'The Hitch-Hikers Guide to the Galaxy' was a great series of books but I'm worried about the movie ruining the experience of the books.

Do I have a point or will it improve the experience?

Any other comments about 'The Hitch-Hikers Guide to the Galaxy' I would love to talk about with you!

I have not read those particular books...but yes, the film will inevitably destroy any legacy of the books

Yes, it will destroy it. Look what happened to Harry Potter. Now we have adolescent creeps gracing our cinemas every year...*shudders* gonk

*Hasn't read books YET before you start*

Lord of the Rings wasn't ruined by a movie! XMen also was not "Ruined" (just changed a little) but i do agree with the Harry Potter thing! XP

*Goes back to her guild before writing a "Grovel grovel, please give me money" letter.*

I have to agree with that. It all depends on how it is made really.

a long book or series of books is normally a bad film, but a tv series or comic series where detail is not so important are often good films. not always true, LOTR was a wicked set of films. But did miss much of the smaller detail that made the books.

Iread that whole series. twas a B-day present from my sister. *smiles* It was great, and I am "HOPEING" that the movie will not ruin it. If they do it right it could be an awesome film.

I just hope the film doesn't draw attention from the books but to the books.
