Alright, back in the nostalgic movie train for the week... I watched The Emperor's New Groove! This has always held a special place in my heart because I think it's definitely one of the funniest Disney movies if not the funniest... at least from when I was growing up, it is one of the funnier ones.
And I'm happy it held up! It wasn't the best movie ever... but its still really funny and you can see even though Kuzco seems like a big jerk that is almost unforgivable... he does have good qualities. I think the only reason he was mean to Pacha was because he really thought Pacha turned him into a llama and he didn't think Yzma or Kronk had anything to do with it.
The voice acting in this movie is also pretty unique for a Disney movie... especially back then. Its all well known actors who are known for being in comedies. Eartha Kitt voiced Yzma and she did a wonderful job! I never knew that she played Yzma! I thought that was pretty cool!
This is also one that I loved when it first came out and I saw it at the movies and got the VHS tape and watched it over and over again because my sister and I both really liked it. We had a few movies that were like our go-to movies that we'd watch over and over again and it was This, Shrek, Dr. Doolittle 2 and Monsters Inc. And we had those displayed in front of our other movies because those were our favorites.
I miss the drawn animation as opposed to the CGI stuff. I think if I were to list all of my favorite Disney movies (which I probably did or will do in the near future because thats a good one) it would probably be a lot of Pixar movies... I think overall if I had to choose Disney or Pixar... I'd choose Pixar. Monster's Inc is one of my all time favorite movies and a lot of Pixar movies are ones I find myself watching over and over again... but that doesn't mean I don't love the hand-drawn animation because I really think those are amazing too.
The Emperors New Groove probably isn't in the Top 10 list I have for Disney movies... but it probably is in the top 25 or top 30... just cause its really funny and I thought the action of it held up well too. The scene where I was kind of like "Yeah this movie is great" was when Kronk was cooking dinner and Yzma and Kuzko kept going in and out changing the order. They're so similar but so different that its just funny. No wonder they're enemies! Lol.
Byeee!
