Regina Cannot Explain It All

So Sady and Amanda discussed the upcoming film adaptation of Atlas Shrugged at Tiger Beatdown, with hilarious and sexy results. It inspired me to think of and comment on how best Atlas Shrugged, that tribute to the strength and autonomy of the individual (man…and his penis), could be interpreted:

Is it just me or does anyone else think that the most emotionally and intellectually honest adaptation of A.S. would be a generic straight-dude porn?

Consider these elements: 1) women loving their submission, 2) every long-winded speech as an encomium to the superiority and individuality of penis and its ability to dominate, 3) as noted above, the strong-dominating-the-weak is a huge part of Rand’s and A.S.’s ideology AND ALL PORN! Think of the sexy sexy scenes where Galt fucks/fucks over moochers/plebes. 4) Very little changes required in scenes and dialogue (maybe tweak a little to have Dagny scream “take me against my will, CAPTAIN OF INDUSTRY! during climax) 5) “Happy valley” ending of A.S. is dying to be reinterpreted as an orgy, an orgy of the superior…penises.

While there are so many problematic (!) things about porn, I think it’s the best way to tell this “story”/”philosophy.”

Since posting that, I’ve also come up with some more sample dialogue like “Your flagrant misinterpretation of Kant IS SUCH A TURN-ON,” and “Let’s fuck on the corpses of government-aid -loving leeches,” etc.

(But seriously, guys, wouldn’t those terrible, pompous, specious “arguments” be so much more tolerable if people were having sex while delivering them?)
