Yeahhhh, I doubt that. :P
Life is not about the second chances. It's about a little mouse and his voyage to an exciting new land. That, my friend, is what life is.

Sir, do you have any Warrants?
I got their first CD, but you can't have it, motherfucker!

Some people hate that movie, though.

Either way, I'll keep my expectations the same as Tangled. Just hoping for a decent and fun movie.

That movie is amazing.

The Emperor's New Groove is easily the funniest Disney movie. Getting compared to that should be a compliment...

Unless you are one of the people who hate it.

It's reception has improved over time but it wasn't too warmly received when it first came out.

Other than David Spade being the lead character.... I'm drawing a blank on what people hated about it. New Groove is probably one of the most entertaining films, if only cause it felt different from what people expected from a Disney Animated Film at the time. Sure, I can understand the time it came out when DAC quality was wavy.

You just nailed why. It was really different from what Disney was doing, plus it was when the general quality of the films was going down.

That being said, times are different now and we can see it for the good movie it is. But I remember being in the minority when it came out of people that liked it.

To be fair, yeah, I know some people in the Disney community (and Doug Walker) who don't like how TENC is written more like a Warners short than a traditional Disney movie.

But what's wrong with that? Do you really want every movie to be a fairy tale or Lion King? Never mind the Disney fans who REALLY hate that one.

I think there's a sizable group of haters for every Disney movie. Just ENG was unfortunate to had come out when public opinion on animated Disney films was pretty low. It was hard convincing some people I knew to give it a chance but they usually liked it when they did.

Emperor's New Groove is great, just watched it the other night after people were badmouthing it on GAF.  People are so stupid.
