Audio problem: When they arrive in Spain, Passepartout speaks to a Spaniard, whose heavy foreign accent shows he's not Spanish (it was Italian born and USA citizen Constanzo "Jose" Greco). It is so obvious and lame that his Spanish voice was dubbed with a real Andalusian accent in the Spanish release.
