Did you like the movie? We also saw it yesterday and were very disappointed.
The Vixter loved it, but then she had never read the books, seen the TV show or heard the BBC radio show, as Mr. Vixmom & I have.
And they left out my favoritest bit of dialogue from the book
"It's unpleasantly like being drunk"
"What's unpleasant about being drunk?"
"Ask a glass of water"
I think the dolphin bit went on too long, the John Malcovich character wasn't needed and therefore that whole sequence could have been cut, the ending was unsatisfatory (and wrong) and I just didn't laugh. I laughed out loud reading the books.
I was pleased with the casting and the Vogans were well done. It was nice to see the original "Arthur Dent" and "Marvin" in cameos. Beeblebrox's head "creeped me out" as the Vixter would say, but it was reasonably well done..... I liked Slarty and the planet factory floor
I was hoping they wer lumping some of the books together, I had been looking forward to seeing the Restaurant at the End of the Universe, it seems they were expecting to do a sequel, but I do not know how well this first one is going to do and so I do not expect to see a sequel....
I seem to have become Ebert & Roebert all of a sudden.....
