of a first world country.

    I enjoyed the book so much and I knew that the author had feelings about this. It wasn’t pro war. It was a response to the dropping of the Atomic bomb. It’s satire but an idiot can’t pick up on it. I loved Zim’s character in the book.
