So far all i've seen is that Marvin, as opposed to the tv series where he is a 6 foot tall robot, is a little robot (much like an aibo) played by the same guy who did wicket the Ewok.

I always read yahoo movies for movie news.

http://movies.yahoo.com/shop?d=hp&id=1808404419&cf=prev

couldn't find the original Marvin picture I saw but I found the Douglas Adams site page. It has a picture of Warwick Davis wearing the Marvin suit.

Edit: oh, and here some pages with the trailer link

Edit(2): which doesn't work .

For the moment, you seem to be able to get it here. It lacks footage from the actual movie. Or, at least, it lacks footage of people or people-like things from the movie and that dissappoints me somewhat.

Well the links I supplied point out that the trailer is more of a ....can't think of the word....you know, sort of introduction but without any footage.
Narf, what did Hollywood butcher?. Marvins size?.

Edit: Is it just me or does Marvin now look like a midget Stormtrooper?. They must have made a mistake when they grew the clone.
