There is some argument in Christians and Catholic about not watching the movie
and being against them
since i'm in a christian family, i'm not watching...
but, what do you think about this movie?
-
well, I'm christian too...I know people that is against davinci code cause its story.for exmple, I know someone who hasn't read the book, but I tell to this person that couldn't give its opinio cause hasn't an own veredict. i've not read and no seen the movie,but I think that dan brown's book is only a story, it isn't real!
-
I hate people who over react over a story.
I'm trying to think of a way to word this post without offending anyone.. But this topic makes me annoyed. So I apologise in advance, So if your offended easily just don't read. no complaints please.
You are willing to not see a movie (key word: MOVIE) because some Religois Zealots (Religous Extremists, i.e dangerous people) are annoyed that they rewrote the Bible so it's got some mystery into it's story (keyword: STORY).
if your going to treat this as truth, then why didn't the Jews get really angry with The Passion of the Christ film? That movie made the Jews look EVIL and they certainly are not. if you are to treat DaVinci as truth, why didn't they throw a fit when it was first published in book format? These are the same people who said the movie Dogma was abusing Religion. People who are boycotting this film are very narrowminded.
To me, I don't really believe in the bible, The bible to me is as real as Dragonball Z, Dogma, Evangelion and Digimon (and I believe ALL those exist, I don't not believe in much) so this is coming from a guy who thinks anything is possible, Aliens, Ghosts, Poltergeists, Cloning, Zombies etc
And besides, why are they all so defensive about it, If THE BIBLE IS true then they shouldn't have to defend it so badly. If you TRULY believe in your faith this movie should not affect you at all, It should just be a form of entertainment like any other movie. Christians need to lighten up and learn what Entertainment is, They get too annoyed too much. You can't deny it either, Movies, Books, Anime Cons, WARS!!!
This movie doesn't even interest me much but out of spite because of all these christians, I do feel like watching it over and over again.

Ermm..
I Think that Everyone should have their own opinion..
...
But People should not try to force their own opinions upon others..
Every person should be intitled to their own opinion.. and the choice to go and see it or not..
They have free will... Everyone should excersize their own freedom of choice.

I agree with that. I will go see the movie, because I read the book and I thought the story was interesting. Â And I will go see it with the same intention as seeing (for example, and just because it is the last movie I heard of) Mission Impossible III.....
Some people DO overeact, but I know I read the book, and I will go see the movie.... when I am free....because today I have loads of things to do during the weekend....

Mission Impossible III totally rocked, You'll love it <3 I know I did.
I saw "Waiting..." Today too, really funny, I'm surprised theres no General "New Movies in Cinema" Thread.

Vex is right, basically, this is story that everyone is overacting about. If you don't want to watch it, or read the srtory then just don't go to watch it period. I think Christianty is getting too protective these days, and they're overeating alot. I would think because a lot of things are going "against" that bilbe. I notice it alot in our church, that not a lot of people go these days. I assume there will be less and less ^^; The people who are critizing this movie are too narrowminded. Now the Catholic religion is getting all mad at Dan Brown just for writing it! Geez, if you don't like hearing about then just block it out.
If they truely believe in Jesus and the bible, you shouldn't need to listien to anything else. Just keep going about your regular life. My opinion of course, but that's just the way I think. It's the way I'm going right now because I am Catholic. In fact I'm planning to go see it =P
-
The truth:
i want watch the movie ..actually i want to read the book first
and i do think that people have freedom on what kind of movie they want to watch
the only reason why i can't watch it is because of my family....
:sad5:
try to reason with them, It seems unfair for you to not see something because of someone else's constricting views. Explain to them it's not "blasphemy" and watching it doesn't make you a "heathen".
I mean how do ALL the christians know it's bad when most have not even seen it, They are merely jumping to conclusions because of what someone else said and are not making thier minds up for themselves. Go on, Try it.

I agree, I also like the fact one christian actually got an entire radio station taken off the air in america because they played "hateful" music. That man has obviously never seen those two dials on his radio.. One changes the station and the other Turns It OFF!! LOL.

My mom said she would let me watch it as long as it doesn't alter my faith. It wouldn't because I know it's a movie and it's not real. Dan Brown wrote it in such a way though, that some people have doubts. I suppose that is why the Catholic church is having such a huge argument with the rest of the world about this movie and book.
-
eh, but i don' t think i could because I too busy right now :sweatdrop:

^huh, i like the explanation
-

So I guess it was a void question, since your not allowed to watch it and even if you wanted to see it and were allowed to you still wouldn't see it.

Thats ones of the reasons the Catholic church is arguing against it but i think another reasons is they see the book as attacking there faith...

nowadays they see everything as attacking thier faith, that's the point we we're trying to make :sweatdrop:

o haha sorry i like to point out the obvious :tongue3:
they just take there faith to seriously...i guess...cause like the author himself even said it was fiction. but like if they dont like it why don't they just not watch it or read it.>.<
-
It's all up to the watcher's faith.
I'm going to apologize if I might offend people here, so please, sorry in advance.
Some people don't want to watch the movie because they feel that their faith will be shaken. READ: If you really have faith in God, no matter what everyone says, your faith will not change.
That's what I sincerely believe on.
And watching it does not make you a heathen. Believing in it is another different matter.

I sincerely agree to this statement. The Da Vinci Code wasn't intentionally created to destroy the Christians' faith towards their religion. Take note that it is only fictional; meaning its purpose is for entertainment.
Other than that, I don't think the movie will cause harm to the Chirstians' faith.
It's the people's choice if they want to believe it or not. Period.

You're right. Here in the Philippines, the Da Vinci Code is shown only for adults maybe because younger audience may take it more seriously and they may question their faith. But really, like what Ralea said, if your faith is strong and you deeply believe in God and the Bible, this movie should not really affect you.
-
Yawn... I was in the middle of reading chapter 16 of teh book.... 0.o
But anyway... I don't think DVC(Da Vinci Code) will or can affect a person directly... Mainly because it's FICTIONAL, as in the only thing true about this book are the places and the organizations as well as the paintings, but most of the stuff in the book and in the movie are just plain fiction.
I think only those who think that the movie/book can be harmful to everyone can be quite affected by this... Although they might be blinded by the fact that this is pure fiction made by a author who is good at making thrillers...
But as some of you guys stated, it's up to the viewer to decide if the movie/book is good or bad... I doubt that many people will be affected by what the movie has to offer... ^_^
-
I agree in the Philippines standpoint.
In Manila the movie is banned there!
Though, I like Angels and Demons and Gabriel Knight series more than Da Vinci Code.
-
I just saw it yesterday (here in Germany) and I don't think, that it shows the religion and the bible in a bad way.
Dan Brown had only some theories which he wrote down. Some are quite possible, and some not! That's all!
I'm not that close to religion and I don't even know if I believe in Jesus Christus as the son of God but I believe that there were a joung guy who did good things and gave people something to believe! The question if he had a wife and a child shouldn't change the facts he did or the faith in him!
So this book/movie is only an interesting theory in my opinion and if you believe or not or if it's really(!) important to you and your faith that Christus was a single is up to yourself.

That's the exact same case with Dogma aswell, They showed Jesus (who was actually black) with many brothers and sisters and various other changes to the story. Christians got really offeneded by that too.
-
Why are they offended? i mean.. if their belief for him is really strong, it won't change them.. and if they are really offended, that means it's true! like guilty. because, even if many people doesn't believe in their beliefs why would they care about what others think? Am i making any sense?

I agree with Vex Net (your point of view was well said). It annoys me that people will ban things just because they might alter peoples faith. The catholic church has banned Philip Pullman's books, His Dark Materials because they show the church in a bad light which is rediculous because it's set in an alternate reality!
Anyways back on topic, I've read the book and hope to see the film soon, I enjoyed it, it was a good story and I didn't think for a second it could be true, but then I don't think the bible is true either.
People should all be given the choice to see it and if you think it might offend you, don't go to see it, don't try and ban it and ruin it for everyone else. People can be so selfish! (I'm not talking about anyone on this site, just people in general who protest stuff like this.)
OK rant over! Sorry about the long post!

I heard the movie wasn't that good, and some people were wondering why there was all the hype about it, and it was a huge disappointment. But that's just what I heard.
My parents are letting me watch it and read the book (and we are Catholic), because we know that's it's fiction. The reason why the Church is against it is because some people who aren't Catholic/Christian, misinterpret the book/movie as real because they're not Catholic/Christian and they don't understand or whatever, and they may get the wrong idea. But as long as you know that's it's fiction and not real and it won't alter your beliefs in any way, by all means, there's no problem in reading the book or watching the movie.
-
May be a big disappointed to many but there's 77 million reasons why it wasn't if you know what I mean :wink:

That's the point that I wanted to make. I'm Catholic, and though I'm not going against the movie, I'm not going to see it. I'm not banning it. Another point, I'm a catechist teacher, and if some of my students were to see it, they might misinterpret the movie to be true and be persuaded against the true faith of the Catholic religion. Chances are my religion wants to ban it for this reason. It's easy to mold young minds, and some children might take it as true. That would be my only concern. Other than that, view at your own discretion, but leave me out of it. I have an example to uphold and for that reason only, I refuse to watch it.
-
Ah, I see, moezy-chan. I wouldn't watch it if I were to set an example, either.

Hehe, true! :D

So any box office reports yet?

Anybody remember that other little controversial religious movie that caused a big uproar and lots of fundamentalist Christians complained about it? I believe it was called "The Passion Of the Christ "? And anybody else remember that other controversial film that fundamentalist Christians complained about called "Brokeback Mountain"? The Da Vinci Code is no different from any either of those films expect Passion Of The Christ was a documentary, but it had the basic same results. Although admittedly I haven't seen any of these films (although I do want to see The Da Vinci Code and Brokeback Mountain), I seriously believe that these types of movies are becoming a money-making trend in Hollywood. The Passion Of The Christ was a big hit that caused a lot of controversy but the controversy ended up creating even more hype for the film resulting from the movie earning even more cash.
IMO, I think Hollywood is just trying to cash in on the hype of The Passion Of The Christ by creating these little controversial films that they know is going to cause a big uproar with the Christian fundamentalists because they know the bigger the uproar they start, the more money their film is going to make because people are curious about the controversial. Then, after all the hype has settled down, people will start to forget the controversial film ever even existed because they'll be too worried about the next one that comes along and then another overly-hyped controversial film will end up earning a lot of money at the box office that'll soon be forgotten about until the next money-making Hollywood trend comes along. So, if you think you'll be offended by this film and that it will effect your faith, don't worry about it because as soon as this movie hits DVD, everybody will have forgotten about it already because it's just a big money-making scheme by Hollywood because they know the more controversial their film is, the more money they're going to make even if the film itself is sub-par.

Earlier I was watching this interview with the director about the movie and how he didn't get very good remarks from the critics about it. But the interviwer brought up a very good question (that I can't remember at this moment ^^;), but his respone stuck out to me.
He said that he can't exactly speak out for Dan Brown, he wrote the book so as not to offened Catholics/Christians, but as another point of thinking. I think that that is what the book really did, it makes you think. It's not real, but you go over it in your head, "Yea, I never thought about it that way. Maybe I should look into it more." Or the opposite of that would be, "No, I've made my opinion on that topic, I don't need to know more about that."
But I really was itiching to see it...After reading the book and all. It won't change my faith, but I just want to see another person's view of thinking. After all, the movie and book are just fiction. Faith is faith, if you truely believe in something, something fictional shouldn't change your faith.

You mean they get the RIGHT idea?
I might've mentioned before that I don't like people saying saying that Christians, Catholticism (or whatever) etc are the one truth and everything the bible says is true, That's just naivity. For the church to criticise another story that may be better or more interesting than the bible just shows they are scared people will develop thier own view on religion, not just that which is told by the church in state.
That's the point that I wanted to make. I'm Catholic, and though I'm not going against the movie, I'm not going to see it. I'm not banning it.

Misinterpret it like how I mentioned earlier that in The Passion of Christ, they made the Jews out to be evil, gave them a really bad view point. I still think ones truth should be thier own and not what their being told by church so more movies like Da Vinci Code should be released, I want to see more different and 'controversal' visions, ideas and stories on Religion.

couldn't of said it better myself, It's doing better and better because of the religous zealots, so in trying to get rid of the film they have inadvertanly just promoted it.

Or the opposite of that would be, "No, I've made my opinion on that topic, I don't need to know more about that."
I think that's part of a problem, Writing it so not to offend Christians. I think this burdens a lot of stories, Whether any story is written to not offend some type of person, It means the bare story is mistruded from it's original emphasis, That's one of the reasons why South Park was so popular, It was written without worrying if it offended people because that was half the point anyway, the main point is to get a message across, whethere you hated every moment or loved every moment.

Misinterpret it like how I mentioned earlier that in The Passion of Christ, they made the Jews out to be evil, gave them a really bad view point. I still think ones truth should be thier own and not what their being told by church so more movies like Da Vinci Code should be released, I want to see more different and 'controversal' visions, ideas and stories on Religion.
I'm not even going to attempt to stop people from watching it. If you want to believe in another religion, that's your choice. It goes with the Catholic belief that everone has free will. If God wants to stop you, then he will. Since he doesn't what gives us mortal humans the right to fight in the name of God and falsely advertise the bible? I hate "hate wars." I am completely against it, since I'm a pacifist, even if it were people from my own religion. If you want to see it go. I can't stop you from going anymore than I you can force me to see it. We all have the right to be in control of our lives.
-
I'm going to be honest, people should seriously look at their own faith if they find it being questioned by a fictional movie. I'm not trying to offend anyone here, everyone is allowed their own opinion but if a fictional movie upsets the core of your religious beliefs then perhaps there's something more to it then just a movie made from (in my opinion) a rather mediocre novel. Do I want to see the movie? I do, I read the book and thought it was a fun thriller, but it certainly shouldn't change the world, not without any bloody evidence to back it up no.
Reason with your family that a fictional movie that is apparently reasonably entertaining shouldn't and won't have any effect on your own faith as others have said. In the end, it shouldn't matter what some Cambridge author or Ron Howard says but what you think.
-
whats with the reasonable and mediocre-ness, doesn't it match up to your tastes?
and i totally agree with everything you put.
-
you guys are putting way to much thought into all this...what it all comes down to is this....
If you're gonna let a story that someone pulled out of their head, in other words a story someonne made up about a religon, than i guess thats up to you and your personal preferences. Whether you allow people to inflict their beliefs or thoughts upon you is completely up to you.
I'm a Christain and I saw the movie yesterday....I wasn't swayed at all....in fact it was kind of bad :dodge:
-

*shrugs* I thought the book was fun, definitely fast paced and easy to read. However nothing about it really stuck out in my mind as remarkable, I've read better books to be quite honest. I know Brown apparently has twelve other books featuring the character Langdon outlined and if my library got them I'd pick them up, as I said they were fun but yeah, not completely to my tastes.

I agree all the hype is really helping out dan brown and the filmmakers, I hope the people protesting it see the irony! It has been on the news in the UK so much recently due to the film and because dan brown was taken to court by someone saying that he had stolen the storyline, I think dan brown proved that it was his though, not too sure!
I found it an interesting story but it wasn't spectacular and I probably won't ever read it again.
Hope to see the film though but may wait till it's out on dvd.
-
I loved the book, but people do say that the movie's not as good
-
Thanks God!!It's rated R-18 in my country 'cause you know it's like blasphemy for other Catholics and Opus Dei believers 'cause of the contents and I can blame 'em!!!
-
I was expecting this movie will rule the box office charts but X Men 3 just beat it! Oh well...
-
Thanks God!!It's rated R-18 in my country 'cause you know it's like blasphemy for other Catholics and Opus Dei believers 'cause of the contents and I can blame 'em!!!
So what if they think it's blasphemous? To me, that's like saying that The Passion of the Christ should have been rated R-18 just because it may be offending to atheists or people of different religions (well, I guess it was anyway, since I've heard it was a pretty violent movie).
Me, I haven't read the book yet (I must be the last person in the world, ne?) but I probably won't see the movie even after I've read it. If I like the novel, I probably won't watch the movie, out of fear of having the experience ruined. I don't like the book, then there's no need to watch the movie as well, I figure. :)
-
Rated R O.o wow your country cares.
I'm in Australia there was no controversy at all. No religions groups or protests. Ha ha no one here cares.
Though a comedy show did do a protest out the front of the cinema drressed as preists trying to warn people away because its a bad movie and Tom hank's acting is terrible :P..... I'm seeing it this afternoon lol!
Personaly I dont think God is going to send you to hell for watching a fictional movie. God is all love and forgiveness (and smiting) but I dont think he's going to get worked up about a movie O.o. I'm catholic and I see nothing wrong with it.
-
well,
i am a baptised christian i really dont care much because first of all, its a fiction and just because it is reknowned that doesnt mean that people are just going to throw away their own faith and believes for a best seller.
i mean faith is not just an illusion or a mere word that could be thrown away over something written by another human.
-
I saw this movie(actually, I snuck into it right after seeing X-men 3). I'm glad I didn't pay for it, 'cause the high amount of religion mentioning made me a bit uncomfortable. I also didn't understand nor care for half of what they were saying. Someone with a higher IQ than mine might enjoy it more. I only snuck into it because I was bored(and it was my mom's idea, anyway). Either way, I'm Catholic and found no offense in it at all. But the history changing stories also bothered me a bit. Of course, the only history part I understood were the Crusades, since I'm learning that in Global History right now. Watching that certainly isn't going to help me on my final, no sir-e. And there's no way I'm gonna read the book if the movie was too confusing for me.
This is all my opinion, by the way. Don't listen to my low-rated ranks. -_-

And there's no way I'm gonna read the book if the movie was too confusing for me.

:haha: Chibikawa-san!! The book is confusing! The first time I read it, I just kept getting lost, so I had to keep reading the same part a few times over. It took me about ages just to finish the book, and then when the movie came out I decided to read it again...Man, do I have bad judgement...I've given up trying to read it again lol!

An opinion is all that is. I've seen them both. My interest in movies makes me more attracted to X-men 3. But I'm sure some people thought The Da Vinci Code was better... But I personally found it boring(considering I understood nothing). But X-men 3 also had its disappointing points...
