OK, I wasn't a ground pounder but I will wear the shirt anyway. Those 11 Bang Bangs will have to just accept the fact there are other folks who loved the Mobile Infantry.
Seeing one of my favorite movies of all time turned into a shirt is awesome, especially a badass shirt that is almost an inside joke for anyone who has seem the movie. Just like my last buy, grabbing 2, because you never know.
The side art of the "spartan helmet" is a MashedPotato of "born to kill" from Full Metal Jacket, and Maximus' helmet in Gladiator. And btw, the design for Maximu's helmet is an untwilled Corinthian helmet, which is what the Spartans wore, except twilled with horse hair to show rank ect. No one is wrong, but none of you are exactly right(;

Unless I'm mistaken, thats not a Spartan helmet, but instead it's the helmet that Maximus wore in Gladiator
born to kill from full metal jacket
Born to Kill is from FMJ, yes. But the helmet is from Gladiator.
As for today's shirt, I like the design, but not the movie so much. So it's a no for me. Good luck with sales, and congrats on another print, though. Like I said, I think the design really is quite nice.

Actually it's a helmet of great and terrible power which was wrenched fourth from the innards of a dying robot dinosaur by a tapdancing mickey mouse while aliens abducted the last of the rogue unicorns and a staggeringly muscular man sat on the point of the empire state building and ate spaghetti
EvilAshe said: Psst: advertising you like a terrible movie on your shirt is a bad thing.
By "terrible movie", you really mean "outstanding film". Correct?
Probably one of the most misunderstood/underrated movies, also one of the few ones where I have wathed the commentary part of the DVD, I higly recommend doing that!
Wow, a lot of ignorant comments here. The helmet is from Gladiator and looks absolutely nothing like the gear from that over-blown, slow-motion bloated excuse for a film. Has it really been so long that Ridley Scott's epic film from only 11 years ago has been completely forgotten? Do we really need to get a remake of that one too since you all clearly lack the motivation to broaden your knowledge unless it's handed to you on a green screen with a side of 3d gimmickery? Dammit, people annoy me.
Anyway, this is too good a shirt for too crappy a film. Gonna have to pass. But I'm very interested in Kate H, Candace G and Kelly F. Just sayin'.

no Starship Troopers is an amazing cinematic adventure and if your going to be negative don't say anything at all ! i want you to make a print and get negative feedback and ill be one of those people!

This just drips of hypocrisy. But I must say, I like your initial statement. Let's just never offer any negative feedback on anything and only hand out hugs and compliments. That way we'll all be immersed in mediocrity but we'll all feel very good about ourselves. Brilliant plan.
Great book AND a great movie. ALL sci-fi is cheesy. No matter if you hate Starship Troopers but love Evil Dead, the "cool kids" are still going to laugh at you while they watch sports and drink lite beer.
Wow, great timing considering the movie came out 14 years ago today. My Wife and I saw it together on our first date, that's how I know that off the top of my head.
Been buying shirts here for a while, but never felt the need to comment until today. I cannot believe their is so much love for that horrible film. Starship Troopers is an outstanding book, and that two-bit hack Verhoeven made a travesty out of it. So much potential utterly wasted.
That being said, this shirt is sharp looking and well made...just picked an embarrassing example of "sci-fi" to use :(

I hope you're including yourself in that number, since the only thing this helmet has in common with a Corinthian helmet is the curve of the nape and possibly the ear cut outs.
On today's tee, it would have been nice to get the MI tat in there somewhere.
2 bought - One for my bro & me :)
