    The words are from Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy, but aren’t the images stills from The Neverending Story?

    Is this one of those ‘“Use the Force, Luke” -Gandalf, with an image of Harry Potter’ type memes?

    Or am I going mad? 😄

      It’s Princess Irulan played by Virginia Madsen in the 1984 version of Dune

        In the beginning, the universe was created. This has made a lot of people very angry and has been widely regarded as a bad move.

        — Terry Pratchett

        — Michael Scott

        I mean, Pratchett and Adams hung around each other and influenced each other’s work, so…

          Pratchett is quoted as admiring Adams’ work but I’m not sure it goes much further than that unless you’ve seen anything specific?

        I saw this and thought of the movie Love Actually but with Dune characters and meow I feel like a silly goose.
