The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy (film)/Funny

"Zaphod: We made it! We're in Magrathea! Ford: It's not Magrathea. Zaphod: Yes it is! I know it! Ford: It isn't-- Zaphod: Yes it is!"
 * The trailer. It's simply the in-universe's Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy's entry on "movie trailers", providing an example and a running commentary on the key elements including the usage of In a World, Stuff Blowing Up and Fan Service. Guess which film it uses as an example.
 * "Ford?" "Yes?" "I think I'm a sofa." "I know how you feel."
 * Also, yarn puppets.
 * See both scenes here.
 * One-headed Zaphod pretends he's shooting back at the attacking Vogons. Then he starts dancing like Michael Jackson.
 * Later, Zaphod keeps insisting the Vogon's homeworld is Magrathea.

"Zaphod: Who are we waiting for again? [Ford calms Arthur] No, I'm serious."
 * Ford, Zaphod, and Arthur sitting down while waiting for Trillian to be released.

"Arthur: Stupid!"
 * The things popping up from the dirt and slapping people's faces whenever someone thinks of anything.

"Trillian: Marvin, you saved our lives. Marvin: I know. Wretched, isn't it?"
 * The Vogons become as depressed as Marvin.

"Arthur: The name's Dent! Arthur Dent! DO panic, mother]!"
 * "Incredible. It's even worse than I thought it would be."
 * When the Guide mentions Oolon Coluphid's books, Where God Went Wrong and Some More of God's Greatest Mistakes, their covers are, respectively, the male and female symbols.
 * Most of the Guide's explanations have either a Freeze-Frame Bonus or a Funny Background Event.
 * The "Really Deleted Scenes" from the DVD edition.
 * One features the scene where Arthur, Ford and Zaphod burst in on the room full of queues. Except this time, Arthur is wearing a headband and maniacally brandishing a BFG, while the others add emphasis. Then the "take" ends, while everyone wanders off to take phone calls or complain to the production crew.


 * In the other, Arthur is about to embark on his tour of the planet factory, when he beats up Slartibartfast, rescues a random dog and runs off, with Bill Nighy left Chewing the Scenery in his wake.
