I'm still hoping that there's a secret Achilles casting in there somewhere that they're wanting to keep secret... same with Carlotta. Probably not, though.

Was Brendan Meyer replaced? http://mobile.nola.com/advnola/db_/contentdetail.htm?contentguid=zvJpZvIf&full=true#display" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; Check out this press release: Excerpt: Other roles, as outlined in the press release, have been filled by Aramis Knight...

Interesting press release , with some... surprises. "Ender's Game" has finally begun. After weeks of pre-production and a steady trickle of casting announcements -- including names like Harrison Ford, Ben Kingsley, Asa Butterfield, Viola Davis and Abigail Breslin -- principal photography o...

Producer Roberto Orci: (@boborci) "And... ACTION! We started shooting Ender's Game this morning!"

Asa Butterfield: "First day of filming today! So excited

"

Extras Casting Director: Alexis R. Allen ‏ (@alexisrallen) "Day 1 of 70!"

Well, Asa just tweeted, "First day of filming today! So excited

" so, who knows what's going on

Sorry. Can't help myself. My 2-year-old and a bunny.

Finished Season 2 of Downton Abbey. Fun, fun stuff. (and have you seen these Downton Abbey Paper Dolls? *grin* )

Now catching up on Season 6 of Doctor Who...

I don't see Lusitania in SiF. OSC has said has considered writing another SiF-sized novel where 'about their development of their new world and the creation of a new Queenless formic species to populate it along with the new species of human. But then the three of them [Ender, Sergeant, Carlotta] wi...

Yes. See this thread. Welcome to PWEB!

See the script ... at least the title page

Note that the script is dated January 5, 2012 with revision pages noted for January 30 and February 8.

Is that a ‘Cast Members’ list I see on the left-hand side?

Anyone want to attempt to decipher?

*spraying an anthill* "Meet Dr. Device."

For a comparable one, see this one for Doctor Who fans (only those who have watched up to the end of Season 5 would get most of this):

My high risk dream: end the film with a setup for both Shadow Series, and the Speaker Trilogy. Commission 2 separate film series to be in production at the same time, one following the Shadow Series, one following Speaker for the Dead. There would be zero overlap need in actors until the end of Xeno...

I've since finished Shadows in Flight, which I won't discuss here because of the NEW factor. In short, I enjoyed it, and it not only sets up some exciting things, but possibly reframes some of the material in the Speaker Trilogy. And with that, I've re-read Speaker for the Dead, and am now in the mi...

From Andrea Powell (Theresa Wiggin): “Amazing #EndersGame read-thru yesterday (I read opposite Harrison Ford and somehow resisted the impulse to giggle like a schoolgirl). From Jimmy Pinchak (Peter): “Awesome day on set!” And from Alexis Allen, who has been in charge of Extras casting: “Welp, [we] …...

For those interested, the complete first season of Downton Abbey is streaming on Netflix, and all of Season 2 is streaming (free) from the PBS website.

I added a link to the EA Valentine's Day post. A note of seriousness to accompany some levity

Just started watching Downton Abbey over here. We're sucked in.

Oh, and speaking of BBC, just watched an episode of Vexed. Very, very funny.

"Ho, _______" The only teacher is the enemy. The Ender's Game movie is NEVER going to happen. Did you hear Jake Loyd is playing Ender? Did you hear that Sixth Sense kid is playing Ender? I hope the Ender's Game movie doesn't suck. I'm hanging with my jeesh tonight. Be the shoe. What? No, I...

Abigail Breslin (Valentine) is also now in NOLA:

"So excited to be in New Orleans! Let the games begin... "

According to their tweets, the actors playing Stilson and Peter will both be in NOLA soon, to join the rest of the cast and crew currently there.

Going through SftD, there's a boatload of internal contradictions that need to be reconciled first before we can hope to merge the 'new chronology' with the 'old chronology'. I added a separate sheet for noting the uncorrected internal dates/timeline as it stands in the Speaker Trilogy. I also added...

They're currently training at Space Camp there, as per their tweets.

Much like the cast of Apollo 13 also trained at a Space Camp in Alabama prior to their filming.

From Jimmy Pinchak's (Peter) Twitter feed last night:

"Wardrobe Fitting for Ender's Game!"

I started a new sheet where possible date adjustments are made: 1) new dates if all dates stated POST Starways Congress formed remain the same, but with Starways Congress formation given the start date at cir. 2625 CE, rather than the old 3381 CE. Thus, all the BSC dates would change, but the POST B...

Cassandra just confirmed her as Major Anderson over at EA. Bam! Zow!

The Official Ender Companion had a good discussion of this, how different screenplays ended.

One of the key options which seemed to most helpful was that Ender did find the cocoon ... hidden on Eros.

Thanks for your thoughts, and welcome, both of you! Head up into the Foyer, and introduce yourselves

The United States Marine Corp used to have Ender's Game on its official reading list. The list was recently revised (As it often is), and this time, Ender didn't make the cut.

But Starship Troopers did

Fun facts to know and tell.
