Got Your Towel?

 

1. I can’t imagine that they could possibly have translated that into a movie.  There’s just no way to envelop all the subtle, situational humor.  I’ll have to see it, though.

2. Who’d they get to play the Vogon spaceship captain with the awful poetry?  Ward Churchill maybe?

5. AHHH! I love this book.  I just hope the movie doesn’t totally suck ass.  In the past, movies based on books always suck.  ::sigh:: I just hope it doesn’t ruin the book!

6. I thought that Bebblebrox was supposed to be black, and not Prefect (although, I guess if they were cousins, they would both be...but, whatever...).

   Looks interesting. May have to actually get out to a theatre to see it.

7. I caught the BBC radio play productions when they came out in the late 1970’s, and they have been favorites of mine ever since.  It will be hard for any movie to match them, and no silver screen can trump the imagination invoked by a good radio play.

   BE AFRAID—Be Very Afraid! After that Botched Afterbirth Abortion ... that Hollywood piece of shit .... in other words what they did with Robert Heinlein’s “Starship Troopers”.

   And, there’s I ROBOT. Want to see Will Smith pissing on Isaac Asimov’s grave?

   Those Twin Turd Custards could not be properly reviewed without re-convening the Nuremberg Tribunals.

10. Oh God...I remember that fetid turd that was Paul Verhoeven’s craptacular rendition of Heinlein’s “Starship Troopers.” I’m a major league fan of the Hitchhiker’s Guide, they’d better not srew this one up…

11. Goddam effing straight General, Sir.  Those abortions would gag a maggot on a gut-wagon.
    Especially for those who loved the books.  “I Robot” I loved as a kid.
