Apologize in advance for a couple scattered F-Bombs. Admin Mod can * them out if so desired...

Maybe someone who is in the know can explain this one. Last night they ran an ad on TV for this turkey and the official website url was listed as :
www.SoDarkTheConOfMan.com

Say what? That's rather offensive, with the stupid pun on "Son of Man", as Jesus is referred to in the Gospels.
So when you enter this url in your browser you get switched to http://www.sonypictures.com/movies/thedavincicode/

Okay, maybe there's some lame injoke for people who have read the book but it strikes me as pretty sophomoric. For all the protests that it's "just a book" and "just a movie" it appears to be something more for the people who put this mess together.

it’s like director Ron Howard suddenly lost faith in the ability of the moviegoing public to figure out what’s happening between frames.

That's been going on a long time. So many movies seem pitched to 8-year-olds. I don't see many, but those I do see, I usually find intellectually insulting.
