60 of 118 · most liked firstI never realised that the cover to Goscinny & Uderzo’s “Asterix and Cleopatra” was a parody of Howard Terpning’s movie poster for 1963’s “Cleopatra”, or that the list of resources run through during the graphic novel’s making on the cover was poking fun at Cleopatra’s famously bloated production.

Interesting thing: For a kids' movie it's much more open about sexuality than you'd ever see from a US film. Cleopatra is always wearing skimpy clothes and several of the men are clearly quite interested in her. (1/n)
neutral · AI labelView post →It sounds like that one Asterix movie where they had to do the twelve tasks. In one task Obelix went into an all-you-can-eat restaurant and had to eat everything he was given. He did. Then the cook ran out crying that he has nothing else to serve and he is now ruined. Obelix went out like, "Such a weird cook; he gave me appetizers and left!"

neutral · AI labelView post →When playing through Blood and Wine, getting to this insane Asterix reference the moment you step inside and see the familiar booths from the movie on top of a recreation of the shots for the same gags is a hell of a pull. I had a giant smile on my face the entire time. This is just wonderful.💚

neutral · AI labelView post →20. Asterix et Obélix Mission Cléopâtre Loosely based on the 1968 frankly excellent cartoon and the 1965 comic book, this movie sees Gaul hero Asterix having to visit Egypt to help a friend build Caesar's Palace in 3 months. www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Nd1...
neutral · AI labelView post →Man we used to get documentary, real documentary not ego-stroking fluff pieces, about how movies are made! Really put the work and artistry at the center. I have this French movie, Asterix Mission Cleopatre, that comes with a making-of longer than the movie itself! It’s amazing!
neutral · AI labelView post →Asking because I just binged the recent "Asterix & Obelix: The Big Fight" on Netflix and thoroughly enjoyed it. I remember seeing the comic as a kid in the 90s when visiting a British friend (living in the US), but never read any of them. I kind of want to check them out now.
neutral · AI labelView post →This one doesn't take too long: *Asterix & Obelix: The Big Fight* on Netflix. Very true in spirit to the original comics but with modernized puns (e.g. one Roman general is named "Fastandfurius"). I would call it "a fun romp" if that phrase hadn't already been ruined by industry shills. Not to be confused with the recent live-action Asterix & Obelix series, which I couldn't even get ten minutes into. Live-action versions of animated movies/series generally suck, even when they don't have Gal…
neutral · AI labelView post →Certainly watching Asterix and the Vikings and it’s so much more peak than the Britain movie already with its Disney quality animation

Astérix et Cléopâtre (Thoughts based on Dutch dub: Asterix en Cleopatra) There was one VHS in particular I used to watch over and over during the weekends at my dad’s house. It was an animated movie unlike any other, revelling in the fact it was a “bad” dub,

The Wild Robot was a friend's recommendation which I really enjoyed. The Asterix movie was still fun to watch.
positive · AI labelView post →The Asterix animated movie "The Mansions of the Gods" had two English language versions: a UK one with well-known UK celebs doing the dubbing, and a Canadian version with relative unknowns. The latter was _much_ better! en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asterix...
neutral · AI labelView post →Can't make a movie where Asterix and Obelix meet American Indians without having a ceremonial pipe scene, but it's the '90s, and children will be watching this, so you have to make it very clear throughout the scene that smoking is very, very bad.
neutral · AI labelView post →Last night I watched the live-action Asterix movie. And yes, I know all about Gérard Depardieu, but something else occured to me. The characters were very much like their comic book counterparts and... they're kinda dicks.
negative · AI labelView post →I wish that Americans embraced Tintin and Asterix. The 2011 Tintin movie by Steven Spielberg and Peter Jackson and Asterix & Obelix: The Big Fight would had a great chance to make them popular and more well known in America and show them that there's other European comics besides The Smurfs.
neutral · AI labelView post →A strange oddity I found out: The animated film "The Twelve Tasks of Asterix" is on Netflix Canada, but only accessible by searching the movie on Google and JustWatch and only with French and Dutch language tracks/subtitles. Bizarre.
neutral · AI labelView post →If you love animated movies, you really owe it to yourself to watch the new "Asterix and Obelix: The Big Fight" movie on Netflix. Any of the recent asterix and obelix animations for that matter. Thank me later.
positive · AI labelView post →My parents gave me the old Betamax for my room with a decent collection of kids movie taped on TV or copied from rentals! So I was always rewatching them. And then later I got a VHS VCR to watch even more movies! Asterix movies were, collectively, probably my most played ones!

neutral · AI labelView post →3.) Asterix: Mansion of the Gods The most recent movie my friends and I watched on our Asterix marathon, and it's probably one of my favorites so far. I don't have a personal preference on which dub to choose, but overall it was pretty funny and charming

neutral · AI labelView post →Rewatching the Asterix movies and while Asterix and The Big Fight isn't a good 2D animated movie, there's something bewildering about the animation having the insane tone clash of being a comedy but taking itself so dramatically serious. The English dub makes it such a trip.

neutral · AI labelView post →I absolutely love the Netflix Asterix. I was really surprised by how sharp it was, especially given most Asterix TV/movie stuff in the past couple of decades has been so weak. I guess it's the non-Depardieu-ness of the whole endeavour?

positive · AI labelView post →The Twelve Tasks of Asterix is a classic and the movie is great too.
