Vatican`s disapproval of `Angels and Demons`

The last time Vatican disapproved Da Vinci code, people went in throngs just to statisfy their curiosity on why Vatican would boycott the movie. Will the same be repeated for Angels and Demons, which is Ron Howard’s big-budget follow-up to “The Da Vinci Code.”
Avvenire, the Vatican’s official newspaper, ran a story in Friday’s edition noting that the Church “cannot approve” of such a problematic film. The same article also quoted Arch Bishop Velasio De Paolis who warned against the Boomerang effect that will eventually make the movie more popular because of the boycott. Vatican has refused to comment on this and it also denied permission to the producers to film parts of the movie in Vatican.

Angels and Demons which is making a worldwide release on may 15th will have the same characters as The Da Vinci Code and the events in the movie takes place before the events that is portrayed in the Da Vinci Code.
