The Davinci Code

How much are you anticipating this movie? Will you try to see it the first night?

Also have you read the book. I read the book a while back and it was a great read. People have to keep in mind that it is a work of fiction with some historical truths. Something like U-571 . Both are good movies, but you can go in thinking that you are going into a documentary

Personally, I never watch movies in theaters because I can't afford such luxury. I have to wait for the DVD release and recieve it via Blockbuster Online.

I haven't read The Da Vinci Code, but it sounds interesting. I hope the movie's worth the addulation it's received over the years.

If you read at all you will like this book. It only took me a day to get through the whole book. It is the type of book that when you start you can't put down.

Sadly that's what people tell me no matter what they're reading. Wink

I would read it if I didn't already have a list of fantasy books I had to mow down. And with the movie on the verge of release, I find the prospect of just experiencing it through Audrey Tatou more attractive.

Yeah, it's a great entertainment. It's actually a light entertainment, and I don't see why so many people need to protest against the movie.

She's one of my favorite actresses, but I'll see how she does in major US films.

You know that the DaVinci Code is all fiction, right?

As for the movie, it was very good, in my opinion, as was the book. However Dan Brown's best novel is, by far, Angels and Demons (which is also going to be a Ron Howard movie in 2008).

I heard that Hanks is getting 48 million or something ridiculous for Angels and Demons. I hope it is a better movie then DaVinci was. I thought they ruined the book and made it so slow and boring.
