I heard some time ago that a movie was going to finally be made about Atlas Shrugged. My first thought was "wow, longest movie ever..."

Certainly the longest movie ever in the planning process. I mean, a "future" world where the hero has to stop at a pay phone and ask for a long distance operator, and where a railroad company is at the forefront of technology? How will the screenwriters handle that?

Easy, wherever the technology is behind the times, make it state-run. Wherever it's at the cutting edge, make it privately owned.
