{mosimage}What a boring movie. Talk about long winded. Hey, Ron Howard, you could have easily shaved off 45 minutes and it might have been a half decent movie.

As it was, the movie moved with a fast pace and then dead smack in the middle, it just stopped. We were then subjected to a couple of anti-climaxes and then it was over.



Of course, this didn't stop people from seeing what all the fuss was about. The Da Vinci Code has "opened with the second largest worldwide gross in history -- an estimated $224 million, $77 million of which came from the U.S. market. The total was exceeded only by last year's Star Wars: Episode III -- Revenge of the Sith, which premiered with $254 million." And Episode III eats the Code for lunch, dinner and breakfast.



The best things about this movie were Sir Ian McKellen's acting (of course) and the new glass Louvre.

Meteor Shower"South-East Queensland residents have been startled by a bright, green ball of streaking light that initially sparked fears of a plane crash." It is now believed to have been a Meteor Shower.

"I had a number of phone calls specifically from the eastern part of Australia regarding a meteor shower that has come through and broken up into a few pieces."

The Astronomical Association of Queensland's Peter Hall told ABC Radio: "It sounds like a meteor to me.

"Most of them are the size of a grain of sand but this one must have been larger."
Sounds a bit extravagant (and early) for a Superman Returns' promotional stunt :P
