A & D opened this weekend and the Teen (daughter) wanted to see it. For the Teen and I, a source of disappointment as adaption of a favorite book often do.Alibangbang wrote:First of all, I think we should be responsible to separate FACTS from FICTION.Dan Brown writes fiction not reference books.
Page 5 into “Angels and Demons†I got hooked. It was compelling, intense, very imaginative, part thriller and part mystery.
Then came, The Da Vinci Code. Brown carry forward same protagonist, the young very handsome (K-Spyesh look)Harvard University Professor of Religious Iconology, Robert Langdon. This time Brown’s imagination takes us to Paris not Switzerland (Angels and Demons) where Vetra’s eyeball was dug off its socket- - - - but, the Louvre where the curator has sacrificed his life to protect the Priory’s most sacred trust.
With Angels and Demons, Brown paired Langdon with Vettoria Vetra. Together their mystery adventure uncovered Vatican’s can-blow-your-mind secrets. Imagine the Pope’s close personal assistant, was actually his son, born from a virgin nun?![]()
With The Da Vinci Code, Brown paired Langdon with Sophie Neveu, the unassuming lady who ended up to be the “code†(or was it a pendant she was wearing that holds the code that would identify the wearer to be the code??) I mean, direct descendant of Jesus and Mary Magdalene. She (Sophie) thankfully escape the car rigged to crush into a fiery ball that killed her immediate family. Thus leaving her the only direct descendant.
And somewhere was a "hancho" from Opus Dei. Can’t recall right now what role he played, but it made the story even more intriguing.![]()
I enjoyed both books more so the Angels and Demons. And can safely say that I have strong enough foundation for my faith that not once did I doubt God's love for us. . . .He sent our Lord Jesus Christ from heaven, to die on the cross for our sins so we may have everlasting life.
Yes, I will watch the movie just to see how true it is to the book. But that’s entertainment folks. . . most of it is hogwash anyway . . . .![]()
Mind you, I’ve read first print (hardbound) of these books . . . so that was long time ago..…my memory is not as clear as it use to (senior moment)….so any discrepancy to my recollection… I will stand corrected.
