Anybody know if an English-language version of Les visiteurs (1993)
has been produced?

Thanks.

Produced, yes; released, no. Miramax arranged for Mel Brooks to
supervise a dubbed-into-English version of the French film, but it was
poorly received in test screenings and never was released to the
public, as far as I can determine.

Do you mean a dubbed version? THere's a subtitled DVD (or is it OP?).
on a side note: There was a Les Visiteurs 2. I never saw it but I
sorta want to. I really REALLY liked the first one and I actually
found teh US remake ok, as opposed to TERRIBLE which was what I was
afeared of.

Yes, as in lip-synching.

So did I, but not so much the second time. It would probably be
better if translated.

Thanks to the replies.

I saw the English dubbed version on a flight in Europe back in 1993 or 1994. It was great. I've been trying to find that version ever since. I think I was on British Airways, but could have been United. I've been looking for a dubbed version ever since but haven't been able to stumble upon it.

There has to be some airline tapes kicking about somewhere with the dubbed version.
