I first saw the new Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy movie quite awhile back, but it was when they showed it on the bus to Glasgow (they showed to help increase the international students' knowledge of all things 'British') that I remembered the fabulous scene where the improbability drive changes the Heart of Gold ship into a ball of yarn, and all the people inside into little knitted dolls... these ones, right here, to be exact...Click here to see some screen shots showing the knitted ship...
I just rented the original tv series of Hitchhiker's guide, and there really is no comparison between that one and this new movie... but I still recommend renting it, if only for these few minutes of total knittedness! :)
Oh, and while the pre-made dolls are available at the bargain price of ₤8.95 each, some ingenious person has already made up a Marvin pattern so that you can knit your own! :)

Im a huge fan of the books and for me the movie just didnt do it justice. You should get hold of the original radio shows and listen to them.
