They’re both main characters

And they’re both horror films.

Except of course Totoro. Because that’s the Disney dub above, and the Disney dub displeases me. Streamline Fox dub all the way.

I had somehow NEVER heard of/seen Whisper of the Heart until tonight and OH MY GOD that movie gets me. I’m using capslock for a reason. You should go watch it. Right now.
Woot. Have my ticket for the hobbit double feature on the 12th. Who needs sleep?
So, I picked up the Entertainment Weekly Fall Movie Preview that’s out this week, because I love movies. (Still weird to see a mainstream publication talking about Doctor Who, but I digress).
Among the films coming out later this year, I’m looking forward to Ender’s Game. It’s probably my single favorite book (even if Orson Scott Card is a douchebag) and one that I’ve been hoping to see even though it’s been caught in development hell forever.
But then there was this quote, from the director:
“In the book the battle room is a big black box, but I decided it would be more visually exciting to make it a huge glass orb so you could be looking down at earth and up at stars”
OMG NO
If you’ve read the book at all, you’ll know the Battle Room is a huge part of the story, and part of what makes it important is that it is supposed to be disorienting. That’s why “The enemy gate is down" is such a key moment. If you make the battle room clear, then you immediately give the players a frame of reference and that utterly defeats the purpose!
This is probably just a bit of nerd rage, but seriously this is nearly enough to make me not want to see it after all. I know there will be changes in any adaption, but this just might be too much.
