I'm glad the battle room scenes look promising. It was one of those things I was fearful wouldn't adapt well to the big screen, and being such a crucial element to the story it could ruin the adaptation if done wrong. I even like the glimpse of Ender (supposedly) using the hook/tether, which is true to the books. Looks good so far! Child actors, in my opinion, have a consistent track record of ruining movies, so I really hope these kids can hold up, and they do look good from the little I've seen so far. Ford is exactly how I pictured Col. Graff. Same with Rackham. But movies that rely on children casts always make me nervous, as Ender has to pull off some serious fucking acting to make this movie. This kid gets pushed to the brink, so I hope what's his name can pull it off. Good year to be me. Two of my three favorite books are movies this summer! Great Gatsby and Ender's Game... now if someone can just make a Sirens of Titan movie I'll be forever in debt.
