When it comes to discussing Kronk, a lot of people just call him the perfect himbo, with him being so likable while also being a complete airhead.

The line Kronk says when Yzma asks him how they got back to the palace ("You got me. By all accounts, it doesn't make sense") is even more fourth wall breaking in the Spanish dub. Instead, he answers "I don't know Yzma, I don't think it was due to the magic of cinema" xD

They literally fell into a plot hole, which is why they arrived at the same time. genius filmmaking.

the best thing to come out of the spin off cartoon was that we got a new "wrong lever" gag every episode

Fun Fact: In the scene where Pacha is carrying Kuzco through the jungle, Pacha and Kuzco discuss Kuzco having low blood sugar. This is an in-joke about the fact that David Spade, who plays Kuzco, is diabetic in real life.

This movie is the reason I yell “you threw of my groove” abruptly

The part where Kronk is doing his own theme music was completely improvised by the voice actor, and they left it in an animated it anyway because it was gold

Can you believe that this movie started life as a completely straight-played Disney Musical about the Incas? Crazy to think about. Also, Patrick Warburton as Kronk makes this movie; no wonder the direct-to-DVD Sequel is all about him.

God, Kronk and Yzma carry this movie even harder than I remember. They're the best parts by far.

Fun fact: When the guard turned into a cow and was excused the supposed inside joke the animators had was that he was named Ward

I believe this movie had a lot of jokes and moments where the voice actors just said whatever and the animators animated it. It’s pretty funny. For example, “that’s my voice?” from Yzma was just the voice actress’ reaction to the voice effect placed on her voice

Kronk is the peak example of a himbo where he's so dumb in the most likeable way. At no moment does it come across as annoying or frustrating like later seasons patrick. All the jokes revolving around him hit and he's just so precious.

This movie is why "Pull the lever Kronk. WRONG LEVER!" stuck with me for two decades.

That Willie Nelson joke got me. Also, I love how Kuzco isn’t portrayed as dumb or incompetent, just childish and immature. He says some clearly intelligent things, he just doesn’t apply them cause he never needed to

Fun fact: The old man who gets thrown out of the window is voiced by John Fiedler, the original voice actor of Piglet in Winnie the Pooh.

Something serious that I really like about this movie is that, with Kuzco being a teenager in this movie, he not only learns how to be a good person from Pacha, but he also ends up finding a father figure in him too, something that Kuzco has never had before. With no parents to take care of him and just being treated with everything he ever wanted up until the events of this movie, it is no wonder he turned out the way he did before meeting Pacha and being given a big reality check. Honestly, being turned into a llama is the best thing that could have happened to him, as that allowed him to not only become a better person through his adventure, but he found a real family that could trach him family values and give him the familial love he truly needed. As for the humor of this movie, it was so ahead of its time that, while it didn’t do well when it first released, it is considered a real Disney classic now! Its humor is positively top tier! 10/10 funny times!

David Spade wasn't in the show, and neither was John Goodman for the first season. But Eartha Kitt and Patrick Warburton returned and, in all honesty, play the characters everybody REALLY loves

Eartha Kitt and Patrick Warburton are a criminally underrated comic duo. They totally make the movie for me XD

Considering how this film had a pretty troubled production back then (with crew members not being satisfied of what they were making) later they made it to the film we have now which... honestly doesn't even ring a single "production problem" when you compare it to other films like Frozen 2.

30:54 Being “removed” in a family tree usually refers to a difference in generations between two people, rather than not being related somehow. For example, your cousin’s child is your “first cousin once removed” and your cousin’s grandchild is your “first cousin twice removed” (a second cousin is a different thing). But a lot of people probably think of their cousin’s children as their nieces/nephews instead of first cousins once removed, because niece/nephew is a lot simpler even if it’s not technically correct.

This is, UNAPOLOGETICALLY, one of my top 5 favorite Disney movies of ALL TIME!! 🥰

My favorite anecdote about this movie was that the script was never written down in full until AFTER the movie hit theatres.

I think the reason why this movie is so loved is just how Looney Tunes it gets, it soooo doesn't take ANYTHING seriously and everything is just a laugh and I love it!

One of my favorite quotes: Yzma: How did we get here Kronk? Kronk: Well you got me, (pulls down map) by all means it makes no sense.

I've been kicking open doors and yelling " Boom Baby!!!!!" Since this movie dropped lol

The second Atlantis movie is actually a compilation of episodes. After Atlantis came out, they prepared an animated series. When the movie failed, the series was shelved but the finished episodes were compiled to make the 2nd movie. After 3D animation became more commonplace, audiences just didn’t want to watch 2D movies anymore. They also seemed to prefer comedy over adventure stories. With a mix of animation bias, poor marketing, bad timing, etc., Dreamworks and Disney ended up switching to 3D fully.

So the Animated Series spin-off they did was called The Emperor's New School and it actually retained a lot of the original cast. Eartha Kitt reprises her role as Yzma. Pat Warburton is still Kronk. Wendie Malick comes back as Pacha's wife Chicha. And honestly JP Manoux and Fred Tatasciore do an excellent job replicating David Spade and John Goodman. Manoux's Davide Spade imitation is near indistinguishable honestly

The Emperor's New Groove is one of those movies that gets better the older you get.

You know what I just realized? I never noticed this but you know how pacha and Kuzco were looking through the bottles to find the human potion? You ever hear the line, “lions and tigers and bears! Oh my!” And Pacha literally listed all those animals and Yzma finished it 😂 I can’t. It’s so silly.

Kronk is the ultimate Himbo character. i love him.

Kuzco and Kronk were such great characters to watch when I was younger! The TV show that takes place after this movie was so good!

This movie is freaking hilarious. Eartha Kitt's performance as Yzma will never get old, Kuzco and Pacha's friendship has grown, Kronk always make me laugh and Pacha's wife is pregnant throughout the entire movie 😢😢😢🔥🔥🔥🤣🤣🤣

Of all the movies they could turn into a live action film…Atlantis is the one I feel they could get away with the most. Side note the water fall bring it on scene has got to be the best thing to come out of this film

I think it's great in the end that Kuzco didn't get what he wanted for his birthday but got something even better; a family

This is what i called, an underated gem

10/10 Boom, baby! "The Emperor's New Groove" is a rare hilarious Disney movie. It's very different from any other Disney movie so this movie might also be very watchable to you Disney haters out there. The movie pace is incredibly high and the music by John Debney and Sting are a real surprise. The movie really is a non-stop hilarious comedy with some unique humor. Also the style, both visual and story-wise is different from any other previous Disney movie, which in this case is a positive thing. The characters are great. Kuzco and Pacha are a perfect team. Yzma is a remarkable villain and her sidekick Kronk is hilarious. Yep, Laughs are guaranteed in this very hip and hilarious movie! The story really is of no importance and most of it never makes sense but that's also why this movie is both unique and hilarious to watch over and over again. Highly recommendable to everyone! 10/10

It's one of Disneys best animated movies and it's so sad that we no longer get good movies from disney anymore. 😢

What’s amazing about this movie is….well, just about everything, but specifically, this is your run of the mill Disney animated movie, with only ONE song. Disney is notorious for making their movies musicals, for better or worse, but this has only one song in the whole film. It was gonna have so many more, apparently, and I’m glad it didn’t. It allowed for more comedy and interactions.

7:41 - 7:51 My part favorite of movie: Pull The Lever, Kronk. WRONG LEVEEEEER 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

I love how they play on the bumbling henchman archetype by making Kronk one of the snarkier characters.

Easily one of the most underrated movies to come out of the early 2000s.

I haven't even started, but I hope the cat laugh scene is in this. I nearly died laughing at that as a kid. I remember sitting and rewinding the movie over and over because my kid self was crying laughing.

So there was not only a sequel (Kronk’s New Groove)- But yes, The TV show you all mentioned “The Emperors New School” Which was only set up to run for two seasons, and completed both. It did have not only Eartha Kitt and Patrick Warburton not to mention John Goodman.

Funny story: in the 4th grade one of my classmates was like a walking tv. He'd make weird buzzing sounds and seem to go into a sudden trance while quoting scenes from movies and stuff in an announcer voice. The lines from this movie are forever stuck in my head because of him.

"Pull the lever Kronk" *click* "WRong ʟᴇᵛᵉʳ!!!!!"

Low-key the funniest Disney movie.

This movie is so underrated! I love this movie! Fun Fact: The old man that "threw off the emperor's groove" is voiced by the original voice actor for Piglet in "Winnie the Pooh!"

When John Goodman plays a bad guy, he's terrifying. He plays an amazing and seriously underrated villain in 10 Cloverfield Lane. It's easy to forget what a huge dude he is until you see him looming over a young girl chained up in his basement bunker. A better known movie where Goodman plays a badman is Oh Brother Where Art Thou.

Oh I love this movie

Just off the top of my head, John Goodman's "villain roles" include: ~ The honey lawyer in "The Bee Movie" ~ The senator in "Evan Almighty" ~ Coach Harris in "Revenge of the Nerds" ~ Potter (the exterminator) in "The Borrowers"

The thing about Kuzko being the way he is is that he's only 16. Dude still has a lot of growing up to do and he has to do all that without parents

13:12 I AM SO HAPPY YOU GOT THAT RIGHT AWAY! I didn't realize until a while into watching Owl House, and then watching someone else react to this movie. So cool!

This is my all-time classic Disney movies and I watched this when it was in theaters and I still watch it to this day. It’s funny it’s family friendly and has the best actors for each characters!!!!

I absolutely loves Disney’s direction for this movie. This is pretty much Disneys parody of their own movies.

5:54 I second the Atlantis the lost empire suggestion. Great movie. 👍

The spin off series you are referring to is The Emporer's New School, which aired on the disney channel.

Fun fact this movie was made really fast and with very limited oversight and the script was never officially approved. So they just put the movies in the theaters without making a lot changes. The writers would just add the random things (trampoline) and it all went into the final cut. Its why the movie is so unhinged but also comedic gold, because no one limited the writers.

Ever since 2000 began, Disney decided to explore making animated films not focused on musicals. Emperor’s New Groove proved to be the animated comedy that was greatly inspired from Looney Tunes Fourth wall-breaking humor!

One of the best disney movies ever made and its appalling that this isn't considered part of the Disney Renaissance

The movie is 120% memes 😆

"It seems like they only hate Ducktales" "Same, honestly" HOW DARE.

5:16 About the Spinoff, John Goodman actually returned to voice Pacha in the second season. I believe pretty much every voice of the main cast returned for the spinoff aside from David Spade.

John goodman has played villains a few times, such as 10 Cloverfield Lane. He's actually pretty good at being menacing when he wants to. And while it's not exactly a villainous role from what I remember, his part in Kevin Smith's movie Red State is pretty damn close. Also the Vice Dean of the Air Conditioning Repair School in s3 of Community

The fact that this film wasn't a hit and is underrated and surprisingly unknown by many is a TRAVESTY!!! =P

This movie may be a "cult" hit in North America, but here in Latin America this movie was *THE* 2000's Disney movie for a lot of us as kids, if you mention this movie to anyone over 25 there's a 90% chance they'll know it and even some dialogues about it.

John Goodman played Robot Santa in Futurama and Vice Dean Robert Laybourne in Community. Both were comedic characters but I would also call them evil.

Such a gem of a movie. So many quotable lines. “Break it down? It’s hand-carved mahogany.” 😂

This movie has so many memes that is actually recognize almost everywhere 😏

Interesting to note: Since the setting of this movie takes place in Peru, that makes Emperor Kuzco next door neighbors to the Madrigals of Colombia.

Fun fact! This movie didn't have a script, they just "made the movie" and when asked for the script for archiving purposes (after it had already been released) they just cobbled together what notes and storyboards they had and called it a day. So the first script for this was made AFTER it was already being screened in the cinemas. The whole making of this movie is so interesting tbh look it up

Kronk was pitching a tent. Some of that old Disney adult humor.

The universe need more kronk and launchpad characters

John Goodman is currently one of the leads in the HBO show "the righteous gemstones" great comedy show with Danny Mcbride and Adam Devine also starring in it along side him

Fun fact yzma had a song called snuff out the light but was cut after the movie was overhauled from its original vision

It's a crying shame that Yzma's Lab isn't a ride at Disney! Imagine people get in, you hear "Pull the lever, Kronk..." and the ride slides BACKWARDS. "WRONG LEVER!"

In the Brazilian Portuguese dub, instead of "scary beyond all reason", they call Yzma "uglier than a scythe fight", and I love it

OMG I literally was about to comment this movie during your next vid uploaded 😂😂

This is still one of my favorite comedy movies ever.

Out of curiosity I just looked up some stuff. Pacha just swung a 300-400 lb animal with one arm. Maybe because Kuzco was a teen before becoming a llama he might have weighed less, but still, what are they feeding Pacha? 😂

This movie has so many iconic lines 😂 I especially like kuzco and his sarcastic sassy lines

"Atlantis 2" was a 3-5 episode tv pilot turned into a direct-to-video movie. Not a theatrical release.

This is the one movie where I can quote the whole script by heart. It’s that much of a masterpiece.

this movie in spanish slaps so hard 😂 is a childhood favorite

For John Goodman villains, two that come to mind are his role as a thug Bible salesman, Big Dan in "O Brother, Where Art Thou?" and an absolutely psychotic insurance salesman in "Barton Fink". While Walter from "The Big Lebowski" wasn't technically a villain, he was absolutely unhinged, so you could make an argument there. The Coen Brothers like using Goodman as a villain.

I don't know if it's inspired by or if it's coincidental, but Yzma and Kronk going down the secret mine cart and ending up in their labcoats, reminds me of the 60s Batman show. For those under 60, Bruce Wayne and Dick Grayson go down a secret passage, and appear in their costumes. AND Eartha Kitt (Yzma) was one of the beautiful ladies to play Catwoman.

This is in my top 5 fave Disney movies of all time. Absolutely hilarious 😂❤❤ so rewatchable

I actually remember liking the spinoff show a lot as a kid. It had a few odd retcons just so the premise would work but it was funny. Kuzco and Kronk are teenagers and Kuzco has to graduate high school before he can reclaim his Emperor status and I think he lives with Pacha's family in the meantime. It sort of changes the dynamic between Kuzco and Pacha from unlikely friends to foster family which works really well if I'm being honest. Also Kuzco falls for a pretty nerd girl and Yzma does everything in her power to keep him from graduating. I think my favorite thing about that show was that it had a little bit of continuity before that was really a common thing in animated shows. There wasn't a huge amount of it but there were moments where you could tell that Kuzco had experienced character growth. Honestly it's surprising how many spinoff shows are actually good. I mean you expect them to be cheap cash grabs and some of them are but a lot of them are genuinely well written. Aladdin had a pretty good spinoff too if I'm remembering correctly. And How to Train Your Dragon had like 8 seasons of adventures that really fleshed out it's characters and world. Then there's the Tangled series which definitely takes the cake.

The cactus that Yzma pours the drink on turns into a llama! I loved this movie growing up and never noticed it for years until one of my friends pointed it out several years ago.

IDK what it is about this movie, but it gets funnier every time I come back to it.

Oh yeah It's all coming together

You can insult Kronk for his intelligence till the cows come home. But insulting the spinach puffs, she just made it personal.

actually, Goodman did play a villian role in Evan Almighty. And as a matter of fact, I JUST NOW NOTICED THAT THERE IS A REFERENCE ON NEW GROOOVE IN THAT MOVIE!!! 😆😆😆

Ohh El-dorado should be on the list of watches for you guys, honestly, watching this reaction reaction reminded me of that movie.

That Willie Nelson line was so clever and really funny 😂😂

Patrick Warburton does show up in a decent number of tv shows everything from family guy to kids cartoons. my favorite roll of his has to be Brock Sampson from Venture bros. though, it being the deconstruction of hanababara age cartoons like johnny quest, scooby-doo, and the like lines him up for the roll he delivers best on, definitely recommend the show if you haven't seen it.

When I got my first paycheck I got this movie one of the best purchases of my life!

I adore Earth Kitt generally, and in this movie particularly.

Actually it was really just David Spade that didn’t return for the spin off show. John Goodman was in the second season but not the first, and both Eartha Kitt and Patrick Warburton reprised their roles for the entire series. In fact the reason the show was cancelled was because Eartha Kitt died not because of ratings or bad reviews

This is my favorite childhood movie

Pill bugs are crustaceans, so they basically got lobsters.
