Maybe, Maybe. But I have yet to find one who can outsmart Morgan Freeman.

Well, when Harrison Ford is in something, it can't go wrong!

They better not screw this up.
Also I don't think they can do any of the sequels.

And yes I will be seeing this

Probably sparked from the overpopulation debate, which is a thing in Ender's game

It's because the author, Orson Scott Card, is one of the most ridiculously homophobic, bigoted, super-religious, generally bad people in the world. He actively campaigns against equal rights, to the extent that a recent Penny Arcade Report was about an ethical conundrum: stealing his books is wrong, but so is giving him money. He's been quoted as saying that homosexuals don't deserve to remain "free and equal" members of our society. He writes amazing science fiction, but on a personal level he's a genuinely terrible person.

Mazer Rackham has Maori tattoos all over his face. That's all I can say.

(Kzinti script, as best as can be displayed in Human characters, translated roughly as "For the Patriarchy!")

I do agree that the author is a SOB, but yes, he writes well.

He might be an ***hole, but his writing deserves a good movie to go with it.
