 The lines are terrible, the acting is cardboardish. I.e. flat voices and poor movement. Not to mention the horrible costumes. But if the English helped you out then kudos for that since you do keep a high level of writing for it to be your second language (or third, never know with you Belgians )! *Eats waffles with strawberry jam*

BAYWATCH - the best series ever made - and, of course, brilliant actors and script.

Someone's bad mouthing Star Trek?
 They were absolutely Stellar production quality, for the 1960's... You children don't remember the wasteland that was. In the sixties you had to search diligently for fantasy and science fiction books, much less a television series... Even LOTR had been out less than a decade.

I started re-reading Angels and Demons today, I like his way of writing, had forgotten how he keeps you on the edge! History, Rome, Iconology... cool
 Did you ever hear of a game called Broken Sword, SBB?

I know, I just reread the book last week, and I had forgotten who the true antagonist was! I was still turning page after page, one of my favorite books ever!
Broken Sword? Nahh, I've heard of Four Swords though hehehe

I hope I've completely forgotten everything, but I don't want to try to think about it or I'll remember..
But I do remember it to be a thrill! And I like all the clues... mystery I read it during Xmas. so good!Lol no not Four Swords.. whatever that is:P It's an adventure-mystery game.. from 1996  But although the graphics are a bit 90-ish it's not the usual crappy stuff. It's kinda ageless If you liked the Da Vinci Code and Angels and Demons you'll LOVE the story in Broken Sword. Best story ever, really clever stuff and the same genre. Actually there are parts in the Da Vinci code which are uncannily similar to Broken Sword.. So if you ever come across it then play it! Totally recommended! And the main character has this Monty Pythonish outlook on life so it's really straigth up your alley

It does seem like it's up my alley, anything Pythonesque is fine with me! Four Swords is a Zelda game, hahahaha.
I read Angels and Demons in fall of last year. I had read the Da Vinci Code, and then decided to read the first one, which I think is even better. So, I got so hooked to his books that I got his other one, Deception Point. I haven't read....oh gosh, whats it called? Oh yeah, Digital Fortress, but I want to. His next Langdon book comes out in Fall!!! Whoop!

Wait there's more?? Langdon is in Deception Point too? I got to buy that book if that's the case and one more coming this fall?
i like it!Of course.. Zelda.. lol. I bought Digital Fortress and tried the beginning but really it's a bit disappointing so I put it away.. 4 years ago I'm taking a girl I've just started dating to Angels and Demons Really can't wait!!!And yeah Sleeping Dragon is the third game! But you HAVE to play number 1 (Shadow of the Templars) and 2 (Smoking Mirror). They are superior in every sense (except the graphic is 90-ish but a lot nicer I think. The 3rd and 4th are kind of let downs..

Broken sword... I think I played it. Not exactly sure till I see the opening scene though.
You are hoping you forgot the content of a book!? How can anyone forget what's in a book, especially one you like!?!?

Hehe, I guess that could be nice too. I pretty much remember a whole lot. I'm helping one of my classmates with math (yeah, me of all people) but things came back to me real fast and now the things I learned so many years ago, but didn't understand, are starting to make sense too.
Though I probably still can't calculate probabilities
