Ender’s Game v.s Ender’s Game movie After I read Ender’s Game I watched the movie and I can’t say the movie was bad, but many things in the movie were not relevant at all to the book. The movie was way too short and they fast forwarded too many things. They also dumbed down the twists like when Ender destroys the Buggers when he thought it was a simulation game. It even ditched all the somewhat important things. They must have cut out over 2 hours of plot between every new scene.
In the book, Ender’s Game by Orson Scott Card, Ender got bullied by multiple kids. He ended up getting in many fights that resulted in the bullies being dead. Before I started reading, I had thought that bullies didn’t always deserve what they got. After reading, I still strongly agree with this statement.
John Kessel's essay Creating the Innocent Killer, is a character study of Ender Wiggin, from Orson Scott Card's Ender's Game. Kessel’s essay has an interesting view on Ender’s character traits, his motives, and even the world he’s living in. Kessel’s study describes Ender as being a guilty killer. While his view on Ender’s murdering may seem extreme to some, I believe that Ender is still guilty, regardless of his motives, since in the end, he still does kill off an entire race.
Evaluating Kessel’s Game Is there a such thing as an innocent killer? Can someone who destroys a planet and commits mass genocide be viewed as a hero? According to John kessel this is attempted in Ender’s Game a science fiction novel written by Orson scott card in 1985. In 2004 Kessel wrote an article titled “Creating the innocent killer Ender's game intention or morality”. In his analysis he comes to the conclusion that Card presents the protagonist, Ender, as a character who is abused, manipulated, sincere, and innocent.
In the classic novel Ender’s Game by Orson Scott Card, Andrew “Ender” Wiggin is a young man who lives in a futuristic world where hostile extraterrestrial beings known as “buggers” have attacked Earth twice, and they almost wiped out mankind in the Second Invasion. The International Fleet (I.F.) plans to attack the bugger world a third time to wipe them out for good, and they take Ender at the young age of 6 to a space station called Battle School to prepare him and other children to possibly graduate to Command School and fight the buggers. Throughout the novel, Card develops Ender’s character traits using influences from other characters, plot development, and Ender changing as he grows older. At the beginning of the story, Ender is 6 years old and wears a small device on his neck, monitoring his behavior to find out whether he is what they need to fight the buggers.
When another boy justifies the fate of Bonzo, Ender weeps. (3) “I didn’t want to hurt him!” he insists. “Why didn’t he just leave me alone!” (p. 233)
After concluding “Ender’s Game”, I feel as if one of the questions from the anticipation guide really stood out to me. The statement “Winning a fight is only honorable if it is a one on one fight” is a statement that is mostly proved wrong. I already disagreed with this statement, but the book leads me to more reasons for disagreeing. In “Ender’s Game”, Ender would repeatedly win his one on one battles with the Giant, but if he were to share and talk about his victories, it would be thought of as bragging. Where if you were to win a battle with a full team, it would be considered honorable.
Innumerable volumes of people portray power as one’s capacity to exhibit their potency; their unquenchable thirst for the dominion over all. Formidable and influential flawlessly depicts the being this definition conveys, a being considerably similar to Ender Wiggin. To the lionizing eyes of Earth, he is a child deity who possessed power abundant enough to exterminate an entire extraterrestrial race, but in truth, he is a boy, rupturing from his plethora of errors. In Ender’s Game, Orson Scott Card To be vague, Ender’s usage of power is persistent, him not ceasing until the annihilation is complete. “Ender…kicked him again…
My book report is on "Ender 's Game" by Orson Scott Card. Ender 's Game is a military sci-fi book that has received many awards. The author did continue the series on Ender, however the military aspect of it did not continue with the series. Ender Wiggins was only allowed to born so that he can save the human race from exstinction. Since birth he was a outcast, hated by his brother Peter, and constantly being hurt by everyone except his sister Valentine.
Hook: “At last he came to a door, with these words in glowing emeralds: THE END OF THE WORLD He did not hesitate. He opened the door and stepped through” (73). Topic: The life of an adult is not all it 's cracked up to be.
Importance of Violence Violence is more effective and necessary than other actions such as words during a fight against someone. In Ender’s Game, a boy named Ender Wiggin trains for a war in the Battle and Command School and encounters fights where his best option is violence. Violence is necessary because people need violence in order to win, to protect them, and because the lack of violence leads to loss. Violence is useful for winning a fight for example during the fight against Stilson, “Ender knew the unspoken rules of manly warfare even though he was only six. It was forbidden to strike an opponent who lay helpless on the ground; only an animal would do that,”(Card pg.7).
In the book “A Raisin in the Sun,” has many cultural segregation issues that are still in play today, such as racism. Moreover, when Lindner, a white man, states, “that for the happiness of all concerned that our Negro families are happier when they live in their own communities,”(Hansberry 1590) which evidently shows that he directly aimed racism towards the Younger family when they were trying to move into a bigger house in the white community. In today’s society bluntly uses vulgar language towards other races in a derogatory and dismissive way.
In Chapter 14 Ender and his friends were to believe their final evaluation is the last test and game before they go to battle against the buggers for real. But Ender and his companions believed these stimulators were just games they were playing against fake enemies. Not until they have succeeded their final test did General Graff and Mazer Rackham explain that these games they were playing were actually the real deal. I believe that the Command School authorities were justified on how they handled Ender’s and his peers final evaluation because sometimes lying and keeping the truth away from somebody for the good of humanity is worth the mistake that has been done. Without tricking Ender and his friends they would not take any necessary risks to battle
