Now let me get something out of the way. I have NOT seen the movie, and from what I've heard, I really have no big desire to. Tomorrow will be a bitchfest about the golden compass and the problems with that book/movie. But that is for tomorrow. But, Ender's game.
I just finished the book last night and it was WEIRD. But weird in a good way, since I absolutely loved it in all it's strangeness.
It's one of those dark side of the classic ______ story, and felt a bit like a sci-fi version of All Quiet on the Western Front. Either way, just very weird. It's not very adaptable, in my eyes, since it's so out there and so bizarre. Take it for what it is, I just don't think the movie can be very successful unless Cecil B. DeMille and Stanley Kubrick can rise out of their graves and make some sense of what seems to be a terrible script.
