And Happy Birthday, Tay. Did you know there was actually a dude named Casey Jones?
And while I'm spouting useless information, Andy, the horse's name was "Loco" (the Cisco kid's horse was "Diablo").

The site (which may as well be the new Suprnova) is mininova.org. They have an RSS feed as well.
Thanks for that review, Petey. You really put my mind at ease. I think I might see it Sunday afternoon (there's a 4:15 show at Westmount). Anyone free and interested?

Hey guys,
I saw The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy tonight, and it's safe to say that it will not disappoint any of you. I'm not sure what that whiney reviewer was talking about, because there's plenty of dialogue straight from the novel. Actually movie takes a lot from both the novel and the BBC TV series, with some notable sets and characters from the TV series either re-created or re-used (keep an eye out for the old-skool Marvin).
I'll admit, there were a few liberties taken when translated to film, but nothing worse than something like Spiderman (and I don’t think Spiderman was bad at all). Some things are word for word from the original scripts, and other things have been tweaked to work on the big screen. It's defiantly "Hitchhikers the movie," not "Hitchhikers you might as well read the books anyway because all we've done is read word for word from the novels and walk around a bit to remind you it's a movie." It’s just generally a good movie, even if there are some changes here and there.
But yeah, that's my mini review as someone who reads the books religiously, bought the BBC TV series the day it came out on DVD, and owns almost everything Douglas Adams has ever written because of it.
