It's got a one-headed Zaphod and a black Ford Prefect but on the other hand it's got a Trillian which won't create an international zeitgeist of vomit like the girl they picked to play her in the TV show.

The Hitch Hiker's Guide to the Galaxy will be the most important film released in our lifetime. The very thought of someone not dropping everything to watch it opening night disgusts me and will probably serve as the final straw that causes me to shut this shithole down once and for all, as soon as I see some of your replies that indicate you are not even planning on watching it, much less opening night.

[url=http://hitchhikers.movies.go.com/main.html]Here's a link to the first trailer. Its resolution is nigh laughable, so we'll try to get a better link in the near future.

If I have to bribe the lot of you with the MP3s of the radio show I will gladly do just that.

Must have 2 headed and 3 armed Zaphod or movie is automaticlly qualified as based-on genre. I also want to see the hyperintelligent shade of the color blue...

Yeah, one-headed Zaphod is totally fucking lame. It's like taking Glorfindel out of the Lord of the Rings. I'm still gonna watch it, thoguh, in theaters, immediately, and then I will buy the DVD. These are foregone conclusions. Qualifier: Probably!

Yes, I believe he has all three. I think! He got one fitted to help with his ski-boxing.
