" The documentary Sweatbox was filmed by Sting's wife Trudie Styler and never got an official release on a DVD extra presumably because of the horrible light the studio executives were portrayed in. The movie follows the exceptionally troubled production of Kingdom of the Sun, which was later renamed to The Emperor's New Groove.
With Styler behind the camera, the crew had unprecedented access to Disney creators, executives, artists, writers, and of course Sting, who is probably the most disturbed by the last minute calls and complete overhauls foisted by the top brass upon this movie. The documentary made its way online last night. "
Even though I did somewhat enjoy the movie Emperor's New Groove I kinda wish they would of carried on with the original story line that felt more ambitious.

Completely unaware of this schism, that's more shocking and fascinating. Yet even some early direction taken for Beauty & the Beast was quite different, too.

OP
Commercially the movie did rather poorly still it made some money but just seeing Allers version I really wanted to see that version move forward then the forced comedy feel of the one the studio went with. Allers version was more close to a retelling of the prince and the pauper story with the lama not talking. I think the studio wanted a more comerical product then going strong with an artistic one that felt more Disney like.
