So, I'm not entirely sure why, except some perverse curiosity, but I actually watched #AtlasShrugged III &... I have questions.
So, nearly as I can tell, the oligarchs are the persecuted good guys? & the government & scientists are the villains? Bc they just want to stop the Good Guys from doing whatever they want & being Truly Creative? Is that right?
(Never read the book, so no idea how faithful the movie is.)
I guess the perpetual motion machine is what makes it #ScienceFiction? >
