    Very few good books translate successfully to a good movie adaptation and most people who both read Ender’s Game by Orson Scott Card and watched the subsequent movie adaptation count Ender’s Game among the many rather than the few book to film adaptations. Almost every character changedt from the book to the movie in regards to either personality‚ physical appearance‚ or their given amount of screen time. The plot changed through added romances and the removal of concepts that failed to translate

    The comparison and contrasting of the book and movie of Ender’s Game are slight but still there. There are quite a few ways that the book and the movie are different.

However‚ in the movie he starts at age 13 and does everything within a shorter amount of time. Second‚ in the book of Ender’s Game the aliens that they were fighting were

    comments that the game of baseball is boring and moves too slowly. Certain people in this world‚ including myself obviously‚ see baseball as the greatest game of strategy that has ever been created. Baseball is a mental game.

    "The Most Dangerous Game" by Richard Connell is not as dangerous as "The Veldt" by Ray Bradbury.

Throughout the story of Ender’s Game Ender is constantly

Later this is seen on page 70. This describes the dense jungle in many different ways
