Atlas Shrugged the Movie

On April 15, Atlas Shrugged: Part I will be released in theaters in select cities around the country.
Based on Ayn Rand's epic 1957 novel, the new movie plots the collapse of American society after men of the mind (thinkers, industrialists, scientists, artists and other innovators) go on strike and vanish, refusing to contribute to a collectivist world.

To learn more about the film and to get involved, please visit the official website at http://www.atlasshruggedpart1.com/

Let's see, thinkers, industrialists, scientists, artists (artists??)...what group of movers 'n' shakers are the publicists for this movie passing over in silence?

Oh yeah, financiers. Gee, we'd all really be screwed if the finance industry went on strike and vanished.

Excellent observation, Nudie.

What gets me is the part one part.

God dang, this looks kind of awesome!

They showed the trailer in front of something I saw recently and the audience was laughing at the trailer.
I'll probably go into the wee hours.
