Son of Rambow

No I haven’t seen it yet, but honestly how can a film fail when you have casted fantastic actors like these. I will be very surprised if this is not going to be one of my favourite films of 2008.
Tonight I will attend a preview of it with a Q&A with director Garth [...]

Me and my sneakers – just landed on Magrathea

… have just landed on …

Arthur and Slartibartfast

Arthur and Slartibartfast
You have to be a very sad person to do this but I twittered The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy live from my mobile phone while watching it on BBC2 yesterday. That’s really sad.
(I know, too-much-bill alert. No Bill pic tomorrow, I promise. I think.)

New York, Times Square, 42nd St

“Hi” he says.
“Hi” I kiss him on the cheek. “Thanks for picking me up”.
“Always a pleasure, it has been too long. Is that all your luggage?”
“Yes. Do you think I can take some pictures?”¨
“Sure. They might look a bit, ehrm, spacey, but try.”
We buckle up and I grab my camera.
“Ready?” [...]

AIR – sexy boys …

If you thought that flying far to watch Bill Nighy was a first time silly action, think again. I flew to an iceberg (in Greenland) to see a concert of a band I (still) like, and have flown to London more than once to see them there too. And beside those [...]

Hitchhikers Guide inspired poem.

When I signed up for the course, in the beginning of February it seemed so far away. I hadn’t even moved to London there, and the future was somewhat uncertain. It was actually quite a silly thing to do, because lots of things might have happened, and I might never have settled in London. But [...]

The Salmon of Daoubt – Douglas Adams
The Salmon of Doubt is a must read if you are a fan of Douglas Adams. It contains interviews with, and articles written by Douglas Adams, and it gives you quite some personal background about Douglas Adams as a person. It’s difficult to base your opinion on books only, [...]

Douglas Street

I have been in London for nearly 3 months now. And I am doing my best to become a real Londoner. This means crossing streets even though the light is red. Say “please” after nearly everything you say. Reading a book in the tube. Be on time for appointments, even when travelling by tube. [...]

Another Hitchhikers Guide inspired poem

St. Paul’s Cathedral
to be back in London.

A hitchhikery kind of poem …

I am the first one to admit that it has been a tough week. But on the other hand, one can’t expect to have everything in place in a week either. I am not looking forward to return to Denmark at all, but I have to (I am all packed and ready to leave Woodgreen [...]

The Hitchhikers Guide To The Galaxy – Marvin and Arthur Dent on Margrathea

I know you are waiting for my opinion about The Hitchhikers Guide To The Galaxy, the movie. So here it is.
Since this was a preview, there were people in bathing gowns, and on ever chair in the cinema there was a towel.
A towel… [...]

Bill “Slartibartfast” Nighy en Martin “Arthur Dent” Freeman
Sometimes you run into books that catch you from the very first page. The Da Vinci Code seemed to be one, but coming nearing to the end of this book it faded out, and became a bit boring.
The Hitchhikers Guide to The Galaxy seems to be this kind [...]
