#3 I read the book in one sitting. When I heard that they made a movie I said to myself, "How do you make a movie out of this? There's not nearly enough material. They would have to add a lot to the story." Not surprised that it stinks.

#6 And if this isn't enough, now the Albino's are all pissed off...

Albinos condemn Da Vinci killer as stereotype
Spokesman says film is 68th movie since 1960 to feature evil albino

Oh, damn! They ruined it for me!

#10 No real surprise, the book was melodramatic crap.

#11 I liked the book. I liked Angels & Demons as well. Not interested in this though.

BTW - they're trying to make "Atlas Shrugged" into a movie supposedly starring Brad Pitt. I liked that book to.
