In The Road to El Dorado there is only really one inexplicable thing within the plot. Miguel and Tulio plausibly bluff their way through or slip out of most situations. However, I’d never figured out why the volcano actually stops erupting when Tulio commands it. 

The conclusion I finally came up with is that the actual gods were watching their big entrance go down, and thought “oh, this’ll be hilarious”

theres a lot of evidence throughout the movie to say that the armadillo (whose name is bibo) is a god.

• they first find him in the jungle, where an armadillo has no business being
• they find the entrance to the city, while being followed by him
• he is present when the volcano starts to erupt (previous concept art also showed him in the background actually stopping the eruption)
• miguel and tulio sucked ass at the ball game, so they used Bibo as a ball. He ricocheted himself all over the place and defied physics to get into the hoop every time
• they come up with the flood plan to stop cortez when bibo pushed a glass over in front of them

YOUR TELLING ME THEY USED GOD AS A BASKETBALL?
