i just watched the da vinci code.  if you haven’t seen it don’t read this paragraph.  you should form unbiased opinions.  so….the movie really sucked.  my theory is that, since the producers knew there would be a huge audience pool they wouldn’t have to actually make a, you know, good film, but rather one that basically followed the book, had some crappy but still obviously post 90s animation sequences, and kept much of the same horrible horrible horrible dialogue that the book featured.  which is okay, because it really is often so bad that it’s funny, but that doesn’t make it right, or even palatable.  and then the albino monk…the book made him out to be strong, physically and mentally and morally, which lent him respect.  the movie portrayed him as a bumbling neanderthal of sorts who was often scared, much like a monkey or an ape on the verge of gaining self-realization.  and then the same crappy ending scene in the book.  that was okay, since it was “staying true” to the book, no matter how awful an idea it was in the first place.  so, since you’ve also seen it, what did you think?  (this isn’t sarcastic…i’d honestly like to know.  my fiancee liked it, and she also read the book.)

on to business…i’m thinking of moving exclusively to blogger.com (you can see the spot, which i’ve had reserved since sept 11, 2005 here–although there’s nothing there yet but the template).  it’s much prettier, i think.  though less of a community i guess.  maybe both places? hell, i don’t even know if anybody but a couple of people even read this anymore.  it seems some of the religion remarks may have pissed a couple off…
