I was working at a book shop on Sundays when The D'oh Vinci Code first exploded and I got sooooo tired of hearing about how it was the greatest book ever written. C'mon, the world's greatest authorities on Da Vinci can't spot that the clue is written backwards for a WHOLE chapter? Egads! I knew about Da Vinci's mirror writing journals when I was a little kid.
My undergraduate work is in film, drama and English literature. My film degree was taught by very left-y leaning radical film maker profs so we tended to study Jean Luc Godard rather than Point Break... although we did study Saturday Night Fever and Debbie Does Dallas... interesting programme it was. *g*
The piece in question is more odd homage than anything. I really didn't think anyone in my fandom would roll with it... and they surprised me yet again. The older LoM fandom was really something to hug to one's bosom. *g*
