In August 2. 01. 2, it was The Aristocats, The Rescuers, The Rescuers Down Under, Pocahontas, Pocahontas II Journey to a New World, The Tigger Movie and Lady and the Tramp II Scamps Adventure, all released on the same day.

And now animation fans can add six more movies to their Blu ray collection with Atlantis The Lost Empire, Atlantis 2 Milos Return, Lilo Stitch, Lilo Stitch 2 Stitch Has a Glitch, The Emperors New Groove and Kronks New Groove. But something is amiss this go around. Once again, the original films and their direct to video sequels are paired on single BD 5. This time, though, only Atlantis includes special features on the Blu ray disc itself. Extras for Lilo Stitch and The Emperors New Groove and their sequels are relegated to the bonus DVD copies in each 2 Movie set. Moreover, video and audio are vastly improved, but the transfers suffer from a number of admittedly minor issues. Dit is een lijst met animatiefilms van lange duur, chronologisch gerangschikt.

Emperor Kuzco is turned into a llama by his exadministrator Yzma, and must. Combined with the displaced extras, its hard to miss Disneys diminishing standards. Packing a 2 Movie Collection on a single disc is becoming more and more important to the studio more important than delivering the fullest, most intuitive experience. And the films The theatrically released features are as divisive as ever. Some will find them decidedly desperate and unimaginative a pale imitation of the Disney Renaissance greats. Others, like myself, will find a few flawed but fun, and one Lilo Stitch a bonafide classic, seeing the trio as a not so distant spiritual extension to those same Renaissance classics. The direct to video sequels, though, arent nearly as polished or entertaining on the whole, making the 2 Movie Collections hit or miss pairings primed to placate longtime fans and underwhelm the unconverted. One of Disney Animations most tumultuous productions, The Emperors New Groove was practically doomed almost from the start. The Nest Review. Ongoing delays, title changes, indecisiveness, crippling creative differences, jarring shifts in the films tone, abysmal test screenings, executive threats, director departures, an eleventh hour overhaul and an ever narrowing release window were just a few of the seemingly insurmountable hurdles incoming filmmaker Mark Dindal faced when signing onto the project, which makes the resulting film a watchable. Its not a classic miracle, or even a very remarkable one. But with big heart and bigger laughs, Disneys 4. It isnt hard to identify Grooves issues. Emperor Kuzco SNL alum David Spade, the arrogant Incan ruler whos transformed into a lowly llama, delivers a whole lot of snark and very little spark. Pacha John Goodman, the broad shouldered peasant who befriends the soon to be humbled emperor in new clothes, has even less of a backstory to build on than hastily developed Kuzco. And far too much time is spent with villains Yzma Eartha Kitt, the treacherous advisor to the king, and Kronk Patrick Warburton, her loyal stooge. The problems dont end there either. The script is a patchwork quilt of competing ideas. Many of the jokes and sight gags are much too self aware. The point A to point B adventure suffers from SMCS Saturday Morning Cartoon Syndrome. The animation promotes style and modern sensibility over everything else. Think Hercules on a tinier scale. And the film isnt all that cohesive, or the slightest bit surprising for that matter. Predictability rules supreme over Kuzcos return to the throne, and formula is heaped atop formula. Maybe its that adversity, though, that lends The Emperors New Groove its strength. The voice performances, animation and script never quite gel or impress, but each one is energetic and eager to please, and that translates to excitement and enthusiasm you just cant bottle and reproduce. Even thirteen years after its release thirteen years in which the films pop culture references have only aged I found myself laughing. Quiet laughs. Explosive laughs. Breath stealing laughs. Groove is funny, and retains a breakneck momentum thats murder on pacing but a godsend for comedy. Considering the films many, many trials and tribulations, its various incarnations and its hurried to theaters release, its a wonder any of it clicks, much less works. None of it saves The Emperors New Groove from its most fundamental flaws and scattershot stylings, but as lesser Disney fare goes, theres plenty of room for its rapidfire wit, fits and flourishes in any animation fans collection. Disneys DTS HD Master Audio 5. Rear speaker activity is light but effective, and what it lacks in immersion it makes up for whenever Groove indulges in bursts of comedy and song. The same could be said of LFE output, which is restrained but reliable, lending punch as needed and power on occasion. Through it all, voices are crystal clear and nicely prioritized, directionality is decidedly decent, pans are smooth and dynamics are on point. No, The Emperors New Groove isnt a sonic powerhouse. Its simply a breezy, fully capable, seemingly effortless presentation of its source, and in this case, thats a very good thing.
