Hitchhiker's Guide- SO good...

I watched it today... I already love it. First film i've laughed at in ages. And yet, indeed I am an old-timey book reader, and missed the odd line ("the diodes, all down one side...") but appreciated the new material.

So happy, will see again many times i'm sure.

Good to hear. I have passes to go see it tonight at the first showing and I was a bit nervous it wouldnt be good.

But either way, the theater is giving free pan galactic gargle blasters with price of admission!

i am all excited to go see it.

OOOo i cant wait to see it.

Going tomorrow!!!

I heard bad things...

Don't tell me there are good things...

Lowered expectations = possibility of pleasant surprise.

*sticks fingers in ears and sings lalalalalala*

I've had a friend's copy of that book for about 12 or 13 years now and I have never read it. I definitely want to read it before, if ever, I see the movie.

double mint, double mint, Gum!

I'm going tomorrow.

Read it, jerk face.

Mos Def. That is all.

YEAH! Or I'll take back my testimonial.

I'm going tomorrow with a group of people who are giving me endless shit because I'm bringing my towel.

Screw them.

very funny movie

Holy shit... PLEASE tell me they're giving those out!

Covet, covet, covet...

Movies spoil good books.

Irony is that under Stalin movies flourished. religion is the opium, but give the people movies adn we will conquor minds..read the book and let it go..nazi germany and stalin russia no books, but lots o film. think about it....

Yeah, Caesar did well with his matinees of Dude, Where's My Car?

Unbelievably, there were no midnight showings in Chicago that I could find, or else that is where I would be at the moment. So a matinee tomorrow before work it shall be.

I have incredibly low expectations, but I am hoping to be wrong as fuck.

bread and circus, my friend. bread and circus...just replace movies with the Colosium and you got something. also Rome banned "books" x cept for the higher ups...

Just got back. Loved it. Loved it so very much.

And yes I brought my towel.


And won one as well. Pictures soon.

Before Nazi takeover, Berlin theatre cabaret thrived. We can trace any cultural downfal to the peoples' love of the local entertainment. Entertainment not counting books...

As I mentioned in the Douglas Adams group where you all should be talking about this, I have mixed feelings about it. I liked some of it, but was pretty indifferent to the rest; especially the new and changed stuff. I didn't find it all that interesting, and it didn't seem much like Hitchhiker's Guide after halfway through the movie. Meh.

I have tickets for the first three shows here. Though I still have nearly 8 hours left to wait.

I will be going in pajamas and bathrobe...or my Arthur Dent attire as I usually call it...(even entered a costume contest once with it and got more applause than anyone else) and of course, my towel. (I swear there used to be a towel around here with dolphins on it...gotta find it)

As it stands I plan on trying to divide the theater into three sections.

1. Towels
2. Non-Towels
3. Those without towels, but know where their towel is.
