That's not the Marvin I pictured when reading the books... I guess this is how some of the more extreme Tolkien fans felt about the hobbits et al.

:/

 

[demon]

It reminds me too much of

I suppose, though, that such a robot would probably look closer to this than how I pictured him when reading the book (several months ago). Whatever....the design seems fine.

 

[ManaByte]

And it's Willow in the suit!

 

[Ford Prefect]

I am so psyched for this movie. Just finished Mostly Harmless last night

I'm sure it'll be great; Adams himself did most of the script. I have faith.

 

[way more]

I think it's a pretty good design, I never pictured him so short and I thought he was blue.

 

[FoneBone]

Um, that's the first official photo, but pics of Marvin's design for the movie have been online for a while now.

Yeah. I kinda pictured him looking a little like bender. This design is alright though.

What past movies?

 

[Die Squirrel Die]

I'm less worried about how he looks more how he sounds.

oh that he is, and a cool dude to boot, just not what i imagined when i read the novels. but im not dissapointed, rather surprised by the choice.

I think this Marvin may be a work of genius. One of the complaints a friend of mine had about the BBC TV series rendition of Marvin was that he looked utterly miserable. There was no way this could be a design for a robot with Genuine People Personality, the future of domestic androids.

This design does look like it could. But it also looks perfect for slouching and looking miserable. Done right, it could really look like something that was meant to be cheery and ended up miserable, and that's not an easy mark to hit.

What past movies?

The Italian Job

that one HBO movie

Brown Sugar

and he has his moments on the microphone, too

I don't know if it'll be able to top the BBC film they made of the movie.

But still, awesome, new wallpaper.
