I feel like I've already seen this film and it's not even out yet.

Okay, the red band trailer is pretty funny.  And very not safe for work.

Oh. Thanks.  I had never heard the term until recently and now it seems to be popping up everywhere I turn.

If I had seen this post before I would have commented that I went to see this. It was ok. The DVD release was renamed to simply Zack and Miri. I guess the word "porno" was too risque for mainstream retail.

Lots of spandex in the future.  I'm not looking forward to it.

Now I want to play with youuuuuu.

Timothy was completely creeped out, but also mad at the deviations from the book.  It was a hard lesson for him to learn, that the book is always better.

I have always felt, and will always feel, that this is a stupid argument.  Apples and oranges.

Well that's what I told him, basically.

I told him to let the book go, because there's no way to pack all the detail from a book into a movie.  It's never going to happen so just enjoy it for what it is.

He said the movie was way creepier.

For contrast, you should have him read one of king's short stories that was turned into a movie.  Maybe Trucks and Maximum Overdrive, because the soundtrack is awesome.  I'm going to put that one in the other thread.

Maximum Overdrive is awesome.  Who wouldn't love Lisa Simpson whining and Emilio Estevez taking on rogue trucks with the road twitch set to the dulcet tones of AC/DC?

DaVinci Code

One of the -worst- written books I've ever opened.  Movie was CONSIDERABLY better.

I liked that book when I read it several years ago.

Of course, I read it as fiction, rather than some sort of piece of investigative journalism, so that might have something to do with it.  A lot of people gave that book way too much credit.

This.  They're fun puzzle books.  That's about all they are.

The idea is fine.

The writing is horrendous.

Same with Twilight - which is sad considering the movie wasn't terribly fantastic.

I really didn't like Tom Hanks's acting in DaVinci Code.  That's what really bugged me about that movie, and I read the book first too.  I usually enjoy his acting, but it was so dull, and emotionless for him.  Chicks with french accents are hot, and she was probably the most enjoyable thing to watch in that movie for me.

The DaVinci Code was an interesting idea, but Dan Brown is a schlub of a writer.  Was much better in film format.

I agree with Bish here.  The book was fine and fairly interesting for the first 60% of it.  And then the author seemingly got really sleepy or something and phoned in the rest.  Laziest ending ever.  Pissed me off.  At least the movie had a bit of likeability.

We watched Zack and Miri tonight.  What a bunch of fun!  I enjoyed it.  And it made me teary.  Of course, I also cry at commercials because I'm a huge sap, but still.  I liked it.

The DaVinci Code was all hype.  A passable novel, but nowhere near worth all the news about it.  It wasn't even an original idea.  There were a number of fiction and nonfiction works similar that came out before it. All the news made the book a bestseller, not its own merits.  When it first came out, we looked at it and shrugged.  I got a galley copy of it, read it and threw it aside.  Nothing special to it.  Then the news and complaining started, and off it went.

What was really tiresome was listening to people rave about it as "the best book ever" followed by people ranting that it was going to destroy Christianity.  Day after day.  We grew to hate that damn thing....

One of my main complaints about the book is the horrible horrible prose.
