I have the Hitchhiker's Guide series on DVD. It came out sometime last year, I believe. Wonderfully funny, and captures the sense of the books in a way that only a low budget BBC series can.

The movie Dune is an awful adaptation of the book. I wholeheartedly agree. However, if you regard it as a film by David Lynch, and view it in that context, it's pretty good. On that basis, I liked it, and I actually liked the original theatrical release version better than the recut monster with the tedious narration.
