Boom Baby! ‘The Emperor’s New Groove’ Celebrates 25 Years with 4K Set & Special Theatrical Run
They also put out a Golden Book for TENG in September.
I hope they get some new toys, too. I'd love to have a Kuzco llama toy (stuffed or figurine).
TENG is one of my favorite movies. It was the subject of a lot of my earliest fanfiction (such as this: https://www.trekbbs.com/threads/the-emperors-new-groove-a-tale-of-two-llamas.316032/).
I also used to draw Kuzco the llama, and comics featuring the characters as stick figures getting into crazy situations (I don't know what happened to all of them - probably garbage long ago.) Here's how the stick figures looked:
I love Kuzco's sarcasm, Kronk's goodhearted innocence, Yzma's sass, Pacha and his family. I love that it's about friendship, and becoming a better person. "My Funny Friend and Me" was a great song. So many great quotable lines. And the Kronk sequel was fun, too. I've seen some of the animated series episodes.
I wonder if there'll be enough interest to get a Kuzco love story theatrical sequel. They paired him with Malina in the show, but if the Puss In Boots sequel can ignore Dulcinea and pair him with Kitty Softpaws, Kuzco can finally find love.
If they ever do a live-action version, instead of remaking TENG, maybe they could make what TENG almost was, "Kingdom of the Sun" instead.
