If Ron Howard (a director with an excellent reputation) attempts to make this pop culture novel into a movie, he is going to need a lot of luck. In order to make it appeal to the masses, it will be necessary to tone down the obvious anti-Catholic and anti-Christian agenda which drives the silly plot.Dan Brown's "research" which has been exposed as little more than of the urban legend variety, will be quickly dismissed by legitimate scholars. I suppose that could create the desired buzz, but I predict that the movie will be received much like Martin Scorcese's "Last Temptation of Christ," a movie that had a much more compelling story-line, but was not exactly a blockbuster.May I suggest a few options as a title for the movie:"Raider's of Intelligence," "Ron Howard and the Movie of Doom," or "Dan Brown and His Disceptive Crusade."
