But people keep buying his books and seeing the movies based on them. They are giving him money to write stupid stories that make uneducated people believe truly brain damaged things about actual historical events/people/etc. As a trained art historian it makes me want to beat a hole in the wall with my forehead.
Luckily, I can pretty much avoid him, his books, his movies, and the people who for some reason find them worthwhile. However, one day they will make a movie of Digital Fortress. And that is the day I buy a sniper rifle.
I couldn't stand him because a) he clearly stole the whole "Holy Blood, Holy Cow" business from Baigent and Lincoln, b) the idea is theologically and historically ridiculous, and c) his writing suck is TERRIBLE. I keep waiting for the Da Vinci Code thing to show up at K'zoo as the Bad Movie of the Conference.
I once had a coworker defend the DaVinci Code and try to argue the points with me. It was all I could do not to throttle her. Finally I just had to walk away because there are only so many ways you can say, "You don't have a fucking clue what you're talking about."
