EDIT: Dos Mes, I don't hate imgettinowned, he just flamed me.
Besides, that stuff doesn't intrest my, SCI FI does more.
imgettinowned didn't flame you, he asked you to clarify your very strange post. If you had read the book you might be familiar with the plot and know that there is no reason they would talk in Olde English.

Anyway, I'm going to see the movie. The book was good, the movie looks pretty good as well.

the movie is about finding the heirs of jesus. They said that when da vinci painted the painting of the last supper that that was mary magdalen in the painting and that mary magdalen and Jesus were married and had children. They also believe that Magdalen was actually an apostle, and that the other male apostles were jealous of her. It is also a known fact that Mary Magdalen was not a prostitute, and that the church tried to paint a bad picture of her because she was a woman.

Sounds like a good movie, mabye I'll see it.

EDIT: The strange movie was the new Romeo and Juilet (which was impossible to understand/watch with out turning into a phycho.), and since I havent seen much movies that take place in past times, so I was given a bad impression because of that movie (not the da vinci code).

XD Shakespeare is an aquired taste. Anyway, I've heard that the book was good, I haven't read it though. I might see the movie. I find the hype surrounding it funny. Some people believe that some things stated could be true. For instance the 'girl' Pope. I sincerly doubt that could ever happen.

Meh. I dislike Shakespeare, the way he characterizes the characters in Caesar annoys me. Ex. he portrays Caesar and Antony as the "Good guys".

Not necessarily true. They were all gallant in different ways. Octavius even calls Brutus "the noblest Roman of them all" at the end of the play. So I tend to like Shakespeare's works.

Yes, but he changes their personalties in every scene, it feels like a child is writing it. Example: Cassius is a sniveling rat at the first scene, and then he's as intelligient and noble as Brutus in another

I thought that the modern Romeo and Juliet was kind of interesting in that they put it in a modern context but changed the script very little, if any. I just thought that was kind of unique, and made it an interesting adaptation.
