Saw the thumbnail and came RUNNIN
You know what’s up!
Where did you run too?
Be careful. Beware the groove....
Kronk is truly the best part of this film. That and the writers' idgaf attitude when writing the script ("by all accounts, it doesn't make sense") 😂😂
I caught that sense more than ever now that I’m older hahaha
In terms of Actors Who Were Born To Play A Role, I'd put Patrick Warburton's Kronk right up there with Robert Downey Jr.'s Tony Stark. He's just so damn perfect. Even people who haven't seen the movie know and love the character.
this is one of my favorite movies of all time, actually in my top 10. its just a feel good movie and it honestly never gets old~~
Treasure Planet is the one you are thinking of with the pirates and the kid with the hoverboard and its still an amazing movie that was destroyed by disney higher ups and a few missteps. If they hadn't tried to bury it im sure it'd be a beloved classic instead of a niche one. Helped create new animation techniques and everything and is up there with muppets treasure island for fun takes on the treasure island story.
18:52 based on the emperor's crown, i wanna say mayan.
Treasure planet next
Disney's most slept on gem
A gem none of the less!
@@JamesVSCinema facts lol
"It's called a cruel irony, like my dependence on you." 😂😂 Eartha Kitt's performance throughout this whole thing is just top tier gold.
You know a movie’s gonna be wild when it didn’t have a completed screenplay until after it premiered in theaters.
That I did not know!
This movie and Blair Witch are the only two I can think of that were made scriptless. Even Iron Man had some semblance of a script.
@@radwolf76 Spirited Away also had no script!
@@lycheefreeze That's generally been Miyazaki's approach to film making across his whole career.
I swear this film's humor and writing gets better as you get older. I enjoyed it as a kid and enjoy it even more as an adult.
This movie, Megamind, and Shrek are stories better suited for adults. Shrek is way more kid friendly tho. It might have something to do with the fact that the a lot of the VAs are SNL alumns
RIP Eartha Kitt voice of Izma. Such an amazing voice.
18:55 It's supposed to be Inca. Kuzko's name is inspired in the city of Cuzco, llamas and alpacas are iconic South American camelids, mountainous terrain is inspired in the Andes mountain chain, clothing and textiles are inspired in the andean cultures. Same with the architecture, you can even see a ton of Inti (the Sun God) symbology. Also, those are Inca rope bridges between the mountains.
Also the character design fits the art style too. You see it especially in the face profile of Pacha.
-Mannnnnnn...this movie still might be the funniest Disney movie cause it's like Disney took a bit of Looney Tunes. and Muppets humor and applied it here. Read the BTS stories on how this went from a musical drama to a comedy
- John Goodman is a treasure. He did this and Monsters Inc the year after
- Really shout out to the voice acting in this movie cause the delivery of these lines are top notch (especially Patrick Warburton and the late Eartha Kitt).
So happy to realize John Goodman was in this!
Completely agree about the entire cast, but I do reserve a special one for the team of Kitt and Warburton. And remember, while Kronk is a great character, part of what makes him so great is that Warburton and Kitt play off each other so well. Kitt is a major reason that Warburton was able to build his Kronk so beautifully.
I left a Reel Rejects reaction to be here, this absolutely takes precedence.
Those are homies! Hahaha get back to them after the video though 🙏🏽
I'm doing yard/ plant/ critter work while wearing a Reel Rejects hoodie and listening to James' reaction 😊✌💚
Lol - I've seen it so much i think i can just listen 😂 I've got headphones on but I keep wandering over to where I've parked the phone to watch 💜 it's so good !
This is such quality comedy. I was 30 when this came out but I imagine this is a very different experience as an adult if you saw it as a kid.
it definitely has gotten better as i grow older. this is probably my favorite disney animated film
The underrated flying skateboard pirate movie you mentioned is Treasure Planet. One of Disney's best underrated classics next to the teenage sexual awakening that was Atlantis: The Lost Empire. It's a retelling of Robert Louis Stevenson's book Treasure Island but in space! PLEASE WATCH IT.
Did you notice that the Cactus turned into a llama when she poured the poison on it? And when Kronk is doing his theme music and "hiding" the wall art is two guys pointing down at him. This movie is hilarious.
I consider this movie to be genuinely the funniest movie Disney has ever made
VHS treasure
"what's this based on?" the development of this movie is CRAZY, it's honestly worthy of a film itself. If you haven't the Vulture article "an oral history of the emperor's new groove," i can't recommend it enough-- both to you as a filmmaker AND a dude who loves good stories. (Random, but if you're looking for anime to watch & haven't seen Revolutionary Girl Utena, it'll blow your mind.)
Bro el dorado as an adult hits different
Lucky god.
The voice actor for Kronk is Patrick Warburton, who was the lead in my favorite superhero tv series... "the Tick" (2001) (totally worthy of reacting to the whole thing!)
I think this is one of those rare movies that's funnier TODAY than when it came out. I remember it being amusing when it first released, but I swear, the jokes in the movie feel tailored for today's humor
"Pull the lever Kronk!"
"WRONG LEVVERRRR!"
One of the all time best quotes in any movie hands down!
Even people quoting it became a meme, not just the scene itself!
We still need Zootopia SOOO BADLY!
LETS GO JAMES!!!! 🔥🔥🔥💯😎🤣🤣
Zootopia has an airtight script.
James! You gotta watch The Venture Bros! Patrick Warburton "Kronk" plays the ultimate bad-ass Brock Sampson. The show lasted 20 years but only 7 seasons because every episode was written and directed by the same two guys.
Noted!
This would be so sick to see you react too!
This movie is one of the GOATs. It just does not miss, no matter how much time passes
Love EARTHA KITT❤
Yes, that flying skateboard movie with pirates is called Treasure Planet, a total must watch you gotta see!
Came for the emperors new groove got a bonus courage the cowardly dog reference. Win
LMFAOOOO
This movie will never get old, nearly 25 years and my family/friends still quote it
Kronk is one of the best characters Disney ever created hands down
I mean, He's David Puddy in animated form.
As I understand it, apparently this movie was a disaster in production, and they creators had to begin again and start all over from scratch and this was the movie they were able to salvage / retool and the results are awesome and even better than planned.
Respectfully request the life-action Flintstone movie
Treasure planetttt was one of my absolute favorites growing up; I can’t wait
"Flying skateboard"?? Thats gotta be TREASURE PLANET!!! Love that movie!!
When Kronk went against the wall while doing his own theme music, I literally keeled over laughing. Probably the hardest I've ever laugh in the theatre lmao
Yes!!! Love that he put it in the intro.
I still randomly think of it and it makes me laugh 😂
That underrated "flying surfboard" movie with pirates you mentioned would be Treasure Planet. It's usually grouped with the last traditionally animated films before 3D animation took over you mentioned, like Atlantis: The Lost Empire. Even The Emperor's New Groove fell awkwardly between Disney's most successful period and what is often considered the beginning of the end for 2D animation, it went sort of under the radar at the time and a lot of people missed it. But yeah, there's still some real gems in there and I'd love to hear your thoughts on them.
Protip: posting The Road to El Dorado during Pride Month will get extra views for sure (signed, your friendly neighborhood lesbian lol 🌈)
This movie is basically 60 % of my childhood 😅
That’s a good thing 🤘🏽
Yes!! Love this film. Kronk is great!
Attempt #2 of James vs Howl’s Moving Castle!!
Top 3 fav kids movies…….EASY! My fam Jamesssss🙌
So I believe this movie was originally called “Kingdom of the Sun” and there’s a video about the history behind its production is bonkers. Also the villain Yzma is voiced by the icon and original Cat Woman Eartha Kitt. Also you’re thinking of “Treasure Planet” “Titan AE” that go along with “Atlantis”
Squeek squeeken squeek squeeker!! (Thank James!)
This is probably my favorite Disney movie, but a close second is the Brave Little Toaster. If you've never seen it, i highly recommend. It's from 1987 and so bizarre and hilarious.
If you haven't watched the sequel "Kronk's New Groove" you should, it's super cute too.
"Who would win, Kronk or Captain America?"
i dont know man i think they would be friends XD
What movie would you guys want me to VS?

Have a great day!
Godzilla Minus One?
Turning Red is a very anime-inspired Disney/Pixar movie. It's not similar to Emperor's New Groove except in that they both feel like unique styles for Disney.
Did you see The Aviator? If not, would be a great one!
I have two films that I think you should give a watch and under rated in my opinion, give a look Tale of Tales and Azur & Asmar: The Princes' Quest.
Flash Gordon (1980)
I went to my buddies house in high school to play video games and hang out for the night - at some point later in the evening he put this on, and I was not enthusiastic....
Turned out to be one of the best. I was already a fan of David Spade, so I think that really locked it up.
*Don't throw off the groove*
Dude on a flying skateboard + Pirates == Treasure Planet (2002) --> One of my all time favorite animated movies. 😄
In Atlantis == Atlantis: The Lost Empire (2001) --> Vinny is the funniest, nutty, pyrotechnic in film history!!
And El Dorado is obviously great for greatness's sake.
It still blows my mind that this film was a box office flop. In fact it is one of Disney’s least successful animated films.
It’s so GOOD though!
Patrick Warburton as Kronk steals the show, but Eartha Kitt's Izma keeps me coming back. Kitt was incredible in the '60s and incredible in 2000.
Eartha Kitt killed this role
by the way, there's a lesser known sequel called kronk's new groove it would be cool if you checked it out
Adopted my first cat this year and he came with the name Kronk! It was too perfect to change ❤❤❤
Fun fact- first Disney animated film to have a pregnant character
PLEASE watch Treasure Planet!! And Atlantis!
Kronk was my first intro to a "himbo".
Equality, baby!
I hope for the day you VS. Treasure Planet. Bro, please!
I HIGHLY recommend watching the unreleased/banned feature length making of documentary called The Sweatbox, directed by Sting's wife. It was never officially released because the production was so chaotic it made Disney look they have no idea what they're doing. Its a fascinating watch seeing how radically everything changed during production. Just google "The Seatbox" and it should be the first link to it on archive
Oh yeah, this Friday is all coming together
Bro treasure planet is the best you have to watch it again. It's even better with age😊
James, in your animation adventure, you should definitely check out the classics FERNGULLY: THE LAST RAINFOREST and THE BRAVE LITTLE TOASTER.
Ferngully is Robin Williams' first voice acting role, and there was heavy drama between the filmmakers and Disney, who tried desperately to sabotage the film so only they could have Robin play The Genie in Aladdin. Needless to say, Robin told them to pound sand.
As for Toaster...well, I'll just say don't underestimate a film about household appliances. Plus, the soundtrack absolutely slaps. Every song is a banger.
this reaction was squeakidy squeak squeakin, and i truly mean it
Cool. I`m excited!!! Let`s gooo.
Treasure Planet next
That’s the one!
Yes^^^
You should also watch Kronk's New Groove
Kronk is the best Disney character, hands down
Incan empire! Also W naruto reference.
Good looking out!
First of Yzma’s disrespect towards Kronks spinach puffs was diabolical. I would be scarfing those.
Kronk is best boy. As well as John Goodman’s character. They are just soooo wholesome. This movie is on my Disney Mt Rushmore
This movie kicks an unreasonable amount of ass
Perhaps Disney's best work.
James, you can’t say that you took a photo of a llama in Colorado and not include said picture of the llama!! Give us that sweet llama tax!!!!
This movie is based on Incan myths.
They dont make them like this anymore
Can you do Menace II Society next please?
That would be a great one!
I´ve always thought the montain's supposed to be Machu Pichhu since this movie is based in Peru
That was my assumption too.
Over on Tumblr, someone was running a poll bracket for hottest women from old movies, and out of 540 contestants, Yzma's voice actress Eartha Kitt reigned supreme.
yes please do Austin Powers
Yay! I'm a llama again!
Wait...
Do Austin powers!
Yay! I'm a llama again!
Look up “Snuff out the light” the deleted song from Eartha Kitt
The trumblr threads of this FIRE film back in the day... the memes that were born...
legendary unforgettable times
Your Kronk impression is SPOT ON!! Don’t stop with it EVER!! Haha 🤣
I think you should check out Four Rooms, its a little known anthology, with segments directed by Robert Rodriguez and Quentin Tarantino. Starring Tim Roth and appearances from Antonio Banderas, Salma Hayek, Madonna and Bruce Willis.
The ones you're referring to at the end are (in order) Treasure Planet, Atlantis The Lost Empire and Road to El Dorado. And just like Emperor's New Groove, they were box-office underperformers ... Treasure Planet was notoriously thrown under the bus as Disney's excuse to cut their hand-drawn features out of commission. But they've grown the big fanbases they deserve since then. I also have a soft spot for The Spongebob Squarepants Movie, which Nickelodeon haphazardly herded out like the rest of its big-screen spinoffs of its shows but didn't count on Stephen Hillenburg & co. writing some of the most iconic comedy scenes of the early 2000s.
I have always loved this movie so much. Yzma is one of my favorite Disney villains. She makes me cackle, and is just perfect casting because without a voice as unique as Eartha Kitt's (RIP to a Queen), her lines wouldn't be half as funny. There's a great moment of illustrating Kuzco being hated by ending his eulogy with "Welp, he ain't gettin' any deader" and all the palace workers just tossing their candles lol. Also the Courage episode you're talking about is "The Hunchback of Nowhere"!
I've watched many of your reaction vids and have greatly enjoyed listening to your takes. Unless I'm mistaken, you haven't reacted to many animated films. What do you think is the director's role in an animated film? Have you ever seen Ghost in the Shell (1995) or Ghost in the Shell 2.0 (a digitally "remastered" version of the original, not a sequel)? Both top tier in my opinion.
Yzma turning into a cat was pretty likely a shout out to one of Eartha Kitt's most famous roles: Catwoman, as the replacement for Julie Newmar in the 1960s tv series. Not only was she a purrrfect Catwoman, with her distinctive feline voice, but she was the first woman of color to step into the role, and did she ever enjoy herself: ruclips.net/video/GojaLNUGmuY/видео.html.
(This was a very silly, campy show (I grew up with it....), but it knew what it was and went for it. On to top of that, it became a comeback place for several actors who had been blacklisted by HUAC).
Kitt found herself in political trouble during the sixties, when she confronted First Lady Johnson about inadequate solutions for crime and the strife at home over the war. Her own come back was on Broadway, in the production of "Timbuktu!", (based on the musical and the play "Kismet"). Here is a grainy but magical clip of Kitt's entrance, her number, and an example of how she holds the audience in the palm of her hand, while caressing every double meaning she wants to: ruclips.net/video/3Wc_JDBsqeE/видео.html
The Emperor's New Groove is by far my favorite animated Disney film, as well as one of my favorite comedies, period, and Yzma is one of my all-time favorite villains. Absolutely hysterical.
It's incredibly important to me to know if you've heard of/seen Kronks New Groove
If you haven't seen the 1991 animated film 'Fievel Goes West,' I think you would appreciate it.
Bless your hearts for coming out in public...
Sarcastic, caustic, biting, get the f. over yourselves, humour is where it was at, and nobody does it better than Spade.
This may be my favourite animated film of all time - although there is, ‘The Nightmare Before Christmas’ - because it just has so many surprisingly great, fresh, and hilarious lines. It’s also very difficult to beat this cast.
Thanks for making videos eh.
1. Kronk never change
2. Did you purposely sync the grooves o’s and your glasses for this or was it pure coincidence??? Lol
Cuz I got heavily distracted at some point as it kept happening! 🤣🤣😅
There are few things I wouldn't do for Patrick Warburton's voice
Kronk is the only reason I liked this film. Squeekity squeek squeek! 🤣🐿 Also Yzma as a cat is adorable.
Treasure Planet, El Dorado, and Atlantis would be great for a watch through. If you want underrated I would also suggest Ferngully and The Secret of NIMH
This movie is SO beloved here in Brazil. It's most likely everyone's favorite, if not, definitely top #5. :) hope you have fun.
I'll admit, when the trailers for this movie were coming out, I had my reservations. Because when you compare the art styles for ENG vs the previous Disney movies, it felt like a huge leap.
But the humor was ON POINT. The fact that my friends and I used so many of the lines afterwards just shows how good it was. But it was a bit of a turning point for Disney animation, where some of their animation movies started missing, and Pixar starting gaining in popularity.
The Emperor's New Groove, The Road to El Dorado, Treasure Planet, The Iron Giant, Atlantis The Lost Empire....There were so many great 2D animated movies in late 90s-early 00s.
