The Twelve Tasks of Asterix is on tv, one of my all time favorite animated movies.

The task of getting Permit A38 is proverbial.

Indeed. I didn't know it existed outside of the francophone world.

Asterix is widely popular and known in Germany.

Smoke Signals.  Pretty good.  I always wondered by Alexie would adapt his book into a coherent movie.  It more or less stays true to the character of the book, if not the style.

I've seen it in Alberta, even outside the french hamlets.

I got inspired to read some Asterix from my collection. LOL that shit is so awesome.

Some of my favorites were:
VIII (with the Brits)
X (where they join the [foreign] Legion)
XI (where they go to Auvergne for the spas)
XVI (Switzerland)
XXIII (where Obelix becomes mass producer of menhirs, causing a major economic crisis in the Empire - good lesson about economics)
XXVI (searching oil in the Middle East - the scene where they keep being attacked by nomads all at war with one another was on the spot)

Prince Caspian- Surprisingly good.
It must have been near 3 hours long but I didn't really get bored in it, after the initial set up its just battles, battles, battles.

Also I caught the first half of American Splendor (was on too late to see it all).
I was watching this and was unsure if it was a real biopic or a faux one. I've never heard of the comic its based on. There were hints it was real (Felix the Cat guy) but it wasn't really until they footage of the old 80s TV show with the visibly younger 'real' main character that I realised it.
Would like to see the rest, it was pretty good.

Only thing bad about English Asterix(might be true for every other translation) is that it seems to lose much of it's more subtle commentary on society.

Decided to watch The Breakfast Club again last night.

Watched Reservoir Dogs on Blu-ray last night.  Even better than I remembered it, and thankfully the transfer to Blu-ray was not half-assed   I think I only paid $10 for the movie, to boot.
