I mean their "both" scene is literal motto of bisexuality

“If you were a half Mexican, half Venezuelan bisexual...” As weirdly specific as that is... yeah actually

The gays: We love them The lesbians: We love Chel The bis: YES

me, a polyamourous bisexual who loved this movie as a kid: so THAT'S where it all started, i see

The scene where they are both naked in the water has a lot of 'Two bros chillin in a hot tub, five feet apart cause they're not gay' vibes

"Are they gay? More like are they TOO gay?" is now my daily motto.

This movie is a bisexual classic I fell for all three of the leads

I was a small child with no explicit knowledge of same-sex relationships and I always assumed that they were a couple.

Two male protags, non stop touching, constant emotions, weirdly skimpy clothing and a soundtrack by ELTON JOHN. it couldn't be more GAY

For years, *years* as a child I genuinely thought that Chel, Tulio and Miguel all ran off and got married. I didn’t know about monogamy. I just thought that was the way it was lmao

Back when I was a closeted lesbian, I was VERY attracted to the heterosexual love interest in this movie

chel: -being created by white dudes full of stereotypes to be a heterosexual love interest- chel: -also being my bisexual awakening-

I remember when so many people on Tumblr agreed that Flynn Rider aka Eugene Fitzherbert from Tangled was the lovechild of Tulio and Miguel

“he’s the optimistic lighthearted one of the duo” *_bottom_*

After you labeled Miguel as “The Bottom” and Tulio as “Realistic Dick”, I was 100% expecting Chel to get a little marker of “The Top”

I grew up thinking Tulio and Miguel were boyfriends and that Chel became their girlfriend, like, for both of them. Little did I know I was shipping a polyamorous relationship. ❤️

big bisexual moment as a child was mentally arguing on weather miguel or tulio was hotter then deciding it was chel...

“unknown to cortez, his ship wouldn’t be the only one sailing that day” ICONIC WOW

"Imagine if one of those characters were a woman" Me: * proceedes to imagine *both* as women * Me: Wait, that's not it-

I'm utterly shocked you didn't include the scene in the first gay montage when they're running around aimlessly, but managed to find eachother again and like... Run into eachothers arms. Tulio like gently holds Miguel's waist lmao it was only for a short moment but still.

in chel's defense, she was this latina lesbian's gay awakening

Our history teachers would say "they were close friends"

Apparently there was a deleted scene where they’d kissed but was cut out, and some people with good eyes saw a frame left over,

alex: are they gay? more like, are they _too_ gay? i cracked up

Guys, I'm getting the feeling that Alex is trying to tell us that he's not straight? Idk just a thought

Ah, yes… the original red and blue gays.

Chel is not "another heterosexual love interest", she's THE Chel, the "that one curvy gal with the epic hips from El Dorado" type of character, right? The finest piece of a** in every possible timeline ya know what I'm saying? Her voice, shapes, eyes and playful lusting awakened puberty in a whole generation of kids.

They are so gay even the horse is shocked 12:58 when Tulio suddenly becomes straight and it had only known them for like 4 days

just to remind you guys that in the original script miguel and tulio were supposed to be lovers, partners in every sense. miguel calling tulio “darling” and doing other cute stuff throughout the whole movie (recorded, but cut) but the studio quickly cut the idea down. the animators snuck in a tribute to the original idea making them kiss for a quick frame before jumping off the ledge. so in conclusion: yes, they’re totally gay 😌✌️

"I didnt sign up for animated Spanish a$$" that would be great for merch-

i rewatched the movie recently and forgot how much literal eye sex happens between miguel and tulio- like oh my word. i love this movie and whilst i wished we got to have a purely miguel x tulio love story, as a bisexual female i wasnt complaining seeing 2 dreamy animated men swinging both ways. this movie is iconic and ill always love it.

*“Omg what is this- Is this my mom’s Telenovelas-”*

not even the Spanish Inquisition could expect how gay this movie was

I’m actually pretty sure that Chel was bi too. My gaydar never fails me.

i always thought they were just two Bi Bros platonically supporting each other. and headcanoned that miguel has a crush on tulio but lowkey bc he's 99% tulio doesn't feel the same, which is fine bc as long as they're bro's it's gucci

Easy: bisexual and polyamorous, add Chel and it’s a throuple💖

I can imagine the upsurge in fanfiction that this will start again and honestly, I'm here for it

During my repressed bisexual childhood, I was obsessed with this movie and couldn't quite articulate why.. "No really, dad, I just really like the music" or "its just such a cool adventure, mom, it's even kinda historical, nothing to see here.." Now I can embrace the bisexual polyamory in all its glory

"But we all no gays don't have a sense of direction" I guess you could say.... There not thinking straight

"you made my life an adventure "you made my life rich" is so fucking romantic my husband and I say it to each other

This movie magically appears on the shelves of kids who find themselves gay later in life.

So, in a nutshell... Filmmakers: Let's make it gay Producers: NO, insert hot girl Filmmakers: Okay, then it's a love triangle but she chooses both so it's poly-not-poly and ALSO they're gay. Producers: **clueless** ...proceed But hey, I still think it worked out for the best, because even if by accident we get some really good bisexual/gay representation from two main characters. That, and I'm bi too so I have absolutely no objection to Chel.

Im bisexual And I watched this my entire childhood

Tulio and Miguel calling each other “partners” really remind me of Persona 4... are Yosuke Hanamura and the protagonist of Persona 4 gay?

I WAS DRESSED STRAIGHT I'M A DISAPPOINTMENT at least I turned the frogs gay.

As a child I felt so betrayed with Tulio’s entanglement.

My professor from college confirmed that there were huge issues during production related to this.

Miguel → Gay Dom Tullio →Bisexual Power Bottom Chel →Hetero Dom And both Miguel and Chel are in a Poly relationship with Tullio

"Maybe they should have made Miguel, Tulio, and Chel should be gay polyamorous pirates" *Isn't that just Sinbad?*

Even my 8yo straight ass KNEW they're together soooooo it must be true: It really is THE TEXT.

i like how they dont have to define it. they just love who they want to love. How they want to love.

"We all know gays have no sense of direction." ...I mean, I personally preference my identity as a Pan/Ace orientation. But it is true at least once I've gotten lost in NYC while going in a straight line. So I guess your sentiment is valid.

My uncle worked on this movie--he was an animator. fun fact: My uncle was very gay. I have some original sketches and cells of first drafts of Miguel and the actual city of El Dorado and they're probably the most important thing he left to me. EDIT SINCE PEOPLE ARE MISSING THE LINK IN THE REPLIES: nickpic.host/album/wait-no-longer.52zLJ theres the album.

I wish I could accidentally commit into a polyamorous relationship

Yeah, I saw this in theaters as a kid back then. I was in middle school, and knew. And being a girl who just really, really wanted a gay couple of any kind in an animated movie, (they were virtually unheard of back then), I took what I could get. XD

remember guys *straight is not included in the initial default settings*

I used to watch this movie religiously and I can not believe this was a big ass sign that I was *Gay*. At the time I never realized how gay this movie was.

I was thinking "wow, i need something gay", and then i got this notification

1:08 *Two bros, chilling in a hot tub~ 2 feet apart because they ARE gay*

DUDE YOU"RE VENEZUELAN AND GAY??? IVE NEVER MET SOMEONE LIKE ME

False information! Both of them are bottom, Chel is the true top in this relationship

I've been needing my daily dose of the Homosexual Agenda. This should satisfy me for a month.

i like how only like 20 minutes into the movie they're already confessing their love to each other.

the fact that this was my brand movie as a little kid and years after im like "wait im bi"

Now that all the gays and bisexuals are here, yall can't convince me Tulio and Miguel aren't Flynn/Eugene parents in Tangled... Like that's straight up FACT Edit: I hate to be that person but thanks for the likes??? I didn't expect so many people to also headcanon this!

They go in the distance, she finds a girlfriend, Miguel and Tulio finally get married, the end.

"Discovered for being street rats" lol. I believe Aladdin & Flynn Ryder landed in the similar situations.

"the bro lifestyle" shoot i love this channel

They're married. Period. Next question?

7:37 they aren't 5 feet apart, that's all the proof you need

Unpopular opinion: I actually liked this movie

"Because women having their own independent arcs is too hard." that is why I hate that Steve Rogers traveled back in time to Peggy, because it basically makes the entire series of Agent Carter stupid, seeing as that never happened if Steve went back. Also, Peggy is amazing enough to NOT need a love interest to be cool okay

Anyone who says "Guys, this is straight. They're just friends" go to your friend, touch them at every opportunity while gazing into their eyes lengthily and constantly. Change clothes in front of them and just have a long conversation with no pants or underwear. See how long it it goes before an awkward conversation about just being friends becomes necessary. (It won't take long) Edit: for people who dont understand what "and" means, all of these things must occur because just one of them alone is mot necessarily anything, but all of them together is incredibly flirtatious. (Edited for my drunk misspelling/grammatical errors. ) Btw i had a thing for Chel when i first saw this movie. It should have triggered the realization that I was not straight. Edit #2 Holy. Shit. 1,800+ comments?! How? Thanks! I'll drink another beer(or 6) and accidentally piss more people off in all your names. Btw people still don't know what "and" means. I'm not versed on all other cultures, but maybe there's somewhere where being handsy while staring longingly into each others eyes at every opportunity is just super platonic. It wouldn't be in the US, nor with my Hispanic family from Bolivia, nor with my Japanese (as in they are from and live there) friends, nor with my Mexican girlfriend's family. But none of that is 16th century Spain, so maybe they all made platonic "fuck me" eyes at their friends lol I'm willing to concede that I don't know.

Even as a child I got massive "something is going on in here" vibes and now, as a not straight disaster, I can confirm, I was correct

This video is literally my favorite comfort video

You could almost say.... Are they gay? Or european? 😉 Sorry I just had to 😅

I was a poor, bisexual latina and I watched The Road to El Dorado like eyeball crack

I'm demisexual and polyamorous. I can't express how much I love this movie! It's a PG kid movie, so innocent enough for my demisexual brain, but ends with a beautiful polyamorous relationship (imo). Perfect for me. Wish there was more content like this. Polyamorous movies and shows are usually too sexual for me, so it sucks.

Don’t forget Tzekel Kan’s Jaguar chasing them and saying “I KNOW WHAT YOU ARE”

I watched this ages ago and the expression on my homophobic parents faces while watching was PRICELESS

God what I wouldn't give to get a version of this movie that's exactly the same but with all the "darling"s kept in. I'm that desperate.

I love how dreamworks has been creating gay things even back then

The only thing I know for sure is that as a kid this was my favorite movie; I had rewatched it like 12 times(with the Spanish dub), I even learned and transcripted the songs into a notebook. I was fascinated with Miguel and Tulio and their dynamic, and the movie's atmosphere and aesthetic. Fast-forward six years to me having an identity and sexual crisis (bisaster alert!) because I realize I had a hugely embarrassing crush. On my best friend. The kind of friend that you make alter-egos with to make up stories in the middle of class (specifically, a death angel and a demon rising a werewolf. Yes this was before we knew about Good Omens) and laughing at a fly apparently reading an information board while the rest of the class was still busy doing the test(we were smart girls). And when she got a boyfriend? Hahaha boy if you had saw my rage!! (internal rage, bc you know, conceal don't feel, don't let it show), it was like acid splashing around in my stomach. Miguel and Tulio just have the kind of dynamic I want in my life. I recently listen to the soundtrack and those songs are SO gay, so full references to Miguel and Tulio's relationship. My favorite is "Someday Out of the Blue". Anyway sorry for the rant, I really loved your video, thank you for making it!! Lots of love! 💕💕💕

The last time I watched this movie, my mum who was watching from the kitchen called out during the first montage, "is this movie just two gay guys running around the jungle with their horse?" and I almost choked to death on my dinner. So there's the verdict.

This movie and Sinbad were responsible for awakening a whole generation of bi’s and lesbians

Him: "Me gay? No, them!" (points at the screen) Me: (Cries in attacked gay enby)

14:20 : You mean, a gay peacock dance.

Can we make the stranded boat scene a part of gay culture? Like saying “you made my life an adventure “ is like confessing gay love while hiding it with heterosexual friendship and if the other party says “you made my life *r i c h* ” that means yeah im gay for you too

I loved the movie and was literally like in the first 20 minutes like, “wow, that’s pretty friendly guys. You sure you ain’t a bit not straight.”

*flashbacks to when my Spanish history teacher absolutely TRASHED this movie and gave a 10 min rant about it*

7:40 missed a good joke... TWO BROS~ CHILLIN IN A HOT TUB....

"subtext? its the text" 😭

As a kid, I swear I saw it! I was 4 and in my brain I was like "are these guys married? Yeah, yeah they are."

This took me two days to watch but was still the best commentary video I have ever watched Definitely subscribing

“Hello my fellow homosexuals” Lol I’m not, but keep living your best life guys gals and non binary pals. I support you!

As I child I was 100% sure they ended up in a poly relationship all because they all literally ran off into the sunset together.

As a little kid watching this even I could pick up on the bisexual vibes radiating off this movie. Pretty sure it was my bisexual awakening

Miguel looks like a beefy Kurt Cobain who likes to wear pirate shirts 🤣🤣🤣🤣 I Looooove that first time on your chanel, def subscribing

Such a great video dude! Nice work. The whole intro had me rolling!

I’ve never felt so flattered to be called a fellow gay I swear I’m straight asf, deadass
