Took my three teens to the 9:30 pm show in Boulder.
Had a great conversation in the car on the way...
On the way home 16 year old son said now he wanted to read the book....another great chat on the way home from the theatre.
Thanks Movie Makers and Cast. We loved it!

PS I gave the opening speech at the 1st Denver Tea Party and talked about Three Ways to go Galt.

Huge Rand Fan!
That's "Twilight" the movie...not "twilight" referring to the early stages of oblivion. sheeesh : /
And you are right. Better to be in the game. Benchfishing is not the same as being hooked up on a big one.
Same thing happened here with Avatar.
“II was at that first Denver Tea Party, what a fabulous day!”
Yes, it was memorable!

Each part of the movie trilogy will be tied to the three parts of Atlas Shrugged.
Part 2 will be released on 4/15/12, part 3 on 4/15/13.
I went to see it in Southlake. Applause at the beginning, applause at the end. My rough guess on attendance was over 200.
Best part of the evening? No cell phones, no texting, no talking during the movie.
I took my wife and two sons (22 & 9). My son liked it so much, he's taking his girlfriend.
I'm going back for several more viewings. Part 2 should be a kick in the a$$. I can't wait to see Ragnar the Pirate (Danneskjold) appear.
My only (minor) gripe with the movie was the brevity of Francisco D'anconia's actions on San Sebastian mines.
I absolutely loved the movie. The final scene, with Dagny's reaction to the inferno of Wyatt's Torch was Oscar worthy.
Cool!
Sounds great. thanks for taking the time to explain for me.
The last movie I we went to was Forest Gump. We just returned from the movie. I thought, it was about 80% true to the book, which I’ve read 4-5 times. I can’t wait for part 2 and 3.
Everyone applaused at the theater we went to.
How was the ride home?
