The humor in this movie still holds up to this day.

Kuzco is the best Disney Princess period. Also he has one of THE best character arcs in the Disney canon.

When you gasped with all of the Kronks when she said “I’ve never liked your spinach puffs” 😂😂😂

Kronk isn't stupid, he's just that ignorant innocent type. He's like a big kid

"Oh riiight! The poison. The poison for Kuzco. The poison chosen especially to kill Kuzco. Kuzco's poison."

Yzma: Pull the lever Kronk! WRONG LEVEEERRRR!!!!!! Why do we even have that lever!? 🥺🐊

"Hey, I'​ve been turned into a cow. Can I go home?" - "You are excused." - Yzma is the best

As an adult, I just realized that Cusco is a city in Peru referring to the main character Kuzco.

11:18 Just a minor detail here Nick, the Cactus next to Yeezmah, also became a llama, after she poured her "poison" into it. 😉

Yzma is voiced by Eartha Kitt who played Catwoman in the 60s (that’s why she tuns into a cat) she was also the first to sing Santa Baby she sadly passed away a couple years ago

I'm Peruvian and I always loved all the references to our Inca culture

Till this day I aways want to try Kronk's spinach puffs.

The humor in this movie is next level, as is the voice cast.

If you look up the word "himbo" in the dictionary, you'll find Kronk's picture. I love him.

I CANNOT believe this movie is 21 years old

The way you gasped at the same time as the characters when Yzma said she didn't like the spinach puffs lmao

(Kicks door open) "Ha, BOOM Baby!" -Emperor Kuszco ✌😅

Fun fact: the old man who is thrown out the window is voiced by the same actor who did the voice of Piglet in the old Winnie the Pooh shorts. I think it was also his last film role.

One thing I love about Nick EVERY TIME is that he always points out and marvels at scenery and shots I've just so easily paid no mind to - especially in animation. 💖 Like, I've been in/studying the animation industry most of my life and have watched these movies dozens of times but I always see it with new eyes with Nick's videos. 😄

"Wrong leveeer!" That's probably one of the most used quotes ever. You can tell Yzma's voice actress had a blast with the role 😆

“WRONG LEVERRRRRR!!..” - best joke of the decade 👌

Yzma- "I never liked your spinach puffs." Kronk and Nick- *Gasp!*

This movie was supposed to be totally different. It would be dark, serious and epic and it was called *Kingdom Of The Sun.* In the story, Yzma would be a witch who's mad at the sun for making her old and ugly, so she would try to *summon the god of darkness* to get rid of the sunlight. In order to do that, she needed to kill the Emperor and offer him as a sacrifice because he was born with the mark of the sun, but she fails and he turns into a llama. Still, in the end *she succeeds and kills the Emperor,* but another god brings him back to life. I love this movie, but I can't help but think how cool it would be to have Yzma as a main Disney villain. Also, she was going to have a song that people didn't want to use even in the original story because they considered it "too dark" for kids. It's called Snuff Out The Light and it's amazing!

8:45 This Is The Most Nick Has Ever Laughed Reacting To A Movie

The Emperor's New Groove is simply unforgettable in terms of its own characters and slapstick humor. For the most part, I think the movie deeply emphasizes the sheer importance of family and the negative impact of greed and the sense of inferiority. Still, I enjoyed the fact that this movie, I have to say, is unique and what stands out more is that the main female villain is just as funny and a bit dumb from time to time as our two male MCs. I wish more animated movies have this kind of humorous appeal among the younger crowd/audience until this very day. That's all 😊

Kronk is voiced by Patrick Warburton who was also Lemony Snicket and Joe Swanson in Family Guy

R.I.P Eartha "Yzma" Kitt.

Hands down. The funniest Disney movie of all time.

i feel like kuzco's parents trusted him to rule the empire when they die, so now he's 18 and acts like he can do whatever he can with no responsabilities.

"Is that the donkey?" LOL

Hey everyone, hope you enjoyed the reaction! I was finally able to get this video passed copyright an hour ago after trying the whole night, so I am going to bed now but will be responding to comments when I wake up in a couple hours! Hope you enjoyed the reaction even with the 1-2 minutes of muted sound😂.

I only just now noticed that after Yzma threw her drink into the cactus it turned into a cactus llama.

There’s actually a series called the Emperor’s New School and each episode, much like the Simpson’s Couch Gag, features a new “wrong lever” scenario.

Four things: 1. Disney, I hope you revive the "Kingdom of the Sun" idea, or make a live-action remake where Yzma rules the empire and Kuzco has to get it back. 2. I love the idea that Yzma is secretly Kuzco's biological mother. 3. I need more Disney films with a male protagonist and female antagonist. That's a rare combo. 4. The humor and voice acting is top-notch here (though honestly, I've never seen an animated film with bad voice acting, but still). Plus it's ironic when you realize Yzma thinks Kuzco knows she tried to poison him, while Kuzco thinks she adores him. Neither of them really know the other, despite their similarities.

Remember seeing this in theatres as a kid. The adults were laughing just as much as the kids!

Yzma: It's brilliant brilliant brilliant i tell you,Genius i say. Kronk is my favorite character. And also when me and my sister were kids, whenever we had noddles for dinner i would recreate the restaurant scene from Kuzco and Patcha entering the restaurant to When Kronk becomes the new chef. Also Patcha is voiced by John Goodman he also voiced Sulley from Monsters inc and Kuzco is voiced by David Spade

this has always been one of my fave Disney movies and I quote it to this dayyy. "no touchy" "squeak squeaken squeak squeakity" "llama faaaaaace" "the poison... the poison for kuzco" 😂😂😂

My friend: Oh boy... Me: Don't tell me, NickFlix updated a new movie reaction. My friend: Yup Me: Gonna upload that Mrs. Doubtfire movie? My friend: Most likely. Me: ......bring it on.

Yzma and Kronk are one of the best parts of the film 😁

This movie is based on my country and culture, and it still holds a place in my heart.

Most underrated Disney movie ever! Yzma is the best Disney Villan!! 💜

Nick's reactions are so wholesome!!! He really is the Bob Ross or Steve Irwin of movie reactions.

34:09 Apparently in the Spanish dub she said "I was dreaming about Ricky!"

I love detail when Yzma pours her drink in the plant. When they pan to her later in the scene the plant has transformed into the shape of a llama 😂😂 such a great detail!

“I’ll turn him into a flea. Then I’ll put that flea into a box. Then I’ll put that box into another box. Then I’ll mail the box to myself, and when it arrives..... I’ll smash it with a hammer!” 😆😆😆😆😆😆😆 One of the funniest things she says all movie. Like why not just squish him right then and there if you’re going to turn him into a bug? 😆 She’s so extra, and I love it!

This has got to be one of the funniest disney movies ever 😂 Also you should try watching Atlantis: the lost empire or maybe princess and the frog if you haven't seen them.

Yzma just has to be my favourite Disney Villian

I love this movie. I saw it in theatres when it came out. So funny, great voice cast. It's so underrated. The sequel "Kronks New Groove" is actually good. Especially considering strait to DVD Disney sequels are usually so bad you want to forget them.

3:55 Welcome to the world of absolute monarchy - everything that you call yours is the monarchs and if the monarch wants your head on a spike or to see you flying out the window, that's how it's going to be.

The reason I loved Kronk so much is that he was the villain's sidekick, but he was actually a genuinely nice person the whole time. I've heard of Affably Evil (a villain who is also a nice person despite being evil), but he's not evil either.

My dad and I to this day, say "can you top me off pal, be a friend?" 🤣

21 years later, still one of the best disney movies in recent time ...and yzma still sounds exactly like frieza

This is low-key my favorite Disney movie, ever.

I can’t believe I didn’t think of this before!!! 😱 You need to see Disney’s The Rescuers Down Under!!! It’s a criminally underrated movie!!!

27:00 Kuzco: Well, not today, pal. Uh-huh. Uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh. Uh-huh

This was probably one of the first movies that messed around with the 4th wall directly

Fun fact!! There was no real script for this movie until after it was already released in theaters! David Reynolds, the screenwriter for the film, has said in interviews, “This is the honest-to-God truth: The first and only draft of The Emperor’s New Groove was handed in two weeks after the movie was in theaters.”

Nick, you should watch Holes! It’s another really underrated Disney movie! ❤️ It’s like Shawshank redemption for kids lol

One thing worth mentioning is how funny the scene with Pacha's family is, when Yzma and Kronk are in the house. The jumping rope bits were hilarious! And Pacha wasn't kidding when he said his family can take care of themselves 😂

I remember seeing this in cinemas - the kids around us were crying to their moms that they didn't like it. Us teenagers were crying laughing.

Also few iconic memes come from this moving like: ,,Pull the lever Kronk!" ,,Oh yeah! It's all coming together!"

34:57 Pacha: So, you tired of being a llama? Kuzco: [Crying] Ye-ee-ee-es! It's never gets old

so glad you saw this. this movie is a gem

I'm so glad you enjoyed this one! It's one of my childhood favourites. Fun fact, my husband makes spinach puffs like Kronk. He accidentally burned one batch, so he completely sympathizes with Kronk when he runs to get them out of the oven!

This movie gave me so many phrases to say as a kid

All I here is Joe Swanson from Family Guy trying to kill David Spade, and I love it. Patrick Warburton has a perfect voice.

Such a fun movie! That point when Kuzco is eating grass, and there's dirt on his tongue ... _that's_ what we call "hitting rock bottom."

Kronk is the most wholesome henchman ever!

I could literally perform a one man show of this, I know the whole movie. And it came out when I was a teenager🤣♥️

8:43 This part aways gets me everytime XD

This movie has so many quotable lines. One of my faves!

I actually saw this movie in the theater back in the day. Still makes me actually LOL!

The "old man" is John Fiedler in one of his final performances (for Disney fans, he's best known as the voice of Piglet from most of the classic Pooh cartoons, all the way to PIGLET'S BIG MOVIE)

This is one of those movies where, when we can't decide what to watch, we put it on. Cuz we can watch it anytime

i loved seeing your reaction to "pull the lever Kronk" because i grew up with this movie, and although it's an iconic scene, you kinda forget over time just how fucking funny it is. so it's nice to see someone react with fresh eyes!

I’m so happy you reacted to this movie and that you actually laughed with it 😭 this is my favorite movie, not just my favorite animated one but my favorite from all movies, I love the art style and the jokes the characters.. Idk it just makes me happy and I’m glad you enjoyed it this much! ✨✨

YESSSS I'VE BEEN WANTING AN EMPEROR'S NEW GROOVE REACTIONNN!! love your channel Nick!!!

The waterfall scene is probably the oldest memory I have of laughing so hard I couldn't breath. Would of been like 8 years old

I was actually thinking about requesting this film before, but now I won’t have to. Also to me this is one of the funniest films ever made right up there with the works of the classic Looney Tunes and Tom and Jerry, good Bill Murray films , and the Marx Brothers. A few facts about the film -the woman who plays Yzma is legendary actress Eartha Kitt most famous for singing Santa Baby, was one of two woman who played Cat Woman in the Adam West Batman series, and the woman who hit on Eddie Murphy in Boomerang. -The theme song guy is played by singer Tom Jones most famous for singing “It’s not unusual to be loved by anyone” and until I saw him in the film Mars Attacks I always thought he was a black guy, and the songs for the film were written by Sting, -when Yzma throws the potion on the cactus it turns into a llama shaped cactus, -this was the first animated Disney film to showcase a pregnant mom, My favorite bit of trivia is when the guard says “Hey I’ve been turned into a cow. Can I go home?” Is a play on the saying “till the cows come” I have seen this film so many times the comedy never wears out and I can quote it nearly word for word it is that great! -The original idea for this film and the process it went through was insane. If you can find it look up the documentary The Sweatbox. -The old man thrown out the window is voiced by John Fiedler most famous as the voice Piglet until his death in 2005. -nobody dies in the film except that one fly. -John Goodman the voice of Pacha is Sully from Monsters Inc.

Have you seen The Road to El Dorado? This and Emperors New Grove are my go to mood booster movies

8:45 that laugh 😍 Also 11:18 look at the cactus beside Yzma turning into a lama shape 😂

19:53 Fun fact, after this movie, the memes about 'Bad situation shows up and people say "Bring it on!!!" ' started popping up.

"What is holding this woman together?" "This year's new model is called kronk" "You should've thought about that before becoming peasants" "Well he vaint getting any deader" "WRONG LEVEERRRRRRR!" When I tell you this and Megamind are my favvvvv comedy animations.

Kronk was played by Patrick Warburton, also voice of Mr Barkin in Kim Possible.

I frickin love David Spade. I love this movie. It's hilarious! John Goodman is Pacha, Patrick Warburton is Kronk, Eartha Kitt was Yzma. PS: Kuzco's name is based on Cusco which was part of the Incan empire in the Andes Mountains of Peru, hence why everything is on a hill, cliff, mountain, or rain forest.

This movie will forever be one of my favorites.

I love this classic comedy so much! It’s that movie where you can visit so much to get you to laugh and smile. I like how the theme and the plot doesn’t revolve around lovers and more of friendship and family. The character arc of Kuzco was amazing like from this selfish spoiled brat to a caring person that is able to sympathize with others thanks to Pacha. I must say, favorite character award personally goes to Kronk. He is such a lovable, sweet, funny character and I want his spinach puffs. Thank you so much for this reaction Nick~ 🥰❤️

One of the funniest Disney Movies !

You got to watch the animated series, "The Emperor's New School". It continues to develop Kuzco's character and flesh out the others.

This movie is so wholesome and funny, I can't even get really mad at Izma because there's so much humor 😂

34:07 Fun fact: in the Latin american spanish dub, she says "I was dreaming of Ricky" in reference to Ricky Martin, a Puerto Rican singer

This movie WAS originally going to be a musical. The original songs and even most of the plot were scraped, which is a GOD DAMN SHAME because they absolutely should have fully utilized the talents of Eartha Kitt. Look up “Snuff Out the Light.” It’s Yzma’s villain song that they were fools to abandon.

38:36 I love your reaction there. Just too perfect.

I’ve never seen someone so invested in wanting a character to be good. But it’s Disney, man! Good reaction, and yes, the rewatchability is through the roof.

For a movie that's 21 years old, its aged well.

Man, I've never seen you wheezing in laughter before.

These kind of humor can't be find in other movies these days. :(

Kuzco was the Ultimate Karen!

Fun fact: The old man who gets thrown out the window is voiced by the late John Fiedler who was the original voice of Piglet.

The guy who plays pacha is the same voice actor who plays Sully in Monsters INC. His name is John Goodman
