Roughnecks: Starship Troopers the series

Anybody seen this? I just found these on Netflix. They look pretty decent with some cool design elements, although it's animation style is only a little better than GI Joe VvV.

But it got me to thinking; why couldn't they make a Colonial Marines animated series? If done properly, I feel it could be a sleeper hit.

Also, the I wish the Hellboy animated series would continue.

Same with the Amazing Screw-On Head.

I bought the full series on DVD a few years ago and was very disappointed. It ends with a huge cliffhanger and was cancelled so the DVD "complete series" is incomplete. As a whole though, it is a pretty good show. The animation isn't bad for when it was released. You can look around online and find the writers ideas for the final season which is pretty interesting.

Next to Beast Wars this was the 2nd best CGI series I have ever seen. When Star Wars the Old Republic is released next year I was contemplating on creating the Roughnecks as a Tribute to the legendary Razak's Roughnecks from the series.

I have grabbed a few via netflix and I have enjoyed them. Though if I remember right, arent they fairly stand alone adventures?

If you like CGI animation, you should check out The New Captain Scarlet. It's an update of the old Gerry Anderson show. I think it holds up pretty well. It also has some pretty nice vehicle designs.

They're organized into campaigns. You can watch them individually, but there is an overall story arc.

i remember it, some bugs could go into your brain and control you or something like that. they eventually made a 3rd film too but along with the 2nd film, they both sucked hard.

I used to watch it once in awhile, a fun series.

Underrated and superior stuff. The best non-joe military toon ever. Makes the live action movie sequals look like crap.

The problem that I remember with Roughnecks was people moving didn't seem natural. But at the time, the animation was state of the art. I know a lot of people don't like The Clone Wars, but the movement of characters has improved so much from Roughnecks.
