Yeah, I gotta say Idris's acting was probably the best part. McConaughey not so much. But yeah The adaption was the killer. I haven't seen Rurouni Kenshin yet, I have heard good things. I finally watched Death Note, then went straight into all the Macross and just finished so I might check that out next while I'm on an anime rampage lol. As far as Atlas shrugged, I have to agree... after they lost money on the first one (which I totally liked) they kind of phoned in the sequals. Gotta hand it to them for having the balls to get it done no matter what but...kind of a letdown. I was working through The Virtue of Selfishness when I started steeming and now this has kinda taken over my life haha.

Glad to know that you are an anime fan. Here is one my old review posts: https://steemit.com/entertainment/@vimukthi/why-and-how-you-should-watch-aldnoah-zero-review-analysis-love-letter-and-personal-thoughts
I had some great discussions on the comment section too.
I started with The Fountainhead and still I consider it to be the greatest work in modern literature. Atlas Shrugged didn't have the intensity of The Fountainhead. At times I was physically reading it which is not something I experienced with Atlas Shrugged. I was never interested in Ayn Rand non-fiction. I know the points. So the entire process would a process of getting fed obvious stuff into my brain.
Cool, I will check it out! Yeah, that pretty much sums it up. Objectivism is pretty straight forward. It's pretty much common sense, the only surprising thing is how many people just don't get it. lol
