Just saw it

This trailer has been cut down to the most basic foundations of any science fiction property. Nothing that made the novel stand out seems to have made it into this brief glimpse. While that shouldn't bother me as it is only just a trailer for American audiences, I am worried that this will be just another film. I am impressed with the cast they've assembled. Concerning the cast, however, I must say that...

I think "cautiously exited" is a nice way to put it. Regarding book details in the trailer, I hope they stick to this approach and don't give too much away before the movie's out. Part of the magic of the story, as I recall (it's been 13 years), is that you're learning about the story as Ender learns about it. I find it saddening when trailers give away too much plot.
