The theory can be applied to any genre of film
The guy whose theory this is says that Hollywood 60% of the time is telling the stories of about 8 or 9 religious/mythological figures over and over again and all they do is tweak the setting and the genre just enough so that you don't notice unless you've been handed the key to unlock it.

So yes, kids movies too like the Road to El Dorado, can contain these religio-mythic retellings. But they don't do it with every film. They don't make every film and it seems to be mainly the work of certain studios, such as Warner Brothers, Legendary Pictures and those affiliated with them.

I haven't seen it
But by all means if you can get hold of a copy, you can see if it matches the formula.
