I always enjoy it when they feel the need to put that stuff in there, but especially when it's something like "Academy Award Nominee" Harrison Ford.

Oh, he's that guy that got nominated for an Academy Award. Now I remember.

There can be no other reason for not seeing gold, there, my friend.

Yeah it's one of the most engrossing stories I've ever read for sure. I was obsessed with it as a kid. Nothing in the trailer looks anything like how I visualized it, but it never does.

I used to be a huge fan of Card's in the 90's. I probably read 15 or 20 of his books. When I found out his views on things it kinda ruined it so I jumped off.

Ditto.

I'll still read Ender and the Shadow series, but I don't buy them. Or if I do, I'll buy them from a used book store where none of the money goes to the author.

But, yeah, Ender's Game and Speaker for the Dead are two of my favorite books. Love them. This movie looks.... not the best.
