I suspect humans don't even have spaceships until AFTER the alien attack, probably aided by reverse-engineering alien ships. Changes the background history a lot, but may be more realistic given the current state of the human space programs.<br /><br />By the way, I just recently saw Tom Cruise's OBLIVION, I rather enjoyed it. They had great art design and SFX, and I didn't see the big plot twist coming too easily. And I love Tom Cruise's bubble-ship, it is like a cross between one of those observation planes and a space fighter, ha ha. Did you ever find the diagram of the blaster rifle from OBLIVION? Turns out it was a dressed up Bushmaster ACR, I thought it looked familiar when watching the film...Christopher Phoenixnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-726484495782035142.post-80070180787181724502013-07-24T13:22:22.667-05:002013-07-24T13:22:22.667-05:00Yeah...they really have altered some of the key hi...Yeah...they really have altered some of the key historical events in the ENDER'S GAME universe. Kind of a shame, and I thought of ID4 as well when I noticed the similarities. <br />This could be one of those cases, where the movie is better than the book...like BLADE RUNNER and MAJORITY REPORT. Here is hoping. The SFX and set design are amazing, and really capture the original text<br />Never resist the sexually abuse by alien jokes! Resistance is Futile!

In adapting Ender's Game to film, they seem to have changed the story and background quite a bit, perhaps enough to avoid some of the book's flaws. Who knows, maybe the movie will be pretty good!<br /><br />*Must. Resist. Urge. To make the "When they abducted him and took him up on their spaceship they abused him. Sexually." joke. Wait, abduction, anal probing, buggers, it is all falling into place now~ XDChristopher Phoenixnoreply@blogger.com
