"atlas shrugged" will change the face of american politics

[washamericom]

Irrelevant.

That doesn't alter at all the fact that the left was claiming that an independent film, entirely in Aramaic, would be an utter and complete flop.

The claim of Atlas being a flop will be similar.

What will hurt this film is the length - what will save it is Netflix.

it's amazing... atlas shrugged the movie will be the first film of social significance that will be available to anyone who wants to see it. the tech age is a beautiful methaphor and tribute to rand's philosophy and assertion that man is most creative when not stifled by the heavy hammer and anvil of government oppression.

This is the funniest thing I've read all day.

Do you work for the distribution company? That's the only explanation I can come up with your emotional investment in this movie. Either that, or you're such a Randite fanboy that you're busting in your jeans over anything with her name on it.

Atlas Shrugged is a vanity project funded by a single man, starring b-actors from bad television shows. It's not going to "change" anything.

jealous, try getting out more.

hollywood's trying to stop it, that right there should tell you something. what makes you think automatically i'm male... seems kind of sexist.
zat allu got ? let's just see what happens... shall we. ? i do have financial interest in it's success, but it's not about the money. have you read the novel or seen the movie, or are you just a blowhard ? glad you're amused.

It's hilarious how the Right has pre-annointed this film as a great success.

Their myths about events are now preceding the actual events.

I'm surprised at the high level of regard that "mystics" hold for it

 

[theDoctorisIn]

I think it's "full disclosure" time.

Wash, do you own a piece of that film? Is your constant posting and over-the-top praise for this movie financially based?

Or are you just a Randite fanboy?

 

[bripat9643]

Ayn Rand philosophy is being applied by invader Mexicans. Steal everything you can and take no responsibility for anything. Lets see how long the world can last on that.

Stealing everything you can is the liberal moral code. The welfare state is just a vast criminal conspiracy.

Who do you think you're fooling?

 

[bripat9643]

Note that Ayn Rand's egoism was so profoundly crippling that she feared Wm F. Buckley, arguably the smartest modern conservative in our lifetimes?

Where is the evidence for this utter bullshit?

 

[bripat9643]

I just wonder how many tea baggie heads will explode when they find out that Atlas Shrugged is about high speed rail...

Why are libs so intent on demonstrating what profound ignoramuses they are?

 

[Uncensored2008]

will Galt's rant against mysticism and the sacrificial mentality it spawns resonate with the same crowd? Oh, the irony!

I don't think it's aimed at the same crowd.

 

[Uncensored2008]

Of what?

I don't know how well Atlas will translate to a movie. While I find the speech on money by "Francisco D'Anconia" to be about the most profound and meaningful passage I have ever read, I don't know how well it will be received in film. Film is a visual, rather than an intellectual medium.

 

[Uncensored2008]

I'm surprised at the high level of regard that "mystics" hold for it

Do you have quotes by Algore and Michael Mann about their regard? I hadn't seen any mystics favoring this - most of them are still demanding virgins for the AGW "volcano god."

Will you disclose?

Are in somehow shorting stock in the film, or are you just a petulant child throwing spitwads at that which you cannot grasp?

Full disclosure? Sure. I'm ex-film industry, and I know a vanity film when I see one. (think "Battlefield Earth", for Rand-fanboys instead of Scientologists).

A 4 year old can "grasp" Rand's ideas. They're not complicated.

hollywood's trying to stop it, that right there should tell you something. what makes you think automatically i'm male... seems kind of sexist.
zat allu got ? let's just see what happens... shall we. ? i do have financial interest in it's success, but it's not about the money. have you read the novel or seen the movie, or are you just a blowhard ? glad you're amused.

Haven't seen the movie, since it's not out yet, and I no longer work in the industry. I read Atlas Shrugged about 10 years ago, and I've re-read parts of it since then, but I think it's an awfully written book. It's boring, two dimensional, and repetitive. How many times in one book does Objectivism need to be explained?

I apologize for assuming you're a man if you're not, gender is generally hard to figure out on a message board.

And, no, "Hollywood" isn't trying to stop it. Where did you get that one from?
