I found these two great trailers for Atlas Shrugged coming out Apr. 15th; tax day- somebody must have thought it ironic - : )
The second clip here is a more detailed exposition of how Dagny is not going to let progress stop just because unionized labor's control was in jeopardy. In my opinion, Taylor Schilling (Dagny) has a bright future.... She must have read the book and believed it.
Thanks for your interest.

Atlas Shrugged [the movie] is out April 15th, 2011!!!
WHO IS JOHN GALT?
I'll be there for the opening of Atlas Shrugged. Will you? (special free gift at the end of the post)
Theater chains are beseiged with requests from fans. The producers are now looking to expand to more than 80 Cities accross the country.
Check out this news release----
CULVER CITY, Calif., April 1, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Based on the film's recent fan-based grassroots uprising, "The Strike" Productions today announced it will be expanding the initial release of the Atlas Shrugged movie from 11 markets to over 50.
"AMC called directly to report their online contact system was being hit too hard. They requested we direct traffic to a specific address just to handle the volume," said producer Harmon Kaslow.
"While it's unusual for showtimes to be listed this early, the doors of the exhibitors have been thoroughly beaten down by Ayn's fans. Many of the theaters are now posting showtimes so tickets can be pre-purchased," continued Kaslow. "And, theaters and showtimes are now being reported as sold-out."
Fandango.com lists the 7:00pm showing at Regal Cinema's Union Square Theater in New York City as "sold out."

It looks like you might have to get reservations ahead of time via online services. I think Ayn Rand would be astonished by the buzz about her book-turned-movie. Especially in an era where so many haven't ever cracked open the book itself.
---------------------------------------------------
"Our online 'Demand Atlas!' service has been receiving an incredible amount of traffic since launch," said Scott DeSapio, Online Marketing Director of the film. "After toping the charts at another web site as the 'Hottest Demand Worldwide' for more than a week, we decided to build our own in-house 'Demand Atlas!' feature to better service Ayn Rand fans. We're completely blown away by the response."
"Our fans have spoken, and we have directed our booking agents to expand the release of Atlas Shrugged into the major theaters located in more than 80 cities across America," announced Kaslow. "Of course, until we're locked down, fans still need to let us know where the movie should play by coming to our website and demanding Atlas to their city."
"As a direct result of fans in Atlanta demanding Atlas, we immediately set about booking a theater. The current report is that the theater is already sold out for a number of shows on Friday, April 15, 2011 - opening day. We couldn't be more excited." concluded Kaslow.

Are we beginning to see the rise of "rationalism? Maybe a few years of Mr. O. has caused a few to see what happens when social programs and irrational adherence for dangerous policies is the rule of the land.
