I went the audio-book route. I spend most of my day reading text in my business, fuck if im gonna read a almost 1100 pages of written text when I get home.. I liked it, but it was a little bit too detailed and rambling about minor details that didnt really pertain to the meat of the story. Maybe Rand was trippin' on acid when she wrote it, I dont know.

A must read, especially for statist type people. If this doesn't make it sink in, nothing will.

The book was meant as the ultimate statement of everything Objectivism is. Of course she had to be detailed.

I'll wait for the good one to come out.  This one looks like something Chris Elliot would turn down.

The first time I read it I sort of skimmed it, Still took a week.
The second time I read it very carefully, and studied all the key speeches, I also tended to watch the dramatisations on youtube of whatever speech I was on. They are all there and some are very well done. My favorite is a little unknown, this one.

On the second reading I reread the "Galts Gulch" part several times.  :)

Francisco's speech about money makes it all worthwhile, in my opinion.

Dale, I sincerely hope you're getting the chance to watch Spartacus on Starz.

The result is that Iron Man 2 would be identical to Atlas Shrugged, if only it contained no humor and concluded with the bad guys unanimously standing down after Stark gave a 25 minute speech.

The huge problem I have with this movie, so far, is that it's set in modern-day America.  Trains no longer carry people across the country, and a lot of the movie will be anachronistic.  They should have set it in the early/mid 20th century, like the book.

It could have been really retro in a cool way like Bioshock.

I have my doubts that they can make a good film for the limited budget they're working from. However, I thought the trailer looked pretty good. In any case, I'm sure the critics have already written their reviews on this one. Good or bad, successful or not, the critics are going to hate, just flame this film.

Don't know about Bioshock, but Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow came to mind (not that it was a good movie, but it had a cool combination of retro and postmodern.)
