Re: HHGTTG Movie Review (And it ain\'t good...)
I found the BBC Radio drama quite entertaining.

Well, I really enjoyed the books so I'll give the film a chance and go see it, regardless of what the reviewers say.
I saw the old HHGTTG TV series, and that wasn't that good; only the first episode where the Earth gets blown up was good and the series rapidly went downhill from there. Hopefully the movie will be better than the TV series.

Re: HHGTTG Movie Review (And it ain\'t good...)
Bah, that guy is a twit, HHGttG kicked ***, seeing the vogons alone was worth the 4.50 admission, Marvin was awesome, Zaphod had all his apendages(was afraid he wouldn't from the previews), and the "Yarn" Heart of Gold was hillarious(BUTTONS ARE NOT TOYS). Some parts moved a little slow, or coulda been a little better, but overall it was good. I think the casting was pretty good too, they had a good Arthur Ford, and trillian, Zaphod was a little weak though, his dialouge coulda been better.

Re: HHGTTG Movie Review (And it ain\'t good...)
Seconded, the Film really kicked ***. There was some great tributes as well, the Original Marvin robot turns up in the film in a few places.
It was a refreshing change from the majority of Movies released these days  |

Re: HHGTTG Movie Review (And it ain\'t good...)
The Rottentomatoes rating is 63% and climbing. I'll have to check the local theatre to see if they have it. I must admit, Alan Rickman as the voice of Marvin just may be worth the price of admission... "By Grabthar's Hammer, I'm so depressed!" |

Re: HHGTTG Movie Review (And it ain\'t good...)
I saw it yesterday, and I thought they did a really good job of translating the book to the screen. Whoever wrote that review obviously doesn't 'get it'. If you liked the book(s), don't hesitate to go see the movie.
