"I'm so exited! Hitchhikers Guide Movie....."
I'm so excited! I just saw that they're coming out with a Hitch Hikers Guide to the movie. Its coming out on April 29th, but I had no idea that such a movie was even in the works. I absolutely love Douglas Adams and this series. I just hope that they're able to do the books justice.
The trailer that I saw on TV wasn't anything spectatular though, so I'm a little concerned.

More information can be found at http://hitchhikers.movies.go.com/

I can't wait, April is always such a hellish month. This gives me something to look forward to.

When I saw your post I remembered that old BBC Hitchhiker's Guide series. I guess it was made in the mid 80s.

I seem to recall seeing a BBC-TV series based on HGTTG, I thought it quite good really. That was quite awhile back, and didn't get very far along as I recall. One film cannot really do justice to the whole series, with any luck it will be popular enough to continue the project over however many films would be required.

Douglas Adams, the unfortunately deceased writer of the Hitchhiker's Guide TV Series, the books, and the original radio shows, spent the last few years of his life in LA trying to get the movie project off the ground. So I'm all for this new movie, and really looking forward to it. And I loved the casting of Martin Freeman (Tim from the original British 'The Office' show) as Arthur Dent.

The original BBC TV show was funny - how could it not be - but suffered from some cheesy special effects (Zaphod's 'animatronic' second head, for instance), and terrible acting (Zaphod's other head, for instance).

You know, I didn't think much of him either... but then I saw Something the Lord Made (which coincidentally also starred Alan Rickman...). He was absolutely fantastic.

This is definitely a movie worth checking out... it was made for HBO about 2 years ago, filmed here at Hopkins(!) about a pioneering black surgeon and the doctor who guided him, at Hopkins Med. Both actors do great work, and if I recall correctly, there were Golden Globes involved.


Ohhh, if anyone needs me, I'll be in the angry-dome!

If you ever have the opportunity to listen to the BBC radio series, grab it. Their voices and your mind make a movie extravaganza.

I don't remember it being on tv. According to an interview with Douglas Adams in The Salmon of Doubthe didn't much care for the tv version. He was extremely optimistic and excited about how the movie would come out. I hope it's what he had in mind. It should be fun!

I finally went to this website and saw the trailers. The movie looks like it's not quite faithful to the book. It also looks slightly Americanized. I will probably go see the movie anyway. I hope it doesn't ruin the books for me (which I'm in the process of re-reading again for the nth time).

I'm glad they cast Alan Rickman as Marvin (voice) - excellent choice. The robot, though, looks nothing like I expected based on the description in the book. Marvin is supposed to be tall.

Sam Rockwell as Zaphod - totally hot! But where's his 2nd head? I wouldn't mind seeing two of him.

I'm not sure about Mos Def as Ford. I guess I'll have to wait until I see the movie.

Oh.my.heck. There's hope after all with Alan Rickman and Sam Rockwell aboard.

Zaphod's just ziz guy, y'know?

Arthur and Marvin had British accents, everyone else had American accents.

That's the problem with American filmmakers - they think the world revolves around America. That's probably why J.K. Rowling insisted that the film versions her books could only have British actors in them.

Can't wait. Taped the original from BBC (and, when it came out, bought it for a better copy) There's a book out I saw recently about filming it. Neat how they did Bbrox's two heads. Given the difference in mores between then and now I wonder how they'll deal with his "other" two. Oooh, I know!!! Forty-two!! Oh - What was the question???

"Tim" (I should really google the guy's real name) is also in "Love, Actually" and is also funny/sweet in that film. In fact, I recommend "Love, Actually", although it's a little gooey.
