Who's eager to see this movie? I didn't really care much for the book, really, but I love this kind of thing so I'm into it. I liked the book "Holy Blood, Holy Grail" and that's what really kicked off the recent popularity of the Jesus and Mary Magdalene idea. What's most interesting to me really, are the Nag Hammadi texts concerning Mary. That's the real deal. But the (DaVinci Code book and the) movie expounds on the same thread, so I gotta see it. Besides, Ron Howard directed it, and Tom Hanks and Audrey Tautou (Amélie) are in it so it has to be good.

I understand how you feel, no offense intended on my part.I always thought the Priory of Sion thing was really low, stupid actually. Likewise, I think it foolish to include that part in any story, fictionalized or not. Throw in the Templars, make a story about Illuminati or something but don't use a group that is known to be a facade. But the Nag Hammadi texts are very interesing to me, as are the texts in the Dead Sea Scrolls. What do you think of those? And what's with that church in France at Rennes-le-Château?
