Atlas Shrugged: April 15th

Post by Phatscotty »

In theaters on April 15th. But you have to demand it in your local theater, something to do with the free market or something. It will be coming out in 6 one hour movies.

I was reading a poll years ago where Americans voted the number one influential book in their life. Number 1 was some book about jews or something. Number two was Atlas Shrugged. I am surprised it took so long for a movie to be made. King Vidor did such a good job on his Rand movie.

At first I thought he was talking about some Holocaust book, but then I realized I read his first sentence incorrectly.

Oh well, I'm too tired to care right now.

you guys know that Ayn Rand had to get help from the government near the end of her life, right?

i enjoyed reading her books as a youth, and they are inspirational, but they are about as practical as communism.

so in the end, she shrugged and went on medicare:
