Oh ho ho!
No, I meant in relation to others!
especially since its a main one set up from the hitchhikers site. most of those conversations went on for a couple of weeks and then just disappeared.

marvin in the film???????
just so long as they keep in true marvin spirit i don't mind what he's like.
any suggestions for who'll play hm?

Kaz Posted Oct 21, 2002
not really. I suppose the same guy who did the voice last time, it wouldn't matter in terms of age so much cos you wouldn't actually 'see' him on screen would you? You see I can't imagine anyone else as Marvin.

Kaz Posted Nov 3, 2002
Is that you marty? or is that someone else? cos if its you, you're nickname's dissappeared again.
I don't know about Brian Blessed. I don't know if he has the ability to sound bored enough. Marvin always sounded bored.

well if he's supposed to sound boring how bout getting a politician to do his voice?
ford prefect
Kaz Posted Nov 7, 2002
No. He didn't sound boring. Marvin has never been boring. He just sounded as if he was feeling bored a lot. That's what I meant.

Kaz Posted Nov 15, 2002
For Marvin we need someone who hasn't got a very posh voice, but could still 'speak proper'.

NPY Posted Nov 29, 2002
not really
how about john cleese?
no too silly by far.
can you see marvin as bazil fawlty?
ford prefect
Kaz Posted Dec 3, 2002
Don't think so!
I think John Cleese could do Marvin though, possibly. He's got that 'long suffering' sound to his voice sometimes. Especially as Basil!
