Philisophy of the Hitchhiker's Guide to the G

Ever read the book The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy? Post your reviews here. What did you think about the meaning of life being a number? What about the idea that earth was made for two lab mice with the intelligence of a planet? And is Marvin great or what? By the way, the movie is coming out on May 5, 2005. I can't wait. However, it's being produced by Disney. Don't know if I should expect much...

I found it funny, but like any such lengthy ventures it has its drawn out moments. Over all, I enjoyed it.

its all bullshit... damn funny bullshit though.

Yes, the movie has no point, no moral, no lesson. It's completely absurd. That's why I love it. It makes no sense. You have no idea why people are doing what they're doing.

I watched the 1963 BBC version of the Hitchhiker's Guide and hated it. It was drawn out at every point in the movie. That's why I like reading the book. But I think Disney will make sure that it's full of action and childish songs. But I am just dying to see Marvin. "Do you see that door? It gets complete satisfaction just opening for you. How pathetic." And how about this one:

Zyphoid:Marvin, go bring the intruders.
Marvin: I have the intelligence the size of a planet and I am told to go pick up the intruders?

My all-time favorite is "Life. Don't talk to me about life."
