I’m not sure how much additional time to capture the tone could surmount diabetes-inducing musical numbers, or costumes and set design that feel like Santa and the Ice Cream Bunny if it had an actual Hollywood budget. I remember that when I watched it after I was older, I and the other person I was watching it with both ragged on how dopey the costumes and sets looked.

Well, obviously the time they needed was to improve the costumes, the set design, and the songs themselves. By contrast, nobody complains about a gorilla mask, a demon mask, and a walrus with a chin resembling one’s butt being part of the famous cantina sequence in Star Wars Episode IV:A New Hope.
