You haven't read the book?!?
Run - don't walk - to your nearest bookstore and GET it. NOW. And don't forget to take your towel with you, just in case. |

Re: HHGTTG Movie Review (And it ain\'t good...)
Without question buy the first 3. Now!
Then probably skip the 4th and only go for 5 if you want a conclusion and really liked the first three. Having said that there are some good bits in 4. Meh just get one of "Trilogy in 5 parts" all in one books and make your own mind up.
Then get both the Dirk Gently books which are also excellent.

I just could not bring myself to read these books. I don't know why that is, just is.

Re: HHGTTG Movie Review (And it ain\'t good...)
I saw it today. I'm not judgemental so I can't say it's the greatest thing since sliced bread, neither will I say it was bad. I like it though. A bit different from the books and the tv series (which I have on tape). I thought it was funny that the hologram at Magraphea is the Arthur Dent from the Tv series, and that in the queue they had the TV Marvin.

<Changing mind> Upon seeing the number of people who liked the movie, I will find my way to the theatre ASAP.

Re: HHGTTG Movie Review (And it ain\'t good...)
THe only version of the book that I can find is basically an exact mimic of the movie, not a "5 in one" trilogy or even the seperate books.
