OMG!!! I am SO there!!!

I saw the teaser a few weeks ago at the theatre. It was great. A beautiful scene of the earth floating in space while they played "What a wonderful world", then with no warning... KABOOOOM! The Earth blows up and big chucks of rock come whizzing by you head and then the picture freezes and "DON'T PANIC" flashes up on the screen. My wife was like, "What the heck is this". You could tell who the geeks were in the audience cause most everybody was confused like my wife but there was like five of us going, "OH YEAH BABY!"

I hadn't even heard that they were making a movie before that.

For some reason it won't work... it just keeps saying "download the Flash player" even after I installed the latest version.

The trailer link at Rotten Tomatoes is working...

http://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/hitc...to_the_galaxy/

I'm not too sure what to think of the music, though. I can't think of THGTTG without "The Journey of the Sorceror" going through my head...

Looks like a low budge cheap adaptation of a book I never really liked. Glad you all are happy about it. For me I might as well go watch this crappy arse movie => LINK I hold no expectation for it, and my opinion of the first two is so low that Lucus will have to work very hard indeed to disappoint me again.

AT - I think you had to catch this book before it hit its zenith, when it was still "unknown", and before anything after Restauraunt at the End of the Universe came out. I mean, really, a frictionless paint job. You can't even look at it, your eyes slide right off. That's funny.

Yay! The Hitchhiker series is one of my favorite book series.

Hmm, who are those strange characters in the movie photos? I think I recognize Arthur Dent, Ford Prefect, Trillian and Marvin but who are those other people? Zaphod is supposed to have two heads so those guys couldn't be Zaphod. Ugh, that awful Marvin with the huge round head!
