The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy/YMMV

These things about  are subjective - not everyone will agree with all of them.

"Trish: Love and kisses?!?!"
 * Adaptation Displacement: Most people are familiar with the series as either a five or six book "trilogy", unaware that it was first a radio program. For those people who know about the radio series, this makes the complaints of the book-only fans about the 2005 movie absolutely hilarious. Also, many fans get the timeline backwards on the novels and the radio series (the novels are the adaptation).
 * Angst? What Angst?: Trillian barely notices when her home planet is blown up and billions of people are killed. Dent has the decency to be shocked for a few minutes, though once he realizes that he can't quite wrap his head around the magnitude of the loss he starts going into culture shock.
 * Film version Trish McMillan doesn't even find out until late in the story thanks to Zaphod. When she find out, she goes ballistic.


 * Awesome Ego: Zaphod in all versions except the movie. It's how he survives the Total Perspective Vortex.
 * Ear Worm: "Journey of the Sorcerer". Every version with audio has got some arrangement of it.
 * Hilarious in Hindsight: Wikipedia. "While it has many errors and contains much that is apocryphal, or at least wildly inaccurate, it is slightly cheaper."
 * To say nothing of the fact that anyone could wander in and write a paragraph.
 * It Was His Sled: 42 is the answer to the Ultimate Question of Life, the Universe and Everything.
 * Memetic Mutation: "42", "Zaphod's just this guy, you know?", "DON'T PANIC"...
 * Misblamed: Many people actually cry Adaptation Decay or They Changed It, Now It Sucks to the various adaptation(s) because they're "not like the book". This is despite that Adams actually approves them himself (and is pretty much involved in the production of them all, see in the movie section.) and he's stated, numerous times, that he wanted them to be different.
 * The Woobie: Awwwww! Poor Marvin!
 * This pretty much sums it up.
