Hello everyone,

I just watched "The Little Mermaid II" video. The beginning of the tape
has lots of promos of Disney stuff.

One trailer is for "The Emperor's New Groove" an animated features due
in theatres this Fall. The Emperor is given poison (yes Disney is almost
always violent) but instead of dying, he is turned into a llama. The
llama and a peasant team up for many adventures. The promo shows an
animal (I think it is a squirrel) mouth inflating a 260, then twisting
it into a giraffe and threatening the llama with a huge pin. Of course,
the balloon is popped with a very loud explosion.

No wonder so many people are afraid of balloon twisters - I never pop a
balloon on purpose because the noise is very scary.
