Or you get the people that claim to be the biggest fan ever! who don't remember any details that were in the book. And want previous adaptions to change to fit the movie. I will be absolutely pissed if the graphic novels change just so all versions of Ender have dark hair.

This VM brought to you by people not realizing that Novinha is Brazilian. And the official movie Twitter spelling "Theresa" wrong. And there's one more thing I have to check before saying anything but I have more faith in what I think.

I HAVE SOME...I mean, I have some free time now.

Yup, that was a trailer! I had to lol at the massive spoiler at the end.

Trailer was about what I expected: very Hollywood and lots of blue/orange, which is the color of Science Fiction now. (I miss when Science Fiction was black and green...)

I never put much stock in trailers, because they lie like nobody's business. They generally make bad movies look better and good movies look worse, so I'm hoping the movie itself is more character-driven and less stock-scifi-hollywood than the trailer. If the script and content is substantial and smart enough, the apparent understatedness/stoicism of the performances could be a strength rather than a liability. If they're trying to make an action-y thriller on the other hand...it looks like a very same-y movie.

I think the movie will really come down to what they showed almost none of in the trailer: how Ender interacts with his fellow battle-schoolers. And of course, how Bean is portrayed.

So no, the trailer didn't get me too excited; but then again almost no trailer's actually gotten me excited since I was 12 years old. :P (I don't know, they just never do anything for me; maybe because they're all so similar.) Still excited for the movie, though. Hope it's smart, fun, or both!

And while I'm rambling, my semester will be done in a week; and after that I hope to spend more time writing and reading here cause I miss it. :(

AAAAAAAHHHH, ANON. GOOD LUCK ON YOUR FINALS BUT YOU SERIOUSLY NEED TO TAKE TWO MINUTES OF YOUR TIME AND WATCH THIS LIKE RIGHT NOW.

I couldn't sleep the night before and then I watched it and nearly exploded and then I went out and bought two more copies of the book.

help me what is my life

Go pass your finals and be awesome and then return to some semblance of a normal life for a few months?

NO TIME RESPONDING QUICKLY AAAAH

I loved how Asa smirked a little as the camera was fading out after he said "The enemy's gate is down." Can't wait for the full trailer; battle room looks cool, and the two stars sound good too. Harrison Ford rocks.

BACK TO WORK FINALS APPROACHING

Anon! Watch this and tell me what you think!

I HAVE FIVE MINUTES

I did not know the Ender's Game movie poster was out; the battle room looks pretty cool. Also, apparently it's getting released THIS YEAR?! Whoa.

Hi, Anon! Is your spring break over already and you only have a few short minutes to take a break? I'm glad you were able to join us for the CYOA fic!

Did you know that the Ender's Game movie poster has been released?

Do it! Give in to your evil side.

Ach, I wish. It's spring break now, but it doesn't look like I'll be able to finish chapter 6 before it's over, much less review anything. This has kind of been the semester from hell.

P.S. would it be a dick move for me to slap a "The End" on my Digimon fic at the end of the most recent chapter? :P

Hi, nonny. Real life letting you free to enjoy the forums again?
