Anyone else excited for this?
Excited and scared...I loved the book but I'm worried this will be like Enders game.
My DH can not wait. He’s giddy like a kid every time a commercial or preview comes on.

lol I actually liked Ender's Game
The movie? Because, though I've seen many worse adaptations, that oe was pretty lame.
I don't think the pop references changed to be more relatable, rather they changed because they couldn't secure the rights to everything in the book. Thank God Spielberg directed this so they could get as many IP's included as they did LOL. I'm very excited.
I've already bought my IMAX 3D tickets for opening weekend! Loved the book, but understand that they changed things up a bit to make the geek / pop culture references more relatable to the average viewer. I don't think it's any spoilers, as based on all the trailers fans of the book can see a lot of the obvious changes.
Based on the reviews from the SxSW Film Festival premier ... fans of the book will be loving the movie and the adaptation seems to really capture the spirit. Even some folks who didn't like the book still enjoyed the movie.
For the folks who hated to book and 80s nostalgia ... we'll they'll probably find more to hate and pick apart with the movie.
