Don't panic, and bring a towel.

For seasoned galactic travelers, if you're looking for the Ultimate Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, which includes:

  • Hitchhiker's Guide
  • The Restaurant at the End of the Universe
  • Life, the Universe, and Everything
  • So Long and Thanks for All the Fish
  • Young Zaphod Plays It Safe
  • Mostly Harmless

... this wormhole should get you there.

Also, upon conferring with both Space and Ice Pirates, I've been persuaded to also provide their contribution here in honor of the late, great Douglas Adams.

Now could you guys please untie my cats and get them off the plank?

Oooh, I've never seen the Martin Freeman version. How does it compare to the 81 BBC series?

It's been quite a long time since I watched it, but it felt to me like halfway through they just decided to do a completely different story.

I remember not liking it as a result, but I was much more concerned with how faithful an adaptation was in my youth. YMMV

That sounds like how I felt about the Confessions of a Shopaholic movie. It was perfectly passable but it also felt like they tried to cram the entire series into one 90 minute movie
