Talk:Arthur and the Minimoys (film)

message: You know, most of the animated film articles have the Japanese voice actors listed , so why don't this does not? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 189.160.6.254 (talk • contribs) 
:Don't know. Could be because the Japanese release isn't out yet? Angie Y. 22:54, 3 May 2007 (UTC)

message: There are little to no mature themes presented in this film. While there is an allusion to absinthe consumption (NOT abuse, it is only drinken once and no one gets 'drunk'), to write that there is use of marijuana, sexual situations, and migrant workers' plight can only be assumed to have been done for the purpose of painting this film in a negative light.  I would suggest that this film's entry be monitored for future vandalism

message: Having read some reviews like this one "Fun of 'Arthur' kids stuff invisible to grown-ups" at the Sun-Times, I begin to wonder if the US release is substantialy hacked about from that shown in Australia. The reviewer's unanswered questions are almost all answered in the first few minutes of cut of the movie screening in Australia.
Can anyone who's seen it in the US comment on this?

message: IMDB has pages for two alleged sequels coming in 2009 and 2010, here and here.  Now I know that IMDB isn't considered a reliable source, so I'm just wondering where this information originally came from and if it's actually true. Esn 10:14, 17 March 2007 (UTC)

message: The DVD of the film is coming out in a few days, so shouldn't there be any info on the DVD features? Angie Y. 00:12, 13 May 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Dvd release

message: The article doesn't explain why Invisibles is used in some places and Minimoys is used in others. I live in England, and oddly enough, on TV adverts they call it 'Arthur and the Invisibles', and show a clip where the word 'Invisibles is used'. We got the DVD from a rental shop, they said 'Minimoys' throughout the film, including the part where 'Invisibles' was used on the advert.
Are there two different English-language versions and can anyone provide any information about the difference in names?--Jcvamp 14:32, 29 June 2007 (UTC)
replies: text:  In an interview with Besson he comented it was the idea of the english language distribuitor, who felt "minimoys" was hard to pronounce... Nanahuatzin 22:59, 2 August 2007 (UTC)

message: I was of the impression that the film took place in the 1930s. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.145.241.247 (talk • contribs) 
I saw one of the calendars showing the year 1960.—Preceding unsigned comment added by RobertCMWV1974 (talk • contribs) 
In the article when speaking about Arthur's grandmother it says that Arthur's parents are trying to get new jobs during the Great Depression.
I can't think of anything to replace it with.

replies: text: The ambientation of the film was based in the drawings of Norman Rockwell, so while the action ocurrs in the 60,s the look is older. Nanahuatzin (talk) 23:50, 14 August 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: That still doesn't help with the time frame of the film.  Why not just put that his parents are having a hard time finding a job in the city and leave it at that? 75.157.79.55 (talk) 05:17, 19 November 2008 (UTC)

message: Just a little confused - is the original version in french or english?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 62.203.167.133 (talk) 15:42, 26 January 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: The film was done in english, specially for the international market, with the some of the voices recorded before the animation was done, and then dudbed to french. Nanahuatzin (talk) 17:18, 28 February 2008 (UTC)

text: I hotly disagree with you. Luc Besson has stated that the film is French not American. Angie Y. (talk) 02:59, 4 May 2008 (UTC)
replies: text:  Yes the film is a French film, but done in english from the start, for the international market. Besson complained that the Weinstein company tried to "amercanize" his film, that is why he remarked it is a French Film. The voices of Maddona and Snoop Doug were recorded from the start, Snoop Doug even was filmed to take his movements as reference, the lip sync of the animation was (not very well) done over the english version. Only after the film was edited and finished, a french dub was made. There is an interesting article in the Animation Magazine about the problems the frendh animators had trying to mkae the lip sync in enlgish... Nanahuatzin (talk) 23:45, 14 August 2008 (UTC)

message: Why is an article on the English Wikipedia under a name that was not used in English-speaking markets, and is therefore generally unknown among English-speaking readers?  Whatever happened to "use the most common English name"? - Jason A. Quest (talk) 21:40, 6 March 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Since no one's offered an explanation for why the title of the article should be a name that the film was apparently never marketed under, I've moved it to Arthur and the Invisibles - Jason A. Quest (talk) 00:30, 5 April 2009 (UTC)
