You guys should read the wikipedia page on the movie, particularly the part regarding Card's rewrites for a script version. Without spoiling anything, the twist ending has been nerfed.
Which I was really upset about.
Until I thought about it more. And frankly, I think it's going to make for a much more interesting sequence emotionally the way it's been rewritten.
Yeah, the fact that the movie audience will know about the twist all along isn't going to bother me. I do think it will make for a more interesting film than if they had tried to make it a twist ending like the novel. Those of us that have read the novel would know anyway, so it's somewhat irrelevant anyway.
I'll go see this in theaters for sure, but I'm still not really sure they'll be able to pull it off.
