I'm reading the davinci code right now (well, everytime I visit Barnes and Noble or books a million). I'm at like chap 180 or something. Basically I found out who the Teacher is. That book is really good. - a truly gripping mystery. Just when you think you know where this thing is headed, or feel there can't be more to the story, the very parameters you were using to judge the universe by shift. The only drawback is it occasionally stalls in symbology lingo. Dan Brown obviously is knee deep in this stuff.
I heard a movie is coming out, but I know its gonna be awful, because no studio in America could resist playing up the...um...how to say it...shady parts of the book.
yea the book was great. i dont know.. if i'd say it stalled.. but it slows down the story only to explain more of the symbols..etc.. which i found helpful.. though sometimes too much.
i've never read a book that was turned into a movie.. i'd love to see how their visualization is compared to mine
Yeah, comparing my vision with others would be cool.
How do you visualize the characters? I would love to see if your visions and mine line up.
robert as a short little mexican migrant worker with a mustache and a russian accent
sophie as this tall swedish butch like football player..
Silas as Omar epps
jacques' as puff daddy

and thanks for the link
finish the book yet? it's been a week... i did it in 3-4 days.. come onnnnnnnnnnn what did you think?
Oh, my bad. I finished it about an hour after you sent me the link. ok. I warn you, i have a tendency to over analyze, because, well, nevermind why. but i'll try not to.
overall, a pretty good book.
yea i focused on the suspense... that was great.. made me not want to put it down. the whole symbolism.. i found it interesting.. but didn't meditate on it much.. just what i needed to know to get me to move on in the book. good times.
Good times indeed.
....aaaaaaaaand I finally got that PHI reference you made a few weeks ago.
