Please? I'd do a really nice job.

*assumes OSC has a lot more pull with the production people than he probably does*

Posted by Noemon (Member # 1115) on :

I would almost pay you to change the title of this thread to OSC I CHALLANGE THEE!

Posted by Erik Slaine (Member # 5583) on :

I applaud you for having the guts to ask.

You go.

Posted by Annie (Member # 295) on :

Hey, Noem, if the price is right...

Posted by Anna (Member # 2582) on :

Mr Card, I know she will.
And she should do the covers for your books also.

Posted by zgator (Member # 3833) on :

She could make some Ender's Game pants to tie in with the movie.

I'd like to take a stab at the script. I've got some great ideas. [Big Grin]

Posted by Narnia (Member # 1071) on :

Ah, but Annie, what if you're on your mission when they start putting out teasers (like pre/mid production...) [Evil]

Yeah I know, fat chance that it'll get that close to ANY production by the time you're home from your mission with 4 children. [Wink]

Posted by Steev (Member # 6805) on :

But it never hurts to ask.

Hey Mr. Card, can I... errm... nevermind. I got nothing. [Embarrassed]

Posted by Yozhik (Member # 89) on :

I want to play a corpse in the Ender's Game movie. [Big Grin]

Posted by Steev (Member # 6805) on :

I want to be a wall.

Posted by Javert Hugo (Member # 3980) on :

I want to be Ender's mother. [Smile]

Posted by zgator (Member # 3833) on :

I was already a corpse in Ender's Game mafia thanks to celia.

Posted by Shigosei (Member # 3831) on :

I'd love to play a role that involves being filmed in zero-g. They'll probably have to use a lot of makeup to cover all the green, but it would be so much fun!

Posted by Jonathan Howard (Member # 6934) on :

I want to be Peter! I love his character.

Posted by Annie (Member # 295) on :

Ender pants! I'll totally make a pair of Ender pants. That would rock.

Maybe the Ender pants can be on the poster. That would be way avant-garde.

Posted by Kama (Member # 3022) on :

Can I be Petra? Or is someone else Petra already?

Posted by Jonathan Howard (Member # 6934) on :

Ender's chain mesh underwear!!!

Posted by Annie (Member # 295) on :

I wonder how much I'd have to pay for a product placement of Annie Pants in the movie. Maybe Graff could be sporting a pair in one scene.

Posted by Jonathan Howard (Member # 6934) on :

I'll pay for my... Never mind!

Posted by Trisha the Severe Hottie (Member # 6000) on :

[ROFL]

I don't know why I find chain mail so funny. Especially underwear.

Posted by Jonathan Howard (Member # 6934) on :

Because it was used as a joke previously.

Posted by Narnia (Member # 1071) on :

It's ALWAYS used as a joke! [Wink]

Annie, I think Graff would be hot in a pair of Annie pants. We'll raise the money for you to place that product!! [Big Grin]

Human or Bugger?

Posted by Jonathan Howard (Member # 6934) on :

Colonel Graff HOT in women's clothes?

And people tell me I'm a sick bastard...

Posted by Annie (Member # 295) on :

Hey - Annie Pants come in men's varieties.

Posted by Teshi (Member # 5024) on :

It would be cool, Annie, if the style of the humans at the time was for Annie Pants. [Big Grin]

Sure... *Hesitant leer.*

Posted by SteveRogers (Member # 7130) on :

i want to be Ender's bed........ooh pick me pick me........... [Razz]

Posted by sarcasticmuppet (Member # 5035) on :

O.o

I wanna be Ender's...umm...toothpick?

Posted by Teshi (Member # 5024) on :

I'd be happy just being random crew member #783

Posted by Desdemona (Member # 7100) on :

I'll be Valentine in the raft scene.

But aren't they cutting her out?

I'll still be her.

Posted by Teshi (Member # 5024) on :

How you cut Valentine and have the story have any sort of power?

Posted by SteveRogers (Member # 7130) on :

No.........wait..........I want to be Dink.......that is it...........I mean I am too old...........but that would be cool.........or Ender's bed........or one of the teachers........whatever.........uhh? [Wall Bash]

Posted by WheatPuppet (Member # 5142) on :

I want to be a one-line character! I want to be the guy who says that one line that everyone remembers, but can never attribute.

"Ender, you're such a N00b."

Posted by Teshi (Member # 5024) on :

WP you can be like Figwit from Fellowship of the Ring; onscreen in the background for three seconds, but a total phenomenon.

EDIT: Brainwave! We should find a way to slip "what does it do?" "Nothing; that's the beauty of it" into the screenplay.

Ender organises a decoy.

Petra: What does it do.
Bean (explaining Ender's idea): Nothing, that's the beauty of it.

I wanna be the Battle school librarian.

Posted by Jonathan Howard (Member # 6934) on :

I want EG and ES to be one film.

Posted by Choobak (Member # 7083) on :

I just want a cookie.

Posted by Anna (Member # 2582) on :

This site does not allow the word "cookie" in a URL, but I can give you some Brownies.

Posted by Choobak (Member # 7083) on :

miam miam !!!

Posted by Jonathan Howard (Member # 6934) on :

I want Custard Creams. Will anyone send me to either the UK or Ireland?

Posted by Noemon (Member # 1115) on :

Teshi and Shigosei both beat me to it by quite a bit! I love that idea.

Posted by MyrddinFyre (Member # 2576) on :

Oooo, I drew a picture of Valentine and Peter and Ender in high school. I would share if it were still hanging up in the art teacher's office >.<

I would love to see other people's interpretations, though I guess "fan art"'s more of a Philotic Web tendency.

Wouldn't it be the most perfect thing ever? The more I think about it, it's more of a Graff thing to say than an Ender thing, though.

Posted by Narnia (Member # 1071) on :

They could use it in the nylon cord scene when Bean gets it from Graff and shows it to Ender.

Ender: What does it do?

you know the rest. [Big Grin]

btw Jonathan, EG and ES are going to be one film. OSC combined the stories when he wrote the first draft of the script (that is now being revised.)

Posted by vwiggin (Member # 926) on :

Make the pants snug Annie. So Ender can say to Graff, "Yes sir captain tight pants."

Posted by Katarain (Member # 6659) on :

Ya know, I was just thinking... if they cut out the Peter and Valentine try to take over the world thing, then how would a sequel work? Let's say a sequel to the Ender's Shadow part of the movie... Peter's role is BIG in that.

Posted by Wendybird (Member # 84) on :

Teshi that would be perfect [ROFL]

Posted by Jonathan Howard (Member # 6934) on :

"Howard's Shadow", does that seem scary, spooky or worthy of OSC?

Posted by Boris (Member # 6935) on :

I want to be a star in the movie. [Big Grin]

Sounds more like the sequel to a really bad movie about a talking duck...
