News just reported that Belarus has banned the movie. Probably the Orthodox church has made a good effort...
Huzzah for more DivX copies anyway.

Jesus, this is hard to believe. The cast of Da Vinci Code alone should make it better than Silent Hill. Right? :erm:
The critics are all puppets of the Vatican, I don't know why you're shocked...

If you're being serious, then my god, you are even more of a phenomenal idiot than I've ever imagined.

Wait, I thought it was the Jews who were out to get us? :confused:

He's obviously kidding, you nerds.

Wrong. The movie is a part of the Illuminati plot.

I've read both Angels and Demons and The Da Vinci Code (in that order) and found the former to be an enjoyable enough page-turner that devolved into complete retardation in the third act, and found the latter to be a carbon copy of the other except vatican-illuminati plot was replaced by jesus-prioryofzion. The plot devices are indentical.
I agree. I read the Da Vinci code first and have about 10 pages of A & D left to read. While DaV was a fast read, it has taken me nearly 2 months to muster up the motivation to finish A&D. :tsktsk:
I was insulted by the absurdity of the third act that I think you are referring to. [SPOILER]hanging onto that tarp and surviving the fall from the chopper. [/SPOILER] :nono:

Which one,
The Da Vinci Code starring Hanks and Tautou, or
The Da Vinci Load starring Wanks and Tittou?

I have a pretty basic question about all this, which maybe has been addressed elsewhere and I just haven't been paying enough attention. Since the Da Vinci Code is a novel - a work of fiction - what the fuck is the big deal? Why is there such a furor over this? I don't think the author has ever purported his book to be anything more than a story about some shit he made up, so why are the Catholic church and various other religious groups around the world reacting in such a wholly spaztastic manner? I didn't notice the American Astronomical Society shitting a turnip when Star Wars came out, and by all reports it's a much better movie.
