So, I read in the newspaper that the movie played for 4.2 million pounds in Britain during the first week, and 21 million dollars in the US during the first week. Coincidence?

I can't say I see the significance of the 21 million figure.

Wow, I must be lame. I just came back from seeing it and was disappointed.

That chick who played Trillian was so hot.

Yeah she was.

Disappointment seems inevitable, because I mean, it's rated PG. A lot of parts were clever, I thought, though they didn't stick the the books as much as they could.

I liked Marvin. He was so funny. I watched the movie earlier. It was cool! I liked the part where they were all yarn!

Saw the movie. It was awesome except it moved a little too fast.

Overall I thought it moved along fine. But yeah, towards the end it just seemed a little rushed.

If anyone here's a fan, it's me. I saw it on opening night, and brought my towel too . The movie was excellent and true to the series, and I think that the new stuff they put in fit in very well (except for the love story.) Not to mention all of the references, from Arthur's clock saying 7:42 to Douglas's head in the end...very great movie. I especially loved Zaphod.

Zaphod was totally George W Bush.


I loved Magrathea and the factory floor... it was exactly how it appeared in my head and I giggled gleefully at it.

Maybe I'm weird or something, but I thought the movie sucked... a lot... a whole lot, I feel like I've lost more brain cells than I would've if I sniffed glue for 24 hours instead.

Maybe my book was a bad version or something, but I don't remember the vogon homeworld, hell, I don't remember the vogons past their ship. I don't remember anything about the "view point gun" or any of the stuff about the planet where they were asked to get the thing. They didn't bring in the girl who found out the secert to happyness, and a bunch of other of the real funny stuff. I don't remember

Spoiler:
about Arthur and Trillian falling in love.


I guess my book sucked a whole lot...

Or maybe the screenplay was, uh, different?
