Found this on VUDU, free with a few ads sprinkled here and there. Interesting that all three parts were made with different casts, as well as being made during the BHO years. I saw a lot of parallels in some of the plot and what I see at work a lot of times. I guess we could all be like John Galt as needed, huh?

Hard to believe the novel was written in 1957.

As for the movies, I've only ever seen the first two--and I've attempted to watch the series twice. I kind of like the idea that the entire cast is different for each movie but it's clearly evident that production quality deteriorates from the first to the second, which deters me from watching the third.

I read the book as well as The Fountainhead

Long reads but worth it.

The movies are OK, the book, while long, is great.

Currently drinking my coffee out of an "Atlas Shrugged - Now Non-fiction" mug.

I liked the first of the film series for the most part. Saw it in the theatre and there was applause at the end. I’m less-thrilled with the other two.

The book, on the other hand, is a favorite. I have a “Galt’s Gulch Parking Permit” decal on my vehicle haha...

Actually, the book is Atlas Shrugged. The Fountainhead is a different story, but along similar lines.

I watched the first episode. It was ok. When I heard they'd changed the entire cast for the 2nd episode, I didn't bother with it. That made zero sense to me.

The books are great, but a little long winded. I’ve read them all a few times.
