nice revisit since i remember seeing that clip the first time way back when and  loved douglas cookie story . as for the movie at least hollywood tried to do  a hitchhickers guide to the galaxy film.  instead of not even doing any thing with the property at all.

I loved it. It was a great movie and I don't care who knows it!

The book was like lightning in a bottle, impossible to recapture on film. If you enjoy hating tragedies the Peanuts film is still upcoming.

The cookie story really got around, I first heard it in chapel in high school before realizing it actually happened to Douglas Adams. God has a way of stealing all the funniest stories.

By "we all know how that movie turned out," you mean "it turned out awesome," right? Because, well, yeah. Love that movie.

Oh, come on, the Hitchhiker's movie isn't that bad. In fact, I genuinely like it. I mean, it's not a patch on the radio series or the books or even the old text adventure game, but it's hardly the crime against humanity nerddom makes it out to be.

Granted I've only read the first chapter or two of The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy, but I still don't understand why people hate on the movie so much. If my facts are straight, the idea behind the books is that each one was more or less unconnected with the previous one. They were all just crazy random adventures with no ties to each other. So it makes sense that Douglas Adams started writing the movie to be similar, yet different, than the other mediums. The movie was fun and funny and stuck to what I'm pretty sure is the spirit of the books, so why do people hate it so much? And don't tell me it's just because of the crappy love story they throw in there. There has to be other reasons to hate it so much.

I haven't watched that film since it was in theaters. Some of me thinks that my expectations were skewed, maybe it wasn't such a bad film, and I should give it another try. Then a great deal more of me approaches that part of me with duct tape and a blowtorch.
