Re: HHGTTG Movie Review (And it ain\'t good...)
 
I saw the movie today and I have to say that I really thought it was not that good. Honestly it just seemed to british humor based for my tastes. Sorry guys, I cannot endorse this movie and would recommend that people wait to rent it on cheap $0.99 DVD nite at block buster or something.

On the back of that ringing endorsement I plan to see the movie as soon as possible. Being British myself it should be perfectly to my tastes http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/laugh.gif

How can it be too British humor-based... it IS British humor... http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...ies/tongue.gif

You'll never make it in Hollywood/US TV with that attitude. The correct approach is to remove all the things that make a British show funny (for being too British of course) and replace them with the jokes too bad to be used on Friends.

Then you wonder why no-one likes the show/film.

There is a bit where they find a queue, at which point Arthur says something like

"A Queue? great, well I'm british I can handle a queue"

British humor is just odd.

Now I'm going out on a limb here but I'm guessing you've only seen certain British shows. The shows that are imported are just the ones that the local TV bosses think will work. I've noticed a difference between the US shows that Dutch, German and British TV have imported.

So I'd guess you haven't seen the half of the oddness of British TV! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/laugh.gif

I like some British humor, The Young Ones remains one of my favorite shows (i have not seen it in ages though).
