Definitely not even a little bit funny.

We saw Hitch-hikers Guide to the Galaxy the other night and Marvin has been bothering me since. Well not Marvin himself but the fact that the robot obviously is depressed and no one gives a damn. They keep having things like "oh if you know someone who you think might be suffering from depression, see if you can help out, contact Beyond Blue and stuff like that". But when its in the context of a movie and the character involved is not human its supposed to be funny?

Well its not. Geez, you'd think after the recent events with Paul Hester and Rene Rivkin that it might be a good idea to take the subject seriously but hey, not if it makes money.

Oh and Marvin is not manically depressed either. At least lets be accurate.
