A friend of mine from work managed to get invited to a press screening of the new Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy movie last night. Lucky bastard.
It's not due for general release until the end of April. He got some goodies while he was there, the best of which was a towel with the film's logo on it.
For those who have not read the books or seen the BBC TV series, a towel is just about the most important item a galaxial hitchhiker needs for his/her/its travels. The other stuff I haven't looked at yet as he says there are some spoilers in it.
Apparently, there are some items of sub-plot written by Douglas Adams especially for the film. What a pity he's no longer with us.
I've loved this series of books since I was a teenager so, I can't wait for the movie. I'm going to see if I can book a ticket for the first day of release now. Even though this chap didn't like it at all.
