Arthur and the Invisibles (or Arthur and the Minimoys in non-anglophone territories) is a part-animated, part-live action feature film adaptation of the 2002 children's book Arthur et les Minimoys, and the 2003 sequel novel Arthur et la Cité Interdite, which had been written by filmmaker Luc Besson, who also directed the film. Released on November 29, 2006, in France; December 29, 2006, in North America, and February 2, 2007, in the United Kingdom. With a budget of €65 million, Arthur and the Invisibles was briefly the most expensive French film production until it was surpassed by Asterix at the Olympic Games.The story occurs in 1960. Ten-year-old Arthur is living with his grandmother in a quiet country house. His grandfather Archibald has recently gone missing and Arthur sees little of his parents. His grandmother entertains him by reading stories to him of his grandfather's adventures in Africa. One of these stories is about the friendship of the tall, Masai-like tribe called the Bogo Matassalai with the Minimoys, tooth-sized, elfin beings whom they believe to be their counterparts. Arthur eventually encounters a tribe of Minimoys nearby, aiding them in their attempts to thwart a threat poised to destroy them.A sequel film, Arthur and the Revenge of Maltazard, was produced and received limited release in 2009. Its story directly led into the third and final installment, Arthur and the War of the Two Worlds, in 2010. These are based on the third and fourth books in the series, Arthur et la vengeance de Maltazard and Arthur et la guerre des deux mondes.7 years after the end of the trilogy, a short lived All-CGI Cartoon adaptation produced by Studio 100 was released.And another 5 years later, a Darker and Edgier meta spin-off to the films was released in June 29 in France called Arthur: The Curse, produced by Besson. | |

Instant Expert: Arthur and Darkos at driving. After all, it "can't be any harder than driving a [bug]", never mind that a car's controls would be completely different from that of an insect. | |

Totem Pole Trench | |
| Arthur and the Invisibles / int_14a44e40 | comment |
Totem Pole Trench: A weird case — the Minimoy King at first appears as an imposing figure (for 2 mm-tall characters, at least), but it's soon revealed he's no taller than the average Minimoy, but riding on top of a Yeti-like humanoid with another ferret-like creature standing in for a long beard and hiding the King's body. | |

Does This Remind You of Anything?: The reason for Malthazar's disease and deformation is because he gave his powers to a venomous insect while she did the same via a kiss, but the way it's explained makes it sound like a G-Rated STD. | |

Failed a Spot Check: So they are gonna climb down, and Arthur takes the lace Selenia's top is held up with as Betameche says he has no rope. Which makes her cover herself. Later they have a rope from the very item he claimed that doesn't have a rope, so she never really had to embarrass herself. Why didn't they really check if they had a rope first? | |

| Arthur and the Invisibles / int_46784617 | comment |
Date Rape: G-rated version. Malthazard claims he was extremely drunk and didn't consent to the kiss with the insect that left him rotting alive. Selenia has little sympathy for him, saying he shouldn't have gotten so drunk as to have been taken advantage of in the first place. | |

Really 700 Years Old: At one point it is mentioned that Selenia is 1000. This is glossed over by the time she enters her relationship with Arthur. All of them are incredibly old, though- 300 is considered young. This more because 1000 Minimoy years are actually 10 regular years. | |

Inevitable Waterfall: The heroes lands in a stream in a half-nutshell, and naturally there's a waterfall ahead. Made more dangerous by the fact than Minimoys can't swim. They escape thanks to Selenia's lace. Happens again later when they are in a section of straw. This time they go down the waterfall, but are only a bit shaken. | |

Two-Part Trilogy | |
| Arthur and the Invisibles / int_8ed601a6 | comment |
Two-Part Trilogy: The sequels. In the U.K., they were edited together into one film (Arthur and the Great Adventure), while the U.S. packaged them strictly as a two-pack on DVD. Particularly egregious considering the second movie is pretty much filler and the establishment of Chekhov's guns, and only exists for the sake of setting up the third. | |

Bowdlerization: The Weinstein release cut out all of the "questionable" content, including some important plot points, leaving several egregious jump cuts. This to the point where the entire romance between Selenia and Arthur is completely taken out, making her sudden attraction to him at the last minutes seem to come out of nowhere. | |

Mouse World | |
| Arthur and the Invisibles / int_a8298592 | comment |
Mouse World: The village of the Minimoys. It's known that there are other tiny sentient humanoid creatures, but it is unknown what the scale of their societies truly is. | |

And I Must Scream | |
| Arthur and the Invisibles / int_a8a04f6f | comment |
And I Must Scream: Maltazard is literally rotting to death due to having his Sacred First Kiss stolen by a venomous insect, leaving him in horrible pain and doomed to die unless he takes Selenia's first kiss in turn. | |

Ms. Fanservice | |
| Arthur and the Invisibles / int_b032e4ed | comment |
Ms. Fanservice: Selenia, big time (even more so in the non-Weinstein original and the sequels). Might have something to do with her being voiced by Mylene Farmer in France, as she is a huge sex symbol over there. She's voiced by Madonna in the English version. | |

Fate Worse than Death | |
| Arthur and the Invisibles / int_b1346878 | comment |
Fate Worse than Death: A particularly G-rated example; the evil M will spend the last of his days trapped in a glass jar, taunted by tiny slices of chocolate pie every Sunday until he starves to death. | |

Mayfly–December Romance | |
| Arthur and the Invisibles / int_b1efb7a7 | comment |
Mayfly–December Romance: Arthur is originally off put to his feelings for Selina after he hears she is 1000 years old and he is only 10. However later she tells him that Minimoy years are set by the development of the Royal Flower, making her around the same age as Arthur in human years. | |

Alliterative Name | |
| Arthur and the Invisibles / int_be009bbc | comment |
Alliterative Name: In the Norwegian dub, Evil M is referred to as "Motbydelige M". The word motbydelige actually means "disgusting" rather than evil, which would be "onde". | |

Double Standard Rape: Female on Male | |
| Arthur and the Invisibles / int_c289826f | comment |
Double Standard Rape: Female on Male: G-Rated Sex version. Malthazard is attempting to steal Selenia's Sacred First Kiss to use her powers to heal himself, which is understandably portrayed as a bad thing. But when Malthazard explains his backstory and how his Sacred First Kiss was stolen from him when he was too drunk to consent to it, leaving him literally rotting alive in the aftermath, Selenia expresses no sympathy for him, saying it was his fault for being so drunk he could be taken advantage of. | |

| Arthur and the Invisibles / int_c335b9ec | comment |
Irony: Arthur's dad decides to take a stand and have an active role in his son's life and safety, starting with exterminating a nearby beehive so Arthur's bee allergy is never triggered. If he would have succeeded, he would have killed Arthur as well. | |

Shout-Out | |
| Arthur and the Invisibles / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: In the first film, while dance-fighting Malthazard's minions, Betameche does the Batusi. The second and third films are rife with pop culture references, including a disguised Darkos meeting a young George Lucas and serving as the inspiration for Darth Vader. Actually, with an inversion: "He is my father!" | |
