History WesternAnimation / TheTwelveTasksOfAsterix

** Ceasar also has to yell "SILENCE!" for the rowdy Gauls to stop babbling and listen to him.

* EvilLaugh: When Caesar tells the senate that the protagonists will have to face the priestesses of the "Isle of Pleasure", he bursts into a fit of demonic laughter -- accompanied by a [[NightmareFace Nightmare Face]] -- that sends his counselors (including Brutus) into a huddle, shivering.

** Caesar's group of counselors features Brutus, who constantly plays with a knife. Caesar remarks: "Stop playing with that knife, you'll end up hurting someone!" ironically referencing how Brutus was the leader of the senators who stabbed and killed the historical Caesar.

** Julius Caesar makes one, hair shaped as horns and EvilLaugh included, when he's informed that Asterix and Obelix are approaching the Isle of Pleasure, a place that is believed to be of no return. It even scares his counselors, including Brutus.

* MickeyMousing: The Place That Sends You Mad especially has music which speed varies depending on the action occurring on screen. It gets slower and slower as Asterix and Obelix are climbing the stairs and they become more and more exhausted. Then it gets much faster when they are climbing down, and punctuates their search for the A-38 permit as it gets frantic.

* EnthrallingSiren: The priestesses of the "Isle of Pleasure".

** Julius Caesar makes one, hair shaped as horns and EvilLaugh included, when he's informed that Asterix and Obelix are approaching the Isle of Pleasure, a place that is believed to be of no return. It even scares his counselors, including the very Brutus.

* TwitchyEye: Well, not an eye, but Obelix gets an ''ear'' twitch in annoyance as it becomes clear that the task of finding the A-38 permit is going to be very hard.

** A metro station appears briefly in the cave of the Beast. The [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alesia_(Paris_Metro) Alésia]] station, to be precise. (The location of Alesia, or rather certain characters' lack of knowledge of it, being a running gag in the comics.)

** A metro station appears briefly in the cave of the Beast. The [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alesia_(Paris_Metro) Alésia]] station, to be precise.

* SureLetsGoWithThat: You can actually hear Caius Pupus imply this when Asterix asks him if the 8th task (getting the A-38 permit from The Place That Makes You Mad) is a simple administrative formality.

** One of the Native Americans glimpsed during the second task is Oumpah-pah, protagonist from another comic strip series René Goscinny and Albert Uderzo worked on.

* KeyConfusion: The Roman who has to let the Gauls into the Colosseum for their final task runs into this problem when he has trouble finding the right key on his key ring. While going through the keys, he comes across a heart-shaped one and wonders, quite embarrassed, how that one got in with the rest. Eventually, Obelix gets tired of waiting and offers to help (in his [[OpenSaysMe ususal way]]).

* GettingCrapPastTheRadar: Plenty.
** Most of the "Isle of Pleasure" segment involves barely-clothed, busty women dancing.
** The goddess Venus is a naked woman covered with SceneryCensor.
** Once Caius Tiddlus moves to the Isle of Pleasure, he's tickled long enough that [[SomethingElseAlsoRises the wine in his hand launches into the sky]]. [[SarcasmMode Subtle]].

* {{Cloudcuckoolander}}: Near the end, the entire village (with the exception of Asterix and Getafix) appears to be this...

** Also, at the end of the "Isle of Pleasure" segment, Astérix jumps into the sea to follow Obélix... Leaving a trail of steam as soon as he touches the water.

* HighPressureEmotion: Asterix has a cloud of steam puffing above his head (just as his helmet wings drop down) when he starts to catch on that finding the A-38 permit is going to be ''very'' hard.

** Also, at the end of the "Isle of pleasure" ending, Astérix jumps into the sea to follow Obélix... Leaving a trail of steam as soon as he touches the water.

* EarnYourHappyEnding: Caius Tiddlus is rewarded with an eternal stay at the Isle of Pleasure and enjoy the everlasting presence of the beautiful priestesses at the end of the film.
* {{Enthralling Siren}}s: The priestesses of the "Isle of Pleasure".

* FantasticallyIndifferent: As you might expect, Asterix and Obélix are generally unfazed when dealing with various fantastic beings, creatures and people. In fact, the only thing that really bothers Obélix at all is the undead Roman garrison, since [[NoSell they are immaterial and can't be injured]].

* GreenIsUnnatural: The ghosts encountered in the 11th task are green.

* BigShutUp: Astérix does this to a Roman ghost who tries to explain himself to him.

** Most of the "Isle of pleasure" segment involves barely-clothed, busty women dancing.
** One of the gods seen is just a naked woman covered with SceneryCensor.

* MetronomicManMashing: What Cylindrix does to Obelix, in a rare case of him being on the losing end of a fight.

* ArtisticLicenceMythology: During the aforementioned scene of Caesar telling the story of Hercules, the last labor is stated to be "freeing Theseus from the Underworld". While Hercules did free Theseus from the underworld, that was not the actual labor; the labor was kidnapping Cerberus the guard dog of the Underworld. In the Polish dub, this is corrected and Caesar mentions this deed (even though, it doesn't match the image on the pottery).
