Where's my towel?
Oh hello there. Long time no see. Where the hell have you been anyway? I've been looking all over for you. No, wait. Scratch that. I haven't. In fact I've become so sickened by your very being that I have decided to transcend this physical presence and become pure energy. That's right. Now please step back.
*Hmmmph... hmmphhh... HMMMMMPHHHH*
Fine. I guess I'll just stay here. You know you're lucky I don't have my sonic screwdriver or else I'd fix my infinite improbabilty drive and BAM! I'd be fuckin' outta here. However, since I'm stuck here I'll tell you a bit about the greatest movie that was ever adapted from a book that was adapted from a radio show and was earlier adapted into a TV show. Although this is not the greatest movie ever it is however the greatest movie that was adapted from a book that was adapted from a radio show and was earlier adapted into a TV show, and the only one if I'm not mistaken, and I usually am. This movie is however faithful to the book, and was co-written by the book's author, Douglas Adams, before he kicked the bucket, or fell off the treadmill.
Ok, so brother Bryan and I ended up seeing The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy on opening evening. We were welcomed to a theater full of fanboys and fratties. Let's just say there were popped collars and towels everywhere. "Don't Panic!" I thought, "if the collars get out of control I'll just take a towel, wrap them up, and use this holy hand grenade of antioch I brought to keep them at bay while I make a run for it." As far as the movie goes Sam Rockwell's performance as Zaphod Beeblebrox was stellar. (Get it? Movie in space. Stellar. Ha! I love myself.) However, I think having his 3rd arm tucked away and his 2nd head under his 1st was a cheap way to weasel out of doing special effects throughout the movie if you ask me. And I must say if anyone was to play Ford Prefect it most definitely shouldn't have been Mos Def. I heard rumors during pre-production that Jim Carrey was going to be Ford. That my friend, would have been out of this world. (Blake=2, Reader=0) As far as I'm concerned Trillian was hot, Zaphod stole the movie, Alan Rickman as Marvin was perfect, whales falling to their death from planteray orbit rock my socks off, but this movie is not worth $8. That's all I have to say about that. So long and thanks for all the fish.
