how about this?

The book had a lot more details that were left out in the movie. There was less of peter and valentine in the movie and I really think peter was an important character because he had a big impact on Ender’s actions. Ender’s timeline is changed drastically in the movie; therefore, we do not get to see him growing up, at different stages of his life.

The book and the movie had a lot similarities since movie was based on the book. The buggers were enemies in the movie and the book that was an important aspect The book and the movie had some differences as well. In the book the story takes place over a span of 6 years where in the book the story has been compressed. I really think it was a bad idea because we did not get to see Ender grow

    It gave exquisite details on how each individual part happened and how each character responded. Supporting my thesis, the novel was more intriguing than the movie. Each event was described clearly, whereas in the film many were left out or unspoken of. I feel as if the movie focused on just the main parts of the story, but in the book every little obstacle was written out. Therefore, I have given various examples as to why the book was better than the film, along with the major similarities and differences of the…

    Ender was an isolated, third born young man who was raised knowing he had to defeat the buggers. He was forced by his family and the government who told him he was born for one reason and one reason only, to defeat the buggers. At a young age, Ender was recruited into Battle School to learn how to fight the buggers and he did so well that he became the best commander and moved up to Command school to control the simulator. When he was fighting in the “simulated games”, he was actually fighting real buggers and was in real battles, but he didn’t find this out until every bugger was killed. The book was better than the movie because the book had more details and action while the movie left many details…

    I feel that the book was more detailed and you could hear Max’s thoughts. When you read a book, you visualize the characters based on the way they are described. I thought Gwen would have longer hair, and Freak would be blond like the book stated. Max and Freak’s friendship also had a better start in the book than in the movie. In the book, they became friends when Max helped Freak retrieve his ornithopter.…

    They deliberately singled him out, and made him the target for bullying and physical abuse by praising him on the launch. They encouraged the fight between him and Bonzo by putting Ender in control of Dragon Army. When Ender committed genocide, they lied to him by making him think it was a training exercise, then shortly after openly admitting that they used him, that he was nothing but a weapon. Ender was used again and again, it seems like the only choice he could make was what he would eat for…

    Often movies are made out of blockbuster books. Sometimes the movies do a good job of capturing the most important moments from the book and presenting them in the movie. Unfortunately, some movies do not always accurately depict the books they represent with full details. There are many reasons why a movie depiction of a book fails not least of which is because they are only given a couple of hours to tell the whole story in the book. A book is able to go in depth with the character’s emotions and experiences while a movie based on the book is limited by the length of the film.…

    Ironically due to the storyline; the book is better than the movie, because it is shows better description, character analysis, and it gets the point across to the reader to show what leads up to the main idea. While, the movie it is more vague and fast paced so it's hard to comprehend the storyline. The book is more illustrative than the movie. For example, the…

    In “The Landlady”, Billy Weaver is lured into a seemingly normal bed and breakfast by an old lady who, despite her gentle and unthreatening appearance, wants to kill him. It is a story about how those with cruel intent may take advantage of those who are innocent and naive. Although the book and the movie can be arguably similar if generalized, there are many differences that may change the way a reader/viewer may grasp the concept of the story. Since a movie and book cannot be exactly the same, the film version is bound to have things that differ from the text. One example of how the book develops the development of the story is with the setting.…
