The big climax is when they find the “thinking” bug, which most people argue can’t possibly exist because bugs can’t think. But, if bugs can’t think then how did they 1) decide to attack earth (let alone know there were beings on other planets) 2) learn to control and target meteors to use them as weapons? Craziness like this is why it is now the number 1 seed in the North.

I’ve found that some people don’t quite get the fact that the director is dis’ing Heinlein.

Scary how the propaganda sequences in the film compares to Fox News and the Iraq war.
