starship troopers stopmotion test?
"Den of Geek" have a list of there "25 great stop-motion moments in live-action films",http://www.denofgeek.com/movies/23707/25-great-stop-motion-moments-... right down at the bottom is an impressive "Starship Troopers" bug test footage piece. I'm not sure if it is actually stopmotion, I hope it is.
I was going to post the video here but I can't work out how to do that, so here's a link
