Heh...I agree about Starship Troopers. As I was saying there were changes from the books, but all we heard about after the movies was how different they were. Which obviously distracted from the story. The Ender's Game Movie has been in the works for years and is likely to remain that way forever. I'm just saying that it would be cool if they tried. I don't remember that much nudity in the books...I do remember them being issued "skin tight" uniforms...if you could call them that. My point is that it is the obvious venue to reintroduce old material as people these days are much more likely to see the movie than read the books. Which is sad. Ender's Game would be cool if not for the original story but for the rest of the series that would be much more presentable in major motion picture format.

I disagree with the Ender's Game comment I believe that the movie would reach a new generation. Which would reintroduce the Ender verse into the mainstream. I don't think that the movie would be nearly as good as the book, but not all stories can be carried over from the original text. Watchmen is one of the best adaptations from original work that I have ever seen. I mean look at the Bourne series, Lord of the Rings trilogy or even Starship Troopers. these movies are very different chronologically as well as in some cases changed completely.
