FYI, multiple spoilers, of both the second movie, as well as the overall story, in the article for those who have not read the books, but have seen the first movie.
(Yeah, I know, but still, I’m sure there are some people out there who fit the description I stated above.)
Good article, worth the read.
From the article…
We’re also reminded of another thing Villeneuve told us this year: “I always have been, since I was born as a filmmaker, concerned, inspired, and sensitive about the female condition and women’s relationship with power.” He even went on to say he wanted his movie “to be an adaptation about the Bene Gesserit. I want the Bene Gesserit to be at the center of the epicenter of this adaptation.”
Saving you a click: Miller wanted to use her, but the new movie takes place 20 years before Fury Road and he was not happy with the results of de-aging technology after looking I to it.
I think the movie adapted the book better than they did with the Harry Potter books. Or most everything else.
As someone who tries to watch the movies first, so I’m not let down, I was a bit afraid going into Ender Game because I found that book series very early in life. I would have wanted the movie to be longer, but I respect how well it followed the source material while making a very slow and methodical book accessible to a general audience. Even going so far as to include the lake scene and the egg scene.
It was much better than the critics at the time would admit. Many of them are critical of the movie just because they hate Orsen Scott Card.

Forget the critics, Asa Butterfield did what he could but they didn't fully explore the crushing loneliness that Ender felt as a third and ignored the emotional weight that he carried as a result of the Xenocide.
I really tried to like the new Dune movies but I couldn’t seem to care about any of the characters. The old movies weren’t as well made, but I cared more about the characters.
