I watched Ender’s Game and loved it. Then I read the book and loved it so much that I started hating the movie. Seriously, for all its merits, I don’t think the adaptation captured the depth and essence of Orson Card’s story.
Though, if I’m being honest, I don’t really blame the director. Ender’s Game is complicated. I don’t think Card’s ideas were meant for the big screen, and that isn’t a bad thing.
You don’t have to turn every award-winning science fiction novel into a big-budget movie. Sometimes, it is better to leave stories like Ender’s Game on the pages of a book.
The first book in any Orson Scott Card series is fantastic. Some are my very favorite books. The longer series get too preachy or too technical for my taste. Some people I have discussed this with love when he does that though.
