the Da Vinci Code is a good book (haven't seen or read the others). Some of it is accurate, and some of it is bull. I just take things as a story... it's a lot easier.
Angels and Demons was a much better book. I wouldn't go see either as a movie, but then I only go to from 1-4 movies a year, and am very picky (fortunately for my wife my sister and brother-in law go very often, plus she has friends to go with, as she prly sees a minimum of 30 a year). The big problem I had with both books, especially the Da Vinci code were the in-accuracies even to the portrayal of the beliefs of the Knights Templar etc, and maybe even the inaccuracies weren't as bad, as the general public accepting all that he wrote as gospel (or maybe anti gospel would be more accurate.
But remember it's a religion of peace.
(I must admit I have a terrible habit of cringing over sacrilige, even funny stuff, possibly left over guilt from when i was a very sacriligous bible college student in my youth...I'm getting a little better, so someday I do want to see Life of Brian :D)

And he may deny it but I think Dan Brown is very anti RC.

I'll probably see it, but I won;t see angels and demons when that comes out - much too gruesome! You?
