      I didn't hate the theatrical version, I thought it did a pretty good job of capturing the spirit of the book in the time frame available. I actually enjoyed it quite a bit, I thought it was a really fun movie. I'm not saying it was necessarily a cinematic masterpiece, but it seemed like the people making it were having a hell of a good time being silly like the book was silly, and I enjoyed it.

      @The Rain I hate to break it to you, but the vinyy is a remake as well. A couple of parts were recast for it. But the original is available on CD. I got mine through Amazon. There is a small section of episode 3 deleted because of copyright on the music Marvin hums as they search for the entrance to Magrathea. Otherwise, it's the while thing. They've issued the two original radio series and dramatisations of Douglas Adams's other HHGTTG novels.

      A bit later on, when the black ship is getting ready to do the sundive, Adams talks about telepathy being the worst of all social diseases. If he was alive now I'd love to hear his take on social media. It's got certain similarities to telepathy in that people tend to post whatever they are thinking because of the anonymity they feel or because they don't consider all of the people who will be reading. And like he says, it causes great conflict among people.

    All things considered, the main course is sentient enough to offer consent, so surely that means they must be aware of there being a choice, and has made peace with it. As a calf, the farmer said to the cattle "Hey, here's an option; you can be fed all you can eat, massaged and nurtured to improve the quality of your flesh so that we can serve you for dinner, or you can be put out to stud and help rear others, which would you prefer?"
    But then that throws in a whole quandary about whether the animal had a choice to begin with. If intelligent enough to speak and understand consent, would it also have been capable of enhancing itself beyond being cattle, or would their life have been purposefully simple and easily fulfilled? Was there a choice of that?

      Well it can be argued that is true. He had to go all the way to the end of the universe to find a job, and probably went through considerable efforts just getting their for the interview (What with temporal teleconferencing being extremely difficult and prone to causality based reception issues) so time traveling being the really only options, and the space fare on a time traveling taxi always being a rip off.
      Technically he's only been employed for about 2hrs, but he's been going back and forth over those two hours for over 20years.

    I remember as a teen watching this, that I thought Arthur was being ridiculous.
    Now I see his point. This animal doesn't really have a choice about being eaten any more than a normal cow does, but he's been twisted and warped until he can be forced to say that he wants to be eaten. He had no free will in the business any more than a normal cow does.
    With normal meat you console yourself by considering that this is the natural order of things. Animals are eaten all the time. But this, this isn't natural at all.

      However, in the books it is revealed that the organisms have been genetically modified to have it be their deepest desire to be eaten. In "And Another Thing", a religious sect worships the animals and refuses to eat them, but the animals organize many violent protests against the sect, demanding that they be eaten. Just as humans have the biological desire to eat and reproduce, these animals biologically desire to be eaten. Why not give the animals what they desire? It'd be cruel not to. Haha.

The movies did a good job really but mainly it made the existence of the books known to later generations.
