    VIDEO: UK ‘Ender’s Game’ TV Spot

    Watch a 1 minute TV spot for the UK. There isn’t any new footage, but it’s still kind of cool because it merges the teaser trailer with the full trailer and somehow the coloring looks a lot better. Those lucky Brits only have 3 weeks to go!

    Listen to an Exclusive 90-Second Preview of Steve Jablonsky’s ‘Ender’s Game’ Score

    EndersGame

    With Ender’s Game just over 28 days from release, the anticipation is building for longtime fans of the novel worldwide. The movie’s score, which was composed by Steve Jablonsky (Transformers), will be released on October 22, 2013 and contains a total of 21 tracks.

    The nice folks over at Varese Sarabande sent over the score for me to listen to and I’ll admit, despite my claims to resist, I listened to it all night. I’ve managed to resist listening to the finale tracks so far, hopefully I can keep that up until I see the movie.

    To give you a taste, I’ve been allowed to pick 90 seconds of music to preview from two tracks. The first 45 seconds comes from “Battle Room” and the latter 45 seconds is from “Dragons Win”. Be sure to listen to it and let us know what you think!

    Full track list:

    Don’t forget to pre-order the soundtrack.

    io9 Reveals 360° Tour of Dragon Army Barracks and Graff’s Office

    Graffs-Office

    i09 is giving Launchies around the world a chance to take 360° tours of two Ender’s Game sets: the Dragon Army barracks and Graff’s office. We’ve seen Graff standing in his office and we know that behind that wall is the Battle Room, where Graff can watch battles. Funnily enough, it looks like there’s a doorway to a shaft right above his desk. Perfect for snoopy little Bean-like soldiers. 😉

    Dragon-Barracks

    The Dragon Army barracks has DRAGON on the floor of the entryway, just like what we saw in the still MTV released yesterday of Ender and Petra entering Salamander’s barracks.

    Thanks to @SpeedBrkr for the tip.

    Update: We’ve embedded the tours below thanks to IF-BattleSchool.com.

  • MTV Exclusively Reveals 5 New ‘Ender’s Game’ Stills

    MTV Exclusively Reveals 5 New ‘Ender’s Game’ Stills

    Ender-Finale

    MTV has just released 5 new Ender’s Game stills including Ender in his final battle (with Alai, Petra, and Bean!) and the teachers behind him. See all five images below!

    They’ve also included bits and pieces of storyline for us to obsess over.

    In his new post with the Salamander Army, Ender meets Petra (Hailee Steinfeld), one of the only girl enlistees. The two begin training together, with Petra serving as a sort of mentor to young Ender. Later, when Ender is given his own command over Dragon Army (which it appears we see here), Petra is among his troops, and he relies heavily on her expertise in the computer-simulated exercises meant to replicate war against the Buggers.

    Thanks to Ender News for the tip!

    For comparison, here’s a look at what they look like in the movie:

    The tags in the film have debossed Braille and the awesome folks at AlphaEngravers say they should be able to deboss the Braille. My tag is simply embossed because I didn’t know any better.
