I disagree with your opinion on the Starship Troopers movie. Verhoeven had good reasons for changes that were made. Like growing up in a country that was under fascist occupation.

A book and a movie can be so radically different that they are practically unrecognizable, yet both can have merit. Stanley Kubrick's The Shining, for instance, which wildly deviates from the book.
