As for this one here, it is interesting to see that it happened almost a decade after this film was released in France and Belgium, even if the release date for West Germany was considerably earlier. Winnetou did the same, Bud Spencer films as well and of course many others. I'd also say it is accurate I mentioned the German title here early on because the only bit of awards recoognition mentioned here on imdb for this one is from Germany, namely that the film won the Golden Screen here in my country and that is an award for movies that reach extremely high amounts of movie-goers. The original is in the French language of course, but this has been translated and dubbed in many, many other languages. "Astérix le Gaulois" or "Asterix the Gaul" or "Asterix der Gallier" or just "Asterix" is a co-production between Belgium and France from 1967, so the outcome here will have its 55th anniversary next year already.

Asterix is less well known in the United States and Japan. The Asterix series is one of the most popular Franco-Belgian comics in the world, with the series being translated into over 100 languages, and it is popular in most European countries. For much of the history of the series (Volumes 4 through 29), settings in Gaul and abroad alternated, with even-numbered volumes set abroad and odd-numbered volumes set in Gaul, mostly in the village. In many cases, the stories have them travel to various countries around the world, though other books are set in and around their village. The “ix” suffix of both names echoes the name of Vercingetorix, a historical Gaul chieftain. The protagonist, the titular character, Asterix, along with his friend Obelix have various adventures. They do so by means of a magic potion, brewed by their druid, which gives the recipient superhuman strength. The series follows the exploits of a village of ancient Gauls as they resist Roman occupation. As of 2009, 34 comic books in the series have been released. The series first appeared in French in the magazine Pilote on 29 October 1959.
