Seriously? It was so bad I actually felt bad for the actors. And Dagney? OMG those bags under her eyes?

I thought it was painful to watch. At one point I fell asleep. The acting was horrible and the sets looked like there were on a sound stage on the backlot of MGM. It was such a wonderful book. It makes the first part look like it is Oscar worthy!

Agreed. What were your thoughts on how they handled the money speech by Francisco and reardens court scene in part 2

Good idea about the centers. Or conferences?

Can anyone confirm that's AS3 is happening for sure? Is it in pre-production?

I thought part II was a little choppy in it's editing, the story line not really flowing as smoothly as in part I. All the actors did a damn fine job. Overall a damn fine rendition of a great book. I hope part III is as epic as expected.

Can't wait for part 3. Maybe by then, I wlll have the book read. Only in chapter 3.

I really hope not. Consistency would be nice.

Are we getting a third cast?

Can't wait! You have done a fantastic job.
P.S. Would love to have a decal/magnate with the Atlas Shrugged graphic (Atlas holding the world on his shoulder). What about licensing "Galt's Gulch" centers where like minded entrepreneurs/capitalists can meet, access resources and help each other?

Stoked. Loved part 1 and 2. Loved seeing a book I love come to life.

Yay!!!!

Will they do the scene with James, and the fallout with Cheryll? Including her suicide? If the film producers don't somehow include her internal conclusions that led her to jumping, it might get lost on folks who didn't read AS.

What metal will the AS3 BluRay box be made from ? I surmise, it can only be gold, after Rearden'metal and D'anconia copper. Gold is the only other metal given importance in the book, and probably the best choice.

Project X hasn't been mentioned...

Oh - and Ragnar's appearance where he gives Mr Reardon his gold bar, and his speech about how his goal in life right now is to destroy the popularly held noble image of Robin Hood. But they're going to have a devil of a time tying him into the story at this point. His role so far as I can remember in the movies has been a headline in a newspaper.

I'm eager to see how they handle Dagney's tour of Galts Gulch, the testing of Project X, and the lights going out in New York City.

I foresee them having problems with John Galt working for Taggert. He's supposed to have been having lunch conversations with Eddie this entire time, and that's completely been lost in translation to the movie.

They are going to have a horrendous problem compressing "This is John Galt Speaking"!

Looking forward to part 3 !

Part III will tie it all together. Many people are waiting to buy a DVD triple set.

The below reply was made by me. It came up under the other member's name... Argh! I have no idea how!

That just made me laugh! How many more weeks away are we from the arrival? 2? Tick tick tick tick tick tick.....

Well that just wouldn't do at all... :) I guess I will have to curb my suspense by contemplating the approaching arrival date of my pt.2 DVD.... No, that isn't working either it is just more suspense.... crap :(

He could, but then he'd have to kill you... ;-)

That, or spiders.. Ugh..

I hope AS Pt III will be as faithful to the last part of the book as possible. I can't wait.
