At least they remembered the powered armor this time. :)

Didn't they have that in the short lived cartoon series?

When this came out, I was blown away by the CG (not so much anymore), but I didn't have the cable channel it aired on. It's available on DVD now.

I spoke with one of the animators at the time, who said they could make it even more photo realistic but then it wouldn't read as animated, so lost the point of not doing live-action.

Ah... you make a good point. Look at me finding fault with the art of others.

I actually really want to watch this series. After reading a bit more, I found you can stream it on Netflix. I'll have to see if I can convince my wife to watch it with me. Little by little I am turning her in to a geek. An animated Starship Troopers might be a bit too much of a leap for her though.
