Just wondering... how do you guys think the Ender's Game movie will show all the scenes in the book where the characters appear naked? I'm primarily thinking of the final fight between Bonzo and Ender, but since it's apparent Bean's going to have a a big role in the movie I'm also thinking of his escapades in the vents (though it's totally imaginable that that part wouldn't be included).

You think they might invent some kind of regulation IF briefs or Shower Shorts that the kids all wear?

They could just have them in underwear or swim trunks or something.

Or just use strategic shots and lots of steam.

I'm sure it's one of their very minor problems.

Yeah, I think the thematic element (one kid inadvertently killing another) would be harder to handle in a PG-13 way.

I really think they should show that scene from Bean's perspective, showing up after it's finished. It could work extremely well dramatically, and solves the problems already mentioned.

Good Call, Launchywiggin!

Plus, to understand what went down, all the gory details don't really need to be seen on screen...

Remember that scene in "The Incredibles" when Bob catches the champagne cork, then closes the Van door? Just thinking about the most awesome fight I never actually saw. I'm not saying they could necessarily do something similar. I still hate Bonso for slapping Petra. I started to read a story where the author hits his woman (He'd never done that before.) When she apologizes to him, I put the story down.
