THE DA VINCI CODE (2006) PROMPTS *  assorted dialogue from the film, adjust as necessary

you say you hate history. nobody hates history. they hate their own histories.

we are who we protect, i think. what we stand up for.

that's why we study history... so we'll stop killing each other.

can you keep secrets? can you know a thing and never say it again?

how many have been murdered over this question?

if it's so important to you to stop us, then you're just going to have to shoot us.

understanding our past determines actively our ability to understand the present.

tonight, this will be our quest.

how would you know that?

you seem... uncomfortable.

you have me confused with someone else.

why would i try to run? i didn't do anything.

will you excuse me a moment?

i was supposed to have drinks with him earlier this evening.

i waited for over an hour.

i'm afraid the police arrived more quickly than i anticipated.

you must follow me, please. for your own safety.

you knew they were coming?

if you step inside, please. time is of the essence.

you have not been honest with me.

you will leave this house!

your ruse is pathetic.

will you just tell us what the hell it's for?

i've jammed my shoulder, i've been shot at... i'm bleeding.

if we are to get away from here, we must find another way.

you can start with him.

do not react to this message.

you must follow my directions very closely. you are in grave danger.

i could run them over.

i can pretty much remember what i see.

sorry for all the mystery, [name].

i'm into something here that i cannot understand.

you should be ashamed.

if you would close your eyes...

well, that's a bit strange, isn't it?

how many wine glasses are there on the table?

there's virtually no empirical proof.

that is what they want you to believe.

that's a common misunderstanding.

you are saying all this is real?

you are an angel.

i am a ghost.

have you ever heard those words before?

why are you asking these things?

i am the messenger of god.

every breath you take is a sin.

you will be hunted by angels.

you believe in god? your god doesn't forgive murderers. he burns them.

do you mock me?

we are betrayed.

did they find it? this buried treasure?

i've never heard about any of this.

this is an old wives' tale.

now you're a psychologist too?

what will you do?

it's a rudimentary phallus.

the only thing that matters is what you believe.

i thought i was going to die.

sometimes i wonder if i wasn't alone down there.

maybe human is divine.

thank you... for bringing me here.

the mind sees what it chooses to see.

do i owe you money?

care to open up for an old colleague?

first, a test of honor.

shall i serve coffee or tea?

what would you do?

maybe there is no proof.

surely such a travesty has never occurred.

your heart is true.

they are used to keep secrets.

you used me.

we've been dragged into a world of people who think this stuff is real.

do you trust this man? i hope you can.

i don't follow.

stop now. tell me where it is.

i don't know what you are talking about.

is it a secret you will die for?

well, i must say, you two are anything but dull.

forgive the intrusion.

i'm not sure how much help i'm gonna be here this evening.

funny, i don't even like history.

i've never seen much good come from looking to the past.

are you a god-fearing man?

you're acting like you lost your mind.

Current level of mental illness: Robert Langdon also had to write grad school finals before being the protagonist of Angels & Demons 

[spidernoirsleftboot]

god forbid robert langdon gets to work his normal job, the mf is a harvard professor and all of a sudden hes chasing the 'illuminati ' , uncovering the holy grail or being waterboarded to decipher some code on a pyramid.

It's really a shame that Christianity is taken so seriously (both by the people in it and those against it) because I would love to see what we could have if more people played with the Bible the way they play with Greek mythology. And I don't just mean individuals in fandom (though I'm sure they'd produce some great content and I would absolutely be browsing The Bible works on AO3), I want to see the shows, games, and movies that studios would put out. Godspell and Jesus Christ Superstar were great but we need to be willing to deviate from and add to canon more. The Da Vinci Code made some bold choices, but its main plot was still 2000 years removed from the source material and is filled entirely with OCs.

[callsign-pyro]

I'm like comfort character and it's Silas from The Da Vinci Code. Man has never not suffered

Does anyone know if there's an "Angels & Demons" (or any of Dan Brown's works) discord server?? Whether it's about the movie version or the book one..

Shelter

Maybe when your sky comes crashing down I can be your angel on the ground If you get tired and can’t go on I will carry you along When the rocks below your feet wear out your shoes When you’re barefoot and bruised
