i saw the hitchhiker's movie yesterday. it was really funny and i think you will like it, even if you haven't read any of the books.

of course it was silly and really absurd a lot of the time, but that was to be expected.

one word of caution: beware of the opening chorus of dolphins. they are really funny, but the singing creeped me out a little and it led me to expect more spontaneous singing sequences (which thankfully there were none) throughout the rest of the movie.

ford prefect was probably the best character translated onto screen, but alan rickman as the voice of marvin was pretty much perfect...if not totally obvious.

ok...one more word of caution: they totally embellished the love story, but i guess in the movies there is no time for subtlety.

what made the day totally exceptional was the star wars preview they played before the movie. they showed so many different action scenes, i have no idea how they are going to fit it all into one movie. i love summer movies.
