The best trailer I've seen in years...
http://www.apple.com/trailers/touchstone/hitchhikersguidetothegalaxy/trailer_3/

Though I haven't read the book (the trilogy has been sitting on my bookshelf for almost two years now), this trailer has definitely got me interested in this film. Whoever put this piece together deserves a raise.

Note: This is the *third* trailer.

1. Ooo... That's good.
I love how they've done the Vogons. Reminds me of a psych professor I had once.

9. Hehe...
I think you're referring to Revenge the Sith which is probably the one movie I'm most anticipating but I was posting about the Hitchhiker's Guide trailer #3.

That reminds me though... the second Revenge of the Sith trailer aires tonight during the OC. I'll have to keep an eye out for that.

12. I just saw it a few minutes ago, it's amazing
and I naturally assumed that the OP meant the revenge of seth. so I clicked on his link to see it again and I'm like WTF? :crazy:

5. Just a note to those who hate Book to Movie Transitions....
Douglas Adams himself did not want any of the various media based on his books to be exact. In fact here is a humourous self interview he did of himself.

6. I've read the first book 3 times, and never had a chance to read the rest.
The last two times I read it were in preparation to read the rest of the books, but then I didn't end up having the time to read them. Now I'll have to read the original again because it's been a long time and I don't remember enough to just go to the second book. (I do have all the books.)

7. Hilarious
I have seen it, but it is such a funny trailer. It is supposedly "internet only" but I hope they release the trailer into theaters and whatnot. I very badly want this to be a successful movie.

13. Sometimes the trailer is better than the film.
I haven't seen this one. With some of them, though, I feel like there's not much point in seeing the movie, because the best bits are obviously in the trailer.
