Line 9:
For other versions of the story, see ''[[The Hitchhikers Guide to The Galaxy]]''.

* [[An Aesop]] / [[Author Tract]]: Something that Douglas Adams said himself is repeated by Slartibartfast. It comes off as the smartest thing stated in the film.

* [[Shout-Out]]: The [[Star Wars|lightsabre]] toasters, complete with authentic Lucas sound effects.
** The ''Heart of Gold's'' dropships are a direct reference to ''[[2001: A Space Odyssey (Film)|2001: A Space Odyssey]]''.
** [[Shout Out to Shakespeare]]: Zaphod wants to "[[The Tempest|trip the light fantastic]]" with Questular.
