its a good book, pick it up and read it, its really short and you can probably read it in a night easily.

I viewed it in Firefox just fine, not sure what's going on with yours
It's just embedded into their front page

The direct link is www.amazon.com . There's a big yellow button with an arrow pointing to the right that will start the trailer. If you do not have current versions of Firefox and Flash Player you should download them and stop calling people dipshits.

My only worry is that 2 hours isn't enough time to cover everything they need to

Arthur Dent wakes up one day to find some bulldozers outside his house, apparently they are building a highway through where his house is and it's to be destroyed. While laying in front of the bulldozer to prevent the destruction his friend Ford Prefect comes along and drags him to the pub for a drink and to tell him that the Earth is going to be destroyed. Ford also explains that he is from another world. Just before the Earth is destroyed Ford and Arthur hitch a ride on one of the Vogon Contructor ships and insane goings ons follow.
It is one of the funniest books I have ever read and the only reason I am not overly wary about a good movie happening from them is because Douglas Adams wrote the script before he died.
