While browsing the internet for any Enders Game news i thought why not lets see if theres an official website being built so i tried

www.endersgamethemovie.com

As soon as i hit enter BAM password required, im wondering - if this is an official website why is it being hidden? is it not finished? I Call upon the allmighty powers of the Bloggers to crack that site and reveal all of its secrets!!

Well, it seems like the username/password combination is NOT 'Poke/Carlotta'. That's depressing.

Reveal all of its secrets? You're right. Allow me to explain what you find on that website regarding the secrets of the movie.

The first big secret is that Ender will by played by McCauly Caulkin.

And instead of going to "Battle School", we'll instead go to "Patriot School." We thought that would be more patriotic, and it really is my belief that we need that sort of thing nowadays in these troubling times.

Next, Ender actually encounters Stilson in the cafeteria instead of the sidewalk, to make it a bit more open to showing how life would have been for Ender. Also, when they encounter, they both have slingshots. Stilson shoots first.

We really want to have Bean live in Amsterdam instead of Rottingham, to show the audience that this is the future, and that Amsterdam changes a lot due to the united world working together. Bean also starts off as a crack addict. We thought we try to inspire people to overcome adversity.

We are currently in talks with Blizzard to use WoW as the mind game. Obviously, back when Enders Game was written, most games were pixels, so we are adapting with technology.

The "Patriot School" itself, well, that was a bit of a challenge with our budget. We unfortunately may have to comprimise and turn battleschool more into a ball than what was described in the book. Also, we are planning on showing a flashback to the second invasion of a newly built battleschool shooting a pretty cool green beam at their mother ship, so people know that we adapted to what we had.

Now, before I say the next thing I need you to know that we have gotten a lot of concerned letters from parental fans and from the MPAA. One of the issues is Petra and the other girls at battleschool. They don't want kids to get the impression its ok to live so close to each other with the other gender. Similarily, we are going with individual showers, which means the Bonzo scene is being worked on. We don't want to promote or dispromote homosexuality.

The buggers themselves... well, thats another story. They will still go with the hive mind, but Wolfgang Peterson is actually a giant trekkie fan, it turns out, and is wanting to have them be more humanoid. We're arguing that one with him, though. Maybe body of a humanoid, face of an ant. Who knows.

And this is a new announcement, we are getting John Williams to compose the music. Yep, go ahead and go to other forums and let them know. In fact, if you know John, you should call him and let him know, too.

And Will Smith has denied the offer of being Mazer Rackham, so we are currently looking. If you happen to be about 5'10, 150 pounds, female, redhair and good complexion, I have a friend you should talk to, and he'll schedule an audition for you.

Seriously, why? The script isn't finished yet, and we know the plot.

(post note, I say this only with love caring and a noogie)

It probably stems from you being locked out of the classroom during grammar sessions. [Razz]

oh snap! But careful, accurate expression stands up well to noisy transmission, distraction, and removal from context in a way in which sloppy expression does not. Sloppy speech on the other hand requires the listener to know more context to extract the meaning. Or get back on topics and anti chris just thought id say "YOURE SO PUNK" not a scencter at ALL [Razz]
