They released a trailer at ComicCon. There's a few places Online you can download it (check slashdot article for mirrors).

Should be sweet

For the love of whatever major diety will listen please don't let this movie be butchered and ruined by those in control to make money!!!

I'll go download the trailer

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.

Can you post a link to the article. I'm having trouble finding it.

I always read yahoo movies for movie news.

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.

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.
