Oh, wait…
As is tradition (because of incompetence!), the entire cast of Part III will be different than Part II, which was different from Part I. Free market, baby!
John Galt will be played by Kristoffer Polaha, while Laura Regan is Dagny Taggart 3.0, and Rob Morrow is Hank Rearden.
Smart readers will recall that Atlas Shrugged: Part III is partially funded by begging for donations, after failing to ignite the box office during either of the first two parts (Part I made $4.6 million and Part II made $3.3 million!) This welfare queen irony is not lost on Ayn Rand, who spent the last years of her life broke and on government assistance. Because free market, baby! Where would we be if it wasn’t for wingnut welfare keeping useless hacks employed writing things bashing the common man? Much better off.

January 23, 2014 at 7:44 pmGiven these days how Leonardo DiCaprio seems the ‘go to guy’ for playing rich douchebags, I was thinking how appropriate it’d be were he to appear in an Ayn Rand film. They’d never afford him for ‘Atlas Meh’, of course, because free market, baby!
