Rotten tomatoes said it was unoriginal. Dunno - to this day, this is still my favorite animated film. I thought it was very original with a FANTASTIC soundtrack. same goes for emperor's new groove. Back when animation companies hired some REALLY great artists for their soundtracks. aw, man. making me want to watch this again for the 273739379th time.
Hollywood wants to see an 'original' movie but doesn't account for old reused plot structures that are just well executed. See aforementioned examples, How to Train Your Dragon, Pirates of the Caribbean, and any number of adventure films.
yeah, me and my 2 older brothers can quote the movie. my parents are tired of watching it. one Christmas, we were playing Settlers of Catan, and my brother's girlfriend had to roll a 7, and when she did, my brothers did the dance and quote
Rotten Tomatoes just gathers reviews and gives a general consensus. They didn't say it was unoriginal themselves but Critics at the time did. But El Dorado came out at a strange time where 3D was just getting HUGE and people were more interested in that style of animation sadly,
I never understood why critics always said this movies bland, this is like the greatest kid movie ever. The songs kick ass, the characters are lovable, and the story's just one big fun adventure.
I love how this is the only song that's sung in-universe by the characters and it's literally them realizing how completely absurd their predicament is and they're just like; Alright, let's roll with this. 😂😂😂
Dale Quinton totally dnd characters. A bard and rouge that have taught each other their best skills. Now both can sing and lie, steal and charm.... perfect
The voice acting in this was spotless to me, especially since I had the audio tape and I listened to it all the time as a kid. I can't get Tulio's face out of my head when I hear his VA, same with Miguel.
Seriously!!! I was looking for it the other day and only found the Elton John radio versions. Which are fine... but relatively bland compared to the movie versions!
@@marinasaurus seriously though, they’re far less upbeat, and they remove any of the awesome singing between the actors. Its a major ego-stroke. It says ‘motion picture soundtrack’ but theres NOTHING from the movie. Just Elton John dubbing everything and making everything slow. when i click on a movie soundtradk i expect tracks from the movie, not just Elton John singing endless songs, half of which arent even from the movie, just call it something else then
bruh mad nostalgia right now. this film is legit the best animated film. it's rare a song in every "album" or soundtrack or whatever is as good as these
Whoa it's a good movie but best animated film..HELL NO. the prince of egypt destroyed i repeat DESTROYED this movie by a country mile. That movie was a masterpiece. Story, music plot. The road to El Dorado plot lacked structure and made up for it by the animation and music
Lyrics from Genius I hardly think I'm qualified To come across all sanctified I just don't cut it with the cherubim (Tulio, what are you talking about?) There again they're on their knees Being worshipped is a breeze Which rather suits us in the interim (The interim, the interim, that's me and him Oh my god!) It's tough to be a god Tread where mortals have not trod Be deified when really you're a sham Be an object of devotion Be the subject of psalms It's a rather touching notion All those prayers and those salaams And who am I to bridle if I'm forced to be an idol? If they say that I'm a god that's what I am! What's more, if we don't comply with the locals' wishes I can see us being sacrificed or stuffed (You have a point, that's very good thinking) So let's be gods, the perks are great! (Yeah!) El Dorado on a plate (Thank you) Local feeling should not be rebuffed Never rebuffed A-never rebuff a local feeling, no, my friend! It's tough to be a god But if you get the peoples' nod Count your blessings (Yeah!) Keep 'em sweet That's our advice (It's great advice!) Be a symbol of perfection Be a legend, be occult Take their praise, take the collection As the multitudes exalt Don a supernatural habit We'd be crazy not to grab it! (You got it!) So sign up two new gods for paradise Paradise!
Art is subjective, one is moved by what they feel, not by some arbitrary definition of professional quality defined by conforming to or breaking specific patterns. So they're both bops. Although I think Hunchback of Notre Dame has some great songs as well
I don't get why the soundtrack doesn't have the movie versions of this and The Trail We Blaze, those are way better than the soundtrack versions! Thanks for putting them up, I love this song. :)
I agree about this, but I thought there was only one version of The Trail We Blaze - the one they use in the film, isn't actually sung by the characters.
I was talking about this movie with my husband the other day. I said it's a classic and he disagreed. Am I just crazy or this movie a fricking CLASSIC?!
I haven't seen this movie in probably more than a decade, and about a month ago, something sparked a memory about this movie. I wanted to watch it again, but I completely forgot the title. Through about 2 hours of googleing, I FINALLY found it!!! I'm so glad I did. This is my favorite kids movie hands down.
My favourite animated movie since I was a kid. Now I have kids and they love it! Hearing this song never fails to make me happy, so many good memories!
I watched the movie because I had nothing else. I heard online it sucks but honestly... it's awesome! The characters and their dynamics are really unique, the songs are fun, the animation beautiful and the plot interesting to follow. Honestly, it's even more underrated than Tresor Planet
I love this movie and especially this song! Two best friends who got themselves into this wild adventure so they have to play along 😂😂😂😂😂😂👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼💗💗💗💗💗👏🏼👏🏼 This song captures their fun friendship so beautifully!
As a Bioinformatics student I can tell you all that this is the best thing to keep yourself alive (or awake, as you wish to call it) while programing; also helps you to keep your best mood up!
I'm so glad you have the movie versions of these songs - I like them better than the ones on the soundtrack - I don't know why they have different versions, but I love how you were able to get these without the sound effects! :)
As weird as it sounds, it was ahead of its time. It gives of a certain feeling of "bromance" which wasn't really a clear part of culture, to the point where you could make a animated film out of it at that time, but it is now, which is why it has such a cult following
Except that Kevin Kline and Kenneth Branagh's voice acting MAKES this film and a live action version with anyone but them would be god awful. I mean half the banter between Kline and Branagh was off the cuff.
I say no to all of that. There should never be a live-action version. For one thing, it's good the way it is. Secondly, people are getting SICK of remakes nowadays. It's tiring and unoriginal. The only people who do enjoy are the ones who don't focus on story or characters, but instead on graphic effects, and love to be pandered. Bottom line, not live action remakes EVER.
For some reason when listening to this, I had a lot more fun singing along with Tulio and Miguel than the movie. The music is a lot more pronounced as well!

I always love Dreamworks movie, epesially El Dorado. Every time I see a good movie on the big screen, if it's animated, I swear that I start wishing for Dreamworks to crossover with Kingdom Hearts. Sorry to go off topic, but it is interesting. Because I always say: "This a Dreamworks movie? Not Disney?! Oh wait, Dreamworks is not in Kingdom Hearts, Damn!" I get my hopes up. But with everyone agreeing with too many movies, in addition to tons of random dislikes, that's why Disney goes solo. Chicken Little and Star Wars had their limits. Ace upgrade for Chicken Little seems plausible, Star Wars Keyblades could be possibe too. There is this Keyblade Graveyard that have, well, you get the idea.

+Dracknid 10 lol I know right
Tulio is hilarious.
Otte Otte tulio is the man
nah i prefered miguel. he was the fun one even though they are both powerful gods so who am i to judge.
They had so much fun even the horse got drunk.😂😂 I remember that scene so well.
I like when the horse trots over the fire, the music in that segment makes you want to dance!!
And Goes to the camera
Azucena Martinez is this movie Disney?
Yep
Uhm.... They were more than drunk bud. 😅😅🤤🤤
I love how this is the only song that's sung in-universe by the characters and it's literally them realizing how completely absurd their predicament is and they're just like; Alright, let's roll with this. 😂😂😂
Just to blow your mind: when we first see Miguel and Tulio, they are rolling a rigged pair o' dice. A paradise. That cheats.
hehe..."paradise"..."pair-a-dice"
Coldplay
Rolled a pair of dice for a paradise
if this was D&D, The Road to El Dorado is one giant reason why the Rogue and the Bard shouldn't split from the group to go on an adventure :P
Very true haha
Then again, if they do, we get the Road to El Dorado so that’s good
Excuse me, this is one reason why the bard and rogue SHOULD go on an adventure together.
if this was dnd, all of the rolls would be either 1's or 20's
20s on bluffs, 1s on literally everything else until the final fight.
"Be a legend, be occult."
JelloApocalypse Oh shit.
I heard it being "be a cult."
Be a cult...
Be occult works, essentially means be mystical or supernatural... never mind the man behind the curtain
in.
I'm actually glad this movie flopped financially, that means Hollywood didn't get to fuck up the story with some horrible sequel.
You do have a point there my friend.
Always look on the bright side 👍👍👍
Or a live action version
Although Alladin wasn't that bad right?
fart lord f Aladdin was the worst lmao
@@imjustlucy_29 Very good point, so let's be viewers!
Miguel and Tulio, Mighty and Powerful GODS!!!
Helloooooo
+Dracknid 10 AAAAHHHHH
Love that part
The stars are not in position for this tribute.
Like he said, STARS..... can't do it...... not today.
Dale Quinton totally dnd characters.
A bard and rouge that have taught each other their best skills.
Now both can sing and lie, steal and charm.... perfect

it still upsets me that this soundtrack is not on spotify

Yeah it's sad the soundtrack it's there but there are some good covers on there. I found the cover done by Annapantsu and Elsie Lovelock and liked it
BRING BACK EL DORADO! THE MOVIE CRITICS MESSED UP ABOUT THE BAD RATINGS!
AGEED
It is an awesome movie!
Nobody in Hollywood thought that this movie would have a cult following, boy were they wrong. 🤷♂️
Alex H what else is new, movie critics are more about political messages now then they are about quality entertainment
Cole Halford ironic considering it’s about basically two men being mistaken for gods, when that is what a cult basically does
No, it's definitely occult. Occult is something a god would be, a "cult" is something only a group would be so it makes less sense in context.
JelloApocalypse what in the devil's suck hole are you doing here
Oh hey man!
I'm surprised you don't have more comments
actually it would be cult
denotatively yes, but this is an elton john movie. it's "a cult"
This comment is ancient
I like this version more than Elton John and Randy Newman's.
Ditto. It just feels like the only way it should be sung is in character.
The Elton John versions of this soundtrack are boring, if you ask me.
This is directly from the movie
me too
He made it jazzy which it shouldn't be
This song has so much life to it. You can tell they had fun singing it
They used to record their lines together (unusual for animation) so they could bounce off each other and improvise.
When a rogue and a bard make their own campaign
bruh mad nostalgia right now. this film is legit the best animated film. it's rare a song in every "album" or soundtrack or whatever is as good as these
Indeed I enjoyed this film allot on VHS
Whoa it's a good movie but best animated film..HELL NO. the prince of egypt destroyed i repeat DESTROYED this movie by a country mile. That movie was a masterpiece. Story, music plot. The road to El Dorado plot lacked structure and made up for it by the animation and music

I hardly think I'm qualified
To come across all sanctified

(Tulio, what are you talking about?)
There again they're on their knees
Being worshipped is a breeze
Which rather suits us in the interim
(The interim, the interim, that's me and him

It's tough to be a god
Tread where mortals have not trod
Be deified when really you're a sham
Be an object of devotion
Be the subject of psalms
It's a rather touching notion
All those prayers and those salaams
And who am I to bridle if I'm forced to be an idol?
If they say that I'm a god that's what I am!
What's more, if we don't comply with the locals' wishes
I can see us being sacrificed or stuffed
(You have a point, that's very good thinking)
So let's be gods, the perks are great!

Local feeling should not be rebuffed
Never rebuffed

Count your blessings
(Yeah!)
Keep 'em sweet
That's our advice
(It's great advice!)
Be a symbol of perfection
Be a legend, be occult
Take their praise, take the collection
As the multitudes exalt
Don a supernatural habit

This is a way better jam than Moana's "You're Welcome."
Why ? Your Speaking facts

Okay, but why compare them?
Art is subjective, one is moved by what they feel, not by some arbitrary definition of professional quality defined by conforming to or breaking specific patterns.
So they're both bops. Although I think Hunchback of Notre Dame has some great songs as well
After all these years, I just realized Tulio is getting more into the god role after he drinks the wine
Can't blame him, I feel the same way when I get drunk.
I don't get why the soundtrack doesn't have the movie versions of this and The Trail We Blaze, those are way better than the soundtrack versions! Thanks for putting them up, I love this song. :)
There isn't a definite answer but the cast and crew have the actual characters singing in a soundtrack.

MIGHTY AND POWERFUL GODS
There are some themes and behaviors in this film I just wouldn't want to echo in the next generation's mind.
@@flintwildpants8710 they'll learn it inevitably lol
💯💯💯
This movie is absolutely iconic. It brings back so many good childhood memories for me. The soundtrack is bomb.
TOULIO WHAT ARE YA TALKING ABOUT!?
Lol
the perfect song to sing with a friend just in case if we've discovered a lost civilisation that worships us as gods
I remember the movie from start to end still and ever time I listen to this song just the hole movie plays in my head
Our Bard played this when he took over a village full of Gnolls
both actors actually played Hamlet in two different movies. so both actors are AWESOME!
I was talking about this movie with my husband the other day. I said it's a classic and he disagreed. Am I just crazy or this movie a fricking CLASSIC?!
Divorce
This movie is definitely a classic
Oh absolute classic. Your hubby has no taste.
😮 is he ok?

time to rewatch it again!
You just can't be unhappy when listening to this song. One of my favorites
My favourite animated movie since I was a kid. Now I have kids and they love it! Hearing this song never fails to make me happy, so many good memories!
The songs in this movies are some of the best I've ever seen in movies.
Life lessons taught by Old Disney

@@AAARP Oh yeah. They made some good stuff didn't they.
For some reason now, this song made me think of Thor and Loki from the recent Marvel Thor films. Weird.
Me too!
Taylor Ward Funny, isn't it?
Yeah, I thought I was the only one who thought that.
Taylor Ward So did I!
DarkEcoMaiden I thought of them only after Armin and Eren from Attack on Titan came to mind
This is one of my all time favorite movies from when i was a child.

Honestly, it's even more underrated than Tresor Planet
I grew up with both of those films. I absolutely agree. The critical hate for this film is absurd.
I love this movie and especially this song! Two best friends who got themselves into this wild adventure so they have to play along 😂😂😂😂😂😂👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼💗💗💗💗💗👏🏼👏🏼 This song captures their fun friendship so beautifully!
I only wish this film had more character numbers.
I wish this movie was longer
Someone needs to make a video of Loki and Thor with this in the background. Or anything else with this in the background. Please.
I'm in.
Harvey Kinkle as Tuilo.
i got addicted to his song...DX
You know its gonna be a good movie when a horse gets drunk with the boys.

Omg I remember watching this as a kid (millions of times) and this was always my favourite part. Still love it.
This is my youth right here, and I love it!
This song just fills me with so much joy. It's a shame this version isn't on the official soundtrack.
I love this film, so many memories, still remember the lyrics
Remember kids: Critics aren't always right when it comes to judging a movie.
Brion Willis Although I would enjoy a live action reboot starring Neil Patrick Harris as Miguel and Robert Downey Jr. as Tulio.
After reading this I now realize I cannot live without seeing this.
Except that Kevin Kline and Kenneth Branagh's voice acting MAKES this film and a live action version with anyone but them would be god awful. I mean half the banter between Kline and Branagh was off the cuff.

[Tulio]
I hardly think I'm qualified
To come across all sanctified
I just don't cut it with the cherubim
[Miguel, spoken]
Tulio, what are you talking about?!
(Sung)
There again they're on their knees
Being worshipped is a breeze
Which rather suits us in the interim
[Tulio, spoken]
The interim, the interim, that's me and him
Oh my god!
(Sung)
[Tulio & Miguel]
It's tough to be a god
[Tulio]
Tread where mortals have not trod
Be deified when really you're a sham
Be an object of devotion
Be the subject of psalms
[Miguel]
It's a rather touching notion
All those prayers and those salaams
[Tulio]
And who am I to bridle if I'm forced to be an idol?
If they say that I'm a god that's what I am!
What's more, if we don't comply with the locals' wishes
I can see us being sacrificed or stuffed

You have a point, that's very good thinking
So let's be gods, the perks are great!

Count your blessings

Be a symbol of perfection
Be a legend, be occult

So sign up two new gods for paradise
Paradise!
Be Occult* not a cult, occult means mystical
I hardly think I'm qualified to come across all sanctified. I just don't cut it with the cherubim.
Tulio, what are you talking about?! There again, they're on their knees. Being worshiped is a breeze which rather suits us in the interim.
Interim, interim. It's me and him. Oh, my God!
It's tough to be a god.
Tread where mortals have not trod. Be deified when really you're a sham.
Be an object of devotion, be the subject of psalms.
It's a rather touching notion, all those prayers and those salaams.
And who am I to bridle if I'm forced to be an idol? If they say that I'm a god, that's what I am.
What's more, if we don't comply with the locals' wishes, I can see us being sacrificed or stuffed.
You have a point, yes, that's very good thinking.
So let's be gods; the perks are great. (Yeah.)
El Dorado on a plate. (Thank you!) Local feelings should not be rebuffed.
Never rebuff, never rebuff a local feeling, no my friend.
It's tough to be a god, but if you get the people's nod, count your blessings, keep 'em sweet, that's our advice.
It's great advice!
Be a symbol of perfection. Be a legend! Be a cult!
Take their praise, take a collection as the multitudes exalt.
Don a supernatural habit
We'd be crazy not to grab it!
You got it!
So sign on two new gods for paradise... par-a-dise!
This was the first animated movie I remember seeing, and it is still my favorite animated movie. Don't know why it got so much hate though. :/
I always love Dreamworks movie, epesially El Dorado. Every time I see a good movie on the big screen, if it's animated, I swear that I start wishing for Dreamworks to crossover with Kingdom Hearts.
Sorry to go off topic, but it is interesting.
Because I always say:
"This a Dreamworks movie? Not Disney?! Oh wait, Dreamworks is not in Kingdom Hearts, Damn!"
I get my hopes up.
But with everyone agreeing with too many movies, in addition to tons of random dislikes, that's why Disney goes solo. Chicken Little and Star Wars had their limits. Ace upgrade for Chicken Little seems plausible, Star Wars Keyblades could be possibe too. There is this Keyblade Graveyard that have, well, you get the idea.
And the funny thing to me it looks like a Disney movie
I love this song
"Smile. Like you mean it :) "
"Big smiles, like you mean it"
May i just say, the brass in this. Chefs kiss.
This is The Road to El Dorado’s only musical number and the only song sung by characters
