When they're not adapting comic books, they're adapting….Dan Brown. Hollywood is as dead as Detroit.

Perhaps it is becoming clear that we have an increased fear of CLEARITY…we think if positions are exact , common, normal, boring, etc. we are not diverse and broadminded…maybe, its time to embrace precise sunshine for what it is CLEAR…

lol I wonder if the movie actually portrays the henchman as a Muslim who thinks he's helping to bring down the Catholic Church, or just some random "cult" guy following orders.

I think WE are taking this too seriously. Take it for what it is, a big budget summer movie based on a FICTION novel. They won't get my $10, but I already pay for cable.

The average liberal actor/director has it in for Mormons, Catholics, and Protestants, but he has a wealth of love for Islamic radicals and nature-first Democrats. He must be an empty man. If only he’d make films about beheadings in the Middle East, but that requires balls, right?

I thought it was a not-all-that-subtle "if we could fake miracles today, just think what cons Jesus could have gotten away with." I read this before Da Vinci Code was published, on the advise of my sister who told me, "Sometimes it's like he's bashing Christianity, and then he's like defending it." It seemed clear to me what his overall message was–and it wasn't an attempt to defend Christianity at all. But since my sister missed it and she's pretty smart, maybe it's more subtle than I thought it was.

In any case, I still abhor Dan Brown's writing skills. That's what miffed me most about Da Vinci. People who'd say, "His theology is bad, but his writing is good!" No. His writing is worse than his theology, and that's saying something. Brown owns the seminar on how to write a one dimensional character that no one can empathize with.

It is interesting when these guys think their point of view is more important than a good story.

Sad but true. I think Hanks and Ron are over the hill.

But, Clint is still going strong.

Vargas should be ashamed of her unprogressive heterocentrism.

Quick, somebody go over to KOS and proclaim that Opie has sold out to the Pope.

When all is said and done, I believe the Catholic Church will survive Dan Brown's poor prose and Opie's harvesting low hanging fruit. Tom Hanks is a great actor approaching the autumn of his career but like Penn and others, his opinions about some subjects are self-serving and highly suspect. Although I appreciate the spoiler, given Brown's previous work, it only figures he would return to the same plot device for this conspiracy theorist's manifesto. Next he'll write a book about a highly placed government official who betrays his ethics and plots to destroy the government.
