So lets say hypothetically you had to watch a movie right now. Obviously you're gonna pick something you've seen before, and is pretty entertaining. What would you pick? Or maybe a movie thats better with friends? Idk just give me good movies

It’s easy it be able to enjoy the book and movie as what they each aspire to be and treat them separately.

We’ll never get a movie rendition of the book (which is more than just putting power armor in it), but that’s alright.

If you like the book, I consider it part of the power armor trifecta along with Forever War, and Armor.

For general military scifi I recommend Tactics Of Mistake which is basically the applied Art Of War but in space. There is also Old Man’s War and if you just want power armor schlock, the original series of Halo books are better than they have any right to be.
