When I first saw this trailer yesterday I had no idea what it was but as soon as the familiar words popped up I got pumped up already.
Check out http://hitchhikers.movies.go.com/main.html for what meagre news there is but I'm certainly optimistically looking forward to this!
More good news is that Martin Freeman of The Office fame will be playing Ford and Bill Nighy will also be in it. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0371724/

HHGG is jus brilliant!

So looking forward to it and by the reviews it seems like it's going to be good - looking forward to this one and Star Wars Ep3 this year. (Ok maybe I'm a bit of a nerd)

I had to study the book for the HSC. It was pretty awesome. :D Great characters and sense of humour.

I didn't like the 4th book as much, but I did enjoy the books.

I'm a massive hg2g fan and have been for about four years since my dad got me the first book for my birthday. I've read the whole series about four times and got the radio series for Christmas last year. I'm really looking forward to this movie...I think It's gonna be great. I'm lookin forward to seeing how Alan Rickman goes as Marvin's voice...and with Sam Rockwell as Zaphod, it will be hilarious.

Any idea of when it comes out here in Aus?

I think you meant Martin Freeman as Arthur :) ... quite funny actually cos as I was reading your post I was thinking Freeman would be stacks better as Arthur than as Ford. But yes quite looking forward to this one... hope it can live up to the books.

Read all these after the HSC. Brilliant series. Marvin was the best character, pity he died.
Dude, could you use the spoiler tags in the future, please? [ spoiler] [/ spoiler]

Arthur: It's at times like these that I wish I listened to what my mother told me.
Ford: Yeah? What was that?
Arthur: I don't know...I didn't listen.

Douglas Adams is a genius.
Pity he died.
