Gryph Posted May 15, 2006 Posted May 15, 2006 No, I haven't. I've wanted to read it becaues of all the calls to ban it but I'm just too lazy.

Robert Posted May 16, 2006 Posted May 16, 2006 I just got to vote - like I did on the other places you posted this thread. That will get the little wheels whirring!

Lucandrake Posted May 18, 2006 Posted May 18, 2006 (edited) Did you guys hear the news about the critics cracking up at the ending? Edit : One critic at imdb actually stated "Come credit time, I had the realisation that all this hokey, airport-novel religious hooey and B-movie plotting would've made for a great X-files episode in that series heyday." I still plan on watching this movie...., I just hope to god (even though it probably won't happen) that the movie didn't murdered what the book was or how it felt. Maybe people are just complaining about it so that no one would go see it, to many people are complaining over something that is stated to be fiction..... Edited May 18, 2006 by Drake
Lucandrake Posted May 20, 2006 Posted May 20, 2006 Do not go watch this movie if you have read the book, I repeat, do not go watch this trash if you read the book!! If you haven't read the book, watch it if you never want to read the book!!
fischju Posted May 20, 2006 Posted May 20, 2006 havent read it and dont plan to....watched a documentary that tore the "facts" apart. i try to tell people its ficition but they believe everything Dan Brown says
Chaotica Posted May 21, 2006 Posted May 21, 2006 Just the once, because once is enough. Yeah it's a page turner, and it kept my attention, but that doesn't mean it's a good book. It's very much overrated IMO, just a cheap airport paperback with lots of hype and shock value. And the characters are the most boring and unrealistic characters I have ever found in a novel: Langdon is a dull idiot and Sophie is a 16 year old girl stuck in a 33 year old's body. I found myself going for the bad guys in the book, because I found them more attractive then the good guys. The best character by far was the Monk.
L.S.D Posted May 22, 2006 Posted May 22, 2006 Yep, the movie bombed. The producer see it fit to divert from the book's storyline. The movie is sorushed, some scenes were altered until unimaginable. And above all, they tried to make it less controversial bynot connecting it to the Church ( you will see what I mean when you watch the movie). For those that have read the book, they will curse the movie.Those that have not read the book, they will find the movie boring. Lack of actions, too much talking (but still couldn;t get people to be interested in what they talked) and so on. :)
