They went unnoticed at Goonhilly, they passed over Cape Canaveral without a blip, and Woomera and Jodrell Bank looked straight through them… which was a pity, because it was the sort of thing they’d been looking for all these years.

The book describes them as huge, yellow, chunky and slab like. The TV show has them looking exactly like this, which makes the line Ford says about them being a fleet of flying *saucers* all the more odd. He was probably just describing them in generic Earth terms for Arthur's benefit.

@roguishpaladin
4 жыл бұрын
Bear in mind that the animation is set to the previously-existing radio show. An uneventful destruction of Earth would come off as silence, which would leave the listener scratching their head as to what just happened. Different media require different approaches, something that Douglas Adams recognized very well when he adapted the radio show as a book and as a TV show.

The understated jokes that just go on in the background of the series are hilarious to me, like that Zaford signing the destruction order for Earth to create the express lane while the heart of gold is being made that makes hyperspace entirely obsolete so the destruction really wasn't needed. But the planning had been done, the papers filed, the permissions granted, what were they supposed to do, just ignore all that because a better way of doing things just came along?

Hey. In case you do come back, I think you should do an animation segment on the chapter where Beeblebrox is in a broken down Heart of Gold in the dark and hears an intruder and turns out to be a broken Marvin. I forgot which book it was and I'm hoping there won't be a copyright strike against it. It would be pretty cool though. I've also made this playlist called "Adult Swim Material". It's not really what it seems, but it's a bit of my vision of a collection of videos that have the Adult Swim vibe. I included your HHGTTG animations just to get this feel. They're awesome and worthy of the playlist. Hope you come back one day

I hope your 3 year "hiatus" from making content is because you are happily hitchhiking the galaxy and that you have still more current content someday... either way, I like it, subbscribed✔️ MAY YOU ALWAYS KNOW WHERE YOUR TOWEL IS, and may it always be SO FLUFFY!
