VIDEO WAS BLOCKED IN EVERY COUNTRY. DOING MY BEST TO GET AROUND IT! Sorry for reupload.
I love you videos!!!
I love your channel, I'm glad I got a reason to watch it more
Moral support
UA-cam being UA-cam I guess.
You go above and beyond for us, thank you! @BionicPig
The movie could be summarized as A rogue and a bard goes on their own side quest which turns into a main quest
Nah. The best way to summarize the movie is like this:
"On the one hand, GOLD. On the other hand, PAINFUL AGONIZING FAILURE."
I think a good addition to that summary is that their dice rolls are exclusively 1’s and 20’s
For we must all appear before “the judgment seat of Christ, so that each of us may receive what is due us for the things done while in the body, whether good or bad.” (2 Corinthians 5:10)
We will be judged for every deed we do whether is be good or bad. This isn’t something to worry about even if our bad deeds out weigh our good. Because none are good before God, all have sinned against Him and cursed His name, but He in His tender loving mercy hath given us His Son as our ransom. When Jesus was dying all of Gods wrath and judgement was poured out onto Him even though He was sinless. He was sacrificed and tortured on our behalf though we are sinful and carnal. Christ payed our sin debt with His perfect sinless blood so we may escape judgment and have everlasting life. But this great gift is only for those who accept it and accept Him ❤️
rouge is a color
I just love when in a coment section about cartoon movie about gold and adventure there is alweys atleast one guy going on about JESUS and a BIBLE it makes me crack up
I love that the Chief knew they weren't gods but played along to screw over the Priest's power plays.
I think he recognized the actual benefits to the people that these two accident it brought about. It’s evidence he cares about his people more than titles or authority
@@thune4944 oh, definitely. He was tired of having to sacrifice them.
Nah he’s just a bro.
its so fucking genius honestly. that took like 90% of the sting of any percieved racism. It just says without spelling it out "this is a con-man story set in an Aztek/conquistador aesthetic, it does not mean to say that the aztecs are exceptionally connable as a racial trait, but simply that the story takes place there"
@@kettenschlosd reminds me of how the spaniards conquered my country. All it takes is a couple countrymen who are promised riches to stand aside.
It's notable that Chel is not only portrayed as beautiful, but also as smart and competent. She's not the typical exotic savage woman rescued by the white hero, she has agency and is an equal partner to them, she doesn't want him because she's struck by his heroism or smarts, she knows who he is and she's choosing to jump his bones. It really avoid the worst racist and sexist elements of the "white protagonist with native love interest" trope
Yeah i liked that too. I was tired of a woman falling in love with the protagonist and all she does is love him.
Yes ! I love her agency and autonomy! SHE makes decisions
Chel is a high tier character I don’t care what anyone says. She’s very integral to the plot of the movie and Tulio and Miguel’s survival in the city. She’s her own person in the movie and is a great 3rd lead and anchor to Miguel and Tulio’s serious and wild dynamic.
I started reading this comment just as the vid started playing, and I thought " why is this guy talking about the protagonist from Portal? "
And then I remembered.
Ssssssssssssssssss cringe comment :/
As for the part about being "a cult" the lyrics are actually "be occult" meaning like mystical and magic not an actual cult lol
This also fits cause a lot of gods are seen as all-powerful beings.
Doesn't cult mean any worship system ever, and not only a totalitarian sect?
@@JaneXemylixayes, the world “cult” has negative stimga around it, people only think of doomsday cults rather than the various other kinds. technically all religions are cults
Chel one of the baddest women in film history, saying it now
Such a shame that she's "off limits", eh?
@@osmanyousif7849 she's not under 18, right..?
@@Culo_Sniffin_Cheezit no
@@Culo_Sniffin_Cheezit she's not real
@@cruz6538 still is weird if she was under 18 tho
The way she climbed off of him, definitely a dismount
I know right, the animators knew what they were doing.
at the time, Dreamworks had animated movies that deal with heavy subjects like anxiety (Antz), generational trauma and high family rivalry following tradition ( The Prince of Egipt) and subverting expectations (Shrek).
what i love about this movie is that, even when it has the "white savior" trope, the protagonist didn't stayed to be praized for the locals: they literaly turned their back to fame and fortune to save the people of El Dorado. i love this movie.
I def wouldn’t water down the prince of Egypt to “high family rivalry following tradition”. That film tackled deep biblical themes of resentment, love, humility and arrogance. It wasn’t just a rivalry
antz had a literal depiction of an ant battle with a literal beheading and the very blatant moral of "war is hell"
in a kids movie
@@InnerAtanih God damn Prince of Egypt is a good fucking film.
yea but most of the movie they was using natives to their needs and they didn't care about it.
@@YasonYou istg I loved it when just randomly watching it on Netflix one day.
Nobody gonna talk about the line Miguel says when they fear they will be sentenced to death in their arrival to the city:
"Tulio, I just want you to know, I'm sorry about that girl in Barcelona."
A prequel set in Barcelona would have been amazing.
That line was hilarious 22 years ago and it's still hilarious now lol
Ya know, the real God, is the guy who can LITERALLY pound on the ground and make dice move! He has the power of an earthquake in his hands! How no one in the movie reacted to this is unbelievable. Great movie, very underrated, similar to that one animated Sinbad movie.
Meh Yujiro destroys him
I hurt myself as a kid trying to recreate that lol
I grew up watching both of these movies
i like the head-cannon that the gods allowed for Miguel and Tulio to understand the local's language and speak it without noticing because they where aware the Spaniards would come, didn't know how but needed some sort of plan to keep their people safe. had they killed tulio and miguel then more spaniards would come, nothing would be solved or learned.
we aren't hearing english, but rather the translational powers of the gods themselves in a desperate plan to save their people with two baffoons and a horse
so zecklecon was right, the gods where there, just, they wherent in the bodies of the forieners, he was wrong because the gods where loosing their patience with him maybe?
i think that chel. was the main god doing this all along.
i also think the armadilo was a god but that's more just because, who wouldn't want to be an armadilo if they had shape shifting god powers?
I was just thinking the gods were real in this movie cus you'd think there'd be a pile of discarded gold where the priest emerged after plunging into the whirlpool but nope. Not one piece of gold, it was sent to the spirit world.
@@jessicaable5095 THIS IS ACTUALLY AMAZING thanks for pointing that out, i suppose that means the gods rejected him as a religious leader for good then if he didnt make it to xilblba through the portal? i can imagine a conversation as he starts getting close being like: "ew gross we dont wan this guy, post pONE I SAID POST PONE SEND HIM BACK PLEASE" wonder if he would make it there after death, what would that conversation be like? or would his spirit be trapped on earth?
@@mannleedickson4238 exactly! Or they purposely send him to lead Quortez (sorry for spelling) so that Miguel and Tulio would notice their approach in time to seal the gate, which fits beautifully with your theory
I remember hearing the armadillo was supposed to be revealed to be a God but ultimately changed in the final product 🤔
That is actually a really damn interesting theory! Thanks for sharing!
As a Mexican when I was young I really adored this movie because I had never seen an American movie that portrayed my ancestors culture in a positive way, even less had I seen a female character with Indigenous features being portrayed as the main love interest and the most attractive in the whole movie. One thing I will say that annoys me is the fact that they’ve blended together Mexica(Aztec) and Mayan cultures into 1. For example Xibalba is a Mayan word and the myth of el dorado is based on the fact that the Spanish thought the Mayans had vast amounts of gold because the Mayans would create tools and build temples made of obsidian which has tiny gold colored veins when the sun shines on it. While the Mexica were the ones who were conquered by Hernan Cortez and had the water channels used for transportation around Tenochtitlán that are shown in the city scenes. It was also the Mexica leader who welcomed Hernan Cortez because he “thought”(which is debatable) that the white men were the physical forms of one of their gods due to a prophecy which foretold the arrival of people from the otherside of the sea.
Very true but I’m guessing they did those things to add visual/story depth. Still not the most amazing choice, but they definitely did it for a stylized movie
Well el Dorado doesn't exist so by blending the cultures you can have a fictional world with a fictional population and still making a commentary on real historical events, I think is a nice touch
It was amazing seeing Chel with those features and all the other characters of El Dorado too. The culture was portrayed with the positivity they deserves. Also Chel was my first childhood crush 🥰🥰
I think they kept vague where in America they're supposed to be so they didn't have to stick to one single culture. It's not accurate or the most sensitive, but I think it's relatively well done. The indigenous people is portrayed as civilized and peaceful. And they're shown to be people, not just pets or savages. All that is much better that could be expected back then, even now you see much worse.
@@Cesaryeyo ESPECIALY in the early 2000's man I wanted to BE in El Dorado while watching this, there aren't a lot of movies from the early 2000's and earlier that depicted indigenous life that made you want to be there with the characters.
This movie is a huge piece of my childhood, being hispanic myself. And I can speak for most guys here when I say Chel was absolutely a sexual awakening fo4 many of us
Geez, could you imagine a fan-fic people have about her, Miguel and Tulio?
Tulio, Miguel, and Chel: (all staring at each other) Both? Both.
I'm a heterosexual woman and Chel was a sexual awakening for me lol
For we must all appear before “the judgment seat of Christ, so that each of us may receive what is due us for the things done while in the body, whether good or bad.” (2 Corinthians 5:10)
We will be judged for every deed we do whether is be good or bad. This isn’t something to worry about even if our bad deeds out weigh our good.

@@criticalsurria6773 good thing that such benevolent being only treats people better if they pledge their allegiance to them, you filth cultists should know when to shut your mouths
As someone who looks mexican (25% hispanic) i agree
The story of the man of El Dorado actually has some merit as there was a ritual in people would throw that gold mixture into a lake, where it now STILL rests. Amazing, there were many attempts to take the gold from the bottom of the lake, all in failure. The final attempt was to drain the lake, which only served to dry the dirt and claw at the bottom, basically turning it to concrete and making it impossible to remove the gold. After that, it was made illegal to try to remove the gold.
If you want to start believing spiritual beings exist, I'd say research just how many times they tried and how hard they tried to get the gold.
yes the maya threw gold into cenotes which they believed were door ways to Xibalba( their cultures underworld)
when I went to Cancun I swam in a cenote and tbh it did look like a portal to the underworld you couldn’t even tell how deep it was cause of the darkness. They also made us all wear life jackets because many people have drowned due to them underestimating the depth.
they didnt try turning into a giant stone jaguar to try and retrieve the gold?
@@Cristopher.C nah, they didn't have enough exp for that spell.
Lmao if your best evidence for the supernatural is mud getting hard....well...I'm not convinced sweetie.
The scene where the chief singe-handedly holds back the giant pillar from falling prematurely and crushing the boat with Tulio and Chel on it is badass and still gives me chills
Chief Tannabok is the cool uncle in-law related to the crazy ex who just wants everyone to be chill
I am mexican and I loved this movie when I was a child, and some of the historicals references are pretty obvious because they teach us about prehispanic history and the Hispanic conquest
Shoutout to Mijares who sings all the Spanish versions of the songs
They knew they couldn't replicate Elton John's singing so they went in a very different direction, and frankly it turned out great
I dont understand mexico sometimes seeing that they treat indigenous as uneducated but the amount of brains they had running the whole shebang required a high iq. Aqueducts arent something someone stupid can envision.
Rifado el mijares
@@alexl9334 it is a complex problem, your question has the same extent of an answer as if you were asking why the USA has the biggest problem of racism (within the American continent at least)
@@alexl9334 white people came and took everything. That means the rich people have always been the whitest, thus the people with indigenous looks have usually been working class, which makes them discriminated. Like all discrimination it has no basis on anything except "I can take, I can kill, so I'm superior" it's dumb but at least we're slowly realizing it. Too slowly, but it's something
Ain't no way in hell I'm missing this a second time! Love your work!
here in Mexico el dorado is one of the beloved treasures of kids' movies, and one of the reasons for that is that in Mexico the songs were dub by none other than MIJARES, a singer beloved in Mexico, seriously hear the Spanish version it's really well done
I love the fact that it's actually liked in Mexico, because one of the main criticisms of movie reviewers in the US was that the show was racist.
@@austinblackburn8095 the singer for the dub songs makes the experience better, and i have yet to find people in mexico that dsilike this movie for a racism complain
One of my favourite movies growing up, in part due to the splendid chemistry between Kevin and Kenneth, who recorded their lines together in the same recording booth.
OK, but, can we talk about a few things about how the natives are portrayed? One, the strong implication that the chief was fully aware that the two weren’t gods but was trying to keep Tzekel-Kan from continuing his power play. Two, the fact that Tulio and Miguel are clearly practiced con-men, so they are good at tricking people. It isn’t portrayed as solely a “naive natives” thing, as they similarly tricked Spaniards back home.
Three, though this is a bit of a stretch, is the interpretation that the gods that the people of El Dorado believe in are real, and are manipulating events to ultimately protect their city from Cortes and Tzekel-Kan. This is why the two tricksters seem to have incredible luck at various times, and why the volcano thing happened the way it did. In my opinion it’s as good an interpretation as any.
Four, there’s Chel, who is clearly cut from the same cloth as Tulio and Miguel in being clever, manipulative and primarily into personal gain. Her, combined with Tzekel-Kan and the invader Cortes, avert the usual trope of the native people being all pure and pliable against the patronising white heroes. No, there are good people, bad people and middling, selfish people represented relatively equally throughout the movie.
Couldn't have put it better myself (Seriously, I most likely couldn't have). It's one of the things that gave me a newfound appreciation for this classic when I rewatched it.
You say the truth, my friend
Somewhere in my top three animated movies ever made. Absolutely love The Road to Cheldora- I mean, El Dorado.
(Seriously though, it really is a contender for my favorite animated movie of all time).
What’re the other two?
@@kalebtewodros Not totally sure, but I'll drop some contenders.
The Emperor's New Groove
Treasure Planet
The Incredibles
Megamind
Shrek
Any one of these I'd consider adding to that top three. Shrek would probably be more top ten or tens range, but still up there.
@@evanblake5252 respectable
@@kalebtewodros 🤙
The intro is exactly the point of the movie. They are making fun of that European twisting of the myth, the way they conflate all of the cultures that they could not recognize as cultures since the Europeans were so self-absorbed... It's actually smart, not obliviously offensive.
“Were they just burning the forest?” Probably. Idk about back then, but it’s a pretty common practice to simply burn away large chunks of a forest or jungle instead of trying to navigate through it.
They actually found a city that’s the size of New York recently. When the Spanish went to the Amazon they came back talking about massive city’s. But they also brought diseases. So in the 10-20 years it took for them to get back. The jungle had already taken back the land. And the lost city’s disappeared. Most don’t realize how fast the jungle will take the land back.
What is the name of this city?
@@baochau3259 🤷♂️ I’m not the one who found the city. So don’t ask me
Every time I watched this I got
"Magdalena Solís, known as The High Priestess of Blood, was a Mexican serial killer and cult leader responsible for orchestrating several murders which involved the drinking of the victims' blood. The murders were committed in Yerba Buena, San Luis Potosí, during the early 1960s with brothers and petty scammers Santos and Cayetano Hernández, devised a ploy to help them acquire wealth fast from the village." Vibes
God the accuracy is jarring
@@pixiestxNyomouf I'm sure I ruined someone's childhood
@@CrypticAlley, knowing Mexico's government back then, he probably had a bunch of cops and perhaps the local mayor on his payroll.
Bruh imma be honest this was my favorite movie as a child, but then, tragedy struck, as on my birthday when I was 8, the vcr player did the whole scramblies of my favorite movie😭
On your birthday, that is a true betrayal
I remember the exact moment My tape broke and it was during my favorite scene where they sung it’s tough to be a god end I’ll never forget it
My condolences
I love this movie. I remember seeing it in theaters when I was a kid, and I remember having a bunch of the happy meal toys from McDonald's. The jaguar was the only fun one because it would jump when you wound it up.
Nobody can convince me tulio and Miguel have not banged it out before
my uncle worked on this movie and there was a HUGE push for them to make Miguel and Tulio's relationship more obvious, with 'darlings' and 'my dears' and ' my loves' but of COURSE that got wiped, so they had to try REALLY HARD to shove in all of the subtext lol.
@@TheSylvirr oh the sexual tension cuts steel
@@TheSylvirr You say "OF COURSE" like that's a bad thing.
@@Disciple_JK Yes, because it is
Thank you! I was looking for someone to mention how much sexual tension they had!!! Sorry but there's no way tulio and miguel aren't at least bi lol
why is that little dancing guy so funny xd distracted me a little from the actual video a couple times because it made me laugh
This movie has been a beautiful thing that me and my sister watched ritually every year. We somehow manage to find details to enjoy on every rewatch since the VHS release. It is a fantastic, adventure movie that, of course isn't perfect, but is a watch I recommend for every kind of person. Truly a masterpiece and labour of love
Everyone: “Your feelings for her. Are not real”
No one:
Literally no one:
“THEY ARE REAL TO ME”
man I just see the Galen Marek scene from force unleashed 2
I love how for all of the disagreements of the protagonist they can all agree that "Fuck Cortez actually, he's not getting in here even if it means we don't get everything we want."
Well they did get flogged by the guy, and if this was real life I didn't see any females on the boat. The Americas are so far away and Miguel be looking a little feminine so who knows what happened there just saying.
@@austinblackburn8095 o my god you really had to go there didnt you😅
@@austinblackburn8095, probably nothing of THAT sort happened (...Yet), but those two definitely got flogged hard before escaping, and if history is anything to go by, much, MUCH worse things awaited them in Cuba.

Why was that Eren edit so smooth? Anyway, yeah this movie is great. Watched this and alot of other animated disney films as well. Wished we still got more today...
Also Chel makes me go 😮💨😮💨😮💨
exactly
also ERENNNN YEEEEAGER
Glad someone else sees this movie for what it is, a masterpiece
most kids here in mexico learn about hernan cortes around age 7, so watching this movie with the historical references and easter eggs is kinda neat (also, we read "the man who would be king" in my high school sophomore year, and bc I watched this one a bit after that it just hit different)
I find their portrayal of Cortes here to be hilarious. In the movie, he's a buff, ultra-pious conquistador set on conquering the New World for the glory of Spain. But in real life, he was a scrawny nobleman's son who ran away from home to get his own slave plantation in Hispaniola and then took a medium-sized high school's worth of criminals and out-of-work veterans (which makes his "My crew were as carefully chosen as the disciples of Christ..." all that more hilarious) on what many assumed to be a one-way suicide missions so he could get himself more gold and more slaves.
The movie is really good in English, bit it's almost perfect in Latin American Spanish. The soundtrack in Spanish is just *chefs kiss* and the voice acting is just phenomenal. This has always been my favorite animated movie of all time, next to Treasure Planet.

11:11 best part
I had a crush on Chel for a while and still do. She is just very beautiful, cute personality, and curvy.
I haven’t read this anywhere but for me those two guys kinda sound like Gonzalo Guerrero and Jernimo de Aguilar two spanish castaways that landed in the south of mexico. And one of them married a Mayan princess and the other one worked as a translator during the Spanish conquista (it’s said that he also stole lots of gold) and just the entire culture and even designed seems to be closer to the Mayan culture. Even the game they played against the athletes is a Mayan game
Jesus I just can't stop myself from pausing the video whenever Chel shows up
I agree, this was my childhood movie man. Damn it’s nice seeing someone else enjoy this movie as much as i did❤️
The same goes for me too as well funny enough I did heard there was a lot of controversy for this movie
This movie is just amazing. They couldn't have executed better than they did. The fact that it's about the sensitive topic of colonization, the 'discovery of the new world' in the eyes of spain (and other european countries) and still manage to pull it off perfectly is extremely impressive. It's carefully thought out. you have 2 aspects, miguel looking for adventure and tulio looking for riches. Yet they still work harmoniously together. Probably because they are 2 sides of a coin, 2 experienced con artists who form a team. The movie might show in the beginning that they think that the natives are naive for believing that they are gods. but it's clear that the chief and Chel notice from the beginning that this is far form the truth. The natives are obviously an extremely impressive nation when you look at how they live from the architecture to the utter peace and friendliness. I don't feel that it's giving of the trope of white man come and manipulate natives. Well it might have been so in the beginning. They sacrafice everything for the people at the end of the movie. Which leaves them with nothing exept for amazing memories of a golden city. Miguel is obviously the tender hearted one of the two while tulio is more realistic. But still both of them decide that giving up their dreams to help save these people is what needs to be done. I like to think that the gods were present maybe not in the bodies of our protaganist but if you look at the vulcano, the boat drifting, the fact that they survived the stone jaguar and even just pulling off the ball game, it is clear that something was a play without anyone noticing. The gods tried to save their people by sending these 2 bafoons, profesionnal con artists who can pull off an eloborate scheme like this one. I feel like the fact that they even are able to communicate with each other shows some kind of magical intervenience. Not only that but he songs are absolutely bangers. the animation just makes it feel extremely magical. Some people argue that it isn't for kids but believe me I loved it as a kid, I love it today and I'll love it in 50 years. It's just a widely accesable movie. And if you think it's too rwanchy for your kids plssss that's just ridiculous. In my eyes that a bit conservative, I turned out fine.
I do believe that there should be more movies talking from the perspective of an south american, because there aren't many but that being said I do belive that the reason this movie works so well is because you follow these 2 uncultured criminals who get to show their true colors at the end by deciding to sacrafice themself. This is a masterpiece. Thanks to those who read my ted talk.
Never clicked on a video so fast, Road to El Dorado is EVERYTHING
Yeah watched this with my nephew the other day and it definitely passes the adult test, great songs great animation and such a great story
I heard they were going make this more adult-oriented. In one cut out storyboard scene, it had Tulio and Chel during their "massage" had someone walk in, and showed Chel first, but then Tulio popped his head out from in between her thighs....
Geez, why?!?!?!?
It’s Tough To Be A god is so catchy
@@osmanyousif7849, apparently, someone forgot they were making a children's movie (Not that I would complain about that, though).
Emporers New Groove + Atlantis: The Lost Empire = this cult favorite
"BUT SHE'S REAL TO ME! " I lost it 🤣
Just realize that the gods and spirit world might actually exist in this movie. When creepy priest guy was sent down the water chasm, he popped out miles away in the jungle... but where's the gold at? It's in the spirit world
I love this film and I’m glad you finally did the film justice.
Better then any Disney movie I’ve ever watched
11:14 did it hurt to say this?
Also, this was absolutely HILARIOUS!
Altivo that hides the golden horse shoes is still one of the greatest pieces in the history of animation.
This was an AWESOME example of REALLY great voiceover work, phenomenal animation and storytelling AND writing, not to mention the cool history stuff. This was one of my favorites growing up. It reminds me of a time when the END of GREAT films (even animated kids movies) were coming QUICKLY. I may not have seen it then, but I can SEE it NOW. Kinda like the way music was in the late 90's and early 2000's with Grunge, Post Grunge, Post Hardcore, Alternative and so on. When you look at THAT era in hindsight, you can see how it was sorta the END of the "greats" and the "instant classics" "one hit wonders"... NOT to say there's ISN'T good music TODAY, but you'd REALLY have to look HARD for it I feel like. Loved the video, TRULY! Much love from Western Massachusetts USA 🇺🇲 and God bless!
I loved this film, still worrying some people cant separate fact from fiction especially in a cartoon because it was incredibly fun to watch. I loved the humor, loved the characters, loved the music, loved the animation.
The Tulio-Miguel conflict wasn’t out of nowhere. They both promised to each other to keep their hands off of Chel and go back to Spain together. Miguel keeps his promise eventhough he learns to love El Dorado and wants to stay there. He sacrifices his new found happiness and wishes for the sake of his friendship and loyalty to Tullio.
And the first thing Miguel hears from Tullio after he gets back from his conversation with Chief Tannabok is: „Forget Miguel“, and after that he sees him kissing Chel and breaking their promise.
The writing and execution is so subtle that you don’t even notice it but it’s also powerful
I remember watching this movie in 7th grade social studies 💀
Social studies? Were you skipping a lesson or your whole class just sat and watched?
You didn't mention the fact that this was a DreamWorks animated film 😁👍
Really love how you added the historical context. It would be very easy to just leave it out. Also after you brought it up....., Yeah, not everything aged well
this man takes movies and reacts/explains them as bluntly and simple as possible noice +1sub
I mean yeah I guess the El Doradoian's 'speaking English' doesn't make sense, but neither does 2 dudes from Spain. I think it's more of a case of universal linguistics where everyone speaks the same language for simplicity.
This movie will never not be one of my favorites. Was so underrated I think it’s amazing
I love this movie so much, and I love your content! Thank you for just being you and giving another reason to smile ♡
Shoutout to all the homies that know this is a reupload
You know I used to hate the opening and that made me tune out...
Years back I watched it again sat through it, and it was surprisingly good I can't believe how wrong I was
Your videos always make my day better :) I've been watching you for a while love seeing the hair progress over time tbh
Man haven't seen this movie in forever but I NEVER forgot those banging songs. Probably still one of my favorite soundtracks of all time.
5:09 LMAO THAT PAN OVER LORD FARQUAD!!
editor be like: okay how many times can i use this dancing gif
at this rate they’ll be making remakes of all these old movies and I feel like this would be a good one
El dorado is a really underrated movie. I love it up to this date.
So glad you got this back up! I only got to watching half of it!
Watched this with my one true love. Now I'm starting a journey on fighting for the people who were taken advantage of in this kids film. Our relationship was affected by systemic incompetence. I told her that I needed to devote my life in speaking on behalf of those who are manipulated by men and women portrayed in this film. I only wish to meet with her again during or after my journey.
Who? Who was taken advantage of?
Please make a tier list of movies by their horses
On the volcano note, coincidentally, when Cortés encountered the Aztecs, there was a solar eclipse, which made Aztecs believe of Cortés' supernatural background, so not quite farfetched.
And the horse has golden horseshoes at end 😂
Amazing content! Also, the memes were just the icing on the cake.
Like what Chel has
Miguel and tulio we're definitely a little fruity
I’m so glad that you got it back up! Loved this video thanks for the hard work
I freaking love your content, and ever since I first started watching your videos I always came back to your channel to enjoy your content. Keep you up the amazing work. 🙌
I'm the ancestor of these white dudes who came to make tortilla and chill

@@InnerAtanih and "jagwires" but that one is just an accent thing
Your videos are always absolute QUALITY, but I really appreciate the extra research element this one had. Thank you for enriching my knowledge of one my all time favorite movies! LOVE YOU MAN 💜
The way you say jaguar hurt my soul
did you ever watch Sinbad legend of the seven seas as a kid? i used to LOVE it - has the same animation style as El Dorado. would love a video review of it!
Me, too! I just rewatched both of those movies a few weeks ago.
I’m not justifying the inherent evils of colonialsm, but it’s significant to acknowledge that every civilization in history has been predicated off of military conquest, and that “conquering lands for monetary value” isn’t just a microcosm of the white man, but more so a microcosm of history itself.
Thank you. He often fixates derisively on white characters. He even describes them at 0:07 as two white men. Two white men from Spain named Tulio and Miguel 🙄Most mainstream media books all terrible acts in history as being inherent to while men and nazis . Nice to see someone with unbiased facts
@InnerAtanih I’m sorry I don’t get the names thing (if u don’t mind) could u maybe explain it because I’m lost lol
This movie is a perfect example of why d&d is fun
El dorado was also based on the European love of adventure and romantic notions of mysterious lands...not just gold or conquest
Have you watched DreamWorks’ movie Sinbad? I know you’ll love the goddess Eris 😉 the animation on her character alone is on a whole other level
And Michelle Pfeiffer's seductive voiced is just amazing, yet she was only in the film for about 7 minutes.
@@osmanyousif7849 and still the best character lol
lets all be real........most of us crushed on Miquel
this is my most favorite dream works movie ever its so good!
So happy with the intro! your videos just keep getting better 👏🙌
"This movie is about white people-"
Miguel and Tulio: Bruh
Right! Seven seconds in and I was like. Yes. Two WHITE men. From SPAIN. Names TULIO AND MIGUEL
@@InnerAtanih ? They are white. Dudes who are European Spanish from Spain are white people. Latin Americans are different from Spaniards.
9:04 Miguel purring was my sexual awakening and I'm forever thankful for it.
Lmfao unique
“Con-KWES-ta-dor” 😂❤️
This movie and Atlantis are criminally underrated.
The Iron Giant also
Aren't Miguel and Tulio from spain? doesnt make them better for colonizing, still funny though, love your videos!
yes they're spanish but uh.... *shrug*
Doesn't make them better for colonizing?
Wait, what were Tulio and Chel doing? I didn’t quite catch that
She was playin his dongle
Let's just say, Tulio decided Chel was not "off limits"...
When I was a kid I was stuck in the hospital for like a week and this was one of the movies they would repeatedly play through the week. I probably watched it 50 times and still love it to this day. It's also where I found my love of Elton John!
Bro that trumpet noise made me fall off my chair 6:24
