Final Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy Trailer
As I referenced the other two, here’s the third (and presumably final) HGTG trailer. It’s an amusing, post-modern take on movie trailers. Best casting decision: Stephen Fry as the book (though Alan Rickman as Marvin ranks a close second). Things I’m encouraged by in this trailer:
- The Vogons still look great.
- There’s a brief glimpse of a sperm whale reaching terminal velocity.
- The effects look pretty astonishing.

Well, that was fun. Perhaps I’ll “plan the next few months of [my life] accordingly.”

This is raising my hopes that they won’t screw it up. These hopes will of course be cruelly dashed about 3 minutes into the real thing, they always are.
