- Executive Meddling: The film began life as a much more standard Disney flick, Kingdom of the Sun. It managed to recover, proving that this trope isn't always a bad thing. Though we did lose a rockin' Villain Song in the process so you got your good and your bad.
- On his DVD commentary, director Mark Dindal grumbles about a minor example, claiming an executive at Disney forced him to include a particular The Wizard of Oz Shout Out.
- Also, Composer Meddling: Sting is an environmentalist, and complained about Kuzco building a mansion on the hills on the original ending, causing it to be replaced by a hut.
- Hey Its That Voice: Patrick Warburton, Eartha Kitt, John Goodman, David Spade and Sting.
- Hello? Tom Jones anyone?
- Porky Pig is Bucky the Squirrel.
- The old guy who gets chucked out a window in the beginning is Piglet.
- Pacha is Sulley.
- In the Japanese dubbed version:
- Kuzko is Light Yagami in the live-action movies
- Pacha is Dudley
- Yzma is Magno Vivan
- Kronk is Mashmyre Cello (And playing ANOTHER incompetent villain to boot)
- What Could Have Been: In the original Kingdom of the Sun, Pacha would've sounded like Lightning McQueen; ANOTHER Pixar protagonist!!
- That's because both original!Pacha and Lightning are voiced by Owen Wilson.
- Marc Shaiman originally scored the film but had his work rejected after a test screening and was replaced by John Debney. Shaiman's work can be heard in The Sweatbox (the making-of documentary on the film and its Troubled Production). He describes his take as having too much "Mickey-Mousing".
