In this discussion we end up pondering the questions - Is it possible to use the same storyline from book to movie but miss the point completely? AND did the makers of this movie even read the book? Join us as we discuss a surprise favorite book and lament the tragedy that is its adaptation.

Our Drinking Game for this Story 

Take a drink:

Whenever somebody insults Ender

Whenever Ender has a battle

In the book, take a sip every time you realize that this book was written in the 80s and you marvel at how Card guessed we would use the internets for social media

Take a drink whenever you think Ender may have killed someone

Knock it back when that kill is confirmed. 

Take a shot whenever a relationship with Ender is undercut in the movie
