1) I don't think it was baseless. Card was connected to the movie he was a producer yet he didn't get paid for he was paid several years ago for the movie rights.
2) It isn't just Ender Game that Card talks about abuse, he has numerous other novels where the main characters are
Abused as Children
Raped as Young Adults
Pedophilla perputrated on Children
Kidnapped as a child, and moved to a foreign land
etc
So how is Ender’s Game a good story? (Book / Movie Spoilers)

Not really? It's about the same, but with more non-violent bits.

Card purposefully wrote Ender to be blameless, he didn't have intent to commit violence yet he still

The funny thing is, Ender's Game ISN'T a YA novel

My problem with the film was that the character's most hyped trait was irrelevant

I think it was a short story that was later expanded to a novel *NM*

OK, I've seen the movie now. I can see some of your issues. Honestly, just go read the book.
