Have you watched Asterix: The Secret of the Magic Potion?
Favourite characters?
This is a French film, with an English version, but I watched the Hungarian translation.
In the forest outside the village of indomitable Gauls, the druid Getafix falls from a tree, breaking his foot. Worried about his mortality, he resolves to find a successor to inherit the secret recipe of his magic potion which imbues the user with superhuman strength. He is escorted to a meeting of his fellow druids by Asterix and Obelix, while a creative young village girl named Pectine has stowed away in his cauldron. The meeting is disrupted by Getafix's nemesis, Sulfurix (Demonix in the English dub), who wreaks havoc before being chased away. Getafix then travels throughout Gaul to meet with aspiring young druids in his quest for a successor. He is accompanied by Chief Vitalstatistix and the village's other men, with the exception of Cacofonix, who remains behind with the village women and a reserve supply of magic potion to repel attacks by Roman legionaries.

...you know, I feel like I've known Asterix and Obelix all my life. Like, from way before I knew about Ninja Turtles and Mario and all, I have primordial memories of Asterix, as either a cartoon movie or a comic when I was a little little kid. Only I can't puzzle out what it could be.
...I should ask Mom. She's an elementary school librarian, plus she's the one who showed me all the weird things from back then that haunt my dreams, like 'Unico' and 'Adventures of Mark Twain', and that Raggedy Ann and Andy movie. She'd know if anyone would.
