I just hope they don't make a hash of it like "Eragon" of a few years ago. |

Haven't heard anything lately, is it still in the works or has it been dropped again? |

Many movie and tv production companies purchase the rights to fictional properties and never produce them. I hope this isn't the fate of "Ender's Game". I'm not trying to pour cold water on anything. Erica Kirov, a local fantasy author, had her the production rights to her novel, "The Magickeepers" purchased by a large company. There is no movie in sight. We can all look forward to "The Hobbit".

Yes, I realize a lot of good books (and games, and graphic novels, etc.) get scooped up and held onto for far too long before they are produced, if at all. I guess The Hobbit will have to hold us for now! |

seriously they had better not jack this up! here is a question.. if they do well and it does well what are the chances they will do a squeal and if they do i wonder what of the books they will do? they could do the shadow series stuff i guess or they could do the stuff in ender in exile i guess.. has anyone else read the rest of the series? |

i've read the first several books. My favorite was with Valentine and Ender leaving Scandinavia for another world (along with Jane). The Piggies were fantastic! Some of my favorite quotes come from that book. I wonder how the subject would translate to a movie, though? Would the Piggies be interesting enough to sustain a movie audience? |

i dunno i don't think speaker for the dead, xenocide or children of the mind would be good movie wise.. however a few years ago card came out with a novel called ender in exile which is a direct sequel to enders game it shows what happens on his voyage to Shakespeare colony. The bean series could be an interesting series of movies. its so hard to say tho. and ofcouse they could always do a prequel showing the events of the first or 2nd invasion |

a prequel? Naw, that wouldn't include Ender, though, so it defeats the purpose. ![]() i wasn't that interested in the Bean offshoot series. i started reading, and never finished. Children of the Mind? dunno. It might be interesting to see the Pequeninos, the humans, and the Hive Queen all on one planet. what was the name of the one with the girl following the lines of the floorboards? That one was hard to take. The whole planet prized those who were 'touched' by the gods, but in our society, it was recognized as a terrible brain disorder. |

*shudders* yeah the floor board girl was def hard to follow. i think that may have been Xenocide.. Enders series went into some strange territory. I didn't read the bean books for a long time. It wasn't until recently within the last years i gave them a read. they really arnt bad but the main reason i read them was because card is putting out two more books that will reconnect bean and enders stories via their children. |

That could be interesting. Still dunno if I want to read the Bean series to catch up, lol. Did you know that there was a whole Formic Wars series, regarding the first wars with the Buggers? Wow, I have some catching up to do. But I think I'll start with First Meetings in Ender's Universe, which is short stories regarding Ender's father, and Ender too. Should be interesting. comic? video game? anyone know about these? |

'terribad'... i like it! terrible/bad ? Cool term. Here I am reading all the Elminster series (and a few others penned by Ed Greenwood too) and Orson Scott Card has several series for offshoots of Ender. Wow... I wish I had such a series of published books! |
