You will like AS part 3, especially if you lived through the 'hoackyness' of the Cold War years. I just returned from the theater, a 65 mile round-trip, as I sit here typing this in my 'Who is John Galt' tee with a smile on my face. You will recognize quite a few cast members too. IMO, AS3 is the best of the trilogy and could stand on it's own as an adaptation of the whole book.

I really hope it’s better than the second installment. I really liked the first. They got a lot out of a really tight budget.

I never saw 1 or 2. Would I like it? I liked the book except the John Galt or other long deadly speeches.

It’s appearing about 30 miles away from me in Burlington, WA. I’ll go see it on a weekday next week.

I saw 1 and 2. I didn’t like either of them. I read the book and the movies do not do it justice.

It would have been better to handle it as a TV miniseries in 10 parts.

A HBO or showtime mini series would be better but I will take what I can get.

I've read the Fountainhead, and I'm just finishing up Atlas, and I bet Ayn Rand was the kind of person that really liked hearing herself talk. Those books take a thousand pages to tell a story that 400-500 would have done with some effective editing, and without losing one whit of important plot or characterization.

Oh, I completely agree. Wonderful meaningful stories but the author did not care much for the soul of wit, did she?
If a film tried to recreate one of those speeches, a weapon would be taken posthumously from each theatre goer in turn until everyone in the audience had committed sweet merciful suicide.
