My blu-ray arrived Tuesday, but I haven’t opened it yet. I’m going to watch it this weekend.

Hmm... going to look...

Hah! There it is! On the back cover there's this summary:

"AYN RAND'S timeless novel of courage and self-sacrifice comes to life for a new millenium. The year is 2016 and America is on the verge of economic disaster. The greatest citizens are being targeted and dark forces are working to bring about America's final days. Our only hope for salvation lies with Dagny Taggart and Henry Rearden, rugged individualists whose bold ideas may have the power to spark a revolution and reclaim the American Dream."

Yeesh... aside from the wrongness of "self-sacrifice" it really isn't even a very good description of what the story is about. Not close.

Wow. Somewhere there's a copy editor having a really, really bad day.
