It's not only great as we remember, it's even better

Yiesma's crazy antics and her villainy are a good contrast to Kusco's nonchalant cruelty. She's actually malicious as where Kuzco is just a jerk, both for no reason other than they can be but it's a nice way to say: "Yeah, this guy is a jerk but it could actually be worse". Plus the adult jokes they sneak in are priceless.

We used to always bring this movie on road trip vacations so we could watch it both on the way there and on the way back. One trip, we forgot it at my grandparents house on a 20-hour drive home. So, my siblings and I did what any family would do and just quoted the ENTIRE MOVIE, _VERBATIM_ instead.

The fact that Kuzco doesn't mention anything about his childhood at all adds to the lightheartedness of it all. He's obviously an orphan, but either his parents both died before he could remember (hence the plethora of hands giving him a new toy, since the parents weren't around) or they were always very distand (as standard emperors) and so he didn't even notice the difference when they died. The fact that this isn't ever mentioned, and that the only parent figure, Yzma, is hellbent on killing him, makes him an extremely interesting character, completely lonely and completely happy, perfectly fullfilled by his power and possessions, and even spending time with someone that's being evicted from his ancestor's house can't sway him from his sociopathic egoism. That, until he realizes that he was way happier with Patcha on the road that he ever was, because he was the only one that actually cared for him. Great movie overall XD

No mention of Yzma? She instantly became my favorite since I saw the movie.

I remember being afraid of the endlessly large spaces in this movie. Like, everywhere you go (in the castle especially) there are endless pits and such. Stuff's scary for a child.

We kind of get an explanation for Kuzco's attitude. He was spoiled as a kid and partially raised eyzma.

What I want to know is how they went from developing a more typical Disney musical, Kingdom of the Sun, and decided that absurdist comedy was the better way to go.

Bro I absolutely adore this film, like the people who made this gave so much effort to make it feel like they just wanted to make a random whimsical comedy

I think the clever writing, fantastic animation quality, and colorful and captivating art direction all give this movie a strong foundation, and then the cast of multiple incredibly talented actors add so much in their delivery and energy to this film that make it come off as passion piece.

If you want a suggestion do is Danny Phantom as good as we remember, if you want to give your thoughts on the series. I would like to see your opinion of it

I think I've seen this movie about 2 thousand times unironically in my life. It's just so fucking awesome.

This film is Shrek but was released one year earlier and it's Disney. One of my favourite Disney films to date. It even had a PS1 game by the same studio behind the Croc games, and it's one of the best movie-based games I've played on the machine.

Oh Yeah, It's All Coming Together!

The animation is so good. I was literally laughing at the scenes without audio as you talked over them

We are being spoiled with Lowart this week [:

I've been giggling through most of the clips you've shown. THAT'S the mark of a great comedy!

Come to this channel for long form, very thought out, in depth analysis of shows and movies from my childhood, and the fact this video only needs 7 minutes to come to its conclusion is priceless.

So some simplistic and angular character design adds a bombastic, snappy energy to the action but also helps comedy? Yeah, Disney usually did more grounded expensive flair beforehand!

David spade’s best work

One of my top 3 Disney movies along with Hercules and Wreck It Ralph. All of them were exiled from their homes and were given the opportunity to have everything they desired, and they all gave it up to return to their status quo, but were all changed forever. Beautiful movies.

Oh right the emperor, the emperor for groovin', the emperor made specifically to groovin the emperor, emperor's groove. Ya got us covered.

I know there are deeper, better animated or more emotionally powerful movies from Disney, but as someone who values comedy and, above all, endearing characters. I really think The Emperor's New Groove is probably my favorite disney movie.

There is a banned Disney Documentary called “The Sweatbox” revolving around the production of “The Kingdom of The Sun” the original title of “The Emperor’s New Groove” with behind the scenes footage Disney didn’t want to released.

Our tastes dont always seem to line up, especially recently with ben 10 breaking you and you not liking season 4 of young justice, so its really nice to see a vid from you where I can wholeheatedly agree with you on it

How could you possibly forget about Pacha, he's the entire heart of the movie

I haven't seen this movie in weeks...time to watch it again

He's trying to take you down the path of righteousness. I'll take you down the path that *rocks*

I loved the movie and the tv series, great video!

I can’t ever watch this movie again bc I never forgot it! It’s makes me so sad! I loved this movie so much!

Yzma's song is actually amazing and it deserved to have it it's lyrics updated so fit it's new plot

I like how you said it was carefully created, but in reality they just wung it with half the movie, lol. I just wing life, so that's probably why I like it so much too

Love this movie, one of my favorites to go back to if I need a good laugh.

Kronk is a way of life

Awesome video, this month of Lowart has been great!

YES

I keep forgetting this is a movie, I mostly just remember the TV Show because I spent more time watching that than the movie

the show was by far my favoite!

can i say, kuzco is my favourite disney princess

Yes

This video has such a great sense of irony given the film’s VVEEERRRRRRYY rocky production

Third video I've seen so far. Liking the channel, buddy. 😎👍

Best move they ever made come on now.

This movie was brilliant in ti's simplicity. And I love it

Doing an early comment & thumbs up minutes from upload, before I even fishished the runtime, to communicate to the algorithm I like this video and its topic.

Thanks for this.

Disney funniest movie

Very well said. One of my favorite movies!

I got 2 words for ya: I fully agree.

Say it with me K U Z C O Kuzco, Kuzco lets go.

yes

Great Video! You should also check out the spin off show to this movie (if you haven't already in your planned vids lmao)

it IS a classic

I need another Disney production beeing this funny and wonderful. I don't think I would mind a live action or a back to normal Disney production beeing in this universe and give us lots of Izma or heck just Izma the movie but it probably won't be as good as this so yeah we're probably better off without ...

This show was my childhood

I never appreciated pacha's role in the movie as a tween when I first seen this movie (I've watched the tv show first 😅) He really is the glue of that holds the narrative and heart of this movie

I’m still surprised how coherent this movie is considering the absolute clusterfuck that happened behind the scenes with it

Its the best thing Disney has, or ever will, produce

don't even remember it being that good I might need to rewatch

The movie is amazing, but something you didn't touch on is that the score for the film matches EVERY SINGLE STEP of the story. It's so far above and beyond that once you notice it, it recontextualizes the quality of all other kids/disney/musical movies. Play it again, but close your eyes.

Doesn't have a tragic backstory to justify his actions? He was raised by Yzma. That's absolutely tragic and explains him being a selfish and crappy person. On a serious note, yeah, it's good that it is only mentioned in passing as a gag and not played off as an actual justification.

Yepppppppppp

I miss movies that didn't need a cinematic universes or a series tie in to be culturally respectful

It’s still a great movie

Kuzco in Kingdom Hearts when?

Short answer: yes

Yes it is.

I thought it was pretty good A shame Eartha Kitt isn't around, anymore. I'm sad, now

Well he have a spoiled backstory and we don't see his parents, that is sorta a sad backstory. IF his parents were still alive it shows they were prety neglectfull in the upbringing and with spoiling part, it can be seen as a form of abuse.

The movie has a lot of parts that don’t make sense but the movie is so funny the weird cartoony parts just add to the comedy

Great movie though simple if really well done there's a greatness to it plus this movie led to a great series that could've lasted much longer

“The charachters don’t go through a lot of change” “We see Kuzco go from a meanie to a decent guy” Pick a lane bro?

first btw the answer is yes, yes it is

just 6 minutes?

The answer is yes

Why do modern Disney movies blow 🌬️. They used to be good like this one

I could see a bad sequel that used too much Kronk and made his presence feel tired instead of just the right amount.

12 likes?

lol you missremembered everything

probably not.. also first

I respect your opinion but I don't like the movie a bit due to the main character being a asshole to other people but still I do like some of the jokes in the movie i do appreciate the movie a bit.

Unfortunately it's missing waifu bait and therefore el dorado beats it out

Personally, I think it's very overrated. The main problem for me is Kuzco. He's too arrogant for my liking.

yes, kronk is a gigachad. end of argument

YES
