Seen any good flicks lately?

If you're bored, my husband has been through another Physics class since you last came to hang out, do a puzzle, watch a movie and talk geekobabble! Let's get together! We'll pretend the twins will sleep.

Sounds great. By the way.. remember magic number squares? That movie National Treasure had a pun about Ben Franklin and magic numbers or something. Anyhow, I thought that you should know that. 😕 Hmmmm.... scilaci thinks to self-------> too much time on forums!

Since I haven't seen either of these movies, can you tell me something about them?
I've heard that both Sahara and Nat'l Treasure take a lot from Dan Brown's book, The Da Vinci Code.

Is that true?

I'd like to point out that Wes Anderson's new masterpiece, "The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou" came out on DVD today. Do yourself and future generations a favor and pick it up.

I don't know if that's true or not. But since Sahara was written about 15 years before The Da Vinci Code, you could argue that Dan Brown borrowed from Clive Cussler. BTW, Sahara is a very fun read. Most of Cussler's are.

Sorry "borrowed" was the wrong term.
I've read that ppl say that a lot of the mystery and secret rituals alluded to (in at least Natl Treasure) were a lot like Da Vinci Code.

[Scilaci]

Since Nat'l Treasure deals with Masons and a historical adventure that uses artifacts/art for clues it is bound to have similarities. I haven't read Da Vinci but I figure they relate on those two points.

Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy is well worth seeing!

Well I am all ready to see SW3:Revenge of the Sith next weekend. Can't wait!

Ditto that!
