Sony, which is making a Helldivers 2 movie, is also making a new Starship Troopers movie, but it's not based on the Starship Troopers movie we already have

I mean, as long as they put effort into it and cater to the fan base, it could do well. If it is just an attempt at using an established name to create a new, generic sci-fi universe, it probably won't be a hit.
ok
- I'm so excited. This could be as good as Madame web, or Even Kraven.
  
  Next the eternals in the making!
Sony Pictures is rebooting one of their IPs?!
Ok but I didn't know about a helldiver's movie and I'm so fucking pumped.
FOR MANAGED DEMOCRACY ON THE BIG SCREEN WOOOOO
"Corporate needs you to find difference between this (motion) picture and this (motion) picture"
- But Helldivers is based on Starship troopers the movie not the book but the new Starship troppers movie will be based not on the movie, so, the book?
  The book and the movie are wildy different, the movie was made by someone that didn't bother reading the full book so just winged the story and made his own kida thing.
  
  That is leaving out the reason the movie isn't cloessly following the book. It's facistic. Like very much so.
- Well that sounds terrible
“Go back to the original novel…” and then do something completely different.
What about Helldivers 1? Seems weird to skip the first installment.
- The stuff you'd include in a movie (fascism, capes, managed democracy, friendly fire, dropships, weird aliens) are the same between the two installments.
Neat. Good thing the one movie described in the title won't allowed in my region cause sony has an hard on for discriminating against us.
