No, but if there were a movie called The Golden Shower, you can be sure that a bunch of us would have seen it! Walt Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

billvon 3,009 #7 December 11, 2007 The books get really dense towards the end, and sort of clobber you over the head with analogies to organized religion. (to the degree that some of the early books of the Bible are a spoiler.) But they were well done overall. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LisaM 0 #17 December 11, 2007 I'm interested that so many people enjoyed it. I'm curious how the religious aspect of it was. I hear the books are thicker into the religious side of it but that the movie softened it some or made it less obvious. Anyone out there religious and liked it? Any religious folks letting/encouraging your kids to see it? ~ Lisa ~ Do you Rigminder? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nightingale 0 #18 December 11, 2007 The movie wasn't religious at all. The magesterium is presented as a corrupt and controlling government, not a church. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well, they did say the took out direct references. But the books are very anti-Christ. Let me know what you think of the religious aspect of the book. No, I have not read nor seen the movie.

I will be happy to PM you when I'm done with the books, but I'm not going to post it here, because I want to keep this out of speaker's corner since everyone seemed to be having fun with the little daemon generator. In the meantime, why don't you read the book and decide for yourself? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Exactly why nobody in this family, none of our siblings, and none of our siblings' kids will ever see that movie or read the books. I didn't realize what the stories were about...until I did some further investigation on it. Our daughter had already read the book and wasn't too impressed anyways. We explained why that author will not be allowed in this house again and she wasn't heartbroken.~Jaye Do not believe that possibly you can escape the reward of your action.
