Trivia:

Pacha's name means "earth" in the Incan Language.

Goofs:

Incorrectly regarded as goofs: At the resturant when Kuzco is dressed as a female, he is wearing Pacha's poncho as a dress. He can be seen taking it off and dropping it near the restaurant, so when Pacha is wearing it later, it could well be because he's picked it up.

Quotes:

Bug in jungle:[Bug gets caught in spiders web] Help me! Help me!
[Spider comes and eats the bug off-screen]
Bug in jungle:Too late...
Kuzco:Ok... that's the freakiest thing I've ever seen...

I'm 23 and I still LOVE this movie

Disney has done it again with a FUNNY FUNNY FUNNY FUNNY (how many funnies is that? 4?...not enough) FUNNY FUNNY FUNNY (you get the point) movie.

Picture this. 2 friends and I walk into a local movie rental shop and start arguing over the NEW releases. Horror movie? No. Slasher flick? No. Drama? No. Etc, Etc, Etc. Finally, as if it were fate, we all walk into the Disney/Children section of the shop. One suggest "Emperors New Grove". The rest automatically agree... and we weren't disapointed.

David Spade is brilliant as the voice of the Emperor in this movie. His humour was definatly evident throughout the entirity. Speaking of the humour... it was funny. Ha, ha. Ain't I a kidder? Seriously though, I have to say that this is the funniest Disney movie that I've ever seen... and it's definaly because of the cast... who were brilliant in all their roles. There was a lot of adult humour in this one though. Nothing gross or sexually oriented or anything, but just grown up... intelligent... making it a fabulous watch.

If you haven't seen this, then I suggest you do... and soon.
