By all accounts it doesn’t make sense.
David Spade’s best movie that doesn’t have Chris Farley in it.
Agreed but I consider Chris Farley to be the main character in Tommy boy and David Spade the main character in Emperor’s New Groove.
I highly recommend the documentary about the making of this film.

Same thing happened to the film Muholland Drive. It was supposed to be a tv show, and David Lynch took the footage did a couple of reshoots and made an epic movie out of it.
Now I’m feeling really uncultured for not having seen this.
