I wish they had made the movie a long time ago. It would seem anachronistic now, a movie about the "future" where the hero has to stop an get a "long distance operator" on a pay phone to call someone.

Honestly, I still think they could pull it off.

Personally, though, I would never watch it. I have a thing about watching a movie after I have read the book. I won't do it. I relish deeply the characters my mind has made.

I had imagined that a good, modern retelling of Atlas Shrugged would use the airline industry in place of the railroad industry in the book.
