    In 1995, Disney released "A Goofy Movie" which followed the character Goofy as he embarks on a cross-country road trip with his son, Max. Along the way, they encounter various challenges and adventures, including a run-in with Bigfoot.
    This vacation is Max's worst nightmare, and it couldn't have happened at a worse time- his original plan was to escort his dream date Roxanne to her friend Stacey's end-of-year-party to see a Powerline concert in Los Angeles.
    The film was a minor box office success and praised for its heartwarming father-son story and catchy soundtrack including the Powerline songs i2i and Stand Out. It also spawned a sequel, "An Extremely Goofy Movie," in 2000. To this day, "A Goofy Movie" remains a beloved classic among Disney fans.
    The behind the scenes drama at Disney involving Katzenberg, Eisner and Wells caused some release problems but A Goofy Movie quickly found an audience on it's way to becoming a true Disney classic.

    I was listening to "Eye to Eye" and "Stand Out" just today, in fact, all these years later. The dynamic between Max and Goofy resonated with me then, when I was in junior high, as it does now as an adult. These days, I spend a lot of time with my dad since I'm not going to have him forever, you know? This movie also just encapsulates the 90's for me, a decade I hold in high regard.

    When Rob Paulsen was interviewing Jason Marsden on his podcast: Marsden used some dialogue Pete and Goofy said during the hot tub scene to bounce off his own feelings about parenthood; that one of the ultimate goals of fatherhood is to have a child who both loves and respects you. In the movie, Max and PJ regard their fathers with one of these qualities but not the other and that's a major source of friction in the relationships they have with them.

      @@DuskusCB I'd argue it's a mix of both. If a child does not have any sense of fear of being disapproved by his or her parents, then it's hard to build the necessary respect to have a functioning parent-child relationship. That said, Pete in the movie does not have a balanced approach, thus making it more about fear than genuine respect. Goofy on the other hand gets zero respect from Max but is more loved as a result. Neither are really perfect parents, but it's definitely easier to sympathize with Goofy than with Pete, even though Pete does have a point.
      In the end Max and Goofy reconcile after talking things out and Max finally sees his father with genuine respect by absorbing the things he was taught during the course of the story. It's why the story works so well. Max actually has to grow by learning to respect his father while Goofy has to work on becoming a more balanced in his parenting.

    One reason why this movie became a huge cult classic is that you completely understood the perspectives of Max and Goofy and take either side. Yet you could also recognize both of them needed to be much better at communicating. It’s also one of the Disney movies that doesn’t have a villain that works. It’s just a great portrayal of a father-son relationship.

    My parents got the movie for me on VHS for my birthday. I was a big fan of Goofy already but somehow had never heard of it until that moment. When I came down with the flu a few weeks later, I decided to watch this movie to pass the time, and it transformed my life. I think I ended up watching that VHS over 200 times before it wore out, and after that I had the entire thing memorized, songs included. I even developed the ability to talk in Goofy's voice, something that I can still do today. It was also helpful in repairing my relationship with my father, who also had a penchant for stuffing the family into a car and taking long road trips.

    I love the contrast between goofy and Max’s relationship and pete and pj’s. While max will always be frustrated by goofy’s antics and clumsiness the two of them love each other and will always be close. On the other hand Pete and pj’s relationship is built on Pete bullying and intimidating pj. My guess is as soon as pj graduates college, starts a career and gets married Pete will probably only see him on the holidays at best.

    Bill Farmer's performance in this movie is the shining example I always use when I see Hollywood stunt cast in place of an established voice actor for an existing character.

Trust a voice actor to ACT with their VOICE.
    Lookin' at you, Mario.
    Also: Katzenberg originally wanted Steve Martin as Goofy before going back to Farmer, to remind you how tone-deaf he was.

    We have to thank Katzenberg for so much of Disney’s critical success in animation during the 90s. He’s also the guy who personally went behind Eisner’s back, and encouraged the development and re-pitching of “Gargoyles” to Eisner with some more depth and mature drama.
    There’s a reason Dreamworks went on to have a number of successes, and the reason Disney animation tanked after the in-fighting for recognition between Eisner, Katzenberg, and Roy Disney.

We'd stay up late playing Tekken 3 and watching Goofy Movie, as well as other timeless classics like Clerks and blurry channels 98/99.

At least the crabs were tasty. So happy my dad is retiring in 2 years.
    Recently, my 2 year old randomly discovered this movie on Disney plus, and it's been a reminder that I need to bond with her and do my best for her and her little brother. I'm so thankful my Dad did what he could with what he had. I can't think of any Disney that made me appreciate my family more than this one has, especially recently.

    This year (2022), there was a special appearance of Max as Powerline before the parade each night of the special ticketed event, Mickey's Not So Scary Halloween Party at Walt Disney World. Max is a rare character that isn't seen in the parks very often, let alone in his Powerline costume, so many people were very excited by this addition.

      Holy cow, really?! We were at the Parks during the 2022 Halloween season, but decided not to take our kids to the ticketed event. As big fans of A Goofy Movie, we would have dealt with taking a toddler out after bedtime to see Max as Powerline! That's awesome.

    It's amusing how meddlesome executives can get with legacy characters like Goofy. Katzenberg wanting to drop the "goofy" voice would repeat itself decades later when some at the studio wanted to drop the "duck" voice from Donald for the DuckTales reboot. And just as it did with Goofy, it had to go all the way up to the top executive at the company before sanity was restored and Donald Duck was allowed to just be Donald Duck as we all knew and loved him.

    I grew up watching this movie in preschool, and watching it as a young adult, I have to say it aged a whole lot better than many people in the 90s expected it to. It helped me relate to both Max and Goofy at the same time. My favorite animated film of all time.

A classic fun romp through the possibility of music and fun times had with family. I feel this movie even better resembles my life as a teen looking back on it now as an adult. And yes, Powerline was pretty awesome, I remember dancing along to the songs in front of the couch.

Other movies can be good and fun to watch, but this is the movie that connects with people in a way that most other movies can't and it probably helped save some father/son relationships out there too.

    My five year old loves this movie. We watch it everyday multiple times a day. We also got shirts for Christmas mine has Goofy on it saying Goofy Dad and his has Max says Goofy Son. I took pictures of us wearing it. But yeah I use to watch it all the time when it first came out. And it's just crazy my five year old watched it all the time I even bought a shirt that has the scene from Goofy sticking through the roof saying Goofiest Dad. But yeah he also carries a stuff Goofy. I even showed the director the pictures and told him on Twitter. He actually replied he seems like a really nice guy.

    I worked at a movie theater in the center of Boston in 1995, and The Goofy Movie just appeared quietly in our smallest house one day with no advertising, no Disney promotional fanfare, no heads-up. Everyone at the theater loved it and re-watched it over and over. We were all mystified that it hadn't been heavily promoted, and now I know why.

    Ty for letting me suggest topics. I remember you did videos about Batman: TAS and Mask of The Phantasm. Was wondering if I could suggest a video based on Superman: The Animated Series and also one about the phenomenon called Pokemon and how it changed Kids’ WB! I think those would be awesome and ty again. Keep up the awesome work and this video and the James Bond Jr. one are two of my favorites of 2022!

    Yes. Everything you said here were my feelings exactly. I connected with Max when I first saw it and now as a father my heart strings are pulled watching Goofy just try to have some fun with his kid even though he finds him a huge loser. I loved this movie from day one and pretty sure I did not see in theaters but rented it when I was probably in middle school (96-98) and that's why I connected with Max's need to be popular and get the girl. Bought the DVD, Own it digitally now and watch it probably once a year. I loved how it basically was a kid's version of Vacation as well right down to the original cover art.

"A Goofy Movie" doesn't even have a villain per se, the closest thing to an antagonist in the movie is Principal Mazur, and he doesn't have a song.
