anyway it’s a personal thing, some like the movie, some don’t, I don’t regret watching the movie because it is something like a must-watch for me, even though I thought it sucked.

Nic, the movie was only shown here on 23rd June..

But Marvin looks soooooo cute woh.

Admitedly, Hollywood kept asking for changes, and I think the Screenplay used in the end had another writer come in and change and re-arrange it once again (for Hollywood) - but a lot of the screenplay was still Douglas’ own work.

Of course, tweaking a screenplay can has disasterous effects. So would be interesting to see which bits were changed from Adams original screenplays (plural as he did many to try to get Hollywood on board).

Of course, having not seen it (but having read the books, seen the TV series, listened to the Radio series), I have to agree, concerntrating on ONE book at a time would have been best, as ther eis a lot of material in all of the books.

One of my favourite characters is the Lorry Driver who was also a rain god! I doubt he’ll ever get into any Hitchhikers movie, as they’d all be too short to include him!
