Lucky b*****d! I want to know how it was also. Is it worth the $6.00 I'm willing to pay to see it.

Ditto. I think that's the most interesting question yet...and if you answer with 42, I swear I'll....I'll....well it'll be dramatic, that's for sure.

42! Only joking. [ducks] By passage of emails, money, and a lot of convincing we managed it. I know it sounds dumb, and very very improbable, but I don't know why I'd lie. That's just silly.

Anyways, I'm basically under contract for many things, and you have to keep in mind that it wasn't quite finished, but it was terrific, to be brief. It kept very well with Douglas's vision and style. The HoG sets were fantastic, Zaphod's second head was the butt of many jokes that may be edited out [though I certainly hope not]. The story was well padded-out, but not too far with the exception of one thing: the love story between Trillian and Arthur. It was just...unneeded. Out of place.

Many of the visuals that I saw were fantastic, the whole thing was like a spectacular feast for the eyes, even in its unfinished state. The guide is like in the original- it interrupts at unlikely times, spoiling the drama of the film, but it flows nicely together. There were some hilarious scenes that had me doubled over with laughter, particularly the "plushies" bit [which, sadly, may be edited out as may be many of the jokes and scenes- the movie did seem rather long].

Ask me questions, I tell no lies...

Arg, that was also the one thing I was hoping they wouldn't do at all...an Arthur/Trillian thing....well, hopefull anything they do cut out will be crammed into a DVD, eh?

After the movie is released, be sure to tell us what they did remove (that you remember, of course)! mrgreen

Are the Vogon ships still grey? I hope they changed that.

Also, does it cover all of the books?

Humma Kaluva is in the film [the man with many legs]
It covers the first book
Vogon ships are yellow-y grey

Well, most of the first book. It sticks about 80% to the material.
