For the 1989 animated film, see here.
- Alternative Joke Interpretation: There's a joke about one of Psychoanalytix's patients standing in an odd pose with the druid commenting "No one knows who this man thinks he is." The joke is that he's impersonating Napoleon (who hasn't been born yet) but viewers who themselves don't know would probably just see it as funny for that same reason.
- Signature Scene: Getafix getting crazy and amnesiac from the menhir knock, and the Roman legionary who has to taste his failed potions. In the animated adaptation, they're all that left from the original album, as the remainder of the story is from Asterix and the Soothsayer. In the short 4-D movie "Attention Menhir!" in the theme park, these scenes are also the core concept of the story.
- The Woobie: It's hard not to feel bad for the Roman legionary who's used as guinea pig for Getafix's random potions in the villagers' attempt to have the latter recover his memory and recreate the Super-Strength-granting magic potion.
