The book vs the movie

I realize that there is a lot of controversy over this movie, mostly to do with Orson Scott Card's insistence on sharing his personal views with the world. I try to ignore author wank, but some of the things he's done in recent years have really offended me. Still, I am of the belief that a book and its author should be judged separately, and as a piece of art, Ender's Game is a great story.
