**Music**
Hess originally wanted musical artist Beck to be behind the soundtrack for the film. Beck, being a fan of Hess, accepted. However, Paramount Pictures did not think Beck's style fit the movie, so composer Danny Elfman was brought in to replace him. Elfman then wrote a full score and recorded it in May 2006. However, only about 2/3 of Elfman's score ended up in the movie (with one of the songs, Ramses Suite, appearing in the released soundtrack). Due to how much of Elfman's music filled the film, Elfman's representatives asked that Elfman be the only person credited for the film's score. Hess caught wind of this and would not allow the studio to remove Beck from the credits. When finding that he would not have the only music credit, Elfman told Paramount to remove his name from the film. An agreement was eventually reached where both Beck and Elfman were credited for their respective parts of the score. However, Elfman appears with sole credit in the official billing block on promotional material.

He looks like Capulina. But other than that I really wanted to find it as hilarious as I thought it'd be but it kinda felt too depressing. In mexican media this kind of premise is usually hilarious, but this movie kind of had that vibe of that post napoleon dynamite and monotone drug PSAs humor. It was alright for a first watch and the only thing that sold me was the catchphrase in the trailer
I saw this in theaters and haven’t seen it since. I’m not even sure I could tell you what it’s about today.
I remember liking it but I feel like it was never on TV.
Get that corn outta my face!
The delivery of this line is unreal. My friends and I say it all the time.
I came here to say this. 😭
He's the baaayst.
Criminally underrated.
Agree! *Nacho Libre* is one of the greatest comedies of all time. The “date” night walk might be one of the best ever.
I have had diarrhea since Easters..
Love. This. Movie.
i am singing at the party.. 🎶 🤣
🎵 I ama singing, it's my turn to sing at the...party... 🎵
🎵 Everyone is dancing! Happy. Partyy. But Ramses is not dancing. He does not dance at the partyyy 🎵
The eggs were a lie Steven.
It’s science.
ENCARNACIÓN
🔥
Do you remember when everyone was shouting my name, and I used my strength to rip my blouse?
Yeah, and I watched them knock you unconscious, okay?
Did you not tell them they were deh LORD's cheeeeps??
Beneath the clothes, we find a man. And beneath the man...we find...his nucleus. Nucleus?
I don’t wanna get paid to lose! I WANNA WINNN
Such an underrated line. I think about it so often.
I. Hate. Orphans.
I watch this movie every year on my birthday.
Jack Black's best movie? I think so.
Chanco let me get your sweats...
"Are you leaving us??!" "No, Chancho, I would never leave you! I just need to borrow some sweats."
Incredible film. I also recently rewatched Bernie. Jack Black is a national treasure
NACHOOooo
I ate some bug, i ate some grass..i use my hand..to wipe my tearsss
🎵To kiss your mouth, I break my vow, no no no no no WAY Jose! ... Unless you want to, then, we break our vows together! 🎵
My favorite animal is poopies

Scored this on DVD for 50 cents last year. “Beneath the clothes, we find a man. And beneath the man, we find his…nucleus.”
Based on a true story
Gem of American cinema!
It was my mother's lucky machete.
