Here it is. The trailer to Atlas Shrugged II, The Strike.

It will be good. I like the line "The government takes what it wants, and taxes the rest."

I saw part one of Atlas Shrugged. I have to admit I thought the acting was awful. I hope part two will be better. Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie were originally cast to be in Atlas Shrugged back in 2006. I can't imagine why, since they're both hard core lefties.

Atlas Shrugged is one movie divided into three parts. The first third of any screenplay is character developement. That is why the first movie was so slow. Not everyone knows who Dagney Taggart or Henry Reardon are. Yeah, I am on a list to get the information early. I got the notification two days ago but haven't had time to watch the trailer yet.

I think that a desire for a sense of community is very strong among conservatives; it's partly why people go to Tea Party Rallies and Glenn Beck rallies.

I saw 2016 this past weekend and I have to say, I'm not impressed. I've known all that stuff and far more from "yes, really" Beck. If youd just listen to a couple of his programs at 5, you'd be so far up to date that movie would look like child's play. I mean duh. Who didn't know that stuff already ?

You have to be careful with revealing negative information on a politcal candidate; it can backfire. I think that's the reason that Romney, or even his surrogates, don't go after Obama with everything they've got. The movie may have been less aggressive because of the same concern.
