Re: Movie will be Ender's Game + Ender's Shadow?

Rumor has it that there will be SOMETHING of the mind game, but nothing involving Peter & Valentine taking over the world through teh Internets.

Re: Movie will be Ender's Game + Ender's Shadow?

Vitaly, This has actually been widely known by many. When you think of it, this turns out to be a really good way of "reading Ender's thoughts," through dialogue between him and Bean. And even though you may find, scattered around the Interwebs, the occasional fan who is still hoping that ...

Re: The trailer

Sparrow, To the best of my knowledge, Ender's Game is not being made in 3D. They could always, of course, post-convert the live footage to 3D, though compositing (as they did with G-Force and Wrath of the Titans), and re-compile the CG footage from two camera-angles. But for now, all I've heard is t...

There's no way of knowing, but based on Gavin Hood's earlier movies (Tsotsi, Rendition), and his acknowledging that HE was a "child soldier" at some point (probably back when he was a child, if I had to guess), I would imagine that the scenes are going to be brutal, and probably intentiona...
