details

• After a couple of minutes of typical movie credits, we are treated with a
  final, classic Guide entry. It refers to Arthur Dent carelessly speaking
  words about a towel, which ends up being interpreted by a pair of warring
  factions as a devastating insult. They then spend thousands of years coming
  to Earth bent on revenge, however "due to a terrible miscalculation of
  scale the entire battle fleet was accidentally swallowed by a small dog".
  The Guide concludes with the reassuring nugget of wisdom, "this sort of
  thing is going on all the time".
• "For Douglas" -- precedes the closing credits, after the final action
  sequence.
• The film has effectively two title sequences. The first is part of the
  opening song, when the title appears out of a screenful of bubbles as the
  "So Long And Thanks For All The Fish" number gears up. The second is after
  the Vogon ships destroy the Earth and we see The Book for the first time -
  as the original theme music of the radio show and miniseries plays, the
  book's spine rotates into view and we see its - and the movie's - title.
