It just hit me. Starshit Troopers is getting the amount of publicity now that it would usually only have a couple of weeks before it came out. It's on everyone's tongue and mind in this ng [newsgroup]. Don't worry about Harry, ST is getting loads of free publicity. (and Dennis Rodman is right, the only negative publicity is an obit.)

The machines are usually better than the movie. Let's see: Starshit Troopers / The Shadow / Terminator 3 / Congo / Johnny Mnemonic / Demolition Man / Just to name a few.
