Quest for Camelot/Trivia


 * Executive Meddling: The film was originally meant to be a much darker, faithful adaptation of the book.
 * Before the executives were through meddling, some main characters were renamed after their children. Kayley was originally Lynette in the book -- as in Arthurian legend.
 * According to Lauren Faust, the movie was going to be a PG-13 adventure flick. However, Warner Bros was more interested in profit, which led to the movie's Disneyfication.
 * Hey, It's That Voice!/All-Star Cast: The actors mentioned above, but the film also features some famous musicians as the characters' singing voices: Andrea Corr of the Corrs as Kayley, Bryan White as Garret, Steve Perry as King Arthur, and Celine Dion as Lady Juliana.
 * Don't forget Jaleel "Sonic the Hedgehog and Steve Urkel" White as Bladebeak.
 * And Kayley is voiced by Terri Schuester.
 * Ruber is played by Norman Stansfield.
 * Solitaire is Kayley's mother.
 * The Griffin has the voice of Serge.
 * Also, King Arthur is voiced by James Bond.
 * There is also Sir John Gielgud as Merlin...who gets all of two lines. Why did they even bother? Granted, the story was more about Kayley and if he had gotten involved it would have been a major Curb Stomp Battle...but at the same time one wonders why Merlin did absolutely nothing to help other than sending Ayden to find Excalibur (and, it's implied, to be Garret's friend and helper in the forest). Especially if "witches" were involved in giving Ruber his potion. A lot more potential plot which would have actually justified casting such a well-known actor in the role...all gone to waste.
 * Frank Welker voiced Ayden.
 * Al Roker is a knight.
 * Name's the Same: Not the only Forbidden Forest out there.
 * Non-Singing Voice: Most of the cast, possibly because this wasn't initially written as a musical, so whether a given performer could sing would not have been a concern at the time he/she was cast. In addition, some of the original actors can sing, but it's possible that the songs were added in so late that either the contracts were already set in stone or the actors were no longer available.
 * Old Shame: According to Lauren Faust, all the animators (herself included) disliked working on this movie. And pretended that it never happened due to it being planned out as an animated feature for grown ups, but had a heavy dose of Executive Meddling.
