The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy - Review
cinemablend.com ^ | 4/28/2005 | Joshua Tyler

Posted on 04/28/2005 10:44:46 AM PDT by js1138

Starring: Martin Freeman, Sam Rockwell, Mos Def, Zooey Deschanel, Bill Nighy, Anna Chancellor, John Malkovich, Warwick Davis, Alan Rickman (voice), Stephen Fry (voice)

It opens with a perfectly choreographed dolphin musical number, and ends with the disembodied head of deceased author Douglas Adams. This is the long awaited adaptation of his novel, “The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy,” and as the dolphins flawlessly perform their rendition of “So Long and Thanks for All the Fish” you’ll realize you’re in for one hell of a ride. Don’t panic. It only gets a little weirder.

I did that once, and I got my a$$ chewed out for doing it.

I don't know about you, but I and the rest of the "formerly Young Republicans" crew of mine are busily arranging our schedules for what looks like considerable hilarity this weekend. After which, we will nip off to Milliways for a bite to eat...

I think it's very fitting that the movie is opening while I'm 42.
