OH my gosh! Could you just imagine that? A short lil Snape running around Hogwarts sneering at everyone? THat would be hilarious!  If Harry Potter ever got mad all he would have to do is step on him. I would love to see a Mini Snape in action as a DeathEater for Voldemort...
Sorry got a little off topic there...
ARE YOU KIDDING?! I love Alan Rickman's voice! It's so sexy! Hehe... sorry if i scared anyone off.

What I have heard of this story this character Rickman is going to give a voice is perfect for him...He should be funny and well kinda of Alexander Dane* - just as a robot...
*Alan's character in "Galaxy Quest"

LOL Well, it won't seem like it's coming out of Davis. Marvin, also known as Marvin the Paranoid Android, is a depressed robot. You can see a picture of him as portrayed in the 1981 BBC Cult Classic TV Series HERE. The Hitchhiker's Guide has this to say about him: Quote:
Marvin is the ship's robot on the starship Heart of Gold. He is a fine example of Sirius Cybernetics Corporation's 'Genuine People Personalities' technology.
He is very, very depressed about this.
He has a brain the size of a planet, yet is rarely given the chance to use it. Mostly he finds himself waiting several million years to park cars for an exclusive restaurant, being dropped several miles on to solid rock, and being left to defend himself against awesome military technology. He finds none of these things enjoyable.
The complete Guide entry on Marvin is HERE, and includes an audio clip from the series.
I think it's fabulous that Rickman will be the voice of Marvin. I can hear him as Marvin very well in my head; a perfect match!

Hmm... I saw the trailer of that movie and it interested me. Now that Alan Rickman's voice and Warwick Davis' presence are in the movie, it must be worth seeing it when it's released here.
Ooh, that's wonderful info, Jan. 
Thanks for the news, Kris! :sorcerer:

I remember watching the series on TV as a kid, but a massive amount of detail. I can't remember the character Marvin. I imagine the film will be good though as long as the original dark humour is still there. And AR is good in anything anyway!

His voice is sexy :-p
He's soo much older than me though, so I made him my character's dad.
Luv,
