However, watching Letterman the other night they had one of the actors on. They showed a scene that I do not remember from the book. Too many people in the scene and no sign of Trillian. Marvin needed to be a little bit bigger. And Zaphod Beeblebrox better have two heads as well. Of course that's just IMHO.

He does, but unlike the BBC production, his second head is under the chin of his original head. He flips his head back like opening a cigarette lighter, and up pops the second.

He does have two heads, but they do it in a really funny way. It's worth seeing and well done. The opening musical sequence with the dolphins is worth the price of admission, but IMHO, the whole movie was really good. It's been years since I've read the book. Enough years that I can remember punch lines and sound bites but not really the plot, so I don't know how close the whole movie tracks the book. The parts that did were so right, that I remembered immediately and could have almost read along.
