[edit] Duran Duran or Durand Durand?
- Was the villain called Duran Duran or Durand Durand? I've always thought it was Duran Duran. Lee M 03:26, 22 Feb 2004 (UTC)

- The booklet accompanying the Region 2 DVD clearly states that the villain is Duran Duran. Lee M 04:46, 28 Dec 2004 (UTC)
- The booklet is official then, I take it? Is the name in the credits spelled "Duran" or "Durand"? (This keeps getting changed on the Duran Duran article so I'd like to have evidence one way or the other.) IMDb, Amazon, Channel 4, ABC Network, and other such sites say "Durand" (although they could all be getting it from IMDb). I can't find an official site for either the comic book or the movie; and Google tests are useless because the band biases the answers. Please help me out on this!

- To answer CatherineMunro's questions, the Region 1 DVD booklet uses "Duran Duran". The opening credits of the Region 1 DVD only identifies the actors, not their roles. The closing credits of the Region 1 DVD does not give a cast list. There are no subtitles for the Region 1 DVD. So, unfortunately, there does not seem to be much evidence either way; that the DVD booklet uses "Duran Duran" is not totally conclusive since the DVD booklet was written years after the original making of the movie, by which time the band "Duran Duran" was already well-known, which might have led the booklet writers to use that spelling. —Lowellian (reply) 17:01, September 9, 2005 (UTC)

- I wrote to the owner of this Jean-Claude Forest site, who is apparently connected with the artist's estate. He says "In the French version it definitely is Durand-Durand with a "d". But the "d" is silent so it would sound just like Duran-Duran -- which it does in the movie." So I think that's our definitive answer. Thanks! — Catherine\talk 06:44, 11 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Dub of Black Queen?
- Was the Black Queen dubbed by Joan Greenwood? Coulda sworn it was Fenella Fielding, though I admit they both have extremely seductive voices! Lee M 02:16, 20 May 2004 (UTC)

- The booklet accompanying the Region 2 DVD clearly states that the Black Queen "sounds like" Fenella Fielding. Lee M 04:46, 28 Dec 2004 (UTC)

- The Black Queen sounds so much like Fenella Fielding that it's either her, or someone doing a very good impression of her -- her voice is very distinctive. -- The Anome 23:32, May 6, 2005 (UTC)

It was not Fenella. I asked her a couple of years ago! I believed it was her for years also. Maybe Joan Greenwood. They sounded very similar.
