Differences Between Ender's Game Movie And Book

At this point, Ender starts seeing another side to things. Even though Ender realizes and admits to himself that he is being manipulated and tricked, he still continues onward.

He becomes so reckless he doesn’t even realize he’s hurting someone until after they are on the floor, “It took Ender by surprise he hadn’t thought to put Stilson on the ground with one kick” (7). What Ender doesn’t realize is that he doesn’t even comprehend what's going around him until he see’s the damage. Just like Peter, Ender never leaves anyone without any pain when they are angered. Filled with hatred towards Ender, Peter never leaves a chance to physically hurt Ender, he hurts him so much that Ender repeats the same anger and ruthlessness towards others.Funny thing is that even Ender knows that he has Peter in him and that in reality, he’s not really the innocent kid his sister and family thinks he

“Hey third, we’re talkin to you, Third, hey bugger lover, we’re talkin to you.” (Card. 6). In the beginning Stilson (a bully) comes up to Ender with a group of guys. They surround him and start to bully him. At first Ender takes it, then Stilson swings at him, and we see Ender break out of his shell. Ender not only beats him, but we find out he killed him. This is where we see Ender realize what he is capable of. After the fight, we see Ender go back to his quiet self. “Again a blow to the head. Go away Ender thought.I didn’t do anything to you.” (Card. 32). Another group of boys start

What could be better than a six year old boy killing two people, going to battle school, becoming a commander and killing an entire species? And he did all that by the time he was 13 years old. There’s a little bit of a difference between the book Enders game and the movie Ender Game. In the book Ender Wiggins was 6 years old and by the end he was 13 but in the movie he stayed 16 the whole time.

A huge part of the theme of Ender's Game is saying that life is just a game. This is proved by the concept that Ender has to succeed through different 'levels' of life in order to achieve what the battle school has set out for him-killing the buggers. This is proved by the quote,”-Because most boys in this school think the game is important for itself, but it isn't. Its only important, because it helps them find kids who might grow up to be real commanders.” This is the real point of the book in which Ender fully realizes that The Battle School is really just a game. The symbols of this main idea is the armies, friends, enemies, and leaders that Ender comes in contact with in the Battle School. All of the friends, enemies, armies, and leaders that Ender meet are all part of Ender

Ender did not have a good childhood. At the age of six he was changed from a little boy into a soldier in a six year old’s body. He was worked to the breaking point and even had a mental breakdown. Ender was take by th I.F. so that he could be trained to save the world, but he didn’t know that this involved, blocking all forms of contact with his family and being pushed to be perfect at everything until he had a mental break down. Somehow he managed to win the war, but as a result he became a young man with no friends and no life. Ender’s Game, by Orson Scott Card, demonstrates the effects of taking away children's rights by working them too hard, forcing them to solve every problem themselves, and are forced into armed combat against each other.

People would provoke Ender and he responded with violence and then would realize that he is doing the same thing his brother would normally do to him. After Ender got his monitor removed, Stilson and his gang were picking on him but this time he stood up for himself using violence and ended up killing Stilson. He cried until the bus came, noticing himself changing due to the removal of the monitor. This was the beginning of the International Fleet manipulating Ender, they deliberately removed the monitor to see how Ender would react without it, would he be ruthless like his older brother or compassionate like his sister, Valentine. There are other incidents that has happened with Ender involved which could have been stopped, but they let it happen. The others were collateral damage to make Ender like this and it made him feel bad about himself which affected him even

In this novel, Ender goes through a four-part narrative process which are exposition, rising action, climax, and resolution. The exposition explains the world around him, the rising action shows the start of a conflict, the climax shows how the climax develops and shows its worst, and the resolution solves the conflict introduced. Ender develops through this novel from the exposition to the resolution about his potential for

These people wanted to manipulate Ender’s natural character by taking him from those he loves, Forcing him to depend only on himself and not need assistance from anyone. While this learned self-reliance looks good for the I.F, Ender will break after being detached from everyone he grew close to during this book. My point is the fact that it changes the way a person behaves, this passage explains how after they completed what they wanted to do (isolate him)he became depressed. I feel that a message the author was trying to send was that no compassion for the way someone else is feeling leads to ruthlessness. The people that were talking about Ender did not care for the fact that they were making a six year old depressed, this ruthlessness changed a shy boy into a sad, lonely

Ender has been made an easy target because he is an outcast. His character is a smart boy who is constantly being bullied for something that can't be controlled by him. “No, no, I don't want your help. I can do it on my own, you little bastard, you little third” (Card 2). Ender is described from his brother Peter not important. That Ender is just a third kid and nothing else is important. Peter calls Ender a bastard only because Ender is smarter than Peter and Peter wants to be the smart perfect child.

Ender is at school and life is normal until he gets his monitor taken out. After it is taken out, he is bullied by the class and he begins to think that he is a failure. He gets into a fight, where his strategic fighting abilities and sheer brutality gets him noticed. He ended up killing the boy he was fighting, though he is not aware of it. This part of the book is Ender’s call to adventure.

Sopheya Tarbell Nov. 9, 2017 Per. 4 Ender's Game Ender and Peter, although they are brothers, are they the same? Does Ender thinks he’s like him? Since before and after Ender left for battle school, we got to see what Ender and his siblings were like.

On the other hand, in the film Ender remains a young teenager the whole movie. This could be most likely due to the fact that the creators of the film didn’t want to have to cast three different aged actors that looked very similar enough to be the same person. Also, this change made Ender’s time at the Battle School seem like it took weeks rather than years which would help move along the flow of the movie and make it so the plot didn't seem to drag on as we watched a six year old develop into a young adult. Even though this change might have positively affected to overall flow of the storyline in the movie it feels like an uneven tradeoff when considering we lose the greater insight to the development of Ender over the years he spends at Battle School. For example, in the movie Ender has a very big problem with authority figures but he is a young teenager and that is socially expected of him to act out towards adults. In the book when Ender talks back to the adults it is as a six to eight year old which is a much more powerful image with a much more antithetical meaning. An eight year old Ender would feel as if he was the underclass and this would explain his subversive tendencies towards the adults who were in charge at the Battle School. Since Ender is older in the movie the back talk and anti-superior mindset he establishes has much less shock value when watching it on screen. On screen Ender’s

In the book Ender’s Game by Orson Scott Card, it starts with ender in school and being made fun of. After he beats up a bully, he goes home to deal with his brother Peter who also bullies him because Ender is a better specimen than Peter was. But what no one expected was that a representative from the military came to invite Ender to Battle School up in space. Ender accepted and went to live up in Battle School for years to come. At first, Ender was hated for being such a talented student at the age of six but was soon respected after he was able to beat all the other armies with just a bunch of little kids. Ender became the best soldier at Battle School and was moved up to Command School where he would learn to command
