Okay, you've just reminded me of the only part of the movie I really liked: The dolphins "singing" So Long, And Thanks For All The Fish. It was a really wacky idea, but it managed to be hilarious. Plus the lyrics actually made better sense of what was happening than the rest of the movie did.

Anyhoo, I guess I'm hoping that if they decide to make The Restaurant At The End of the Universe, they'll do a better job of it.

My boyfriend isn't really in a hurry to see this, and neither am I. Parts being left out and all that jazz. I'll still see it eventually though.

I liked it, and yeah the humour was very dry aka British but it was funny.

And come on, the part where they turned into those yarn people was hilarious.

Plus Marvin...Marvin rocked.

i want to see this movie so bad. but it doesn't quite feel right unless i've read the books. which i haven't and i never will.

Saw it a few hours ago....I really dug the film alot and i think that it was very entertaining. Some people are thrown off by the brit-humor but i was hip to all of it and it tickled me many times throughout the film. I was highly impressed by Mos Def in this film, him being my favorite hip-hop artist and all i went to go see it in the first place mainly to see him do his thing. He did a great job playing Ford Prefect

and the rest of the cast was great, the fx were nice (the earth construction tour was f*ckin money) and the story was deep and interesting. And how about the excellent creature fx by the Jim Henson shop huh? I admit a few spots in the film drag here and there but it didn't bother me much. Splendid flick!
