The little stuff that made the book interesting that was lacking in the movie had me bored. I spent half the movie debating on if I should walk out or not.
ahh, hmm.. well, I actually haven't read the book, it's in my room, though h:

if you havent read the book you will prob think the movie rocks socks. Everybody who went with us to see the movie fell into two catagories.

read the book: movie was absolute garbage
non-readers: couldnt shut up about how sweet it was.

I went to the mall today and I saw a bunch of senior citizens protesting against the book/movie :chuckles: I bought another copy and I gave it to one of them at the stop light before the light turned green :run: I'm an animal! :madr:

Went and saw the movie last night and I have to say it was a fun and excellent executed story. It made me want to go home and actually look at the last supper, and a few other things from the movie. I understand why the church would be up in arms about such a movie, but 3 words. Its A Movie. People would have learned about it one way or another.

It's interesting how everyone feels that the movie/book is just fiction and how christians are blowing it out of proportion.

The viewpoint that the protesting christians make is if Hollywood made a fictional movie that described your mother as a big whore and your father as the worst child molester in history, would you be upset?

It's just fiction, nothing to be upset over, right?

well since its a ficticious book/movie about a ficticious book, no they shouldnt be all butt hurt...they are idiots for basing their entire school of thought on a book of nothing more than stories.
