Are they ever going to make a sequel to Ender's Game??

I hope to god they dont.

You can't really have a sequel to an abortion.

Hope not.

On the other hand, I'd be on board with a one season mini-series on AMC or HBO or something that takes the first book all the way through and allows Ender and his class to age.

I read Speaker and Shadow of the hegemon, years ago. Those books, like Enders Game, would be hard to put on film. Enders Game just isn't made for film, and that's why I'm more forgiving of the movie than most.

Has anyone read the books following Ender's game (e.g. Speaker of the Dead, etc)? Are they any good?

They are VERY different. I'd advise reading Ender's Shadow before moving on to the sequels. It tells Bean's story in relation to the same events occurring in Ender's Game.

I hope not. The books weren't that good and really wouldn't translate well to a movie.

I read the Ender series and the Ender's Shadow series.

Ender's Game is by far the best, and the Shadow series was a very good read too. The other books in the original series were very different than the first, and they got weirder and weirder the more I read. I finished them and I remember the story ended very abruptly. There is allegedly another book coming out that will combine and complete the storylines of both series. But I'm not holding my breath.

It gets extremely philosophical and preachy.

This. I pushed through Speaker of the Dead and stopped about a quarter into the third one.

I also recommend Bean's series.

I hope not. The first movie sucked donkey nuts.

The 2nd movie is heavily cerebral.
