Cameo Quibble
Posted by MattFranke 10 years, 3 months ago to Movies
"The cameos, by the way, do little for the movie, but that's another quibble." from straightlinelogic's review.
Ok, here's my silver dime. (My way of saying two cents) I think Ron Paul was a decent choice as he is a living example of Randian idealism, consistently. I was VERY disappointed to see Beck and Hannity poaching publicity, and think that their appearance in the movie was a disservice to Ayn Rand's philosophy. In short, I don't think that she would be a fan of either of them. Maybe I'm wrong, but I have a hard time imagining Ayn sitting and watching Beck (or Hannity) clown around and jibber jabber. I have stated my opinion before, that I think they are both (among others) a judas goat for conservatives that like to think they are libertarians (but aren't). They are tainted goods and do not exemplify good objectivists by any means. For those who want evidence for my opinion, please read Faith and Force: The Destroyers of the Modern World.
That's what I have to say. What do you think??

It will turn off many people who might might be reached with the overall message because of their polarizing personalities.
