Boomhauer's Journal: HGTG

Ok, this weekend I went and saw it. Having read 4 of the 5 books, listened to the radio program and seen DA nearly live one year at JavaOne; (I got up late that day and had to sit in overflow seating); I'll have to say that it was enjoyable. I thought they handled the 'infinite probability drive' very nicely.

All in all I would give it an A- if you are a fan of the books and a C if you are not. (Let's face it if you aren't a fan of the books, you won't go see it anyhow so who cares if you like it or not)

As with most things these days, I did come away feeling a little sad. Arthur walked away with the girl after having blown it with her the first time. Hollywood keeps promising us that you can get a second chance at love. That's rarely true; or in the spirit of the movie "It's highly improbable." :)

Other than that, great movie. If you haven't seen it, go see it just so we can artificially inflate the viewer ship and they will make the the other 4 books of the trilogy into movies.
