Ayn Rand's Atlas Shrugged hopes to become the Rocky Horror of the Tea Party?
Advertisements [?]
It's getting horrible reviews and now the producers are turning to the Tea Party zombies, er I mean faithful, for support.

So if Atlas Shrugged turns into a cult classic for the Tea Baggers.....how would their audience participate at the midnight (or 4PM) showings?

Having never read the book, I dont know what characters or actions might suggest participation cues for the audience, but allow me to take a crack at it.


When John Galt appears they could yell "who's that asshole?"
When a Socialist tramples on the freedoms of an individual, they could all wave their BMW key chains in the air and chant "Boo Obama"
When a man pulls himself up by his own bootstraps, they extend their right hand into the sky and chant "Reagan, Reagan"
When the movie's over they'll all race to masturbate before the end credits finish, cry, and drive back to their apartment in their 1986 Chrysler minivan (adorned with Ron Paul, Support the Troops, and Jesus Fish bumper stickers), where they'll eat a cold can Spaghetti O's before going to bed early for work at the Circle K near the closed auto plant.

What else ya got
