Appreciative for the work of Atlas Productions
Posted by trackman13 11 years, 9 months ago to Culture
I just wanted to take the time and let everyone involved with the project aware that I am eternally grateful for the work they have done.
I remember seeing a TV ad in November of 2011 talking about the DVD release of Atlas Shrugged. I saw what I thought to be an underdog story and thought to myself i'll need to watch that. Being a tech Saavy 28 year old at the time I did what anyone else would do. I downloaded the movie via torrent. (DIdn't want to spend $20 bucks on something I had never heard of.) Upon watching Part One I had a feeling of "Wow that is happeing right now." The Cliffhanger left me wanting to see the rest of it and as soon as I pulled up google I was blasted with negative reviews and posts stating how much of a financial disaster the movie was. I stumble across the actual website and engaged in a few conversations using the old forum. Shortly after I came across several posts by our favorite troll JGISD. At that moment is when I realized that we are current losing a battle of ideals in this country.
Due to the Financial return of the movie I was doubtful that the rest of the movies would be made so I ordered the book and read it. I was so enthralled with it that I read it in a month. I always had my political beliefs and my work ethic but I had never seen any work flesh this ideals out. I immediately went from store to store looking for a Blu-Ray and corrected my mistake of downloading it. Since then I have purchased and dispersed over 20 copies of the movie and I don't even know how many books. All because a few guys (and possible gals) had a vision to turn an EPIC novel into Movie.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart and I'm sure many others would agree!
I apologize for my rambling and bouncing around. It's not exactly easy structure and streamline a long post on a phone...

Part II is a great film, and I can't wait to see it again.
I've just started the book, as it happens, and I'm enjoying it so far. :)
