I don't think it was baseless Roland00 Send a noteboard - 05/11/2013 03:58:02 AM

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

Not really? It's about the same, but with more non-violent bits. beetnemesis - 05/11/2013 03:26:46 PM 1026 Views

Card purposefully wrote Ender to be blameless, he didn't have intent to commit violence yet he still Roland00 - 05/11/2013 04:18:27 AM 1010 Views
You're still missing the point. DREWRULESWOT! - 05/11/2013 07:54:31 PM 1039 Views

The funny thing is, Ender's Game ISN'T a YA novel DREWRULESWOT! - 04/11/2013 08:20:46 PM 994 Views
The best YA novels are ones that have deeper levels beetnemesis - 04/11/2013 08:56:38 PM 988 Views
I was shocked when I found out it was shelved in YA. *NM* Jasha - 29/11/2013 06:34:01 PM 509 Views
My problem with the film was that the character's most hyped trait was irrelevant Cannoli - 05/11/2013 02:15:09 AM 1069 Views
I think it was a short story that was later expanded to a novel *NM* beetnemesis - 05/11/2013 02:33:46 AM 424 Views
OK, I've seen the movie now. I can see some of your issues. Honestly, just go read the book. beetnemesis - 05/11/2013 02:30:57 AM 1029 Views
