Quake3World

That was one of the funniest movies I've seen in a long time. :lol:
All these little things people say, or references people use all make sense now. Like 42 being the answer to everything, or "so long, and thanks for all the fish,", or Trillian's name. :icon26:

I've got to read some of the books. How many are there, anyway? Where should I start? Probably amazon.com, huh?

"What do you think??"
"...I think--"
*smack!*

:icon25:

I thought it was nothing like the original at all, and they changed the jokes and plot more than enough...















But I LOLed more than a few times while watching it and will buy it on DVD when its out, because I had a blast watching it. Great flick!

Book 1: http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/de ... 8&v=glance
Book 2: http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/de ... 8&v=glance
Book 3: http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/de ... 8&v=glance
Book 4: http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/de ... 8&v=glance

Edit: At least AFAIK, I've only read the first book, and that was a few years ago as well. I'll be getting this on DVD then. Tbh I'm not too bothered if it follows the plot/dialogue 100%, as long as it's a good movie, and a funny one too, I'm sold.

Cheers, man. Seems like the first link you gave is a compliation of all the Hitchhiker books.

its a shame they dropped a large number of the original gags - but they are very english so you can understand why i guess

yeah, the book is fucking awesome, i think i've read all of them, and i enjoyed the film even though they chucked a lot of stuff.

wow the book wow the book wow the book

Man, I'm really looking forward to this movie. Read the books and it's just the best thing ever written Funniest at least.

Here is a list of the books, but the list isn't complete. There is also Zaphod Plays it Safe and The Salmon of Doubt. You should be able to get one book with the five listed on his site and Zaphod Plays it Safe all in one. AFAIK, The Salmon of Doubt isn't in a collection yet. And I haven't read it yet :/

'the salmon of doubt' sounds like a reference to that scottish thing 'the salmon of knowledge'

I blame Disney.

I saw this flick when it was just out here, hilarious all the way through. Great movie

great film. the fact that they go to the 'restaurant at the end of the universe' at the end might indicate a 2nd movie? or mebbe not :P

sam rockwell does a great job

Should probably see it again...

the film was ok

def watchable

think i liked it because its just something different to everything else, worth a watch on those grounds alone

edit: might watch it again seeing as so many people in here liked it yet i come out the cinema looking like ive just gone 10 rounds with a gorilla in a leotard
