The HitchHiker's Guide To The Galaxy

For those who have never read "The HitchHiker's Guide To The Galaxy" I recommend that you do. It is hands down one the of the funniest damn things I've ever read. If you have already read it, then this will make sense. I was over at ComingSoon.net looking up info on the movie adaption set to be released May 6th. One of the main characters, Ford Prefect to be exact, is the funniest character of the whole story (think Banky from Chasing Amy with less profanity and gay bashing). When I heard they were making this Andi and I both were hoping with all our hope that Jason Lee would be playing Ford. Simply put, he was made for the role. But upon viewing the cast list I see that Mos Def is playing Ford. Now aside from what Evan & Kris had said over the years, I'm not prejudice in anyway. But, FORD PREFECT IS NOT BLACK!!! This is just like when they had Michael Clarke Duncan play Kingpin in the movie Daredevil. I mean is it really that hard to stick to the character. I mean if they cast Colin Farrell as Blade there would have been an uproar. As previously stated, I'm not prejudice but when you grow up with an image of a character in your head and some hollywood F*ck-Wad thinks that they can change the character from what they've always been drives me insane. So there's another movie ruined for me before it's released.
