I'm just wondering if anyone has noticed this - on the trailer for this movie, the tiny people are called 'Invisibles' throughout. However, in the movie I saw (both in cinema and TV-on-demand), they're called 'Minimoys'. Are there two different English soundtracks, or is the trailer just different from the feature?

I don't believe this change would have a drastic impact on the actual movie content though - except perhaps the lip sync!
Sorry if this is in the wrong place - feel free to move if it is.

Wasn't this movie made by a French guy? Luc Besson? And the French name of the movies would be:

"Arthur et les Minimoys" the French title

"Arthur and the Invisibles" the English title

There would be the reason for the confusion. [Razz]

{Even though Minimoy is a made up name by the director himself and I guess the English distribution company decided to change it}

Yes, the Weinstein Company did make changes to the english version of the picture.
