a thousand pages to tell a story that 400-500 would have done with some effective editing,

Three main chapters of ten or less pages each, a short introduction, and a short conclusion; such could have made her points clearly, and would have been read, understood, and celebrated by 100 times whatever her existing fan club amounts to.

They’re aware of that and have two intermissions during his speech in the movie.

I enjoyed the first 2 and was looking forward to 3 until I saw Ron Paul in the latest trailer and my stomach turned...will likely still see it but it was a terrific mistake having anything to do with that loon.

See my tagline and buy our book. Billthedrill and I handle a lot of your criticisms.

No way. I read the original, unabridged, never-ending, painfully epic, repetitive, redundant, verbose, repetitive, never-ending, etc., the version by Ayn Rand.

It was like listening to a Ron Paul supporter for weeks on end. No mas.

Oh understand its a bit part its a bit part that never should have been thought of...the last political figure Shrugged should of associated with.

Meh. I join the general public in shrugging at the news.

Sounds like they have a new cast and yet another different actress to play the lead, though. Could make it hard to get into the saga when it's all on DVD.

Indeed. I am always surprised when I see a script of a movie on the internet. It’s maybe a little more than a hundred pages long, but it looks like after you’d take out all the double-spacing after each character’s lines and the “SFX: GUNSHOT” and so on, you’d have no more text than about forty pages of a novel.

Thanks for the link.

No theater anywhere close.

I guess I have to wait for it to come on net flicks or by the DVD.
