Looks interesting... I think someone should make a john Titor movie.

IIRC didnt ender's game get optioned at one point?

Yes but it's in development hell.

Empire is more likely to be made at this point than Ender's Game.

[Tzimisce]

...are Mike and his robots going to offer us protection from what is on the screen?

[MinorityRepublican]

Ping!

[ The war of words between Right and Left has collapsed into a shooting war, though most people just want to be left alone. ]

WRONG.. There is no right wing in the United states.. None..

[I_Love_My_Husband]

Oooh. Now, he's a conservative guy from what I understand. This would be cool.

[MinorityRepublican]

WRONG.. There is no right wing in the United states.. None..

There's no such thing as a Right Wing Conspiracy like Hillary Clinton had mentioned.

However, Right Wing is a simple term to use to describe Conservative folks who wants the Government to leave them alone.

He's an old-style Democrat actually.

The left wing is socialist the right wing is the opposite..
There is zero organized right wing in the United States.. None..

[MinorityRepublican]

There is zero organized right wing in the United States.. None..

Of course you're right. There isn't a right wing milita or some sort of organization nowadays.

But the word "Right Wing" has changed and we are part of it according to media.

With the recent election results, the media frames the issues, not us.

Like for example, Democrats should be red because they are closer to the ideals of former Soviet Union than the Republicans would ever be.

[Crim]

Clearly...you think the red blue thing was a co-incidence...

Can't believe this is being made into a movie before some of OSC's more proven works. There are so many to choose from. Maybe Hollywood is scared of some the Mormon undertones that are in many of his works?

Or maybe Hollywood is looking forward to turn OSC's novel into a movie where Conservatives are viewed as evil bigots and that is all our fault that the Civil War happened.

I wonder who will play "The Postman"?

What is is and What ain't ain't.. There is no right wing in the United States..
What apprears to be right wing is left wing light..
Even "the Center" is left wing...

How'd that happen?.

"The battle rages between the high-technology weapons on one side and militia foot soldiers on the other, devastating the cities and overrunning the countryside"

I read the book. It made me mad just because the above description never materializes. I mean it.
