Any film that had to wait until the writer to die to make it is going to suck.
Itll have fart jokes.

Sweet, now to find a suitable quote. How about:

"Don't talk to me about life..."

Why do movies always have to have such terrible websites?

Looks like a neat movie though.

it's gonna be good, I saw a presentation on it, looks like it's going to be true to the book, tv show and whatever came before. Ford Prefect is played by Mos' Def.

WTF'er?

Was gonna say nice trailer find.

I read this one a long time ago.

Sadly it looks kinda campy, but if thay diliver half of the trilogy in two hous it should be a fun ride.

I say the next cult following is at hand.

I got the book years ago and I only read it a few months ago, I should've read it much earlier.

Marvin has two eyes in the book.

Actually, darn it, Arthur was so perfectly cast in the series it's going to be tricky to get used to the other guy.

Actually Douglas Adams wrote the screen play for this movie. It's been in development for years and years.

Casting looks surprisingly good. Nobody will ever replace Simon Jones as Arthur Dent though, but atleast he's making a cameo apprearance - yay!

The movie will not cover The Resturant at the End of the Universe; Life, the Universe and Everything; or So Long and Thanks for All the Fish. Just The HitchHiker's Guide to the Galaxy.

If I remember right, the trailer on the website is a teaser. Amazon.com is hosting the actual trailer, and then there is another one.
