[edit] Notes
- No novelizations were made for Asterix the Gaul, Asterix in Britain or Asterix and Cleopatra which followed the original albums relatively closely.
- In 1967 movie there was an attempt to make an animated film based on Asterix and the Golden Sickle. It wasn't completed.
- The 1976 movie The Twelve Tasks of Asterix is the only animated movie that hasn't been based (at least loosely) on any of the comic books.
- The early films had limited animation and were in some instances slightly absurd.
- Starting from 1985's Asterix Versus Caesar the animation quality improved dramatically.
- Asterix Conquers America was the only one produced solely outside of France.
- Early English dubbed versions of cartoon movies used character names from the Ranger/Look and Learn "Asterix the Briton" translations, such as Tunabrix for the village chieftain.
- Asterix Conquers America, Asterix & the Vikings and the upcoming Asterix: The Land of the Gods are the only cartoons in the Asterix series with digital effects.
- Asterix: The Land of the Gods will be the first Asterix movie in stereocopy 3D.
