As it happens, I've never seen or read anything Hitchhikers.  I attempted once to read the original book, but I ended up only reading 10-20 pages.  It pretty much sucked.  And I didn't see the film from earlier this year.  I'll probably see it on DVD sometime.

The little known truth is that every type of music includes good and bad artists, so I won't be arrogant enough to classify entire styles of music as good or bad ... except Country.  Country music licks balls - including derivatives like Country Rock.  And even within the good artists, there are good and bad albums, so there are no guarantees.

If you want to ask me about specific genres, I can point you to the good stuff and steer you away from the suckiness.

It gets a C because it's average.  Some aspects were bad, others were good.  Toss it all in the air with a fork and spoon and you end up with a very average salad.  In some ways, a C is worse than an F.  I can get passionately angry about an F.  An F can at least conjure an emotional response, a C is just ... blah.  It doesn't affect me one way or the other.

Because it is named the "Yellow Brick Road."  Wouldn't make sense if the Yellow Brick Road was purple, would it?
