I loved the The Da Vinci Code. All these riddles were so interesting I always tried to solve them but i never find it out. I also find all those thing about the bible very interesting that they changed all those things to make all women bad. I wonder if there's something true in all these things. I mean it's possible that Jesus was married to Maria Magdalena( I don't know if she's also called so in English) no one really knows that and it's also possible that the church changed so many things but probably we'll never find out. Are u going to watch the movie? They say it's not really good and they didn't even gave applause in Cannes when it was first shown. but i think I'll see it. Oh an Rosie i tried the riddles on the Dan Brown side and when I was at this depository bank I didn't know how to go on so could you tell me cause it was really funny to solve this riddles.

I can't wait to see the movie! oh, I hope it's good!

I've seen the movie yesterday and for those who haven't read the book it's really good but when you compare it with the book it's bad...the longer the movie goes the bigger are the differences between the book and the movie and in the end there is nearly nothing like it's in the book...2 of my friends who've seen it with me haven't read the book and they said the movie was soooo good but me and another friend who read it thought there were to much changes..we missed the happy end of the book..

I haven't read the book nor seen the film (thought I really *really* wanna) but I was wondering is the book suitable for like my age? Early teens? Cos I'm not sure if it's in the adult section of my local library or whatever... I just wondered. What I've heard about it sounds amazing... and I *so* wanna read it!!

Angels and demonds is slightly gruesome and inappropriate. Da Vinci code is fine. Ok, well, there's a bit of description of Sauniere's body, but that's about it. I read it in fifth or sixth grade, so you should be fine ^^

I saw it on opening day...it was a late mother's day present for my mom. I thought it was ok but Sophie was a complete idiot in it...unlike in the book. I also am very anti-Tom Hanks for Langdon...he's too old and ugly. I always saw Langdon as the James Bond of symbiology....Hanks just didn't fit. They changed a few things unecessarily too...kinda dumb. Teabing was fairly good though.

yay! I saw the movie, and it was Ok actually. That's probably because I haven't read the book and don't have anything to compare it to, but yeah, it was ok.

I haven't seen the movie yet-is it something like National Treasure? Because if it is, I know I'll like it.
Haven't read Da Vinci yet, either. 43 people get the book before me at my public library! However, I got Digital Fortress, and it wasn't really that great. Standard mystery, lives in danger, solution seemingly found, sudden twist at the end. Fromwhat I hear, it sounds like all of Brown's books are like that.

Digital fortress is not his best work. Try angels and demons, too. Both books probably are for sale at your local grocery store in paperback, for like, 5$ each. At least, they are at Harris Teeter.

Harris WHAT???
Well, you know what's really odd? It came out in like '03, but it just became popular last year. I think it was like that with HP.
