About this Episode

Celebrating the 20th anniversary of the 1995 animated film, the hosts dive into the father-son dynamic of A Goofy Movie. They discuss the film's production, voice cast members like Bill Farmer and Jason Marsden, and share personal memories of watching it in theaters. The conversation then transitions to the direct-to-video sequel, An Extremely Goofy Movie, comparing the college-aged story and skating competition plot to the original road trip narrative.

Beyond good, beyond evil, beyond your wildest

imagination. in an outrageous, full -length,

animated feature. Walt spends some real quality

Could you back up a bit, Mr. Foot? You're out

of focus. This spring, one of Disney's favorite

classic characters lands at theaters in the most

hilarious and hippest animated musical comedy

ever. A little smug kid. A goofy movie. Hello

and welcome to the 62nd episode of Tooncast Beyond

brought to you by the GeekCast for your network.

I am your host TFGO and Mike and joining me today

is Dog Able from Talking About My Generation.

Hello sir. Hello. And I did not lie to you folks.

We are going to get to what I said was going

to be at the Episode 61 I said that TMNT 2003

season 1 was going to be the next episode but

We're going to be doing that in January because

we needed to get this episode out before the

end of this year because This year marks the

20th anniversary of a goofy movie Christ I cannot

believe it's been 20 years since I've seen this

movie It's yeah, I don't like seriously folks

the last time I remember watching this was like

1997 1998 so Yeah, I actually went and saw this

movie in the theaters at they now defunct Santee

Village 8 it's been torn down leveled and they

put a they put a And I remember going to see

it I'm going to tell everybody this as a warning

if there are any kids under the age You know

like 18 ish if you're a senior in high school

Do not date a freshman and here is why Try and

see movies shit like a doofy movie is the only

choices that you have because she's not 17. Oh

dang. Yes Didn't you know this in high school

you're only supposed to date one class below

what you are I was an idiot I'm sorry or or or

in the same class that you are I was an idiot,

you know There's only at this point in my life.

There's only one other woman I will ever sit

through Titanic with and that's my current girlfriend

Jennifer in high school I took a girl I was interested

in It was one of those weird high school, and

I know we're completely off of a goofy movie

at this point, but it is one of those weird high

school relation quote -unquote relationships.

This is obviously before Facebook, before relationship

statuses and blabbity -blah -blah -blah. Oh my

god, I couldn't even imagine going through high

school today. Anyway, that's the whole other

story. Okay, so she wanted to see Titanic, and

I'm like, okay, cool. And yeah, at this point

in my life at 35, nearly 36 years old, there's

only one other woman I would ever sit through

three hours in a theater with for that, oh my

God, that movie's so long. Anyway, so a goofy

movie. Bill Farmer, Jason Marsden, Jim Cummings.

We're gonna get to all that stuff here in a bit,

but I remember bits and pieces of Goof Troop.

I remember that Goof Troop was part of Disney

afternoon it was taking the classic character

and putting him in a situation that kind of thing

and all this stuff and and everything else and

then a Goofy movie was essentially what to Disney

at the time as to what Mask of the Phantasm was

to Batman at the time Mean this was there. Oh

my god. We're putting goofy on the big screen

for the first time in a lot You know his solo

solo movie forget don't get me Yeah, we all know

we all know because we've all seen Roger Rabbit.

You know everybody loves goofy Nobody loves the

news we all know that there were goofy cartoons

that aired not aired But there were goofy cartoons

that were shown in the theaters in the olden

days and everything else, but this was Goofy's

feature film debut. Yeah, and it was awesome

So setting the stage here for a goofy movie the

It was directed by Kevin Lima The story and screenplay

and all that stuff was done by Jim Magoon Chris

Matheson and Brian pin and tall as I already

said starring Bill Farmer Jason Mars than the

various other people The music was done by Carter

Burwell and Don Davis I assume that is the instrumental

stuff not the actual singing stuff the It doesn't

give the budget for the movie, but The box office

according to this is thirty five point three

million so I have no idea what it cost them to

make the movie, but Had to have been fairly successful.

Well, they got a sequel out of it So it can't

have been too bad and not a lot of people like

the sequel though not a lot there I was one of

the few I guess Yeah, so am I but I'm just saying

yeah So the film itself for a goofy movie acts

as a sequel to the TV series goof troop film

revolves around father and son relationship between

Goofy and Max as Goofy believes that he is losing

Max and the film was dedicated to Pat Butterm

who died during production and of course the

direct -to -video sequel which we'll talk about

later extremely Goofy movie I Goofy is one of

those dads who is the biggest worry wart in in

in history Yep, just just sitting there looking

at everything going. Oh gosh You know, I I'm

sorry. I cannot do it anywhere near as good as

Bill Farmer, but The funny thing is I I wanted

to have it done before this but I just couldn't

because we're recording this during the holiday

season of 2015 It'll actually be out. Well, like

I said before actually we'll probably release

it December 23rd. I had tweeted both to Bill

Farmer at Goofy Bill and Jason Marsden at Jason

Marsden on Twitter. I said, I would love to get

you both on an interview for Gecast Radio blah

blah blah blah blah to celebrate 20 years. Bill

Farmer replied with information to get in contact

with his agent and it'll all be set up so So

in 2016 at some point in the early months of

2016 you're gonna hear goofy bill Bill Farmer

You know on Tooncast beyond at some point With

a goofy movie. I just watched this right before

we recorded it I have not seen it and like like

I said, it was last time I saw this film was

97 98 somewhere around so I have not seen it

in almost 16 17 years something like that and

The damn film made me cry I Don't know what it

I don't know what it is about a goofy movie that

just throughout The film and the way the plot

is and the way it's it's Presented to us the

whole father -son relationship thing the whole

thing Probably midway to the end probably the

point where max changes the map to the end of

the movie Just I just couldn't stop tearing up

at different points in the thing Well, we finally

got a chance to see goofy being something other

than goofy himself. Yeah Like the pissed -off

parent I was going whoa Where did that come from?

Yeah. Yeah, that was a little crazy there. And

so a goofy movie. What happens is Max is trying

to impress this girl Roxanne. And he, his favorite

musical rock star, whatever, is Powerline. Now

see originally and because I haven't seen this

in so long. I didn't forget about power line

I Forgot that power line was just one like I

thought it was a whole group I didn't realize

it was just one guy. I mean sure he's got other

musicians there he's got the the fat lady singing

and all that stuff and whatever else but I Could

have sworn it was a whole group. Not just one

guy so Max puts on this whole thing with his

friends PJ and and and and Bobby and and We'll

talk about PJ and Bobby a bit later considering

I Can't ever since I watched this film folks

a few days ago before recording this I can't

stop saying it's a lazy leaning tower of cheese

I think that was the best quote from that film.

Some smokage. I mean, he had a lot of good lines.

We'll talk about that a bit. So the film sets

up, Max wants to impress this girl, Roxanne,

and he does this by basically embodying the power

line character. And they have him swinging all

over the auditorium place there. They basically...

uh send the principal below the stage through

the trap door kind of thing and it ends in um

in the principal catching them all and they're

all in trouble and uh uh turns out that roxanne

liked uh uh goofy or liked max you know ever

since his first hyuck and i'm only going to call

it a hyuck because i can't do it at all like

i'm so not yeah Mean I used to be able to do

Donald I used to I don't even know if I can do

it anymore No, I can't it's my nose is just no

it's not gonna work I used to be you know as

a teenager 15 16 17 right around I used to be

able to do a somewhat decent Donald, but I know

I I can't do goofy justice and so The principal

calls goofy at work and goofy works for this

department store where also Pete works and they

try to get kids to smile for Photos that he works

in the folder department or part of his job is

he works in the photo department The principal

calls him and says oh mr. Goof your son Oh no,

is he hurt? No, Mr. Goof, he's in trouble. And

he goes through this, and the principal is voiced

by Wallace friggin' Sean. Yeah, my wife looked

at that and she goes, why is Rex voicing the

principal? He is such a good villain. He actually

voices the... Don't know if you've I assume you've

seen this episode the the mirror episode of 7d

No, not yet. They know this is from season one.

This is from this has already been out there

was a Magic mirror episode where Queen delightful

was gonna steal the Whoopi Goldberg voiced magic

mirror from Queen delightful Where? Ildy was

gonna steal it from Queen delightful and they

go to basically replace it to pull a switch.

Well, the mirror that they get from the mirror

that Grimm, voiced by Jess Arnell, gets from

the mirror store is a defunct mirror, and it's

a green -faced mirror, and it's voiced by Walsh.

Oh, God. It's hilarious. It's awesome. uh...

but anyway so we got wallace on as the principal

and he basically tells tells goofy that max is

gonna you know he incited a riot he's he's gone

all gangsta and this that the other thing and

everything else and he's gonna end up in the

electric chair and this basically just since

goofy over the edge he doesn't want his son to

be in the electric chair he wants you know so

he schedules this vacation that's going to take

place during the time let's see the one and i'm

really not i really have no nitpicks about this

plot folks but i do have to nitpick this do they

actively say that it's going to be summer vacation

at all i assume this is just a day like Just

assume like this is a like a Friday or something

Well, they they did hint at the very beginning

that this is like the last day of school because

there's they're saying that like everybody's

gonna be leaving They're not gonna have to do

math again until September and all that so I

was kind of like, okay It's last day of school

Okay, so When max gets home goofy's packing the

car up He's gonna take his son fishing and camping

and all that stuff and he's like, oh we're gonna

drive to White Plains Idaho or White Plains,

Iowa or whatever the hell I don't even know what

the hell he says Lake Destiny, Idaho. That's

what it is. Thank you And he's like but dad that's

gonna take three months or three weeks or whatever.

He's like, that's okay, you know but max has

this thing where uh he's gonna he wants to go

to stacy's party because stacy is going to broadcast

the pay -per -view uh power line concert so they

end up on this road trip and max is obviously

not too thrilled about this and goofy's trying

his best and as the trip goes on and on and on

max gets more angry and more angry and more angry

and then he gets the the the notion of changing

the map Now during this road trip they end up

running into Pete and PJ Several times well the

first time they run into them. It's PJ Pete is

unloading is his RV and this is the Like seriously

cousin Eddie you should really be jealous of

this cuz holy crap. Yeah this RV has every like

I know Pete's supposed to be a villain, but Jesus

Christ, how did he get enough money to, oh my

God, that RV looks so expensive. Well, and they

work in a department store taking pictures of

kids. How the fuck do you make that much money?

I'm sorry. Well, Pete's a swindler, so I mean,

he'll, you know, swindle you out of anything.

So they run into Pete and PJ several different

times the first time was with the RV the next

times at a hotel or motel and We get to a point

in the movie where Max decides to change the

map because he wants his dad to head to LA instead

of Lake Destiny, Idaho and Goofy gets to a point

where he's gonna trust Max and whatever else

and the relationship kind of breaks down and

then gets repaired fairly quickly when Max comes

clean about impressing Roxanne and whatever else

and Goofy's on board and they get him to the

concert and actually Goofy is the first one on

stage after Powerline and he gets electrocuted

by the electro ball there. And then Max is like

dad do the perfect cast and the perfect cast

is this whole thing they have with the fishing

thing and they turn it into a dance move and

Roxanne sees Max on TV because that's the lie

he told her now see for some odd reason when

they were in the woods and and Max was gonna

write to Roxanne on this postcard thing I Don't

know why but I had Some weird Forrest Gump feather

notion in my head that the part Went when he

rips it up the part that says I lied to get caught

on the tree I thought that was gonna float all

the way back to wherever the hell Roxanne was

That could have been possible, but it would have

been really easy It would have been really questionable

is what it would have been, but yeah I absolutely

just love the way this movie but the whole plot

the way, you know I'm gonna say there were a

couple of things with it that Yeah, I kind of

when I even when I saw it originally in what

was a 96 when it came out and when I saw it in

the theater The only thing that kind of bugged

me was that there were so many musical numbers

and it was just kind of like really You know,

I remember I remember when they all start singing

and you start seeing them driving down the road

as they're getting on the road again, you know

to go off on the thing and you start seeing the

undertaker, you know, the undertaker pull up

in their car and Dead body flips out and starts

singing along. I was kind of like, okay, you

know what even for a Disney film? That's a little

hokey. That's a little creepy You know, but other

than that everything about the movie I did like

so I mean, you know Just tone it down. Just a

little bit on the music. That's it See I like

some of the goofy and Mac songs. Yeah, I will

agree with that. But the whole power line thing

I love yes No, the power line thing had to be

in there. That was good. Yeah, that was awesome

All right, so running down the who's who of the

show of the film you have Bill Farmer as goofy.

I Mean, what else is there to say? It's Bill

frigging Farmer. I mean The man the myth the

legend this guy has done almost Everything you

can think of I mean, you know, and he would hear

him talk in his normal voice other than as goofy

it's Is the weirdest thing because you just you

look at him you hear him saying stuff and you

go There is no way that guy does goofy's voice

and then all of a sudden he does that. Oh, yeah,

and you know, whoa Bill has got it nailed down

Mm -hmm He was not the first goofy though. No,

he's he's the goofy everybody knows remembers

and loves but he was not the first goofy The

funny thing is his He's had several live action,

apparently. He's had two that are listed here.

I'm sure they're more on IMDB, but I prefer Wikipedia.

He was in Robocop as Justin Ballard Watkins.

Oh, geez. He was a voice in Rover Dangerfield.

He was Foghorn Leghorn, Sylvester and Yosemite

Sam in Space Jam. Let's see. He was Stinky in

Casper's Spirited Beginning and also Casper meets

Wendy. He is become since about 1990 He's become

Pluto Yeah for the most part and that's pretty

much from 2007 to well, I mean he's done goofy

and Pluto obviously done he's done goofy a long

ass time, but he's done Pluto since about 1990

and from 2007 to now He's it's pretty much he's

pretty much been Pluto for the most part He is

doc and sir yips a lot in the 7d He was in an

episode of till death in 2010. He played George

Bush in the minister. Okay. Oh, yeah Already

then I mean, I love Bill Farmer. I think he's

an awesome guy. He's just one of those people

that... He's one of those voice actors that he

can do so much with his voice, but the one...

You know, most people in Hollywood are always

scared of being typecast. Being typecast is a

classic Disney character. I mean the man is so

proud of that, you know, how could you not be?

I mean, you know, you got him you you had because

I believe Wayne Alwine has passed Alwine has

passed away since then but you had Wayne Alwine

as as Mickey you had Russie Taylor as Minnie

you had Whoever plays Donald I can't remember

off top I've been I mean like all these classic

characters that we've grown up with and over

the years and just so well done Jason Marsden

was max the singing voice was done by Aaron lore

Marsden he's We'll be here all day going through

his stuff. Yeah some amazing stuff. He is the

world's cutest kitten normal Yes, he is He was

himself on boy meets world for a year or so I'm

just waiting for them to bring him back in in

girl meets world if they ever do I don't think

they will but He was the teenage voice of Clark

Kent in Superman the animated series in the very

first three -parter He was Richie Foley slash

gear in static shock. He was in House of Mouse

as as max goof And of course a lot of people

probably remember him from step -by -step Really?

Yeah, he was on step -by -step. He was oh God

he was the the one older brother's Best friend.

Oh Yeah That's where my that's where my wife

knew him from cuz she's we saw him at wonder

con a couple years ago And he was doing voiceovers

and she goes. Oh, hey, I think I recognize him.

I She just walked over and said JT JT from from

From step by step, but yeah, she goes. I think

I recognize him. She goes. Oh, hey He's that

guy from step by step and I'm like, okay He was

the voice of Duke and GI Joe renegades, which

is very short -lived series Let's see recently

He is that in hulking the agents of smash He

was young Bruce Wayne and bore the Batman last

year Oh, wow, he's So he's played teenage Clark

Kent and young Bruce Wayne, so he's played both

young roles for Batman and Superman. That's awesome

And he's like what he's like in his in his late

20s early 30s now. Oh, no, he's not in his late

20s He's how old is Jason? I know now I gotta

look. Oh shit. He's older than I am The boy is

40, I'm sorry Rob Paulson will be here all day,

but he is PJ Pete What I love about Rob is whenever

he is at one of these conventions or whatever

it doesn't matter what convention he's at if

it's a specific panel and when he just immediately

goes into the voice of whatever care like I watched

the 20th anniversary a goofy movie panel recently

and you know when he gets announced or introduced

he says hello in his normal voice then he just

goes right into pj and it's like it's just so

awesome oh yeah i you know i i gotta brag just

a little bit i met rob Pulsing that comic last

year and have a wonderful picture. We had a nice

little conversation about all the voices that

he's done I introduced my wife to him and he

was very very pleasant the man. I can't say enough

about him I mean, he's just he is a pleasant

person and willing to talk to his fans He loves

the fact that people recognize him for the voices

that he's done that he's admired for being Yakko

Warner You know that he's done God I I can't

even think of half the stuff pinky Dr. Scratch

and sniff, you know PJ obviously just all sorts

of stuff and nice nice man nice man Absolutely,

I did not know this okay the The voice of Roxanne

is Kelly Martin Okay, I thought I recognized

the voice but I'm like who is that? Well, the

funny thing is is that the first time I ever

saw her like actual live -action stuff Was a

this is gonna be so sad was a hallmark Christmas

movie featuring Cameron Matheson aka Ryan Lavery

from all my children It was called the Christmas

ornament that came out about two years ago was

the first time I had ever seen her and I So did

not put the connection together that she was

like her voice was was it was Roxanne's Polly

Shore Whatever the hell happened to that guy.

He was Bobby in this one Polly sure he hasn't

The last two films according to this he was in

was Bucky Larson born to be a star and Whiskey

business in 20s 2011 and 2012 I you know I said

on Twitter When I When I was watching the movie,

I'm like what the hell ever happened to Polly

sure somebody replied to me A question no one

has really bothered to ask until you just did

now Well in 2003 he died Yeah, supposedly. Holly

sure is dead. He came out with this film and

I want to say it was more like a documentary

and he basically faked his own death and got

caught doing it mm -hmm and it was I saw bits

and pieces of it and it's actually kind of funny

because Everybody knew him with that huge fro

of hair that he had Then he like hacked it all

off to look basically like the shaved head sort

of looked like he has like his character has

in extremely goofy movie And so people were like

no that can't be him. Oh, he must be dead You

know and he faked his own death, and then he

comes out he starts asking people like out on

the street Hey, what have you heard about Polly

sure I heard he's dead. He goes no. I'm not The

only movie of his that I can actually watch and

enjoy live -action is son -in -law I love son

-in -law. Yeah Probably for me would have been

would have been in not in the army now, but in

Sino, man That's only because Polly really doesn't

make that big an appearance in there. It's more

Sean Astin and Brandon What's his name? Yeah

So we got Jenna van von oi as Stacey she's been

in a number of stuff She was on blossom. Oh,

oh my god. That's six. Holy crap. Yeah, she was

blossom was best friend I know it took me a second

when I saw it. I'm like, yeah Yeah, it took me

a minute there She was in pepper and she was

in an episode of cold case Last thing she was

in was something called Luke warm from 2012 She

did dr. Do little three in 2006. I don't know

why We did the money hmm You've got Julie Brown

you got Tevin Campbell who was power line you

got I Like forgot Mickey was in this and then

I realized oh wait the phone Well, no, there

was I thought there was a hitchhiking scene with

him and Donald. Yeah, there was But I also remember

the Mickey Mouse phone. Oh, yeah max had Pat

Butterm was possum park and the the possum park

MC, you know the one thing I remember him from

like I know he's done all this stuff and sadly

he's no longer with us, but the one thing and

One thing the only thing I really remember him

from is Being a couple of the bullets from who

framed Roger Rabbit Well, you know that he was

in back to the future three as well He had a

small cameo appearance in there where where he's

he's telling that he's telling Marty that Yeah,

it'll be a yellow belly coward. Yeah I just This

is just such a great film, folks. It really,

really is. I love all the stuff with the father

and son bit and how they show their relationship

to be somewhat okay in the beginning. It kind

of, as I already said, kind of avoids and goes

to funk in the middle, and then by the end, everything's

better again and whatever else. I just really

enjoyed that about this movie. Yeah, I mean,

I kind of liked it in the fact that it was a

more... It was a more grown -up like you saw

goofy getting into situations But it was more

realistic in the fact that it wasn't quite so

outrageous like you need to see him getting slung

You know 300 feet up into the air and and falling

or something like that and walking away from

it completely unscathed Yeah, I mean there's

the sequels for yeah, you know Mm -hmm, but it

was it was a little bit more realistic And I

kind of like that the fact that max is growing

up, and you know he's going through puberty basically

It's the best way to put it. You know yeah. Hey.

I've got a girl who likes me Oh my gosh. How

am I gonna pull this off type of thing? You know

the funny thing is is like and I don't this just

got to be me reading into shit, so As I'm watching

this movie, I'm like, oh my god There's almost

the same kind of stuff I would have done to impress

Jen because there's several things that I had

that I've done In the early part of our friendship

to really impress and win her over one of them

was Asking a certain voice actor to do a couple

of lines for me to give to her I would know I

normally never do that. I will normally never

go to anybody but this was something really really

special it was right before birthday so uh...

and luckily that person and i'm not going to

say who it is luckily that person said yeah sure

uh... you can tell me off air yeah yeah yeah

because i know i know even bringing it up it's

gonna whoever listens to this is gonna land base

me for that but uh... So a goofy movie, absolutely

awesome. I loved watching it again. I still got

the same enjoyment now that I did 15 years ago

when I saw it, you know, as a teenager. We're

going to take a quick break and we're going to

get extremely goofy after this. This has been

one crazy vacation. And it's all over again.

We made it! Come on, Max, let's get you on stage.

Maybe this isn't such a good idea. He's a son

going off to college. Going already? See ya!

Goodbye, my little college man. And going for

the extreme adventure. Let's do it! Until...

Maxie! I'm just a yearnin' for some learnin'!

Now, only on video. One goofy dad is about to

learn how to groove. a movie that proves no matter

how old you are you never stop learning that

family comes first even if your dad is goofy

dad you're scaring people an extremely goofy

movie now on video so it is time to get extreme

Extremely goofy movie also known as a goofy movie

too. It came out in 2000 This one Max is nearly

18 years old. He's going off to college with

PJ and Bobby He and his friends want to be this

the top skate, you know roller X X games team

at the college X games and They when they get

to college they are met by the gamma mu mu fraternity

and i'm like oh god yeah seriously i i i think

pj says it best who wants to be a cow or something

like that it's like oh god so this film centers

around max going off to college goofy as a father

having separation anxiety kind of thing going

on and Just being all depressed that his son's

gone off to college. I'm not gonna be together

anymore and During this time goofy ends up getting

fired from his now second job Roxanne is nowhere

in the picture so we assume that that they've

broken up or Yeah just vanished that's all yeah

that was kind of like my one complaint about

this one was whatever happened to max in rock

city and this is supposed to be the love of his

life and blah blah blah and she's not even here

um uh so goofy doesn't take max's leaving very

well he ends up getting fired and it come turn

to find out he still has to finish his senior

year of college to obtain a degree before he's

allowed to get a better employment job before

he's allowed to get a better job essentially

so he joins his son on campus in Max's chagrin

and he gets several different pieces of advice

from Pete he ends up meeting the librarian they

end up falling in love Meanwhile Max and PJ and

Bobby are all wanting to take down the gammas

and the gammas basically use goofy to get back

at Max I like this one. It's more of The first

film was Father -son getting to know each other

getting to have their relationship be better

and this one has that still but this is more

of on this side of The volleyball court you have

goofy and his interests and everything he likes

and on the other side of the net You got max

and what he wants to do and whatever else. I

really dig that about this one. I Yeah, I mean

as I said before I I thought that this one was

probably the better of the two I know people

probably But the story I thought was was well

put together you had you know all the dynamics

of Bobby and PJ and everything going together

to The one thing that I thought was kind of just

hokey was Their big goal in life was to beat

the Gammas and be the X Games champs and it's

like Really? You guys don't have anything else

that you want to do with your lives from college

And that was kind of the thing with goofy was

you got a focus, you know Just like game of horseshoes.

You got a focus out there and don't lose your

focus and I was kind of like okay, so what are

they gonna focus on after this and it you know,

they never really said that was kind of just

something to bug me about it, but Other than

that, I thought it was a great story. I thought

it was you know, everything going through some

of it was hokey obviously though some of the

race with the X Games, but I Liked it for what

it was Every time I watch this movie and I see

the race with the SX games all as I can think

of is the McGee and me short thing skate expectations

because it's essentially the same damn thing

with one team cheating versus the other team

Not that I have a problem with with a goofy movie

I think it's I think it's interesting and you

got Brad Garrett as tank. That's awesome Yeah,

you went from being grease pit to tank Well,

he ended up being Lobo couple well actually he

was little four years before this but yeah I

mean I Just really dig this movie because it

shows Both sides of father and son. Yeah, not

necessarily that they have to you know always

be together like goofy wants them to be but that

they each have their own interests and they each

have their own lives and you know One thing and

you know, we mentioned this last week with Toy

Story We don't want to know what the hell happened

Andy's dad because it's too damn depressing.

Yeah, but it's one of those things where with

goofy What? Do they ever in because I don't remember

goof troop all that much. Do they ever say whatever

happening Max's mom, you know, I don't know.

I never found that out I always kind of wondered

because obviously goofy is a single parent Mm

-hmm, and you know, he's hooking up with Miss

Marple, which I laughed at the Agatha Christie

reference there with that But you know, he's

hooking up with Miss Marple in the librarian

and I was kind of like Okay, whatever Yeah I

You know, I mean I like I like max I don't think

we needed to know too much about where his mom

is Because the center of this story an extremely

goofy movie is more so you know goofy actually

getting a life and you know getting a girlfriend

and the setting of the everything else as far

as that side goes because Max just wants to go

to college or party which you know like you said

before it's not exactly goofy needed to hit home

with him those those values, those, those, you

know, oh my God, you know, college isn't just

a party. You need to sit down, you need to do

your homework, you need to learn. Yeah. You know,

it's just, you know. And, you know, goofy is

the same thing. When he goes through his downward

spiral at college because of the gammas and all

that stuff, he lets his grades slip. And then,

you know, because he has a good woman coming

into his life and she helps him out. Oh my God,

those scenes with him and her, it's just, she's

sitting on his back at one point, you know, like

cross -legged Indian style. I'm like, oh my God,

it's so hilarious. I absolutely love that. It

was rocky all over again. Yeah. Oh god. You just

imagine hearing eye of the tiger with goofy.

Oh my god, this is so hilarious. Well, and that's

something I did like a lot about this one was

the music for this choices that they had for

the music, you know, when there's when they're

playing, they're dancing at the club and they're

dancing the 70s music and it was just like, OK.

They they did such a good job of putting this

together that it wasn't like it was all the musical

like the first one was it Felt like it was pieced

together properly for music for me well see the

the thing with the two movies is the the first

a goofy movie is centered to be a musical because

it's centered around going to the powerline concert

center around max's enjoyment and fandom of that

of that musical character, so Of course they're

going to center musical numbers around the road

trip and all that. This is extremely goofy movie

is them placing the two characters, Max and Goofy,

in one or the other setting. So at first they're

at home, Max is getting ready to go to college,

blah, blah, blah, and then they're at college,

and then that's one stationary setting. They're

not on a road trip anymore. So the music for

this, it makes sense. It's enjoyable and all

that. I I don't care what anyone says eye to

eye and What's the other oh god? I should know

this what the hell is the other song? Damn it.

I just shared it on Facebook earlier. Oh god

Yeah, it's that first song the one that max uses

Damn it. I know Not not shake your groove thing.

That's from extremely goofy movie It's a standout

and I'd I try that's what it is. You know those

two songs were really awesome the This like I

wasn't like I was paying more attention to the

story of Extremely Goofy Movie and what's going

on with the characters and the actual music Like

the music to me in Extremely Goofy Movie was

all background like there what it's it's not

a standard Disney musical to me It really isn't

right. It's not like a goofy movie was like I

said, like I've already said because it's it

You just can't Road trips are a perfect way to

center a musical around stationary pieces like

this and the way that this was set up I just

don't think it would have worked yeah, I Don't

even know what the budget or the box office was

for this because I don't have that information

in front of me But I do know that even though

some people don't like it. It did do fairly well

Won the award for best animated home video production

You know, so there is that Well and he got it's

on Rotten Tomatoes, it's got a 57 % versus 53

for a goofy movie so Yeah, you know people did

like this a little bit better Mm -hmm And again,

I think it's more so now going back and looking

at it. It's more so the thing of My god, you

know a goofy movie is is your you know kind of

Like I already said, it's that simple father

and son kind of story You know, I love both these

movies I really do And let like you though. I

like extremely just a I like them both for individual

reasons, but yeah I'm gonna go back and watch

one again. It's probably gonna be the sequel

You know a goofy movie. I can watch it. It's

fine. I haven't what like I said before this

I hadn't watched it in 16 17 years it might be

another 10 years before I go back and look at

it again Don't know. Yeah, I mean I'm not saying

I don't enjoy it. I do enjoy it I think it's

a really really good movie for the time that

it was and it's a really good representation

of goofy not just the the the bungler that he's

usually portrayed to be yeah, I For me when it

comes to goofy on his own like I I think it's

great with him and Max But when it comes to goofy

on his own, I like those instructional shorts.

Oh god. Yes Those instructional shorts with the

narrow who do does that narration? Oh my god,

that was such I love that narrator voice that

does used to use they had so many of them with

him playing hockey him playing or him learning

Yeah, it's the guy that yeah, I mean it's like

If you look at the most recent short where they

had him about the TV, it's that guy. So I'll

have to go back and look at that one because

it's the same guy that was doing all the other

ones. And I like the way that they essentially

break the fourth wall and have the characters

talk to the narrator and stuff. They did that

on House of Mouse a few times. These two films,

they're just absolutely priceless. Yeah, they're

they're they're classics for what they are. They're

not there I won't say that they're you know up

there in the Disney classics that need to come

out of the vault every couple years type of thing

like, you know Beauty and the Beast or Cinderella

or something like that, but they're still up

there They're they're still good and enjoyable

for what they are and they're they're good Disney

films. I have no problem letting kids watch it

see I When you have something that comes out

of one of their animated series because as I

said a goofy movie was essentially a sequel to

goof troop Like I hold that on a completely different

level than I hold the standard Disney Film really

like don't get me wrong a little mermaid little

mermaid to a little mermaid the animated series.

That's that's fine All well and good and we're

just gonna ignore Ariel's beginning because we

need a prequel You know, but like I see Beauty

and the Beast and 101 Dalmatians and all that

stuff I see those on their own 101 Dalmatians

did not need to live -action films. Thank you

very much Even though Glenn Close was the best

person for live -action Cruella Yeah, but it's

one of those things where I see them on two different

levels. I see the The full -on big -budget animated

films, you know, you know like the ones we've

already mentioned lion king Aladdin I see those

on one one tier and then I see stuff like this

a goofy movie extremely like on a separate playing

field. Yeah Yeah, and that's that's all I'm trying

to get out is that they're yeah, they're good

in their own, right? They're not quite the The

level of that they're not quite that tier of

the classics the Disney classic everybody knows

but they're still good for what they are Yeah

On a scale of zero to five stars, what would

you give a goofy movie a goofy movie? I'm gonna

say four and a half only because of that it seemed

too much musical and that was You know, that

was my big beef with it and I remember thinking

in the theater when I saw it in theater just

kind of going really and that was it, you know

and I liked it. It was really good. It was cute,

you know good date movie For me, I'm also going

to give it a four and a half. I really, really

enjoyed watching the movie again after all this

time. But some of the songs with Max and Goofy,

don't get me wrong, I love Max and Goofy, but

they're not singers. They're just not. What about

Extremely? What are you going to give that one?

I'm probably going to give it four and a half

as well just because It didn't make a they didn't

put it in the theater. So that's I know it's

a beef, but I liked it I really did like it better

than a goofy movie it just I it would have been

good had they done a You know an actual theatrical

release for this rather than a direct -to -video

I see I think at the time with This extremely

came out in 2000 most of unless you unless you

were a big budget Lilo and Stitch you know that

kind of thing unless you were a big budget disney

film i think they were going to the home video

more because they would get you know you always

talk about you know how certain movies take um

clerks for example did alright in the theaters

it was successful but it's now a cult classic

on video and on demand and all you know so that's

really where i think that disney was going with

with extremely and that's why they because Putting

it in theaters it it's a big risk Yeah, it's

it's not just Disney it any film putting it in

there. Just look at general arms Any any film

putting it in theaters, especially animated films

is Unless it's something like an inside out or

a toy story or a bugs life or a wall -e You know

unless it's something a lot of Shrek Putting

it especially goofy you know, putting it in theaters

was probably a big risk, and I think that's why

they went the home video route. For me, I'm going

to give Extremely a four and a half as well.

I enjoyed it a lot more. I thought the whole

X Games thing, Pro Skater kind of stuff was really

cool. There are a lot of great lines in it. I

love the fact that they actually gave Goofy some

character development and pushing forward i thought

that was really cool i assume both of these are

on dvd i don't know if they're both on blu ray

i would assume the first one is but i do know

they're both on digital we're going to take a

quick break uh... come back with final words

and all that good stuff and close the show after

this max look it's the leaning tower of cheesa

thoughts on the goofy films overall i like them

they were pleasantly enjoyable they weren't you

know like i said they weren't the best films

i've ever seen but they certainly weren't and

having the disney name attached to it you can't

you you almost can't go wrong with it you know

it's gonna be something decent for me I absolutely

love going back and looking at these things like

I had zero other than the fact that it's max

and goofy and I know some of these characters

like Pete and peach like I know the characters

from the series and all that stuff but I had

zero nostalgia going into this I looked at this

with fresh eyes and I you know I looked at this

with oh my god a goofy movie that's something

my father and I would have done actually I remember

we actually drove from Massachusetts to Canada

three years before this movie came out in 1992

Um, so we had kind of a father son road trip

and that kind of thing. So that kind of hit home

for me. Um, with an extremely goofy movie, it's

just fun. It's just, it's just a fun character

progression for both Max and goofy. And I absolutely

dig it and enjoy it and all that good stuff.
