I played the game and wasn't too fond of it and I never saw the old show. Maybe the movie will be good though so I might see it.

Here are some links for people to check out:

I saw the commercial too.
Personally, I thought it looked pretty cool, but weird... which well suits me <_<

The book is pretty intense I guess....

I'll end up seeing it just cause... I can?

My sister continues to tell me the book was really good and funny. So I probably will try to see the movie since I don't read.

I've read the whole book series and I thought it was hilarious! I don't remember a game though...

What is the ultimate answer to the ultimate question?

FORTY-TWO!!!

Now all we need to know is the ultimate question of the ultimate answer...

It's mostly British style humor: zany, absurd... y'know Monty Python stuff...

Ahh, yes... a towel; the true hitchhikers most useful possession... never leave home without one...

And for an example of the humor involved for people who haven't been exposed to it... It starts off with a guy getting an eviction notice because the city is going to tear down his house to make room for a highway. Funny thing is, the government of the galaxy is about to destroy the Earth to make room for a highway...
