I couldn't make head nor tail of it myself. I watched it after work while I was tired and I don't think I was prepared to watch something so complicated. I was expecting a more straight-forward sci-fi/action film. Reading some of the posts on the first page, it seems my interpretation of it was fairly close. Thanks for going in depth, guys!

You're right. I've looked up the averages and it's well above the average. I assumed I was average, but even so. I don't think IQ tests are the best measure anyway; they're definitely not scientific, although many of the greatest minds had high IQ's (above 140).

Hello. I'm a 20 year old from the UK, currently working minimum wage while I empower myself through education. I'm studying History, English Literature and Psychology (for the entertainment value) at a local college to give me the qualifications needed to study History at University, and, despite my low I.Q. (132), become a teacher. I wouldn't classify myself as an Objectivist yet, because I haven't studied it enough to make an informed enough decision, but I have read 2 of Ayn Rand's books ('The Virtue of Selfishness' and 'Philosophy - who needs it?') as well as 'Objectivism' by Peikoff, and all three have been real eye-openers. I am enamored with the philosophical side: the certainty, the love of reason, and the faith in each person to have total control of their lives. I've not covered much of politics yet though.
