why exactly, may i ask, were you disappointed? he is an excellent actor. i think hell do quite well, and im rather curious to see what hell bring to the part. i really hope you arent disappointed for a...discriminatory sort of reason..


No, I couldn't care less that he's black, I'm insulted that you implied that. I happen to think he's not a good actor and I'm rather picky about it because Ford's one of my favorite characters.

Yay! Alan Rickman as the voice of Marvin! He's good as that kind of character.

I agree with you, Hiei_no_miko. I was quite disappointed. It's not a racist point of view, nor do I doubt his acting abilities. It's just, I really really can't picture a black Ford. It's just not how I ever pictured him.

I know what you mean - I mean, the one thing you can rely on in this universe is that Ford will always have red hair. 'Course in the illustrated Guide, Zaphod was black, but also kinda cool-looking, and they explained away the discrepancy with the text with some amusing footnote about some mad human illness...

I'm most afraid that I won't like the movie because I much prefer the images in my head that have been serving me well for years, thankyouverymuch. I mean, look at the movie Marvin! He's too damn cute! crying (Alan Rickman though. Yaaay. 3nodding )

...and then the internet will be awash with movie fanart of Ford and no one will remember what he looks like anymore! gonk

Is this for everywhere, or just certain places?!
I know I heard that this applies to Australia..but I didn't hear about anywhere else.

Well, all I can tell you is that where it used to say "May 6 2005" on the offical movie site, it now says "April 29 2005"

Perhaps I am assuming too much?

eek A movie release being pushed UP?! I don't believe it!

...so, who are they avoiding competition with? wink Or perhaps it's to compete with someone?

Maybe there's rabid fanboys holding the movie execs hostage? surprised
