2010 ATLFF Now Accepting Submissions Last Deadline: Extended - Friday, December 18 An Academy Award qualifying festival for the Best Live Action Narrative Short and Best Animated Short categories, the 2010 Atlanta Film Festival (April 15-23) is now accepting entries.

Extended Deadline - December 18 Pictured: Walt Goggins, Scott Teems and Ray McKinnon of 2009 Grand Jury Prize Winner That Evening Sun. Comcast On Demand - ATL365 Recommends The Emperor's New Groove 
THE EMPEROR'S NEW GROOVE is an odd film in the Disney canon. Abusrdist in tone, it aligns more with the Looney Tunes and the Warner Bros. cartoons of the 1990s such as the ANIMANIACS and FREAKAZOID than BEAUTY AND THE BEAST or MULAN. It's also the odd Disney film because it lampoons so many classic Disney cliches. Standouts in the voice department are Patrick Warburton as Kronk and the late Eartha Kitt as Yzma. And yes that is Tom Jones singing the opening song.
