Are there any references to the last two movies?


In Angels & Demons they worked in a photo of Sophie and vague allusions to a 'past episode'... anything like that here?

reply

I don't remember seeing any references to them.

There were none at all the. The film kinda stood on its own

reply

Nope, i'm pretty sure this one was standalone from the other 2

What photo? I just watched A&D few days ago and the only reference to TDVC was during the conversation between Langdon and the guy from the Vatican police when he mentions about Langdon being involved in certain "church secrets" in the past.

reply

It's incredibly brief. Rewatch the scene where the fellow from the Vatican tells Langdon four cardinals have been kidnapped. At the very beginning of that scene, you get a brief glimpse of his bookshelves. In fairness, it is not entirely clear that it is Audrey Tautou's face, but then I've heard people say it's her since the film came out. Perhaps the face is more obvious on a big screen.

I don't think there are really any references to the previous films, but I wonder when Langdon said, "She married someone else", and things falling apart if there not taken care of, I wonder if that could have been a reference to Sophie.

No, that was Elizabeth.

After watching the movie again, I realized that. I do wish though, that more had happened with Robert and Sophie at the end of The Da Vinci Code.

Da Vinci Code spoiler:

It was left kind of open ended, wasn't it. "Okay, thanks, I'm going to go off and be the descendent of Jesus and all that, see how it works, no walking on water or anything but I suppose there are more important things to do" ... and then they never talk again.

do the books follow each other? do you have to read them in order to know what's going on because i don't feel that way with the movies.

reply

I haven't read any of the books, nor do I intend to, but I've followed the films just fine.

I've read all of the Robert Langdon books except for Angels & Demons (which by the novels' timeline, is actually Robert's first adventure) and, no, they're not connected in any way.

As others have said no you don't have to read them in their order of release. I don't think the books make references to earlier ones. The only thing I sort of recall is I thought the movie of The Da Vinci Code indicates it is Langdon's "first" case/adventure, where with the books it was actually the second case.

reply

The closest thing I saw that could have been a reference to the Devinci Code was when he was trying to figure out a writing that was probably an anagram and he said "I used to be good at this."

reply

The ending music while the credits were rolling was the Tomb of Isaac Newton motif from the Da Vinci Code. I loved that music.
