Everybody is SOOOO well casted... besides Mos Def. He just doesn't play Ford well. I mean, he's more the way he is in this movie around the third book, not as much in the first one. He was just so much more... disconnected.
Don't ge me wrong, the screenplay is brilliant, as is the rest of the movie... but Ford... he just... urks me.
That's Martin Freeman. GUYS. MARTIN FREEMAN. omg. lol. It's always crazy when you see a movie, then years later you realize an actor you just found out about that you love is in it. LIKE DAVID TENNANT IN HARRY POTTER.
why do people just randomly start running at the sight of huge yellow ships, they should be wondering what the fuck, realising what the fuck and then running
I still don't understand why people hate on it as much as they do. I've read the books, and watched the TV series. It mightn't be exactly the same but it's NOT a bad movie! and anyways, Douglas Adams was involved in the making of this movie before he passed and i'm sure he wouldn't write a screenplay he thought was "pathetic", as some have described it. It's actually one of my favourite movies.
You know, the more I watch this, the more I think that Mos Def is every bit as good a Ford Prefect as David Dixon was in the 1980s show. Just different.
@SunburnedVamp I reckon it must have something to do with them arriving in a pub at Thursday lunchtime and ordering 6 pints. Also, Arthurs in a dressing gown.
Love this movie, not the least because of all the tiny details, like the airplane that goes past the spaceship at 7:32 or the gigantic bits of metal missing from the ship...that zoom out always makes me laugh btw...
I love movies like this because it's like walking into the mind of a paranoid schizophrenic. And suddenly the schizophrenic is right and everyone it cheering them on instead of trying to stick needles and straight jackets on them.
@SankoGaming Douglas Adams did actually do some script writing for Dr. Who before writing THGTTG although he credited the concept with episodes to a radio series he'd written earlier.
@Galbotorix78 Yep. The character of professor Jeb Chronitis from "Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective agency", another one of Adams' books, was originally written for a Doctor Who episode that never got finished cause of a writers strike...
i'm working on the hitchhiker's guide to the galaxy. it's the book within the series, not the series about the book. content is based on the books & radio series. anyone who wants to help can send me a message.if three or more people work on the project we can't use personal messages to communicate. it would be far more efficient to use comments on a channel so we all see what is said. we will vote on what to include & i'll put each article in the same document & send a copy to anyone who helps
The first half hour is made by a genius! But then.. the genius died and somebody who have never read the (short) book go on with the work and destroyed it...
@laughingoutloud54 and we will be prepared when it happens because we watched this movie i just hope involves zombies dont ask why but like it would be fun as hell i think to drive around in a corvette holding a bat out the window and kill zombies with beer of course
@rocksock00444 Zombie appoc will happen maybe not even in our lifetime. When It happens though hunting zombies will become number 1 on my to do list and will replace deer hunting. Weapon of choice Bow n Arrow.
@Kth77 reed the book this was based on(they did a great job following the plot from what I've read so far) it states that the mere existence was a mistake on nature's part saying that the vogon race since crawling to the shores and and taking there first breaths of oxygen the race hasn't undergone one iota of evolution. so in other words there just as premitave a species as they were 14.9 billion years ago and are still one of the economic super powers in the galaxy
