During that conversation it came to light that I had not yet seen the 2000’s animated insanity, The Emperor’s New Groove.

He is incredibly divisive. One group of people will like him for his comedy but not his dramatic roles, and the other group will like him and hate him for exactly the opposite reasons. He truly seems to be an actor who can't quite break this cycle.
