Da Vinci Code

Saw this flick a few days ago. I have to admit that the professional critics got this one right. Entertaining with an interesting storyline. But overall, kinda boring. I and apparently 2 blind Austrailian outback aboriginies are the only 3 people left on earth that have not yet read the book. Anyhow, the movie was no better or worse than 100's of other adventure thrillers made and lost in the great panavision archives.

Regardless of the movie's entertainment value, what are the right wing Christians up in arms about? How could anyone think this was a spiritual wedgy on current Christian dogma. Get a grip folks, this is a movie not a scientific documentary.

BTW, how did Leonardo come to know the secrets. He only painted the Last Supper several hundred years after the alleged meal. And that "M" thing. Holy crap it could have been a "V" and meant that the vino had soured.

I on the otherhand would find it rather intriguing that someone like Jesus might have been human enough to have a wife and an offspring or two.

To answer your question, "how did Leonardo know all the secrets": DaVinci was in the Priory of Zion (if it exists).

Didn't watch the movie too closely, did you bub? :-p
