Don't Panic (Hitch Hiker's Guide...)

[Kamog]

Maybe it's time I re-read all the Hitch Hikers books... I have all 5 books, but it's been many years since the Last time I looked up them.

Have you read Salmon of Doubt? Is it good? I'm wondering if I should buy and read it...

has anybody heard anything about the movie for HHGTTG? the Last thing i saw was a release date of 2003-2004. I just hope its not made by americans. we ruined the doctor who movie we made and i would really hate to see this messed up.

Oooh a movie, i can't wait to see it now, Hey i wonder if anyone out there will make a shipset based on THHGTTG A Vogon or a shipset based on the Heart of Gold would seem cool to play with, with a speech file with respones like "We will accept a treaty as you know where your towel is" "Wop" and "Zark Off"

Which Doctor Who movie? I only know of two movies about the Daleks, which starred Peter Cushing, but I think those were British movies.

the movie was made in 1996. took place after sylvestor mccoy.

Starring: Paul McGann, Eric Roberts, Daphne Ashbrook, Sylvester McCoy
Director: Geoffrey Sax
It is December 31st, 1999. But will the World survive to see the 21st Century?
Deep in the heart of San Francisco's Chinatown, a young boy is about to lose his life in a hail of bullets. But the gunfire finds a different target - a stranger who steps out of a British Police Box.

Dr Grace Holloway does all she can but cannot save him or understand the mysteries that surround him. Who is this unknown traveller with two hearts? Why has his body disappeared? And who is the madman who appeals for help; claiming to be both the dead man and a time traveller known only as the Doctor?

Elsewhere in San Francisco, another time traveller is on the verge of death. For the Master, the Doctor's oldest adversary, survival entails taking over the Doctor's newly-regenerated body. Meddling with the heart of the Doctor's TARDIS he condemns the Earth to destruction at the stroke of midnight, December 31st.

As the crowds prepare to celebrate the Millennium, Grace is caught in a desperate race against time to help save the Doctor - and mankind...

i beleive either fox or paramount had a hand in making this. it was made for tv. it was a possible pilot for an american made series of doctor who.

Thanks for the info, desdinova. I missed that movie altogether. I used to watch the Doctor Who TV series all the time. I have seen most of the episodes starting from the very beginning with William Hartnell, the first Doctor, to partway through the Sylvester McCoy episodes. My favorite Doctor was Jon Pertwee, the third Doctor. In my opinion, the show started going downhill around the 5th Doctor, Peter Davison, and by the time we got to Colin Baker, some of the episodes didn't make much sense. (The second doctor was the funniest, and the shows most entertaining...)

Speaking of Doctor Who, there are a number of alien races that can become shipsets: the Daleks, the Cybermen, the Silurians, the Sontarans...

i just noticed there was a doctor who movie starring rowan atkins in 1999. doctor who and the curse of the fatal death.

[Kamog]

Is that Mr. Bean?
