There was a scene in Atlas Shrugged Part I (I think?) where the train is broken down Dagny is stuck and one of the workers hands her his car keys ("it's yours") so she can get to Important Meeting.
She goes and fills it up at the gas station and it's like $1,347 (or something else large & random)
I just spent too long looking for that clip. It would be such delicious irony to post it to MAGAsphere over the next few weeks...
Ah, so you're the person who saw that movie
There's an Atlas Shrugged movie? 🤮
Yeah, it's from 2011, there were three of them. IIRC they were all straight to DVD releases. nothing theatrical.
Looks like you can find them on Bitchute without the slightest hint of irony of a movie about capitalism being pirated and probably monetized on a conservative streaming platform.
No, they were in theaters. Part II was actually pretty well-made.
Oh shit, really? Like some limited release thing, or like in a lot of theaters?
IMAX and Metreon (Sony's foray into tech-oriented destination malls ... just before the dotcom bust)
