Here in Japan the movie was released about a month ago. I've read the book, great fun that was. I know the DaVinci Code fever's kind of subsided but since it's itching on me still
( Read more... )
I recently found out that The DaVinci Code was based off another book called Holy Blood Holy Grail that came out during the 80's. What surprised me the most was the amount of people who thought that the DaVinci Code was real. There were actually programs on television that had to explain to the people here that it was only a work of fiction, nothing more.
There is also a DaVinci Code video game for the PS2...

i wish! THAT would be fun! but then again the baptists and other christians would riot if you did something like that ("i'll KILL YOU if you don't think like i do!"). no, it's a lame puzzler with moderately shitty graphics that got a bad review on the national videogame channel (G4's X-play reviewers ripped it to shreds!) a kind of parallel port of the movie like you see with many films these days. the events of the game don't play out exactly like the movie so you can't solve it in five mins flat. that kinda thing...
what'd you think of it? not the points of the movie, but did you enjoy it? have you read the book? i've done both (the book and the movie), and i liked the book, it was very entertaining! a very interesting read. but the movie? ehh, not so much. it REALLY wasn't as good as the book (GREAT book!) and i found myself becoming BORED (!) with the story and not caring what's happening on screen. that takes A LOT OF TALENT to bore me at a theatre! i haven't been bored at a film since i was a young teenager! WOW. the last 2 times i can remember being bored at the movies was at the age of 12, with both the dark crystal, and ESPECIALLY the secret of nimh! geez, nothing happened in that movie until the last 15 mins! proof that you can have beautiful animation and boring storyline. anyway, i like tom hanks, but i didn't really like him in this movie (not like tom hanks? how is THAT POSSIBLE! somebody really screwed up here!). that and his weird hairstyle was really distracting. come back tom hanks! we love your work! just not this one

Yes, of course I've read the book and enjoyed it very much (the first volume, especially) And I didn't go see the movie because I just KNEW it won't be as good as the book XP I'm a bit curious about the movie, though! ^o^
eh, avoid the movie if you can. i mean, WOW, it BORED ME. i actually was looking around the theatre instead at the screen! didn't care about what was going on in the movie... first volume? there's only ONE book! =) do you mean 1st vol. in the book?
they usually aren't (movie translations of books). kill your curiosity. it won't pay off. it's not the worst movie, but I DIDN'T CARE ABOUT WHAT WAS GOING ON IN THE MOVIE! that is extremely bad (didn't mean to shout, but this hasn't happened in a long time!). usually i get insulted or offended if a movie is bad or stupid, but this was a rarity not seen since childhood.
with both the dark crystal, and ESPECIALLY the secret of nimh! geez, nothing happened in that movie until the last 15 mins!
*dies* aaah those are two of my favorite movies! ;_; *sniff*
Haven't read or seen the DaVinci code. I'm agnostic and really I could care less about the whole thing. I think it's amusing how 99.9% of Christians convenienly forget that Jesus was a real man and most likely had plenty of sex just like any other guy. He was a freaking Jewish carpenter! The whole faith just needs to get over itself in a big way. IHMO :P *gets off silly soapbox*
