[QUOTE]Originally posted by PsyLiam: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Thoughtchopper: [qb] If it's ONLY a bunch of white kids in the movie Ender's Game will lose a good deal of it's punch for me...it's supposed to be a true planetary effort. Besides, why would Hollywood be worried that there are black and asian kids in the movie? The hero is still a white kid, for christ's sake. There's still that comfort zone for your racist masses.[/qb][/QUOTE]Sorry, Thoughtychops, but did you actually read the article? There's an ever so slightly difference between "Every other kid will be white" and "ALL the kids will be white". And if that's taken literally, a 50% ethnic cast is still fairly impressive for a major Hollywood film. And regarding te notion that he should have refused to make it there and then...making TV and films isn't like writing a novel, it's all about compromise. If he lets one thing slide in order to let the rest of the story come through, surely that's good? Or, to put it another way, what would have happened if Roddenberry had pulled Star Trek because he couldn't keep both Spock [i]and[/i] Number One? [/QB][/QUOTE]
