Yea evil but that was the part I was talking about but if you go back and read I think he does that. Ender wasn't freaky and neither was Peter. . .what's wrong w/ world domination and kicking people in the balls?

I voted no. I read the book freshman year and it left me thinking. The science fiction theme is only there to accomodate the message it's trying to send.

As for the movie, it's probably gonna be a pure science fiction movie, and not one like the book. The message the book is trying to stress is the manipulation that the teachers used to change the kids, to literally use them. Card's other books, like the ones mentioned, like Xenocide and Speaker of (for?) the Dead, all take place in a science-fiction setting, but only because it fits the way he's trying to write the book. I think making a movie is a bad idea, becuase it's very likely the movie will lose the conveyed message in the book and just turn it into any other sci-fi film. Dunno, it'd be better to criticize than anticipate, IMO.

ns33 you have some twisted views on the movie... you seem to be screaming the pinkfloyd meaning heh.

no i am not telling you guys what I think the book is about because the only way to be fore sure is to ask the writer and none of us know him. So bonzai...
