>it's already been on the screen tho tom. (ok small screen but you get >the drift) yeah, i always avoided seeing that because i didnt wanna ruin my perception of the books, which ive read probably 10 times each or more. i decided i couldnt avoid this though so i just went the day it came out. >and it was good the first time :) maybe now ill borrow it to check it out. >it's possible this film isnt aimed at this side of the atlantic i dont know. i think the humor is still decidedly very british. the EFX are top notch, and they didnt try to turn it into an action film or something else that it isnt. i really was concerned about it up until i learned they cast mos def as ford prefect because i thought he would be an excellent choice, and he was. i think the people involved really understood the book and all the added bits are in line with that type of humor. tom ________________________________________________________________ andythepooh.com
