Fandom. It ruins everything beautiful and good.
No...it doesn't ruin...it castrates. It dilutes it to the view of the public, by making it seem like something warm and fuzzy and soft. Then it's just another point of view, just another opinion. It's so gay.
Fandom turns enthusiasm into near cultishness.
Make it stop.
It's what casts Angelina Jolie as Dagny Taggart. It's what makes people happily interested in hearing that Brad Pitt wants to play Howard Roark. These people DON'T live up to them!
They're fictional characters, but they're possible...but THOSE people shouldn't portray them. I don't want the prettiest faces playing the greatest heroes... I want the BEST actors...I want the BEST people. Jolie goes against everything about Atlas Shrugged, and so does fucking Brad Pitt. Fuck him if he wants to play Roark, or Rearden, or Galt. He doesn't deserve it. And fuck Angelina Jolie. She's a stupid bitch.
It's not fandom making me write this...just an intense...REALLY INTENSE desire for the integrity of this book to remain in the film. I don't want to see it mutilated by these merely beautiful faces.
Fandom is the thing that takes Objectivism ideals, and tries to put it on the glossy cover of a tabloid magazine. "OOO, look it's JIM CARREY! He's SERIOUS about PHILOSOPHY! OOO, ROBERT LOWE!" It's the same shit, just more pretentious. I HATE you faggots! ! FUCK YOU ALL! ! ! !
