this movie was the shittiest thing in the known universe, what a waste of time, my date and i actually fell asleep, she says the book is better, and i'm sure it is, that movie was so bad sooooooooo bad, it's the first movie that i have ever left before it ended, save your money and rage for something else

aaron and i are gonna go
you need to read the book

bah to this movie, Ive never read the book all the way thru, because it reeked of hippie, and I didnt feel like learning an entire new language to understand it.

Abbath, lets go get your money back.

seriously i'm pissed still! what a waste of time, the movie was stupid, you get a few chuckles here and there but after that nothing. i seriously think "The Cursed" was a better film, dead serious

you can't get your $$ back.. someone tried to do that with mel gibson and look how that turned out.
the book was awesome.
like vonnegut mixed with odd british humor.
I heard some reviews of it that basically said that you need to be all about the books before it's cool for you.

haha. i haven't seen the movie, but the books are awesome. the dainty british humor does reek of hippies, but it has nothing to do with them. damn penniless hippies.

I saw that movie. I have read all the books, and own a copy of the original radio show on cassete. And...... THAT MOVIE SUCKS. I LEFT EVEN BEFORE AN HOUR OF THE MOVIE HAD PASSED. Shittily directed with retarded actors. They had all the diolauge they needed in the books, yet they replaced it with retarded diolauge that was not funny and boring. Shitty!

My girlfriend and I went to see this on Saturday, we walked out before it ended because it sucked. Waste of $.

we\'re still going to go see it =)

yes! playa haters unite!!!!

at least save your $ and rent the dvd, I think it's coming out soon anyways.

hahahahah it'll probably come out tomorrow

well i know aaron wants to go and the previews we saw looked cool...also, i have no idea if any \"diehard\" fans of the book went to see it...anyhow, we go in the afternoons so it\'s cheap anyhow

the previews did look sweet. then I saw it and it blew. hah.

I saw it on sunday, and I liked it. I read the book a long time ago and it's still one of my favorites i've ever read. I'm thinking they directed it toward a too young of a crowd though. It should have been darker, but when I saw it with my girl, there were friggin toddlers everywhere.

fuck I didnt it again. ME^

I think I';m the only one on the board who actually liked the movie! I thought it was hilarious

I don't remember laughing once during the 75% of it that I saw. Whether or not you read the book shouldn't matter especially to the company making the movies, they are in it to make $$$. I've never read any of the LOTR's books and those movies rule!

it was awesome.

I thought it was great too

no one left when I saw it. the whle movie was pretty awesome and hilarious. if you don't get it, you didn't get the book. it was 90% "high brow" english humor.

the only downpoint was the fact that while aaron was getting coffee, i had already gotten our tix and popcorn...i guess the line up sucked at starbucks..so we missed the preview for the starwars flick :(:(:(:(

the line up didn't suck... the girls running the line sucked.

zaphrod's character sort of sucked cause of the no two heads thing. Also, the book wasn't a love story... WTF was that?
the puking up yard was awesome.

ok well i went in but the theatre is sooo far from the entrance i peeked in for like 10 seconds...saw star wars..ran back out to see where the rev was....a minute later he walked in...by the time we were in the theatre...the preview had JUST ended
sigh..i heard the previews were awesome

they modified it slightly... and you know what? some of those changes were written by Mr Adams himself. so yeah... dont be hatin on the movie. it was actually really good ... better than i thought it was gonna be

spaldino is 100% right and that's what I kept telling myself as I was watching the movie. I thought it ruled. I loved the books.

it's on the tele now.
scifi channel

myth tyme
