Product Details


Product Description

From Amazon.com

Razak's Roughnecks, the toughest marines to spatter a space bug across the interstellar landscape, return in the second feature-length collection from the cult TV series, a completely computer-animated space-age epic based on Robert Heinlein's Starship Troopers. On the jungle planet Tesca, the Roughnecks confront a whole new array of bug soldiers, including web-spewing spiders and sea-based water tigers, as well as their own prejudices. Their newest squadmate is an alien and a former enemy, and a marine is not quick to forgive. Played out as a single movie, The Tesca Campaign has the feeling of a World War II platoon drama crossed with a Japanese space opera. The stylized CGI animation forgoes realism for dynamic direction, energetic action, and stylized designs, making for an impressive world of mechanical creations and insectoid creatures. The PG-level violence (there's a big bug body count) isn't appropriate for young children. --Sean Axmaker

This review is from: Roughnecks: Starship Troopers Chronicles : The Tesca Campaign (DVD)
This was one of my favorite campaigns for the series. My favorite episode is in it. It is the one with the huge Jungle Spider picking everyone off. Then Rico is forced to help T'Phai. They Recover the team and everything is well.

5.0 out of 5 stars Roughnecks-The Starshop Troopers Chronicles series, Jun 15 2003

This review is from: Roughnecks: Starship Troopers Chronicles : The Tesca Campaign (DVD)
I watched the whole series on tv and on dvd and I liked all of it. However the dvd series is missing some vital episodes that was shown on tv that is not in the dvd series. One of them is a segment of episodes that they are stranded on an astreoid, Zander is sick from a strange virus, the firefryes on the asteroid, and realizing that the asteroid is in reality a bug in a dorment statious. Not to mention an episode that they look for the queen that is on a transport but on it's way to Terran that is supposed to be last episode in the Klendathue Campain. You see there are some episodes that are not on dvd that are suposed to be with the series that are not with it. I would also like to know when the grand fanally of the series is going to come up in who is going to win the war between the bugs and the Roughnecks. now that is a fanally I want to see.

4.0 out of 5 stars So Where's Their Hugo Award?!, Jun 10 2002
By 
M. Packo (Stratford, CT United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This episode, at the chronicle's half-way point, proves conclusively that Roughnecks should rightfully be considered
a Science Fiction landmark.
Forget the awkwardly conceived Starship Troopers film, this is
true Heinlein. In fact, for a computer animated "cartoon" series, there is more interesting detail, depth and characterization then is normally encountered in most normal
TV and film fare. Why the creators of Roughnecks have not already been voted at least one Hugo award for their efforts is
a ridiculous lapse in judgement -- especially considering the
absurd awarding of Harry Potter.

Roughnecks is the mini-series I imagined possible when I first
saw the Sexy Robot American Can commercial on television over 20
years ago. Let's hope there's much more to come from these folks; the makers of Final Fantasy have a lot to learn from them!
