ASTERIX: GOD SAVE BRITANNIA (Kitsch Critiques)

[@AlkisenSuper]

The animated version of Asterix In Britain was one of the best in that series. This adaptation looks like utter trite. Great review as always!

[@WakoDoodle]

There was a reason england never had a dub. It's not that it's offensive in any way (in fact most of us British-born love to laugh at our stereotype Eh Wot?!) it's probably because we already had the animated movie which was better. Btw keep an eye out for the asterix and obelix collection, contains all movies but "Asterix and hte vikings" and "asterix conquerer's america" and has redubbed all of them with consistant voice actors; kept the french title sequence and catagorises the movies from oldest to new. Really worth the money.

[@mrcritical6751]

Anybody else want to see Aardman try there hand at an Asterix adaptation after Early Man I could see them being able to make an amazing adaptation

[@mariobabbo3497]

Yeah, I know Steven Spielberg and Peter Jackson collaborated on an adaptation of Tintin by Hergé but Aardman adapting a Franco-comic series may not be a bad idea.

[@thevioletskull8158]

Omg! You have a beard! It's looks good.

[@TheTrainMaster15]

I did not see that beard coming. I really like it.

[@marty6779]

The Man is back. Happy New year! Also, I - for one - liked this movie. Mostly due to the more calm actor of Asterix. And due to the fact that it was dubbed into German.

[@Cssquarepants]

Or the Vikings were drinking a lot of red bull

[@jenneacoleman-cubero2365]

* "Say Goodbye" plays* ...Oh...forget Elsa! Why can't we give Obelix a girlfriend? We can even get Hagar the Horrible's daughter, Honi!

[@HeadphonesUK]

I saw the trailer to Secret of the Magic potion about a month ago, I'm admittedly not sure what to make of it, since this is the first original story Asterix movie since 12 Tasks, but if it's as good as Mansions of the Gods, and get's as good a dubbing as that movie, we should be in safe hands

[@LewisDavies2007]

Wasn't it based on the comic, Asterix and the Goths?

[@Sunaki1000]

It was still based on Asterix in Brithian and Asterix and the Wikings, but extremly loosely.

[@LNER4771]

One second in, and PHWOAR! But then again, it gives a certain flair of wisdom, like Abraham Lincoln or Nick Offerman.

[@Zarok759]

It's good to see you again! 😁 The beard suits you 👍

[@RayManiac90]

I don't like Asterix in live action with real life actors, it doesn't work, Asterix is a silly comic at first and then a silly animated cartoon and it works in handdrawn or cgi, animation can capture better the feels of Asterix, it's like if Warner decided to make Looney Tunes characters like real life people with actors in silly costumes, it would be cringy and a little bit creepy.

[@nicpay3851]

I actually caught this on a cross- country flight, and I was pleasantly amused. Plus, my version was dubbed, so there's that. It is good for giggles. You won't get guffaws, but it was cute and charming. (I especially liked how the queen was only annoyed at all the stones smashing her dogs, house, etc, keeping the stiff upper lip.). I especially liked the Normans, too - it was actually good how they incorporated them into the plot.

[@wondermenel2811]

4:58 wha… WHAT WHY? *PLEAE TELL ME WHY? IM CRYING IM CRYING NOW MY EYES ARE FULL OF TEARS WHY? WHY?!*

[@HORRIOR1]

You ever gonna review 1985 Asterix Versus Ceasar? Personal favorite Asterix movie ^^

[@rowanc88]

Welcome back!

[@LovisasMustasch]

I would have loved for the astor of Asterix from the Olympics to be in this one as well, he was really good

[@97kaylum1]

Does anybody want to see a review of Asterix and the Vikings?

[@daddydonovan6108]

If i had to fix this film to make it own, i'll make it Our Duo is tasked to get back the Royal relics of Britain back from the hands of Roman governor, Notorius Maximus, who is a corrupt man who seeks power for himself and exploits Britons in their labour. And thus our duo have to learn how to get them back and behave like Britons, because whoever learns of the mission, will take the relics away. Meanwhile Our duo meets a lone Caledonian named Pneumotorax, who is also tasked by the Britonic chieftainess to get the relics back but his methods are not aligned with Asterix. Initially its a bickering, then it grows into friendship and they find an equal ground to work together. Thats just premise

[@BoogeyMan01]

Ah, I've been waiting for ages for this review. Great. But I'm afraid there are no more weak Asterix films you could rant about (well, maybe Asterix in America). Anyway, bring more reviews ;).

[@Diego-G.2591]

6:53 Panoramix' face is like: " this is a sinister type, I don't trust it!" Ahahahaha!

[@kamandi1362]

The Asterix strip isn’t Franco-Belgian, it’s purely French. Goscinny and Uderzo were French and so was Pilote magazine.

[@augth]

Yes but to be honest the whole French language comics industry is often called "Franco-Belgian"

[@richardbale725]

Hey Jeffrey I really enjoy your content top stuff lad

[@rallykalle8852]

Are you trying to go undercover as Rowan Atkinson? 9:04 the hat dont fool me

[@itomfan98productions]

A surprise too be sure. But a welcome one

[@piligregory-mccorimck771]

Miss Macintosh to the rescue!

[@daddydonovan6108]

15:09 Hey Jeffrey, what is that again? I'm not English

[@thomasandharry5199]

The fourth wall was had to go to Crewe after this one.

[@jenneacoleman-cubero2365]

No! Not Catherine Deneuve! She's better than this! She was in "Repulsion" and "Dancer in the Dark" for pete's sakes!

[@peterdavies2960]

Rest In Peace, Albert Uderzo

[@Steamer96]

I hope you do Asterix conquers America.

[@c.kiousis3663]

The issue is one of the best, perhaps the absolute best for some. The film is, well, it exists I guess.

[@jvgreendarmok]

The people who made this film, like the people who wrote the U.S. dub of "Big Fight", don't know how to do anachronism-based comedy in the right style for Asterix.

[@lnerengine2644]

Noice beard

[@Sunaki1000]

One of the worst Adaptations, Movies and Ideas I have ever whitnessed.

[@jshadowhunter]

12:05 looking back at this scene I always think they're about to jump out. XD

[@Razorblade1812]

One of those movies that literally "Got woke and went broke".

[@jvgreendarmok]

What on earth about it is woke?

[@ottagol1985]

This film's too cheap to get the rest of the village involved.

[@bogdanserban3792]

Have you seen the new Asterix movie?

[@JeffreyKitsch]

No because it hasn't been released in the UK yet, but I will do later this year when its out on DVD.

[@97kaylum1]

@@JeffreyKitsch I heard you're an Asterix fan. I love your videos. Will you do a review of Asterix and the Vikings please? If you don't want to, that's okay.

[@goodolgranite8247]

Why is Asterix so unlikeable in this film?

[@RayManiac90]

Because film producers think annoying character = kids will love it

[@eddy_malouempereur_du_cong6536]

You look like jamel debuz with this beard

[@element19ch]

Oh of course a Queen. In the next Asterix we will have a Muslim Transgender :)

[@scr0ngle108]

That nothing, thats literally nothing what are your issues man

[@jvgreendarmok]

No... it had a Queen as a (at the time) contemporary reference.

[@Polak-dd7ds]

*I SHALL MISS THAT HANDLEBAR*

[@grumpyorgre2336]

The gingerbread man lol 😂

[@mariobabbo3497]

This gets history all wrong

[@mogensl.g.schmidt1808]

Ahh come on i like these movies

[@stefanloncar6868]

Nice beard

[@grumpyorgre2336]
