Hi, I would place it in the dislike list but for the wrong reasons: I have only seen the movie and read a chapter or two a loooong time ago and I am utterly fed up with 42 jokes so I am not going to get into it any time soon I think. I liked the reverse depressed robot in the move "I am so sad to inform you we are going to crash and burn \o/ :)".
The trilogy of books is very different from the movies and tv shows, so don't let that stop you from giving the books a try. I've haven't laughed out loud when reading any books besides HHGTTG.
