Hitchiker's Guide to the Galaxy - Kenji - 09-10-2005
Scott Hajek Wrote:For those of you who haven't seen it, or are planning on a second viewing, bring your 3-D glasses. I just found this from an interview with the director:
[indent]Simon Jones was just great as Arthur Dent, and we needed a face and voice for that sequence. We actually shot it in 3-D, so if you wear red and green glasses, he actually jumps out. I haven't really told the studio that I did that. I thought it'd be more fun if we just did it. No one really knows. But I just couldn't resist doing it.
[/indent]Sounds like fun.
Oh, s**t! I forgot 3-D glasses!

Lisa Wrote:Kenji, the book does rely a great deal on word play for many of the jokes. So I imagine it would be hard for you to understand. I think it would lose something in translation as well. Too bad.
(Sorry, I don't have the book anymore so I can't give you any quotes.)

Lisa, that was no problems in Japanese edition. I understood British jokes with footnotes by translator.

Yesterday I just finished reading book, and today I saw movie. Both were great. Sam Rockwell was perfect for Zephod. Ford(Mos Def) and Arthur(Martin Freeman), they were not bad. And.....Marvin! It cracked me up.
I'm lookig foward to DVD.....(maybe next year)
