If the book hadn't been absolute ungodly tripe, inconsistencies between the book and movie might be a bit more egregious.

Man, it was essentially just an easy reading Foucault's Pendulum by Eco. I'm glad other people had problems with it.

I'm pretty sure the general consensus amongst people who have read anything not found on the Top Sellers list at the airport book store is that the book is simply awful. I read a recent review of the Angels and Demons movie and the reviewer said that he hadn't read the book upon which that movie is based b/c it would be a "sin against his faith...in the English language...against which Mr. Brown practices vile and unspeakable blasphemy." I though that was pretty clever and right on.

Avec:
Wait, did anyone mention War of The Worlds?

Kugai:
Ahhh yes.

I suppose the one good thing one could say about that film is that they got the Martian War Machines right.

Avec:
I felt it was about as necessary as all the Scary Movie spin offs, which as I recall had a whole part dedicated to the movie anyway.

satsugaikaze:
Anything with Tom Cruise in it is a parodic comedy.
