I definitely understand where your coming from. I'm someone who can disconnect a movie from a book it's based on and can view them as two separate things. Not a lot of people can (or even want) to do that.

The movie certainly captured the spirit of the book, it's just not as deep and personal. It missed the mark on a couple of things but certainly was a "fun" science fiction movie to spend my Friday evening watching!

Still for you, yeah I'd probably hold off; it's like I wish I had never seen Eragon. Not that it ruined the book, in fact it made me appreciate the book more. But it was just a horrible waste of my time. lol

As for the other books, I really enjoyed them. They're different style and thematically, but it was great to see Ender try and fix what he's done.
