Saw the first movie (available on youtube : youtube.com/watch?v=85mwDN8rsFQ) Apparently the second movie has no recurrent cast, every character is played by a new actor, furthermore there was a significant drop in the production quality.. The first movie was more or less an A-tier movie, the second hardly even a B-movie..
Is this some elaborate socialist ploy to destroy the message? Or was the failure of the filmatization of the book due to libertarians being anti-social af and only torrent the movie they watch - if the latter is the case, then have libertarians not disproven the functionality of their ideology.
tl.dr. upset about a sequel to a movie being trash and blame it on you guys or random socialists.
Nah objectivism is a shit philosophy to begin with. Can't put perfume on a turd and expect it to smell good.
I like to think of it as radical libertarianism, and that's retarded too.
> you too faggot ancaps

I was a hardcore randianite at one point too. Read Atlas Shrugged 3 times and the fountainhead at 4 times among her other books. Then I read actual philosophy that's backed up by logic and realized I was retarded.
>3BOWs2VA >3BOWs2VA >played myself Yes, you did. But not in the way you think. It's funny, everyone who I've ever met who hates Rand's work has eventually showed themselves to be dishonest. Quite the pattern.
jesus fuck le reddit dumbfuck is a teenage leftist and a homosex mongloid tier idiot. back to university commie-brainwashing with you. I can also tell that you have read neither book.
Brody Russell
National Socialism is the only legitimate philosophy
Isaiah Lopez
Was the rape scene in the Fountainhead your favorite? Or was it when Dagney was getting railed by John Gault?
> using muh cigarettes to ignite the fires of the mind
Free market economies and libertarianism can only work in nations with high cohesion and one dominant culture. Destroy the race of a nation, and all "philia" will be lost and nothing will work basically. Socrates was right.
Isaiah Powell
Except he gives a long speech on objectivism at the end. Also that other guy fails because he does what mommy tells him, not because of greed.
Jaxon Collins
He was and wasn't. The greeks in all their wisdom failed to account for adaptive preferences with regards to choice and logic.
> muh sour grapes
But this convo is out of scope for biz.
Elijah Gutierrez
Ayn Rand was a hack. Objectivism is a goddamn joke.
Fun fact about this movie: I worked on a set with the director a few years back. He was a pretty cool guy and hated the movie. Apparently the conservative group backing it took complete creative control over the film during the edit, bought him and his editor out of the film and made the movie they wanted from the footage they had. They cut out entire characters because they found out the actors were democrats. And then O'Reilly shilled it on his show, it got one weekend box office boost from idiots watching Fox News and then proceeded to flop. And there ya go.
Cameron Young
i tried watching the first movie 3 times. it sucks, no wonder the sequel sucks more.
Michael Powell
it was when the journalist was showing how he could manipulate/brainwash NPCs like yourself into worshiping garbage and the utter shit creations of the world and in the same stroke destroy works of genius because he could... and because he and his kind resented genius , talent, ability and grit more than anything on the earth.
Parker Ward
>Read Atlas Shrugged 3 times
what is reading AND comprehension
Carter Lopez
>I've read John Gaults 300 page manifesto twice.
u read AS 3 times and galt (not gault)'s speech three times?
I get scared when people are this stupid, its all ending anons.
Isaac Parker
I was a full blown Objectivist as a teenager. As an adult, I still agree with the majority of its principles but I'm also an ethnic nationalist and believe in strong borders with very limited immigration.
The movies sucked, btw. But I guess turning a 1000 page tome with a massive scope into a couple of movies is an impossible feat. They should have done a series.
Wyatt Garcia
It's not about exploitation, it's about competence versus incompetence--the Pareto principle.
Ryan Wilson
That movie is garbage and not even funny garbage, it's just bad.
Nathan Edwards
Is the new film part 2 of 2, or part 2 of 3?
Asher Rodriguez
it's funny because it's an ancap movie that was financed by an caps and they couldn't raise enough money to pay the actors for a second one.
Eli Gray
>failed to account for adaptive preferences with regards to choice and logic
Just like Marx.
Michael Diaz
Ya he was a fucking idiot. He did have some good nuggets though so it wasn't all bad.
Fuck outta here. Most wealthy people start 3/4 of the way to home plate. We all know this. Stop pretending like it isn't true.
Ya well I have to live with the fact I did it. But then again I was bored af on deployment so what are you gonna do?
