Ender's Game
 
They didn't fuck it up. Go see it.

It's quite possibly my favorite sci fi book ever. Along with Dune...I don't know how they couldn't fuck it up lol.

The name sounds familiar but tbh I'm not sure I've ever heard of it. Saw the preview when I went to see Bad Grandpa the other night and it looked amazing. Good to hear there is some positive coming out of it.

How was Bad grampa? we were gonna see that tomorrow

I got a good kick out of it but I'm not exactly a paragon of high minded humor.

The kid in the movie deserves lots of cred for pulling it off the way he did. Cool as a cucumber.

I just recently finished rereading 12 or so books in the series. I wonder if they will make movies for the other books since the storyline changes drastically.

Have you even read the book sir? I just got home from seeing it and what a complete waste of time. Movie had their names, kids in space and pretty colors. That was about as far as they followed the books. One of the worst film adaptations I've seen.

Would you recommend watching it before reading the books? I'm just curious to know if it's worth investing any time in it at all.

Thanks!

My wife enjoyed it. She has never read the books. If you want to see it def do it before the books...movie wont ruin any of it for you lol.

Don't buy anything that puts money into Cards hands, dude uses it for bigoted evil things. He probably rapes small children.
