Got it from Netflix early in January. Discussed it briefly with another fan of the book and we had similar thoughts about the movie. I won't spoil it though

I've read about 1/2 of the book, and watched the first part of the movie, and am awaiting the next parts.

Well said. When you read Atlas Shrugged, watch the movie, or listen to the book on CD (many libraries have this- a good idea if you drive a lot), it's scary how much seems like today! Also check out some Ayn Rand interviews still around on youtube. Interesting.
Treasure is where you find it.
