The interesting parts of the film (artificial intelligence and morality) are shoved to the side in order to have more of Will Smith beating up robots.Eoinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08200625215414650840noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5969628120150740621.post-68866119332732083662013-03-19T20:45:56.448-04:002013-03-19T20:45:56.448-04:00All great series!

Starship Troopers was actually a pretty good book so the Ender comparison is not nearly as worrying as it seems. Also don't get me started on the I Robot fiasco of a movie.

There are so...Usually the plug on the back/inside. There are so many books out there that people love that I hate (Graceling) and vice-versa, so I'm wary of recommendations, unless they're from people who know me and what I like. That doesn't mean I'm never influenced by others' opinions (The Hunger Games is a great example), but for the most part, I rely on the book description. If it sounds like something I'll like, I'll read it.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11469931351791279659noreply@blogger.com
