	Asterix: Just the facts... (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-17)
		Asterix lives around 50 BC in a fictional village in northwest Armorica (additional info and facts about Armorica) (a region of ancient Gaul (A Celt of ancient Gaul) mostly identical to modern Brittany (A former province of northwestern France on a peninsula between the English Channel and the Bay of Biscay)).
		Much of the humour in the initial Asterix books was French-specific, which delayed the translation of the book into other languages for fear of losing the joke and the spirit of the story.
		In the early album Asterix and the Goths, for instance, the Goths (One of the Teutonic people who invaded the Roman Empire in the 3rd to 5th centuries) are represented as militaristic (additional info and facts about militaristic) and regimented, reminiscent of late nineteenth and early twentieth century Germans (A person of German nationality).

	Reviews for Asterix and the Big Fight
		After they began making Asterix movies again in the mid 80's, they produced two very good ones ('Vs Caeser, and 'In Britain') but this 1989 movie is severely dumbed down.
		It's actually based mainly on 'Asterix and the Soothsayer', with some of 'Asterix and the Big Fight' blended into it, but not the 'big fight' part, so that makes no sense at all.
		Part of what was so great about the Asterix books was that they were multi-layered, that they included historical references which were educational and made kids curious about such matters.

		Asterix is the crafty, cunning warrior who is relied upon to defend the village from Rome.
		Getafix is the village druid -- he is the voice of reason in the village and defends the villagers against Roman incursions.
		There is a reason that Asterix is a classic and continues to be read by millions: it is well written, amusing, and the good guys always win despite the seemingly insurmountable odds.

	Asterix and Obelix heros of Gaul, France
		key feature of the text of the Asterix books are the constant puns used as names of characters; The names of the two protagonists come from the French names for the asterisk and the obelisk.
		Notable examples include Britain's most famous bards, in Asterix in Britain, who are four in number and look like the Beatles; and a pair of Belgian warriors in Asterix in Belgium who resemble Thomson and Thompson of the Belgian Tintin comic book.
		More recently, this has occasionally extended to major characters: in Asterix and the Black Gold, a Roman spy is Sean Connery as James Bond, and in Asterix and Obelix All at Sea, the leader of the escaped slaves is Kirk Douglas as Spartacus.

		Asterix and Obelix live in a village in Gaul that the Romans failed to conquer.
		The Asterix comic books are a great way to teach children ancient history.
		In my opinion the best Asterix albums are: Asterix and the Normans; Asterix in Corsica; Obelix and company; Asterix the Gladiator; Asterix the Legionary; Asterix and Cleopatra; Asterix and the Goths; Asterix in Belgium; Asterix and the big fight; and Asterix all around Gaul.

	Astérix et le coup du menhir (1989) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-17)
		I bought Asterix and the Big Fight expecting it to be a big screen recreation of one of my favourite Asterix books.
		All in all, this film lacks the magic of the Twelve Tasks of Asterix film, or the Asterix and Cleopatra film and an attempt at a musical number, a gimmick which worked wonders in the latter film, goes sourly wrong, with poor writing and the Gauls singing in voices drowned out by the music.
		From the patronising opening scene in which Asterix explains the term 'Gaul' to Obelix, it is clear that you are in for a tedious hour long slog.

		One of the earlier Asterix books, this one has the village's leader, Vitalstatistix, called out by a rival village leader who's become a pawn to the Romans for a one-on-one fight.
		All well and good, being the Vitalstatistix, like the rest of his village, is invincible, as long as he has the magic potion-- the only problem is that, thanks to a small fumble with a menhir, Obelix has transformed druid and chief potion-maker Getafix into a drooling idiot.
		One of the all-time favs with Asterix readers, the dialog is funny, the drawings funnier - a must have, must read, must buy...
