Re: Reaction to Enders Game
Don't get me wrong Enders Game is a good book. However, I feel it is very overrated. It was incredibly predictable and repetitive. I do think it would be a good book to have middle schoolers read, I know I would have appreciated it more at that age. read SPEAKER FOR THE DEAD and then tell me afterw...

No duhr. When I first read Ender, I was in 6th Grade. I was always the smartest kid in the class, and *couch* don't mean anything, but I was pretty popular and nice. The people respected my views, I guess. However, even when I tried showing Ender's Game to some friends, they took one look at the co...

I always pictured them something like actors I've seen before. Adult Ender I always pictured as Christian Bale with a beard and longish hair. Young Valentine to me would look like Clea DuVall and Peter would be Hayden Christiensen, circa Life As A House. Novinha I pictured as Paz Vega. Adult Valent...

I think Beans love life was way more interesting the Enders. Ender and Novinha were kinda boring. Bean and Petra had some life to them. Anyone else agree? okay yes thank you!!! I've been trying to make this point on other message forums. I don't think there was any love really. Just a common goal, ...

I'm not referring to Bean's genetics or any other biological/genetic component when I say he doesn't come across as human enough to me; I am referring to his personality. It's been years since I picked up the Shadow series but he came across as robotic; an intelligent but overly logical robot/ass w...

When you think Novinha is crazy and you ponder better companionship choices for Ender. :oops: Novinha is crazy. But I sort of resent people thinking that makes her undeserving of Ender. Why do you suppose that from any amount of women that Ender was in contact with he decided to marry Novinha? why ...

No, I don't think that he could have done the things that he did if not for them. As we see in Xenocide, he's internalized Peter and Val to such an extent that they represent the two extremes of his personality in his own mind. Ender feels guilt and empathy when he hurts people because he knows tha...

I cant imagine any child actor alive that would be exceptional at portraying Ender? Where are they going to find loads of child actors under the age of 10 that can behave as child prodigies would behave? A majority of the characters played in movies nowadays seem so one-sided, throw in some multi-di...

I liked Virlomi . In Shadow Puppets , the way she causes an uprising in India on the basis of stone walls was truly masterful! Secondly, Alessandra was interesting, however short-lived her character role was in Ender in Exile . Petra in Shadow of the Hegemon she behaved so quick-witted. Later in Sha...
