You see, the thing about "Asterix: The Secret of the Magic Potion" (2018) IS that you can read this family movie through a post-colonial or an imperial framework and you could get valid answers to how the movie engages with resistance to an empire and cultural brokers/elites upholding empire ... but the movie and the motivation of its main villain only really makes complete and perfectly coherent sense if you accept that Demonix is Getafix's ex-boyfriend and he really never got over the fact that they had a terrible breakup and his ex got his shit together without him.
