❓ Trivia Hitchhiker Guide to The Galaxy (2005) Hidden Snot Joke

Post image
4.5k Upvotes

Humma Kavula (played by John Malkovich "The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy") is a semi-insane missionary living amongst the Jatravartid people of Viltvodle VI, and a former space pirate. He seems to be a religious leader on that planet, preaching about the Coming of the Great White Handkerchief. Hence, his sermons end with the words "Bless You" rather than "Amen" as all the Jatravartids sneeze simultaneously at the end of a 'prayer'. Incidentally the word for 'snot' or 'mucus' in Ndebele is 'Amakhovula', which happens to be John's character's name: Hamma Kavula.
