Courtroom scene: Roark monologues for two minutes before Zack gets bored. Cut to zoom-in shot of a jar of urine. Cut to Roark dynamiting the courthouse with all the socialists inside.

Misread this as 'Jon Secada' and nearly sprayed a mouthful of coffee across my monitor.

cavill seems like a total dick irl so there’s a decent chance he’s already a rand fan tbh

you know who i really want for this? paul ryan

I think I'd be willing to wager a good deal of money that there's a videotape in existence containing a homemade adaptation of The Fountainhead starring Paul Ryan.

Or, at the very least, a dog-eared copy of the book with many instances of 'Roark Ryan' throughout.

It always irritates me to go to a bookstore and see Ayn Rand shelved with the "Classics". She's just so irretrievable bad.

Really she belongs in self-help. Self-help for complete assholes who want to feel ok about being assholes.

two months pass...

When the first Atlas Shrugged film came out they asked for fans to say "I am john galt" to add to a dvd extra. The results are some of the best, most strange youtube videos you'll ever see pic.twitter.com/lVoSSSyQ0h

Strangely, there was only one in that group of a couple dozen youtubes that featured a person of color, at least that I noticed.
