    I feel like your screen name is an opportunity to point out Harrison Ford saying that when “all of this is over” we can have the “luxury” of examining our actions…

    The whole point of Enders Game is to avoid ethics/morality…

      It’s wild to imagine the cognitive dissonance in orson Scott card’s mind. He saw some things so clearly and others not at all

      As someone who was advised against watching the movie, this comment confused the hell out of me. I didn’t even know Harrison Ford was in the movie.

      The character’s name in the book is Hyrum Graff.

        I read even the really weird books, and none of them were as bad as the movie. They make Petra into a love interest. They also really downplay how hard ender can be, so, you know, entirely removing the purpose of the story.
