Stifled Dreams:
I used to like Ender's Game, and I zipped through the whole series. I'm really afraid that if I reread them, I won't like them as much, though - that's happened with far too many books. I read them a few years ago, and my taste has changed significantly. Does this happen to anybody else?

mberan42, The Ender's Game movie has been announced and is planned for 2008. I'm glad they didn't hire the brat from episode 1 to do Ender, he's much to old now anyways. Wolfgang Petersen will be directing (Troy, Airforce One, etc) apperantly the movie will cut out a lot of the Valentine/Peter story and focus more on the paralell stories of Ender and Bean.

Yeah, I heard OSC was cutting out a lot of the Valentine/Peter (Demosthenese / Locke) story line. Should be interesting.
Maybe I should pick up Ender's Shadow, refamiliarize myself with Bean.

Heh, there's no way an ender movie can work. Too much stuff going on, but more importantly, too long a time-span. The book spans age 5-12 or so, eh? I think the feel will change a LOT if ender is just ambiguously 10ish throughout.
Also, there's not an popsicle's chance in hell that they'll make bean small enough. Or, or...
It won't work. What's new?
nescience:
Plus, very difficult to get so much of Bean's inner monologue into a feature-length movie. The dude thinks a mile a minute.
