Disney peaked with the Emperor’s New Groove

Eartha Kitt’s performance as Yzma…the music…the comedy…the Kronk. It is a perfect film

Additional reasons:

• Every single character is a PoC
• First Disney animated film to show a pregnant woman onscreen
• Real relationship goals: Pacha and ChiCha
• Really diverse body types on everybody!
• Classic tropes and classic tropes subverted (enemies to friends, anyone?)
• Kronk

Diverse body type: Llama

Also Kuzko’s character arc is nice to see, instead of ‘be yourself’ it’s like ‘hey, don’t be an asshole’ and he actually learns it

Also r*mance wasn’t at the center of the story, growth was, and that was really refreshing

Also the STYLE:

• the random cliffs and ledges and peaks and plummets. 
• the weird-ass, completely inefficient architecture that served no real functional purpose other than to be big and grand and showy. 
• that fucking 90 foot throne
• the fact that Yzma was lounging on a ledge next to a bottomless chasm somewhere in the middle of the palace 
• the COLORS oh my god enough of this desaturated, gritty, hyper-realistic bullshit i wanna see GAUDY DECADENCE for the sake of DECADENCE again
• Yzma is literally purple and looks like a skeleton and yet somehow no one is bothered by it and she somehow looks fabulous
