Buddy, buddy, buddy, I hope they don't screw this one up. Release date is April 15th? :bow:

Great title, not a great book to begin with. The Fountainhead was a much better-crafted novel, don't you think?

Never read it. On my list. So many on my list, and no time. Well, I've put off reading just about anything until I'm done with my writing. Then I'll go on a spree before I shoot through my first round of editing.

If you're at all interested in Objectivism, I'd read Fountainhead for fun and then move on to her non-fiction. Atlas Shrugged is an interesting thought experiment, but its a 1000-page bran muffin of a novel.
 
I will watch it for sure because i admired the book even though her ideas were never going to be practical.
 
John Sears is playing John Gault! Awesome. (That's like DJ Qualls playing Tom Joad).

John Gault's soporific radio address went on for more than 60 pages in the book; I wonder how long it will be in the movie?

Ayn Rand...blech.
 
Comes off like a TV movie. Couldn't they afford some stars?

Actually had more quality actors than I thought after seeing the quality. Just looks like a tv movie.

"You can't have my metal!" ***.....seriously...

Agreed. Both books were interesting though.
