Hey, Gary.
Have you read/seen Da Vinci Code? How much of pop culture do you follow? What books and movies do you like?
Heh...
As a Christian I scoff at the foolishness of the whole matter, book and film. It is insulting to the intelligence of anyone knowledgeable in regards the subject. In short it is preposterous.
I read quite eclectically--mainly history, historical fiction, mystery, fantasy, and science fiction. Jack Vance is my favorite author, but I can happily read the stories of Robert E. Howard's "Conan," Robert van Gulik's "Judge Dee", Rex Stout's "Nero Wolfe," C.S. Forrester's "Hornblower", Bernard Cornwell's "Sharpe", and so on.
I mainly enjoy action adventure films. Just saw
Aeon Fluxx on DVD (we have a big screen TV and surround sound) and was disappointed in that I thought the animated series that was on MTV years back was far better. The new
King Kong was better that the de Laurentis abomination but much inferior to the original. I want to see
X-Men 3, and I hope to go to the theater with my youngest son, Alex, soon. Of course I enjoyed the
Lord of the Rings trilogy and love the "Harry Potter" flicks.
BTW, although I mostly watch the History Channel, Discvery Channels, Science Channel, A&E, and the Military Channel, I do usually watch Fox News and have been hooked on
24, watched the last two series and intend to tune in next January when the show airs again with new episodes. I tune into the SC Channel now and then but the new
Dr. Who hasn't grabbed me.
Cheers,
Gary
