where was the second half of the babelfish joke, regarding god, logic, and intelligent design? where were the monkeys and their script for hamlet? and wasn't there a bit on magrathea about putting dinosaur bones into the planets to mess with us old-earthers? i guess they took out all of the religion/creationism jokes. i'm hoping for a director's cut with them in it...
also, zaphod's appearance did throw me off.
