What did you think of this film?
Discover a playful toy-like world of invention featuring flying machines, kings, queens and sneaky spies, where nothing seems to go right for the world’s greatest inventor, and he is always running out of time. At the centre of it all is the audacious and ever questioning Princess Marguerite (Daisy Ridley) who is the key to solving Leonardo’s (Stephen Fry) quest for the meaning of life.
Are There Any Extras During The Credits? Yes
- Leonardo (voiced by Stephen Fry) speaks to the audience and says “I’m trying not to sound like Alec Guinness, but ‘these aren’t the droids you want.'” while waving his arm like Obi-wan Kenobi.
- There are a lot of snarky comments throughout the credits. When the first two producers are named, there’s a pencil sketch of them with one asking the other to look in the couch for spare funding. Under the credits for Jason and the Argonauts animation, the quote “Skeleton fight! Need I say more?” is attributed to Leonardo da Vinci. Someone was credited as someone’s “Gin Rummy Partner.”
- At at the end, there’s a disclaimer saying no puppets were hurt during filming.
