So what did everyone think?

I thought it was awsome, even though they were never going to fit all the best gags in an hour and a half

I saw the movie. It wasn't very good at all. I would recommend no one waste their money on it. I'm glad I went to the earlier, cheaper showing. ^^

I thought it was okay. I didn't really care for it, though. Half-of-a-thumb up, one-and-a-half down.

I thought it was pretty funny, I did go though at about 21:00 and I was pretty tired after it was over. Overall though I thought the comedy was pretty funny.

Also the new Pink Panther movie looks funny

Saw the preview for 'Guide to the Galaxy. Looked pretty slapstick, so I'm not going to see it.

I've seen the commercials for it and it looks hilarious, I actually really want to see it.  Especially that part where they're on the planet and those things keep coming up and hitting them in the face...  OR, where they push the button and they turn into clay models...  The blonde dude is the man from what I've seen in previews.  I'll check it out and see if we come out with the same opinion...

Saw it.  Awesome movie, imo.  Although the book was much better, the movie was still pretty good.  Though there were several significant differences from the book.  Events happening that didn't happen and such.

My biggest beef was that they didn't explain the towels much. I had to explain it to my old roomie (went with him).
