the hitchhiker's guide to the galaxy

ah-ha! all you earthlings- this is your captain, mouse speaking. while you may be busy at work with the experiments on our fellow brothers and sister, let me reassure you that you too are being experimental subjects in our very own wat we call as "live testing". well, its nothing painful nor hurting, just excruciating. we extract your brains to search for the meaning of the life. the ultimate question is what we are looking for. do not under-estimate our small brain which to you proud humans may think of it as tiny and insignificant, it can get lethal. of course, we wouldn't want to show that side of us to you, our owners. at least not for now.

hahaa. well this is wat the whole movie "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy" is all about. hahaha. if you're interested to find out how dolphins are linked to the demolition of a house because the authorities have to build a new courseway, and then linked to the demolition of the world because the universe authorites want to use the space that the earth is taking up to build a new courseway, which is then linked to how 2 people get stranded on a ship of real fugly creatures [probably jabba the hut's cousins] and then linked to how these 2 men find themselves in a beautiful ship with 2 new people and a robot [i must say: the robot's cute, but suicidal] which is further linked to how they run all around the universe just to search for the meaning of life, then yes, this movie is for you.

of course, there are the funny parts, such as people praying to a handkerchief and instead of the normal Christian AMEN, they go AHCHEW and the person i/c goes bless you. its funny, but on the Christian perspective, well its pretty much blasphemous. there was also a part which stated that men actually created the world. well, then again in the Christian perspective, God made the world. as to why 2 mice can be smarter than 4 humans and a robot still baffles me though. i wonder why this whole show's created and produced in the first place. it somehow seemed to me and my friends that the producers had a tough time thinking of creative ideas to put into the show. it seemed rather impromptu, if i may use that word. as if the show's made without proper planning and script- it jus didn't flow. maybe its something philosophical.

ahh- i got it. maybe the whole mix-up thing is jsut to re-emphasize the point that we may be searching for the answer to the ultimate question in our lives , that is waht is the thing that brings us great satisfaction and joy to our lives. all the jumble-mumble-crap is just to show that life itself is complicated. there are just so many things in life, and others' life that we need to satisfy. there is an unlimited need to satisfy ourselves, so much so that we always ask ourselves what really satisfies all our needs when the answer actually laid before us. love. it never fails. cliche, but yes its true. ti defeats all enemies, brought peace in the land, restored new life, brought new hope. maybe at the end of the day, the whole movie was about the love of Christ. just like in the show, when sometimes we may be so far far away from the people we love, yet we will not appreciate them until we lose all that we have. until our eye for material wealth is permanently blinded, we will never understand and see the true love of Christ.

maybe that's wat the show's all about.
this show's a definite must - watch for animation buffs.
also a show for people who just have too much money to spend.
overall, it was alright.
at least it got me thinking.
