2. What does Lt. Rasczak do when he's not in the military?

Answer: He teaches.

At the beginning of the movie, you see Mr Rasczak teaching a class which Rico, Carmen and Dizzy are in. He has one arm and taps Carmen with it. He is also Rico's lieutenant later on.

3. What does Zim do to Ace when he puts his hand up on the wall?

Answer: Throws a knife at it.

When the cadets are throwing knives a target board and Ace can't get it, he asks career Sergeant Zim why he has to learn to do it anyway. Zim tells him to put his hand on the wall and he throws a knife in it.

5. When Rico runs into Carl, after the escape from Planet P, what rank is Carl?

Answer: Colonel

Because of his psychic abilities, Carl doesn't get Starside R&D(the research and development section) but instead get Games and Theory where he is a scientist. Later he becomes a Colonel and promotes Rico to Lieutenant.

6. Who captures the brain bug on Planet P?

Answer: Zim

Early in the movie the Major tells Sgt Zim the only way he will see combat is if he busts himself down to Private. He does and captures the brainbug, having to call Lt Rico "Sir" which is ironic because Rico started off his career referring to Zim as sir and having to do everything he was told by Zim.

7. What does Rico use to kill the Tanker bug?

Answer: Grenade

Rico jumps on its back, shoots a hole in it and drops a grenade into it. He jumps off and the bug explodes and Rico gets promoted to Corporal.

8. Which of these four does not get the friend tattoo?

Answer: Carmen

Kitten, Ace, Dizzy and Rico all get skull tattoos but Carmen doesn't. She was there when they got it, just before Rico's fight with Zander.

9. What is the title of the leader of the entire Federation?

Answer: Sky Marshal

Sky Marshal Dienes launched an offensive attack on Klendathu but suffers many casualties so he resigns and lets Sky Marshal Tahat Meru take over. During the Klendathu attack Katrina, Shujumi, Kitten and Lt. Willy all get killed.

10. Who wrote the book that the movie is based on, albeit loosely?

Answer: Robert A Heinlein

There are many differences between the movie and the book, such as Rico's first name. There were also two sequels which were not based on the book and were original screenplays.
