Of course, you can tweak digital pictures colors pretty quickly to get in the neighborhood of the Velvia shots.
I honestly doubt it. Kodak and Fuji's colour pallettes are the product of decades of experience and they are very delicately balanced. I have seen very few people who are talented enough in colour management to just move a few sliders and get something equally vibrant from a digital file without completely destroying it.
All it takes is one person:

But seriously, it is difficult and the same settings won't massage any file from one camera to look like some particular kind of film. I do find that guy's presets useful at times though... It's probably better to not even try to go for a film look with a digital camera. It's much easier to achieve that by shooting film.

Also, have you guys tried playing with the Canon picture-stlye presets in LR/ACR? They give you a pretty big variety of styles. I haven't had any problems with the 5DII's colors.
