da vinci code (decoded) a repost.

i can’t help myself. hahaha!

the film, "the da vinci code" stirred up quite commotion lately. the more skeptics became negative bout the movie, the more it drew attention in, profit-wise. i guessed that the first two-week screening would be mobbed with brown addicts, people who wanted to prove the movie true, and/or otherwise… and i guessed right. being curious louie, i wasn’t able to contain myself, and watched the film on its 10th showing date.

i was generally amazed of the film. not that it appeared to me as the truth, but simply because of the ingeniuty of the writer to make such a storyline. the characters are not FICTITIOUS, but the film is FICTIONAL.

let me compare it with a film closer to the truth. "the day after tomorrow". all facts on that film is POSSIBLY true.. all forecasts on the film is POSSIBLY TRUE.. and is POSSIBLY gonna happen. It has been reported that some tropical countries had snow for the first time in centuries, but this didn’t consequent into the total destruction of the world.. (which remains to be proven)

this is the same with the contested film.. there is truth that when the bible was made, high ranking officials of the church debated on what were to be written on the doctrine. this has been embedded in roman history… but this didn’t mean that there was a "gospel according to mary magdalene".. and that she is the holy grail herself. (which also remains to be proven)

These remain to be proven, because the writers want us to think.. (or planning a sequel). everything else is purely coincidental. i analyze this as strategy. a strategy that writers use to get our attention. it produces a good foundation for a plot, and enhances climax. its a bit of a disadvantage though, because many of us doesn’t realize this.

i have been a catholic for as far as i can remember. the film did not make me less of a catholic…not an inch.

i think the reason why skeptics want the film out of the movie houses, because the film is directly questioning the foundation of the bible. think of this.. a book based on truth — a film exposes true base of a book.

BUT A FILM NONETHELESS.

if you wanna watch the movie, go watch.

if you don’t, then don’t.

god will still love you.
