The Da Vinci Code

I watched an interesting special on (oddly enough) the Sci Fi channel last night. It was discussing the book, movie, Dan Brown's interpretation of the art of Leonardo Da Vinci (particularly The Last Supper - by the way it is a pet peave of mine when people refer to him as Da Vinci - that was in reference to where he was from, not his name, but I suppose everyone knows who is being discussed), Mary Magdalene (another pet peave is when people think that was her last name - she was from Magdala), the Gnostic Gospels, Constantine, The Council of Nicea....and there were lots of archeologists, art history experts, religious and nonreligious historians.....they all just shot his research to hell.

Edited to add: I'll be taking my kids to see "Over the Hedge" tonight. Don't think they'd really enjoy The Da Vinci Code.
