HOW HAVE I NEVER SEEN THIS?! | The Emperor's New Groove MOVIE REACTION

"This is a goofier movie than A Goofy Movie."
That was the only thing I could think about at the end of watching "The Emperor's New Groove" as a reward to the Discord for the channel hitting 4,000 subscribers. They've had me doing Kronk impersonations for weeks now and I finally understand why.
Kronk is magnificent.

This movie has been in my “Quote every line in the script” box for a while.

[@BarteNERDS]

I can see why.

[@hotshot104]

Pull the lever Kronk! And the waterfall scene lines are my go to

[@PsychoDiesel48]

It is unapoligetically one of the funniest movies ever made. Which was strugglingly ripped from the corpse of a more historically significant musical. But, that movie had to keel over to birth this gem of a lovie that is a cult hit with, if I were to make a guess, most of the known universe XD

[@silverscreen842]

Apparently, there wasn't even ever a script

[@cubicalgamer2402]

Kronk is probably the most quotable animated character of all time.

[@kermitgotthesickkicks4265]

You are now officially cultured in the way of Krunk

[@BarteNERDS]

Oh, yeah. It's all coming together.

[@Shythalia]

*Kronk

[@Unqualifiedmedicalperson]

The actor who voiced the old guy who gets thrown out the window wasn’t the voice of Winnie the Pooh, the was actually the voice of Piglet. He voiced the character for almost 50 years until his death.

[@killinglonliness88]

Yeah if you watch the video he actually put on the screen that he meant Piglet, so he already knew this....

[@NoriMori1992]

He knows. He said so on the screen.

[@jimlight5137]

It’s such a pleasure to see someone vibe so well with the humor of this cartoon.

[@TheDragiix3]

The reason this movie is so goofy is ironically because it was originally meant to be a really epic, dark story where Yzma revives a dead god to swallow the sun so that she can obtain eternal youth.. The movie went through such a shit fest oft blocks and Disney didn't want to make the movie anymore at all, so they literally recorded a ton of random bs voicelines without transcript and then they animated that and that's how we get the movie we now love lol.

[@BarteNERDS]

I ended up watching the making of this like a month ago and was like, "Yeah, that all makes sense now."

[@RocRolDis]

Seriously? It pulls off Hope and Crosby buddy comedy so well

[@a.g.demada5263]

The lever scene is the most famous of the movie. In France (I'm french), when she falls, Yzma shouts " Not this oooone !!!! " I don't know if you noticed it but the cactus next to Yzma turns into a lama too and when she's chase by bees, the swarm takes the form of a shark. Fun fact : in the french version, Kronk is voiced by the same guy than Simba.

[@melenatorr]

Oh, not a word of praise for the great Eartha Kitt, who played Yzma???! Bear in mind that 90% of what we see of Kronk is supported and/or led by the magnificence of Ms. Kitt, who threw herself into this role and really seemed to have enjoyed the whole experience. Also, for people of my generation, the cat transformation was a terrific in-joke: in the 1960s "Batman" tv show, Kitt was the second actress to play Catwoman. Not only was this a rare, major supporting role for a woman of color, but the casting was, literally, purrrfect: kzbin.info/www/bejne/npPVgYCMarR2pJo.

[@gilessaint-loup2426]

Also, the fact when she said "Is that my voice? is *that my* voice?! Oh well." was unscripted but they had the mics hot. They decided to keep it.

[@melenatorr]

@@gilessaint-loup2426 I didn't know that, but it fits so well.

[@queenaunt4531]

For a movie with no script, there sure is a Lot of iconic lines and scenes

[@emilycristal9169]

I LOVE this movie! Here in Latam was one of the favourites! The Latin-Spanish version is sooooo good, and many people from here likes to quote the dialoges or use them as memes Glad that you finally watch it!

[@pollyyander]

my friend always told me the spanish version was funnier, but he might be biased lol

[@emilycristal9169]

@@pollyyander I mean, I love the Latin-Spanish because I grow up with it! I also think is funnier because some words, dialoges and jokes are differents, using things that are part of our culture. This apply to all the Disney movies hahshshs Sorry, I can't explain myself, I'm so bad at writing english, I prefer to speak it HAHHSHSHS

[@yamillagarcia2228]

I have watched the movie in English and Spanish (latin america version) and to me and my kids too, it is funnier in Spanish.

[@erikperhs_]

I'm brazilian and I assure you the brazilian portuguese version is also amazing!!

[@shay-la-vie]

The pure delighted laughter through so many of the moments of this is so fun to see, I love this movie and I loved your reaction!

[@shanearnett3235]

Your squirrel impression had me in stitches. Lol

[@insomnimaniac9086]

Another great reaction and even greater art. Keep it up Jo, your nailing it.

[@BarteNERDS]

Love you, som!

[@leandromonteiroesilva7693]

The fourth wall break part where he talks to himself narrating I always imagined that he began to change in his morals but there was still that small voice in his head who tried to keep the toxic thought process.

[@darr12100]

There was also a series that aired on the Disney channel called The Emperor’s New School. In it, Kuzco has to enroll in Kuzco Academy and pass a series of classes and courses in order to stay emperor. Yzma and Kronk disguise themselves as faculty members and do whatever they can to make Kuzco fail. Also, Kuzco isn’t allowed to live in his palace while attending school and ends up temporarily staying with Pacha.

[@brianstewart3897]

This movie was originally going to be a musical titled "Kingdom of the Sun." As you can tell, they radically reworked it from that concept.

[@Spicy_Apple]

Aw lmao the discord segments are really cute to see, glad you enjoyed the movie so much! Eventually we will have you see all the classics 😏

[@kazazalea7747]

This was such a fun movie night! I'm glad i got to be here :D

[@takeaguessbuddy8934]

This is by far one of my favorite movies ever, so seeing the Pacha hand studies on your Twitter and then your reaction made me beyond happy. I love your art!!

[@earlonaweary9155]

I legit said Yzma would order a Cherry Vodka Sour w/an umbrella & a pineapple chunk or something fancy on there. Krunk, probably a Heineken or an IPA. Great reaction! 👍🏼

[@onararee1777]

that was such a fun movie night glad we could watch that with you jo

[@BarteNERDS]

I'm glad you all could, too. Especially since I have to work this Saturday and can't make it.

[@Rocky.B.Mariposa]

If you loved this movie you should react to the sequel, “Kronk’s New Groove.” It’s all about Kronk so I know you’ll love it 😂

[@mayarbuzik7075]

in episode ,,lair games" of rottmnt there is an exact redraw of the pacha meme you drew at 36:20

[@elitettelbach4247]

One of my favorite things about this movie is how much they break the fourth wall and make meta jokes. Goofy is an excellent word to describe this. Awesome reaction! ! I like that you included the discord chat (how fun!), but I will say that that audio was much louder for me than the movie audio, so I kept having to adjust my volume. Congrats on 4 (almost 5) k subs! The impressions were great and the art was really cool too! And it made me smile when I saw you drew the Pacha meme haha.

[@thetheatre_kat]

Oh my word it is so weird to hear myself in this video😂 it was a pleasure to watch this with you Jo!

[@gilessaint-loup2426]

Little blink and you miss it moment given how good the animation is, when Yzma is knocking the broccoli together the cactus on the right hand side which she or Kronk poured their drink in (can't remember which) turned into a llama shape.

[@heathergarnham9555]

Theme Song Guy is Tom Jones, apparently they originally asked Sting to write and perform tge opening number, Sting thought he was too old and refused, so they asked Tom, who is older

[@Samgreen90]

(At 5:10) uh yeah, _The Rugrats Movie._ Him and Whoopi Goldberg were the park ranchers helping the parents find their missing babies that got lost in the woods. He was the park ranger freaking out too much.

[@Mishaco810]

Great reaction! By the way, the culture this movie is based on is not Mexican but Peruvian.

[@Serryy]

John Goodman's character wife character is voiced by the one that did the voice for Beatrice Horseman!

[@iwantanomlett]

yooo glad u reacted to the classic!! i was having so much fun watching your reaction, its like i was watching the movie for the first tine :] so happy to see new uploads! now i just need to catch up on your mp100 playlist hehe

Sheeeeeit, *I* still need to catch up on my MP100 playlist.

"why would she even have this?" according to an episode of emperor new school she says "eh it's just for fun"

Im glad u enjoyed the movie, especially the sweet moments :D and yess i want pacha to cup my face with his hand they're so chonky and dad-like, you can guess his personality just from that hahah

[@MojiBeau]

I look at this as Disneys version of a Looney Tunes cartoon. And they nailed it 😂 I quote this movie constantly

[@Zorua28]

Kuzkos advisor, Yzma, was voiced by Eartha Kitt. She was Catwoman for a while in the original Batman series.

[@medusathedecepticon]

"Spam the emojis! SPAM MY ARMY SPAM!" I love this line, I also love the discord chats, very cool and fun!

[@randomdode]

I love emperor's New Groove so i immediately clicked the video (also love your reactions they're great)

[@besupaaa]

This movie is so fun. And I love the dub in my country (Brazil), so I'm a little biased towards it, but I love seeing people have fun with this.

[@Jaserocks2]

Kronk is the best character in the entire movie

[@Adameia_]

If you ever watch any behind the scenes for this... Eartha Kitt has the time of her life playing Yzma.

[@RocRolDis]

This movie is incredibly underrated. The humor is amazing, inspired by old Buster Newton stunts and old travel comedies. EDIT: Buster KEATON

[@jrnsurlan405]

Don’t you mean Keaton?

[@RocRolDis]

@@jrnsurlan405 Yeah. WTF, autocorrect...

[@CinHotlanta]

Had the same reaction the first time I saw it, I've been sharing it to the amazed smiles of others in the years since 😃 It answers the question what would happen if the Looney Tunes writers got to run inside, lock the door and run Disney for one movie.

[@ganapatikamesh]

This movie has my favorite joke in it: when Yzma asks Kronk how they got to the palace first and Kronk pulls down the map and says “By all accounts it doesn’t make any sense.” Every time I watch this movie that joke makes me laugh so hard….which isn’t difficult because I am laughing through most of it. It is indeed a different type of Disney film, but I think that’s why it’s so loved by so many! Kronk is definitely my favorite character from the film. I adore Community and enjoyed John Goodman’s character in it. I can’t think of a show or film with John Goodman in it that I’ve seen that I didn’t like. He’s just a good actor at whatever role he’s given. I don’t remember where I heard or read it, but I believe Eartha Kitt, who voices Yzma in this film, favorite drink of choice was some kind if red wine. Keep in mind that might be false as I might be remembering something Pierce Hawthorne says about her since that character in Community does bring her up at various times (including repeatedly in the episode with the different timelines). Have you seen the videos by Peter Hollens and another KZbin singer of Goofy Movie songs and in real life? They worked together to produce videos for each other’s channels a few years ago. Peter Hollens’ video is a compilation of songs while the other guy’s video is a live recreation of the concert scenes. They’re both awesome videos. Yet another great Disney film! I have a friend who got the nickname “aunt possum” by one of her nieces after watching the movie because her parents (the niece’s grandparents) called my friend by the nickname Lester (her name is Leslie) and of course the opossum park’s main theme character is named Lester hence “aunt possum”. She fully embraced the nickname by her niece, though it certainly was a lot to explain to people unfamiliar with Goofy Movie. Great reaction! I’m new to your channel, but it looks like a fun channel to subscribe to so I did. Thanks for making and sharing this video! It made my day!

[@kirara2516]

Oh, you were close! It wasn't Winnie the pooh, but Piglet that the old guy was voiced by.

[@Shadowy-ww7mb]

In the original version of this movie named kingdom of the sun yzma was a villainous sorceress out to block earths view of the sun in order to restore her youth and gain immortality this was explained in her cut villain song snuff out the light

[@Samgreen90]

The fact they got Tom Jones (theme song guy) on this surprises me.

[@nathanielrohwer4186]

That was a great reaction. Your comic is awesome by the way. I haven't read Bartenerds in years. Now I have to go find it and see what I have missed.

[@sofiaspeakman8086]

Emperor’s New Groove is such a great movie! Glad to see how much you enjoyed it. You mentioned how you love angular art styles; have you seen any of the 2019 Carmen Sandiego show?

[@BarteNERDS]

I lovvvved it. I still have the final season to watch, too! I have a Netflix's Lupin breakdown video where I even talk about how much I liked it at the beginning. Carmen Sandiego is another one of those franchises that has just been with me repeatedly through the ages.

[@corvcorv]

Watching this over discord was so fun, movie night supremacy

[@theConquerersMama]

Can I go home? I 've been turned into a cow.

[@joevanno4323]

One of the best references was that eartha kitt who played yzma, also played cat woman in the original batman show. So when yzma turned into an animal she was turned into a cat.

[@legendarygriffin]

Im sad i missed this movie night ToT New Groove is just one of those films that I can watch whenever and it never gets tiring. Curse adulting!! Glad you loved the film!

[@officialflikz]

10:10 notice how the plant turned into a lama, she poured the potion there before

[@CrazyLori360]

If you like the way they animated those hands, you see Disney's "Lost City of Atlantis."

[@benoitcecyre7081]

This movie is the most "old Warner Bros cartoon" Disney film . The humor is meant to be absurdist as those old cartoons.

[@adarkwind4712]

Weird Disney movie maybe. Instant classic absolutely.

[@lynchie2073]

if you like the angular art in this, youll absolutely love atlantis. it goes even further with the square, blocky art direction and is also an unusual movie for disney (but one of my favourites)

[@BarteNERDS]

That's why I was so confused why I've never seen this, because I saw Atlantis in theaters and it's still a top three Disney contender. And I've definitely seen pics of this and it was obvious that it was the Atlantis crew, but for some reason I just never watched it. Legit though, if Lilo and Stitch wasn't as good as it was, Atlantis *would* be my number one Disney pick.

[@miguelaugusto7429]

curiosity: in brazil, we love this movie, in fact, we like some of the forgotten Disney movies, such as Irmão Urso, mainly because of the dubbing, highlighting those of Kuzko (Selton Mello) and Kronk (Guilherme Briggs, who is also the Brazilian voice actor of Buzz Lightear, Superman, Optimus Prime, etc)

[@coyotelong4349]

I’d argue this is probably the most unique movie Disney’s ever made They’d never made a movie like this before, and they’ve never made one like it since TENG is one of a kind and a comedy classic… Every time I watch it I always feel like it’s over way too quick

[@all-stargamer3333]

The Entire Movie doesn't make any Sense but the Humor is priceless.😂

[@alivia5257]

The fact that I can come back to this video and see my oc in the banner and my little fun fact in the beginning is so fun and makes me so happy!! ^v^ -Ruler of Frogs

[@CheeseKatze]

Fun fact: The script of the movie wasn't submitted to Disney until 2 weeks after the movie entered Theaters. A guy from archives had to come down and ask for a final script and they didn't have one. They quickly slapped one together and submitted it right then and there. It was the movie's first and only draft. ( That is if you don't count the original concept for the movie, which was a lot different)

[@jacquelynnguyen3268]

Congrats on 4K!! You deserve it 💯 wish I was able to watch movies with everybody else on the server but I'm always busy Saturdays DD: glad I'm still able to watch your reaction on them tho

[@novaboon2866]

17:32 You are completely right. While most of the time a Llama will not bite someone, even in self defense. They do have some crazy fang like teeth on the roof of their mouth and have a similar bite force to that of a human. If bit by one it would leave some nasty damage. In fact some males have been known to use their razor sharp teeth to castrate other male llamas that stray too close to the their herd.

[@A07Nick]

Would have been a perfect alternate Splash Mountain ride at Disneyland instead of Princess & the Frog. "The Emperor's Splash Mountain" I think lol.

Krunk is hands down the best thing about this movie. And Yzma is among my favorite villains. Also, think about why the angel said the devil doing a handstone was a good point. Hint: The devil has pants...and the angel is in a robe. =P

[@MetaLatias5]

honestly, if you want to see some more angular styles and good hand designs like this from Disney I recommend Disney's Atlantis I remember seeing someone making an analysis/appreciating video on the way the hands are drawn in that movie alone, pff
