With different abilities granted to each Commander, the Armies try to either capture each of its opponent's Gates or freeze the opposing Commander while avoiding other frozen players and Stars. In July 2008, Card stated that he would like to see Nathan Gamble play Ender, and expressed regret that he was "probably too old" for the part. Early in the film's development, in an interview in 1998, Card considered changing Hyrum Graff to a female character, recommending a "dry comic" such as Janeane Garofalo or Rosie O'Donnell for the role. In the same interview, Card suggested Andre Braugher or Will Smith for the role of Mazer Rackham.
Brendan Meyer was originally cast in the role of Stilson, but had to leave the production due to a scheduling conflict. The film was released in Germany on October 24, 2013, followed by a release in the UK one day later. It was released in the United States, Canada, and several other countries on November 1, 2013, and was released in other territories by January 2014.
Development
According to the novel canon, the Formics attacked Earth 50 years before the novel begins. They attempted to colonise the planet and were barely fought off by a New Zealand soldier known as Mazer Rackham. Comic books in the Ender Universe are currently being published by Marvel Comics.
After some preliminary battles in the simulator, he is introduced to Mazer Rackham, a hero from the Formic war who saw key patterns in the Formic behavior. Ender participates in space combat simulations created and controlled by Mazer. As the skirmishes become harder, he is joined by some of his friends from the Battle School as sub-commanders. Despite this, Ender becomes depressed by the battles, his isolation, and by the way Mazer treats him.

Ender's Game received mixed reviews from critics and was a box-office bomb, grossing only $125.5 million on a $110–115 million budget. Later books used 'Formic' almost exclusively, as the more 'scientific' term. The feature film adaptation of Ender's Game uses "Formics" exclusively. The film Ender's Game was released in the UK on October 25, 2013, and in the USA on November 1, 2013. The first script was based on two installments of the Ender series, Ender's Game and Ender's Shadow, when optioned by Warner Brothers, but was adapted to focus exclusively on Ender's Game when purchased by Lionsgate.
Historian Bruce Catton's work on the American Civil War also influenced Card. Ender's Game is kinda like The Hunger Games set in outer space, only more aggressive, more fantastic, and more original. EG has its fair share of special-effects-laden spectacle, with massive swarms of spaceships and incredible planetscapes filling up the screen.
Ender
It has become suggested reading for many military organizations, including the United States Marine Corps. Ender's Game was recognized as "best novel" by the 1985 Nebula Award and the 1986 Hugo Award in the genres of science fiction and fantasy. Its four sequels—Speaker for the Dead , Xenocide , Children of the Mind , and Ender in Exile —follow Ender's subsequent travels to many different worlds in the galaxy. In addition, the later novella A War of Gifts and novel Ender's Shadow , plus other novels in the Shadow saga, take place during the same time period as the original.
Graff takes Ender to humanity's forward base on a former Formic planet near their homeworld to meet with an elder Rackham. Rackham explains that the Formics share a hive-mind mentality and how he exploited it to win the battle. Ender's training is rigorous, and Anderson expresses concern over this, but Graff notes they have run out of time to replace Ender. In his 1991 introduction to the novel, Card discussed the influence of Isaac Asimov's Foundation series on the novelette and novel.
Lists with This Book
In September 2010, it was announced that Gavin Hood was attached to the project, serving as both screenwriter and director. Card said he had written "about six" different scripts before Hood took over. In November 2010, Card stated that the film's storyline would be a fusion of Ender's Game and its parallel novel, Ender's Shadow, focusing on the important elements of both. In October 2013, he explained that this "buddy-movie approach" between Ender and Bean was a proof of concept and once Hood took over he decided to use Petra as more of a major character.
The twist that happened in the end was expected, but I still enjoyed it nonetheless. The reasons for it didn't make much sense to me, but I accepted it anyway. Questions were answered and I'm pretty sure there could be more developed there. Enders is incredibly intense, this sequel took everything I loved about Starters and expanded upon it. I loved watching Callie try to defeat the infamous Old Man and get rid of the chip inside her head. Personally I think the Old Man is even creepier in this book, I didn't even think this was possible.
In fact, I hopethis is a duet and another book isn't in the works because I think this ending was rather perfect, all things considered. It was because of REASONS that I figured out the major plot twist in this book, but knowing didn't impede my enjoyment one iota. I rather liked sitting back and watching as things unraveled, watching Callie do the things that I knew she'd be able to do, even though she doubted it herself. Even more interesting was watching friends become foes and vice versa. As they say, the plot thickens substantially as the story unfolds, and I know it's cliché, but I really was on the edge of my seat there at the end.
The events of Ender's Game, Ender's Shadow and A War of Gifts take place in roughly the same time period. A sequel novella to Shadow of the Giant named Shadows in Flight further introduces three of Bean's children who also have Anton's key turned.

Do I need to read starters first to understand Enders? Because someone gave me this book and I just found out it's a sequel. A website called Battle School Command Core opened on September 19, 2013. The website was for those residing in the United Kingdom. The site had six games with a prize for each, including a grand prize trip for two people to NASA.
