Atlas Shrugged: Netflix

[volvotom]

Netflix lists Atlas Shrugged under "SciFi and Fantasy."

 

[LoathesRaisins]

The more you know.

 

[Dr.Dickless]

well...

what did you want them to put it under?

 

[volvotom]

I would have guessed political dramas or comedy.

 

[netflix]

sorry.

 

[Dr.Dickless]

i like the way you think

 

[papermache]

OP are you happy now?

 

[volvotom]

Too many people on here do not think critically.

 

[Spinoza]

Would watching the movie do it justice so I don't have to read the book?

Critics gave it phenomenally horrible reviews.

 

[rzarector]

No I just don't think anybody cares about this extremely minor flaw in netflix's categorization.

 

[klayer_9]

They made so little money that Part 2 was almost canceled. oh the irony.

 

[theBearJew]

Perfect.

 

[Spinoza]

@volvotom that doesn't answer my question

 

[skiminnesota]

watching the movie(s) does in no way do the book justice.

most influential book on my life that ive read.

 

[cwphoto]

i think im going to read that book next. it looks really good. im reading anthem by ayn rand right now

 

[skiminnesota]

Anthem isnt even on the same level as Atlas Shrugged or the Fountainhead.

 

[cwphoto]

i planned on reading one of those first but my lame school library only had anthem. i'll make a trip to the city library for those sooner or later

 

[skiminnesota]

Ayn Rand would not approve.

 

[Spinoza]

Thank you skiminnesota I'll read it next

 

[steezywannabeezy]

Should I watch this right now?

 

[Peach.]

.

 

[steezywannabeezy]

Damnit, Peach. Ok.

 

[Amadeus.]

I love you.

 

[steezywannabeezy]

God, I am way too ADD tonight for this.

 

[phsk8]

No. The book would be worth your time though.

 

[volvotom]

glad at least someone else has enjoyed the joke

 

[Dr.Dealgood]

I think that's funny. But what about sci if? Bunch of people try to build the ideal world apart from society... Fits nicely.

 

[Shlobby]

Who is john gault?

 

[volvotom]

Mostly the Fantasy part.

 

[accualyisdolan]

Nah the movies suck gotta read it

 

[accualyisdolan]

And I sense op is butt hurt about atlas shrugged in general

 

[volvotom]

butt hurt? No. I share a different sociopolitical worldview, but I am in no way bitter or angry that other people do. I'm always open to good spirited discussion of issues and differences in thinking.

 

[Peach.]

You must be so intelligent.

 

[volvotom]

That's what my mom tells me.

 

[RoofDaRoofieDogg]

That's what your mom tells me too
