    I don't think making a movie defending the obscenely rich and powerful should be made in a rescission caused by the obscenely rich and powerful.

    I hate Ayn Rand with a passion. I remember reading a quote about atlas shrugged and it was something like, “There are two books which have defined our generation, atlas shrugged and lord of the rings, one involves people living in a fantasy land completely divorced from human nature. The other involves orcs.

    The problem with Social Darwinism is that their can only be one winner and guess what. It's not going to be any of us!

    I wonder if the film will touch on what happens after the end of the book?

    Pssh, only newbs use agriculture. All you need is a couple of fishing nets and you've created an inexhaustible source of nutritious food. Then you can start working on making cups. Duh.

    So we can all agree, Ayn Rand = Nutcase.
