Ive just seen the trailer to this and it looks amazing. I read the book for the Da Vinci Code and when the movie came around I was dissapointed at parts being missed out and thought better direction could have made it much more powerful. The sequel is out on the 15th May.

 

Anyone read the book for this, planning to watch it?

I read the book last month - it is way better than the Da Vinci Code and the storyline is superb.

 

Looked the trailer up a few weeks ago and it looks pretty faithful to the book.

I read the book round about the time that The Da Vinci Code came out as i was waiting to read The DVC but the library only had Angels and Demons and i liked it a LOT. Its one of the first books ive read from start to finish for years on my own free will :lol: Although i have yet to see/read The DVC, im looking forward to seeing this and how they managed to turn this into a sequel when i believe the book is a prequel?

Yes it is a prequel in so much that it is set before the DVC - ie the first Langdon book. The third Langdon book is due out in December, but they are not like a trilogy, just have the same lead character.

Ooh I much preferred the book of this to the Da Vinci Code, so I can't wait for the film! :wub:

The trailer looks brilliant, too.

My bro got the book too. :D

Will definitely watch this one as I liked the Da Vinci Code movie. :D

This looks so much better than DVC, I've read the book a long time ago, I need to read the book again before I go and see the film, I'm looking forward to seeing it, the trailer for it looks excellent.
Yep read it and adore it. Very excited for the Movie, I just hope they dont mess it up in the same way as Da Vinci Code. Which is probably the only Tom Hanks Film I've seen and not enjoyed.

The Da Vinci Code as a film was a total shambles.... Acting from Tom Hanks was not particularly good, and probably the only time when it actually sprang into life was when Ian McKellen was on the screen.. Hopefully Angels and Demons doesn't have the same director.....

I saw the trailer earlier on Ch10 and it looks brill.

 

I shall be watching and reading the book after like i did with the DVC

:wacko: Try doing it the other way round and maybe you'll have a better experience.

 

They should forget about Angels and Demons and just make Deception Point into a TV series. That's the best Dan Brown book and would make a brilliant 24-style programme.

Nah, Angels and Demons is going to be a great film - it is his best book so far, imo.

 

Deception Point is good, I think you have a point about it beinga good TV mini-series.

Nah, i really enjoyed DVC coz i hadn't read the book, so i didn't sit and go. Oh that wasn't in the book, and he didn't do it that way in the book etc. kinda like Harry Potter.

 

So i shall see this read the book then watch it again.

 

Friends of mine who had read DVC didn't like to movie too much, i loved it, and i guessed Apple before the last clues were uncovered etc.

I've read both books but only saw TDC for the first time on Sunday on TV. Will go to see Angels And Demons as the book I thought was the better of the two.

MUCH better than the Da Vinci Code, although i'm not sure whether I like Dan Brown's twists. I'm sure they come across much better in the books, but in the films they seem a bit forced? Anyway it was a good film, and although its quite long it keeps you interested, although I will admit towards the end I was getting a bit bored!

 

7.5/10

Saw this earlier, Loved it :wub:

 

I have yet to read to book, so it won't be as awesome 2nd time round of course.

 

Loved the bit on CERN :heart:

I'm sooooo looking forward to seeing this movie! It looks great and I love this type of movies.

I hope it comes to my town soon.
