* During this final conversation the Sky Marshall is still using platitudes to describe his treason while Behemacoytl dropped all pretenses. Anoke is so enthralled that when the Bug God flat out says "I'm going to kill you, steal your secrets, and wipe out your people" he keeps answering back "yes, so you can bring peace and show us your love!"

* Sky Marshall Anoke is introduced as not only being a beloved general, but also a beloved ''pop star'', performing a glurgy patriotic song and dance for a cheering audience, complete with follow-the-bouncing-ball lyrics. The song, called "It's A Good Day to Die (When You Know The Reason Why)", [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j3sU8NPCYmc has to be seen to be believed.]] And then the propaganda newscaster still manages to undercut the government message by throwing a sales pitch for [[TheMerch Sky Marshall Anoke merchandise]], saying that it's a Good Day to ''Buy''.

** Trench Warfare was quite effective for hundreds of years as a defensive tactic, and even as a siege tactic (allowing attacking troops to progressively dig their way closer and closer to an enemy fortification). The reasons it fell out of favor included the rapid increase in firepower making it far more difficult for either side to get ''out'' of the trenches to advance, and the rise of airpower negating many of the two-dimensional advantages of earthworks (which, [[InfoDump all that said]], are still used to this day). That said, an interstellar war can be safely assumed to be a very three-dimensional affair, calling into question many of the advantages of surrounding a strategic location with earthworks and static fortifications.

** Which may still count as bad HollywoodTactics, since trench warfare wasn't that effective even when it was invented.

* The news clip in the film's opening, touting the Mobile Infantry's newest secret weapon: [[MundaneMadeAwesome The Shovel!]] The Terran Federation has finally progressed to Trench Warfare in their [[HollywoodTactics tactics playbook.]]
* Followed by one trooper being [[ImpaledWithExtremePrejudice impaled]] [[HoistByHisOwnPetard by a shovel]] when a [[ActionBomb Bug Bomb]] goes off.
* And then, Colonel Rico shows up, while the medics are collecting the various dismembered body parts from the explosion. He turns to one of the surviving troopers, motions to a nearby severed arm, and gives us this line:
-->Hey trooper! [[JustForPun Give us a hand!]]
* Rico's new squad have to strip naked as part of the preparation for being paired with their PoweredArmor. [[FanService For some reason.]] One of the guys is a bit shy, and strips last. Cue the female trooper next to him coyly EatingTheEyeCandy and remarking "Now we know why his momma calls him 'Slug'."
