Wow the same Charlize Theron kissing Castro's and Chavez' butts?

I’m sure that the film version will bear little resemblance to the novel.
No libs in the cast please.
Not like the remake of Manchurian CAndidate!
Jolie is kind of an enigma, but the other three are all leftists.
I have my doubts, but I hope it’s as good as (Turner’s!!) TNT “Animal Farm”, even if unintentional...
I’d love to see Cate Blanchett play Dagny.
I think Angelina would have been good, b/c it’s supposedly one of her favorite books and I think she would have been passionate about the role.
But I’m a little burned out on her and she’s been dragging her feet on this movie for years.
whats the chance this film will be pro-leftist?
Last I heard a few years ago, Angelina Jolie had the movie rights to the book Atlas Shrugged.
Is that a picture of Bawney Frank with the article? WTF?
Yeah, the way they made the "bad" guys the "big bad corporation" ... I couldn't believe that ... I walked out when I discovered the "rewrite".
Yeah, her father Jon Voight has made big strides in the right direction.
or the Tom Clancey movie where the muslims were replaced with German neo-nazi’s
Ah Jeez, not that commie actress. She’s one of the “Clooney acolytes”. I’ve heard her interviewed once and she’s the walking billboard for the left. Hope it will be Jolie.
I just finished the book on Monday. I would love to see this made into a movie and now really is the perfect time.
I just started reading this for the first time and was wondering why it had never been made into a movie. Thanks for the post!
Yeesh - I’m betting that in the Hollywood version the inhabitants of Galt’s Gulch are all arrested and sent to a labor camp...
Francisco D'Aconia has to be Antonio Banderas
Briefly, I wanted Arnold to be the Swedish guy, but I think Arnold is too old now.
Daniel Craig has to be Hank Reardon, although Hugh Jackman would work.
Don't like Theron as Dagney. Hate Julia Roberts as Dagney. She is absolutely the most important, and hardest, to cast. Jennifer Love Hewitt is too young. Kim Cattrall is too fluffy. Catherine Zeta Jones is not hard enough. Angelina is in fact believable in the role, but barely. Linda Hamliton of "Terminator 2" era would have been perfect, as would Sigourney Weaver of "Alien" era. But both are just too old now.
