Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy
 
I know this movie isn't horror at all, but I thought I'd mention it anyways. I think this film looks kick ass! Has anyone else seen the trailers for it?

Just saw it when I saw sin city. it looks cool, loved the book. the trailer was like a guide to trailers you'll have to see it to understand.

HappyCamper 04-01-2005 07:42 PM

Yeah I've seen all three trailers for it. Speaking of Sin City, is it worth shelling out the $9.00? I'm thinking about going to see it tomorrow night, after I get off work

Some people find it hard to understand what the actual jokes mean. If you look at it as just a sci fi adventure then of course its gonna suck.

Vodstok 05-13-2005 03:40 AM

Did they actually do it as a comedy? I hope so.....


Although i was encouraged to see that Zaphod was being played by the same person who played Guy from galaxy quest... i love him..


"Wait! What are you doing?! don't open that! it's an Alien planet! is there air?!"

crazy raplh 05-13-2005 05:29 AM

there were alot of inside jokes to it. I got that it meant that we are easliy replaceable.

i am a huge fan of the books/radio/TV Show ... so if the movie is even 1/2 as clever - i'll enjoy it..

Storywise, I think they focused on the wrong elements. Laugh-wise, I think they focused on the wrong jokes.

I think a better adaptation could have been made.

EDIT: Fuck, they didn't even explain WHY a towel is so important.

I thought all elements were perfect. You have got to remember that it is british humor, and not everything has to be explained. Remember in The Demolishion man, the 3 sea shells.

Yeah, I didn't think Demolition Man was good, either.

Also, you assume that I don't appreciate British humor.
