One thing that I think bothers me about OSC's superhumans (Ender Wiggin, Alvin Maker) is that they manage to evoke deep feelings of loyalty in other characters without actually being either markedly good or likable. It always makes me feel like it's some alternate Orson-universe where people have emotions subtly different from anyone I know. On the plus side, an Ender movie--unlike a book--would have actors and a director contributing personality as well as the scriptwriter, so it might end up feeling more genuine. I'd probably consider watching it under the right circumstances. Max Wilson -- Be pretty if you are, Be witty if you can, But be cheerful if it kills you.
