meanwhile, Jon Polito's not jewish, but was playing a conniving, big nosed, moneygrubber...
This was a problem in the first film, it was fixed by the recasting (I don't know whether the problem or the fixing was intentional, only that the fixes did occur). This made more sense in the second, the story took place in America, it made sense that the heroes and the villains were predominantly non-jewish white folks.
Of the choices, I suppose getting the message of the book right is the most important priority. However, it's more than that. The actors need to be able to display the passion and the character that makes one feel the same way reading the book as watching the movie. Those things did not come across in the first two movies. I think that's largely because in the book, one is able to read the person's thoughts in the narration and understand so many things that are not necessarily verbalized. That doesn't translate in a movie unless you show explicit emotions on a person's face or have them voice what they are thinking in a natural way that's not awkward. This is the piece I feel is missing and should be the number one priority.
"A sweep of brown hair fell back, almost touching her shoulders."
an ideological traffic cop, not letting projects having a theme with which he disagreed (or thought would not draw an audience) come to fruition. This, of course, is the prerogative of a
private company like ABC.

Right Director + Right Cast = Getting the
message of AS right..........which is "the individual exists, the collective does not" thus "individualism is pro-life; collectivism is pro-death".
Bullseye !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
selection of media; too many in that field are against its philosophy.
2. The movie(s) or TV adaption will not change minds........the goal is to raise interest in the book.........and then in AR's ideas via her other fiction and non-fiction.
"downside'? Emotions react to the thinking one has done or failed to do.............if the thinking is objectively rational (consonent with man's nature), the emotions are pleasurable; if not, then torturous. The mind is man's tool of survival; when used correctly (reality identification) the results, including emotions, are very satisfactory..................including seeing when to avoid or escape from the irrational.

Definitely.
His past roles, especially as Captain Mal in Firefly and Serenity just fit the role of John Galt perfectly. The whole "me vs the rest of the world", seeing through the blinding fog brought about by the "everybody else says so, so it must be ok"... Just a perfect choice.
Plus he has that perfect stone face that I always pictured John Galt having. The "I know you think that way, but thinking doesn't make it true"
