    I am just reading the da vinci code...I am probably the only person who hasn't read it.   :D  However, I know it is mostly all fiction, but it makes references to Walt and the Little Mermaid, are any of them true???

    Yeah it's really good. It goes as far to say that walt disney was one of the few people in the 'priory of sion' who are a brotherhood which guard the holy grail lol..leonardo da vinci was also a part of this group. It talks about hidden messages in his films. Apparently disney films tell the story of jesus having a wife (which is what the holy grail is all about)...and that's why the main characters are female. Things like the apple in snow white and the seven dwarfs is symbolism to eve...and apparently in the little mermaid has a copy of the mona lisa in her underwater grotto 'home'...again symbolism.

    The book is based on a lot of facts but it's a fictional story...I dunno if any of it is true...would like to check out the little mermaid ;)

    Tom Hanks is to star in the film!!

    What a random thing to have in a book....I wouldn't necessarily say it was true...maybe just the author's imagination gone crazy....and Hercules was a main character, not a woman! As was Peter Pan, and any films about animals rather than people (Basil the great mouse detective, the rescuers, 101 dalmatians etc)

    I might buy the book now, sounds intriguing!! (altho I do have a pile of about 6 others to read first...not including all those for my dissertation! :()

    hey, there were only a couple of references to disney...so don't read it expecting it to be about walt, but I would recommend the book!

    i first time i even heard about the book was only a few days ago when i read it was being made into a film and that it is similar to the disney film National Treasure (comes out boxing day i think and stars nicolas cage) which looks good. i have watched the first 10 mins and gonna watch the rest later ;D

    Have a Merry Christmas evryone.

    Ok I finished this one last weekend, so much for taking my time, ??? couldn't put this one down either. It was really good, although I have been told that his other two books, (without Robert in) are not as good. :( So i'm not sure if I'll get round to reading those.

    That's good to know. I have only just started angels and demons, I never had time to read the rest....so much uni work on. I am also reading another book call the da vinci decoded, I wanted to see just how much of it was true. :D x
