h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Sorry for the confusion, folks. This article was previously published on another website. It has since been removed from that website and now appears exclusivly on h2g2.

Additionally, I want to make it clear that this article is completely my own creation. The entry was written solely by myself. No other individuals contributed to the creation of this entry, and no material was acquired from other pieces by other writers, with or without their knowledge.

Hope that clears everything up. Let me know if you think it's any good, or if it can be improved.

Thanks!

Hi Folks -

Thanks for all your comments. I have edited the entry a bit based on some of your suggestions. It's now in Guide ML format so it looks a little better, and I added in some information about how the film was recieved and how it was made. I didn't take out any plot because I thought that what I have at the moment is important to understand the themes of the film, but maybe I'm wrong. Anyway, let me know what you think.

To reiterate, I wrote this entire entry all by myself. I didn't copy it from anywhere else. Not even a little bit of it. Maybe the style is a little more terse than other entries on h2g2, but I wanted to make it similar to an encyclopedia entry, which is a little more organized, a little more professional, and I think a little more useful and easy to read.

As some of you have commented, this was originally posted on wikipedia. My understanding (which may or may not be correct) is that I retain the copyright to anything I post on wikipedia or h2g2. That means I can publish it anywhere else I want. H2g2 said I could, but they didn't like it too much, so I took it off wikipedia. It's still somewhere in the archives, but it's not the main entry.

Thanks for all the useful discussion. Hope this revision of the article is good.
