I just want to shout out your editor; as an actor who works in the film industry but who has also been very small parts of crews over the years I am so glad to see those credits roll on the table. It's really cool you thought to include everyone's credit in some way.💚
@@jstarwars360I get choked up a bit at those scenes despite not being a parent. I’m probably a weird one out because despite our differences I have a very close relationship with my dad.
@@shootout-shinobi6672 It makes me choke up now and always did as a kid too because I had an awful father who didn't care about me so I always wished I had a relationship like Max did D:
Massive! When I heard this as a kid, I assumed these were actual pop songs or covers of some old songs I didn't know. They had some great songs in this movie.
"I'm not your little boy anymore, Dad. I've grown up, I've got my own life now!" "I know that! I just wanted to be part of it." I always tear up at that part. Just these two lines are why Goofy Movie understands parent-child relationships better than any other movie.
I love this movie a lot but it's also incredibly hard for me to watch. Going to see this movie with my father on a supervised visit was the last time that I ever saw him. He took his life two weeks later. I was 8 years old at the time. The irony is never lost on me that the last time I ever saw my father was going to see a movie about how relationships between parents and kids change as the kid grows up and I never got to experience that with my father
I love that part of it. thats what makes it a good movie, its about the human connections and just the desire to be a good father, and perhaps to be a good son.
I love the unexpected surprise of it because the guy had a different voice actor for his previous scene, and then you hear Dante’s smooth ass voice catcalling Stacy showing that dude was way more than he appears. It really gets you! I wish I had half that nerd’s rizz.
I've seen this take on social media quite a bit over the years, so not taking credit, but 100% agree: Kids watching this, "Oh c'mon Goofy, just let Max go to the party! It means so much to him!" Now as adults: "Oh c'mon, Max! Just go on the road trip with your dad! It means so much to him!"
I think it’s more nuanced than that, the main point of the movie was that father and son needed to be more open with each other. Goofy just listened to the principal and also has a toxic coworker/best friend trying to tear him and his son down. Max for his part has shut down completely as a teenager but his behavior indicates he has failed to reach Goofy before according to Cinema Therapy. It takes more effort from both individuals. It’s not like Goofy is 100% in the right just because he wants to spend time with his son even if the original audience is now grown up and can relate more.
@@aronth Not really. They are both in the right and both in the wrong at the same time. The problem is their lack of communication. They are failing to understand each other, which can be a common problem in these situations. Is max being entitled? to some extent, but that is also something that was important to him that Goofy didn't bother to even get his side of the story before he planned an elaborate trip that Max had no say in. The point is the lack of communication.
Many episodes start with Aaron and Eric rutting like full grown bull moose, Calvin walks in to ask WTF is going on. Rick is on the couch with a newspaper and tea mildly annoyed. Then guest star Reginald VelJohnson arrives to ask if the gang has reacted to all the Lethal Weapon movies.
I actually met both Bill Farmer & Jason Marsden at my local comic con just a few years ago and sometimes those voice actors can get tired of that same role and become kinda bitter, but they were both such amazingly nice people who never shy away about those roles that made so many people’s childhoods. I got them both to sign a picture of the characters and it’s now one of my most favorite possessions 💕
I think this movie is a perfect time capsule and the genius is that it’s not just a time capsule for the 90’s, it’s also a moving story about father and son and them learning to give each other a chance to grow closer. That’s why despite the 90’s theme and setting it’s still very timeless. Max learns to appreciate his father’s love and be more open to him, and Goofy learns to trust his son and be more open to him too.
Jeffrey Katzenberg felt that audiences wouldn't tolerate listening to Goofy's trademark cartoony voice for ninety minutes and, at one point, considered replacing Bill Farmer with Steve Martin. When it was decided that Farmer would stay, Katzenberg instead had Farmer record Goofy's lines in his normal speaking voice instead of his "cartoony" one. However, after a few sessions, Farmer, along with director Kevin Lima and studio head Roy E. Disney, agreed that nobody wanted to hear Goofy having any voice than the one they all knew and loved, and Farmer re-recorded his lines accordingly.
Maybe it's just me but it'd be a damn shame to not think this same goofy but lovable single father version of Goofy is also the total badass protector of the keyblade In kingdom hearts
@@dominiqueodom3099i wish they would reference goofy being a dad in kingdom hearts just cus i can imagine how it'd play out. Goofy: *sees something max might like* oh max'll love this. Sora: who's Max? Goofy: oh he's my son. Sora: ... Wait you have a kid?! Goofy: eeyup *pulls out a wallet with all the pictures of max* Sora: why didn't you ever mention that!? Goofy: you never asked.
The way my young son latched onto the 'electric chair' comment when he first saw this movie, poor kid was very concerned that if you were bad in school you'd actually get the electric chair.
This film meant so much to me growing up. I was just a couple of years younger than Max when this film came out, and had a complicated relationship with my father. We couldn't have been more different, and when I hit puberty, we really started to butt heads due to those differences. He would try to connect, but he would always do so by "dragging" me along to things he enjoyed, fishing included. He loved the outdoors, and I was about as much of a city slicker as they come. My tolerance for outdoor activities only lasted as long as the batteries in my Game Boy did. He was also highly eccentric, sometimes in a fun way, and sometimes in a "untreated mental illness" way. Everything he did I just couldn't relate to, no matter how hard I'd try. Anyway, as a kid, I'd really cling to any little thing we could enjoy together. Usually some random TV show that he would casually start watching alongside me. One of those shows happened to be "Goof Troop." No idea why that show in particular appealed to him, as I'm pretty sure that's the only cartoon he ever watched with me (and I watched a lot of them). That show always meant a lot to me because of that, so finding out there was going to be a film with the TV show characters? That was a day 1 theater watch for me. And wow, did the themes of that film hit me hard. Seeing Max be so hard on his dad, and then looking at myself and realizing I had the same tendency really changed my behavior toward my father. As much of a pain in the ass he could occasionally be, at least he was there. It made me take a step back and try to look at his positive qualities rather than his negative ones. That carried through the years. I'm past 40 now and still maintain a relatively close relationship with my father. We still have nothing in common, and he's even more eccentric now than he was then. It's still a struggle to relate, but we always have each other's backs. My dad's not exactly Goofy, and I'm not exactly Max, but this film still feels like it was made for me. I'm so glad it means something to other people as well.
thats beautiful, i hope everyone manages to spend time and gain loving connections with their parents and their children both. having multiple generations all together is even better.
"You know, maybe Max isn't all the things that you think a son should be, but he loves me." "Hey! My son respects me." "...[shrugs] Yeah..." "Check the map, Goof!" I've seen this film before, but that exchange went so hard it caught me off guard a bit. What a set of lines! The implicit question of how much PJ loves Pete when he's constantly treated like a servant and the question of how much Max respects Goofy if he's lying to him. Gosh, that exchange between friends who are completely opposite fathers was surprisingly raw.
The film was originally planned as part of Disney's short-lived "Movietoons" label created for adapting their TV shows to feature films. However, the finished film far exceeded the expectations that the execs had for it and released it under to the main "Walt Disney Pictures" label instead (though it still isn't considered part of the Disney Animated Canon). DuckTales the Movie: Treasure of the Lost Lamp ended up being the only title released under the "Movietoons" label, which was retired shortly thereafter.
Fun fact: Throughout the movie you'll see the same exact nuns from the very beginning of movie all the way to the end somewhere in the background. With them being first seen in the mall where Goofy works at, to the highway during the "open road" song, then opposum land, then the diner, to finally at Powerline's concert
Well, they were at the mall to stock up for the trip. Probably only 1 main highway out of town. Who WOULDN'T stopp at opossum land. Gotta eat somewhere. And the concert was their final destination. Either that or they're spies keeping tabs on Goofy.
I'm with Aaron on this one. This is seriously one of my favorite movies of all time and probably my favorite DISNEY movie of all time. I could probably recite it beginning to end. Also, I had a HUGE crush on Roxanne when I was a kid.
I’ve met the guy that plays PJ. That’s Rob Paulsen, he’s a really big iconic voice actor. He’s so sweet and down to earth, and when I mentioned A Goofy Movie, he was so happy. Clearly the movie means a lot to him.
I am this age when I found out Dante Basco was in this movie and now I love him even more. Definitely my favourite voice actor. I love this movie so much and this new tidbit just made it even better.
just lost my dad. watched this movie together a bunch when i was a boy, but hadn't seen it since. bigfoot dancing in the night always took him out. thanks, guys. to anyone going through the same, much love.
Yes to all of these. 3 underrated Disney movies from around the same time that get lumped together with the trash like Home on the Range and Chicken Little.
Originally scheduled for Thanksgiving 1994, the film was subsequently rescheduled for Spring 1995 due to a huge production error, namely a visible black dot appearing on the screen for three-quarters of the movie resulting from the monitor used to capture the film having a single dead pixel, meaning that three-quarters of the film had to be reshot.
Something kind of fun... Khleo Thomas, the actor who starred as Zero in the Holes movie did a live action recreation of the Powerline Eye to Eye performance.
I say the “talk to me baby” line all the time and ended up forgetting where I got it from until now. I use to associate it with Bobby saying it though.
Pete is a great character in here because he’s Goofy’s best friend/coworker but he’s super toxic and manipulative. He WANTS there to be division and hate between Goofy and Max. And he gets suspicious and angry when he sees they’ve genuinely bonded, because he himself is incapable of forming a healthy, positive and loving bond with his son and treats him like a servant. He actively tries to find a way to tear down what Goofy and Max have built and gleefully gloats to Goofy that Max lied to him, and hates when Goofy questions his worldview and perspective. There truly are people out there who want to tear down people who are happier than them or have better things than them, even if it’s something that doesn’t cost money like a good relationship or bond, because they want everybody to be as miserable as they really are and can’t stand someone being happier. And yet, Pete has a point that a parent still has to be respected by their child to make the relationship work to some extent. He’s just completely and utterly wrong otherwise.
It always makes me eternally sad that the Disney company never truly realized that with this film they had made one of the greatest movies in their entire history. They still rarely even acknowledge its greatness and just how special it was to so many of us 90's kids. An unfathomably underrated masterpiece.
I should also mention I would love to see a reaction to The Iron Giant from the guys cause that’s like one of my all time favorite movies that is not Disney related
45:25 Extremely Goofy Movie does go a bit too hard into the X-Games stuff, I think because Disney had bought ESPN and wanted to show off, and also try to be cool and radical for 2000. But like Aaron said, they DO go into their relationship still. And it’s really about Goofy understanding that he has to have a new life or change his since Max did grow up and leave to start his own life. They should have definitely leaned more into it. The scene where Goof sees that Max is gone and finds his empty room is definitely heartbreaking. I do like the ending where Max and Goofy have their resolution, it felt like a real series finale for the Goof lore.
this movie is all about a lack of communication every issue in this movie stems from groups not properly communicating with each other or misunderstanding each other it is so true to life and I love watching other reactors watch this movie because sometimes they kinda prove this point themselves- one time I remeber seeing someone say "Why she moving on from him like that? He can't help it!" and it made me realize that even the act of of Roxane saying "I'll find someone else" is miscommunication as she is saying it from a point of "Don't worry about me- I'll be fine" but from his point of view it is "she's already moving on" god this movie is so freaking good!
Fun Fact: the singing voice for Max is Aaron Lohr, who’s been in a bunch of stuff but I know him best as Portman the Bash Brother from Mighty Ducks 2 and 3
“I love when characters resolve conflict in song!” I’m holding out hope for a Steven Universe reaction someday lol. I really think they’d love it, though I don’t know how well it’d do in a poll 😞
4:32 I never realized that was Dante Basco, but it’s funny since if you look, when Max gets pulled up by the hook while dancing the school seems to be doing a production of Peter Pan, and Dante Basco had previously played Rufio in Hook.
17:23 the late great Pat Buttram in his final role! Previously the Sheriff of Nottingham in Robin Hood and Chief in The Fox and the Hound as his two most notable Disney roles. What a great. Rob Paulsen does a great imitation of him.
I just have to say... you have to consider the origins of surnames sometimes as being something like titles or identifiers. Someone named "Miller" descended from actual millers, "Fletcher" being the descendent of fletchers, or even something like Coulson being "Son of Coul". It makes you wonder then, if your surname is *BUTTRAM* ...
This movie really makes you feel like a kid. Max’s desire to impress the girl, Goofy’s desire to have a good bond with his son. Fun stuff like POWERLINE!!!
According to director Kevin Lima, Peg and Pistol from Goof Troop were originally planned to be in the film, to the point of likely being present in the first drafts according to him. However, as they began to focus more on the father/son dynamic and the contrast between Pete & PJ and Goofy & Max, the team felt their presence was unnecessary and only muddied the story, so both were cut out entirely.
- This was originally was going to be A Goof Troop Movie, but due to the Ducktales The Movie: Treasure Of The Lost Lamp not doing so well it changed - Katzenberg wanted him to drop Goofy's classic cartoonish drawl but Bill Framer (been Goofy & Pluto since the 80’s, Hop Pop in Amphibia, Tawashi in Astro Boy, Doc & others in the 7D, Foghorn, Sam, & Sylvester in Space Jam, Mr. Leghorn in Loonatics Unleashed, Secret Squirrel in Harvey Birdman: Attorney at Law, & many more) wanted to refuse it but still did it that is until Michael Eisner & Roy E. Disney hear it told them to go back to Goofy’s classic voice - This was Jason Marsden first voice role in a full film role & he also voices Gear & others (Static Shock) Haku (Spirited Away), Chase (Xiaolin Showdown), Kovu (The Lion King), Cavin (Gummi Bears), Garrett (Extreme Ghostbusters), Chester (The Fairyodd Parents), Dash (Danny Phantom), Rikochet (¡Mucha Lucha!), Billy & Red Star (Teen Titans), Firefly (The Batman), Danger Duck (Loonatics Unleashed), & many more - Bill Farmer says Goofy is classified as a “Canis Goofus” & as for his wife she does exist it’s just a huge mystery there are videos on this
This is my favourite Disney movie too!! I watched it so many times as a kid. The Powerline songs are amazing I still love listening to them. It’s a movie for kids and adults and everyone should watch it!
Also rewatching this movie and Ducktales (2017). Its really nice that Goofy in the latter had something similar happen but he and Max have an even closer relationship (at least it looks that way).
11:19 When the pandemic hit I remember seeing a meme where Mickey asked “hey where’s Donald?” And Goofy pulled out a roast duck saying “we got to eat good in quarantine, Mick. I have a family recipe passed down from Goof to Goof to Goof.” Implying the Goofs have been preying upon Donald Duck’s family for generations 😂😂
I feel like this movie was really ahead of its time in its themes. I do not think that realistic and compelling relationships between a father and his son were displayed in media that often until more recently; it is especially rare considering this is a movie for primarily children where that complicated topic gets watered down or amplified to such a degree for children to understand. It captures that relationship with depth while still being entertaining and simple enough to be understood. It even resolves that complex relationship in a very healthy way that was imo pretty unheard of at that time. Pete literally represented a lot of bad mentalities to being a dad through his ‘advice,’ and it showcased how the times really made fathers like Goofy feel that they need to force obedience. It is less common and more talked about now, but it is still a problem today. Other than all those complex themes, the movie just isn’t like a lot of Disney movies in its range of dialogue, sure, you still have singing and musical numbers, but the movie has an absurd amount of adult jokes and messed up undertones as well.
Our little friend Quartet was obsessed with this as kids. At my sister’s wedding a few years back, the other three of us blasted I2I and we all did the dance together. They recently started having Max appear at Disney World in his Powerline costume. I love it.

just lost my dad. watched this movie together a bunch when i was a boy, but hadn't seen it since. bigfoot dancing in the night always took him out. thanks, guys. to anyone going through the same, much love.
Literally all he had to do was ask to make the concert a stop along the trip. That simple lmao 🤣
They should react to Tarzan, Treasure Planet or Atlantis
Holy shit that's right, that would be amazing
Yes to all of these. 3 underrated Disney movies from around the same time that get lumped together with the trash like Home on the Range and Chicken Little.
Tarzan’s soundtrack alone makes it worth watching.
My vote’s for Treasure Planet.
Treasure Planet and Atlantis for sure, wanna see their reactions to Cookie and Mole
Originally scheduled for Thanksgiving 1994, the film was subsequently rescheduled for Spring 1995 due to a huge production error, namely a visible black dot appearing on the screen for three-quarters of the movie resulting from the monitor used to capture the film having a single dead pixel, meaning that three-quarters of the film had to be reshot.
So glad they fixed it and didn't just toss it.
Something kind of fun... Khleo Thomas, the actor who starred as Zero in the Holes movie did a live action recreation of the Powerline Eye to Eye performance.
I say the “talk to me baby” line all the time and ended up forgetting where I got it from until now. I use to associate it with Bobby saying it though.
God, this movie aged like fine wine. It holds up.
Pete is a great character in here because he’s Goofy’s best friend/coworker but he’s super toxic and manipulative. He WANTS there to be division and hate between Goofy and Max. And he gets suspicious and angry when he sees they’ve genuinely bonded, because he himself is incapable of forming a healthy, positive and loving bond with his son and treats him like a servant. He actively tries to find a way to tear down what Goofy and Max have built and gleefully gloats to Goofy that Max lied to him, and hates when Goofy questions his worldview and perspective. There truly are people out there who want to tear down people who are happier than them or have better things than them, even if it’s something that doesn’t cost money like a good relationship or bond, because they want everybody to be as miserable as they really are and can’t stand someone being happier.
And yet, Pete has a point that a parent still has to be respected by their child to make the relationship work to some extent. He’s just completely and utterly wrong otherwise.
Both goofy movies are timeless classics
It always makes me eternally sad that the Disney company never truly realized that with this film they had made one of the greatest movies in their entire history. They still rarely even acknowledge its greatness and just how special it was to so many of us 90's kids. An unfathomably underrated masterpiece.
Also not having Max be in more Mickey/Goofy related stuff is a shame, let alone they completely dropped Roxanne as a character.
I absolutely love how horrifying they made the Goofy chuckle with the lightning strike behind him 😂
This is one of the most underrated Disney movies of my childhood, and one of my favorites.
For years, when my family left to go on vacation, we'd say "goodbye house, goodbye mailbox, goodbye pile of broken wood!" 😂
I've seen this movie a million times and I've never noticed the nuns being everywhere that Goofy and Max were throughout the journey. 🤣
I love A goofy movie it’s one of the best Disney movies and one of the most underrated movies
Max was definitely one of my movie crushes as a kid 😂
I should also mention I would love to see a reaction to The Iron Giant from the guys cause that’s like one of my all time favorite movies that is not Disney related
Man, was NOT expecting this one, but happy to see it. Love this movie.
38:54-39:04 God, that killed me. Good way to start this morning.
45:25 Extremely Goofy Movie does go a bit too hard into the X-Games stuff, I think because Disney had bought ESPN and wanted to show off, and also try to be cool and radical for 2000. But like Aaron said, they DO go into their relationship still. And it’s really about Goofy understanding that he has to have a new life or change his since Max did grow up and leave to start his own life. They should have definitely leaned more into it.
The scene where Goof sees that Max is gone and finds his empty room is definitely heartbreaking. I do like the ending where Max and Goofy have their resolution, it felt like a real series finale for the Goof lore.
this movie is all about a lack of communication
every issue in this movie stems from groups not properly communicating with each other or misunderstanding each other
it is so true to life and I love watching other reactors watch this movie because sometimes they kinda prove this point themselves- one time I remeber seeing someone say "Why she moving on from him like that? He can't help it!" and it made me realize that even the act of of Roxane saying "I'll find someone else" is miscommunication as she is saying it from a point of "Don't worry about me- I'll be fine" but from his point of view it is "she's already moving on"
god this movie is so freaking good!
Fun Fact: the singing voice for Max is Aaron Lohr, who’s been in a bunch of stuff but I know him best as Portman the Bash Brother from Mighty Ducks 2 and 3
Wait he's Portman? 😳
I love that Aaron and Eric are dueling like two bulls over Disney movies 😂😂
“I love when characters resolve conflict in song!” I’m holding out hope for a Steven Universe reaction someday lol. I really think they’d love it, though I don’t know how well it’d do in a poll 😞
why would blind wave watch such mid? they've got plenty of other actually good shows and movies to watch
@@dylanverse8048 yeah more mcu/sw slop
4:32 I never realized that was Dante Basco, but it’s funny since if you look, when Max gets pulled up by the hook while dancing the school seems to be doing a production of Peter Pan, and Dante Basco had previously played Rufio in Hook.
I have always loved Max and Goofy ❤ This movie is a gem!
‘Stand Out’ and ‘I2I’ have been in my regular iPod rotation for years.
“AH-HYUCK!”
17:23 the late great Pat Buttram in his final role! Previously the Sheriff of Nottingham in Robin Hood and Chief in The Fox and the Hound as his two most notable Disney roles. What a great. Rob Paulsen does a great imitation of him.
Don't forget Mr. Haney on Green Acres!
I just have to say... you have to consider the origins of surnames sometimes as being something like titles or identifiers. Someone named "Miller" descended from actual millers, "Fletcher" being the descendent of fletchers, or even something like Coulson being "Son of Coul". It makes you wonder then, if your surname is *BUTTRAM* ...
@@jasonstrickland9245 I didn’t forget, I was talking about his two most notable Disney roles.
This movie really makes you feel like a kid. Max’s desire to impress the girl, Goofy’s desire to have a good bond with his son. Fun stuff like POWERLINE!!!
According to director Kevin Lima, Peg and Pistol from Goof Troop were originally planned to be in the film, to the point of likely being present in the first drafts according to him. However, as they began to focus more on the father/son dynamic and the contrast between Pete & PJ and Goofy & Max, the team felt their presence was unnecessary and only muddied the story, so both were cut out entirely.
An Extremely Goofy movie is my favorite of the two, and has a lot of heart. Would love to see Blindwave react to it!
Yes!! 1st one is definitely peak but the 2nd movie is just as cherished and loved. I hope they watch it too!!
One of my all time favorites! Always sing the songs along in this film!
35:46 Ah man, I2I is iconic
- This was originally was going to be A Goof Troop Movie, but due to the Ducktales The Movie: Treasure Of The Lost Lamp not doing so well it changed
- Katzenberg wanted him to drop Goofy's classic cartoonish drawl but Bill Framer (been Goofy & Pluto since the 80’s, Hop Pop in Amphibia, Tawashi in Astro Boy, Doc & others in the 7D, Foghorn, Sam, & Sylvester in Space Jam, Mr. Leghorn in Loonatics Unleashed, Secret Squirrel in Harvey Birdman: Attorney at Law, & many more) wanted to refuse it but still did it that is until Michael Eisner & Roy E. Disney hear it told them to go back to Goofy’s classic voice
- This was Jason Marsden first voice role in a full film role & he also voices Gear & others (Static Shock) Haku (Spirited Away), Chase (Xiaolin Showdown), Kovu (The Lion King), Cavin (Gummi Bears), Garrett (Extreme Ghostbusters), Chester (The Fairyodd Parents), Dash (Danny Phantom), Rikochet (¡Mucha Lucha!), Billy & Red Star (Teen Titans), Firefly (The Batman), Danger Duck (Loonatics Unleashed), & many more
- Bill Farmer says Goofy is classified as a “Canis Goofus” & as for his wife she does exist it’s just a huge mystery there are videos on this
I love that you can really tell Aaron definitely watches this with his kids all the time.
we have R&B singer Tevin Campbell to thank for giving us the gift of Powerline. 🎶🎵🕺🏾🎤
I remember getting this movie (on VHS) for christmas as a kid and probably watching it from 7am to 9pm that day.
I wore that VHS out.
Ah yes, the movie that taught us all that it's okay...
To be a little Goofy.
IF WE LISTEN TO EACH OTHERS HEART!!
WE'LL FIND WE'RE NEVER TOO FAR APART
AND MAYBE LOVE IS THE REASON WHY
This is my favourite Disney movie too!! I watched it so many times as a kid. The Powerline songs are amazing I still love listening to them. It’s a movie for kids and adults and everyone should watch it!
Now for an Xtremely goofy movie 🍿
The way I can recite this movie word for word. It's so damn good!
You guys should definitely watch The Extremely Goofy movie.
27:27 correction that's new Orleans square inside Disneyland
Aaron singing along to i 2 i is everything. 😅
Tevin Campbell may have cemented his legacy with R&B but with this he cemented his place in history!!!!!
0:03
"I'll show you who's the boss of this -gym- reaction channel!"
Also rewatching this movie and Ducktales (2017). Its really nice that Goofy in the latter had something similar happen but he and Max have an even closer relationship (at least it looks that way).
“ Yo Stacey‼️…Talk To Me Talk To Me… Talk To Me Babeyeee‼️😂🤣🤓 Gets Me Every Time🍿💻👏🏾💯 4:32
I may be biased because I was raised by my dad, but this is without a doubt the best Disney movie AND the best father/son movie ever made. Full stop.
This has always been my favorite Disney movie!
A Goofy Movie truly is our generation's Grease!!!!
11:19
When the pandemic hit I remember seeing a meme where Mickey asked “hey where’s Donald?” And Goofy pulled out a roast duck saying “we got to eat good in quarantine, Mick. I have a family recipe passed down from Goof to Goof to Goof.”
Implying the Goofs have been preying upon Donald Duck’s family for generations 😂😂
Didn’t realize I would get a show before the show with that skit in the beginning, but I’m not complaining!😂
i love most disney movies but this one take the place as my number one so many good memories from my childhood to this one and the goof troops series
Its insane how funny and great this movie still is as a 34 year old man haha
That intro was cinema
Classic
Holy crap I just put this on the other day for background noise and ended up sitting down and watching it all with my daughter.
This movie is my childhood.
I didn’t expect this reaction this morning…perfect👌🏽
I feel like this movie was really ahead of its time in its themes.
I do not think that realistic and compelling relationships between a father and his son were displayed in media that often until more recently; it is especially rare considering this is a movie for primarily children where that complicated topic gets watered down or amplified to such a degree for children to understand. It captures that relationship with depth while still being entertaining and simple enough to be understood. It even resolves that complex relationship in a very healthy way that was imo pretty unheard of at that time. Pete literally represented a lot of bad mentalities to being a dad through his ‘advice,’ and it showcased how the times really made fathers like Goofy feel that they need to force obedience.
It is less common and more talked about now, but it is still a problem today.
Other than all those complex themes, the movie just isn’t like a lot of Disney movies in its range of dialogue, sure, you still have singing and musical numbers, but the movie has an absurd amount of adult jokes and messed up undertones as well.
It's a testament that this film is SO QUOTABLE
Oh geez, the nightmare scene in the beginning gave me consistent nightmares as a kid about waking up with teeth that would not stop growing.
My favorite Disney film of all time for sure. I watched this non stop as a kid and still quote it randomly.
Yall watching the second one? That movie goes pretty hard too. Great reaction!
Max and Roxanne are one of the most adorkably cute couples I have ever seen.
i hope they do an extremely goofy movie, love both of them so much
Same. I feel like, as much as I love the original, An Extremely Goofy Movie is extremely underrated.
Same here too
Man, I love this movie, I used to watch it like all the time!!!!!
This is still one of my top 3 Disney movies
I'm a simple man, I see A Goofy Movie I'm gonna click immediately and watch. This movie hits different after losing my dad 8 years ago.
Extremely Goofy Movie is worth it for Sylvia and Goofy. Also 70’s dancing Goofy. That scene is better than it needs to be lol.
Our little friend Quartet was obsessed with this as kids. At my sister’s wedding a few years back, the other three of us blasted I2I and we all did the dance together.
They recently started having Max appear at Disney World in his Powerline costume. I love it.
