The Unlikely Genius of An Extremely Goofy Movie

This video was almost twice as long as I intended it to be, and I still have so much I wish I could have fit in.....! In Scott Gorden's obituary, over ten years ago now, his family asked for donations to the City of Hope Cancer Center in lieu of flowers, so I'm going to use the pinned comment as an opportunity to re-up that call for donations in his honor <3

The name Bradley Uppercrust the Third is enough to make me laugh.

What I liked was that Maxes character development was carried on from the first movie. I hate when sequels undo character development because they rather play it safe and rehash what the first did. I liked we could tell that Max had an understanding of how much his Dad loves him while still wanting that independence. In the first movie he had no patience with Goofy, but you can tell he was really trying his best to be understanding of goofy’s situation this time. I liked seeing that maturity carry on from the first

My favorite part about this movie is how Max, the protagonist, it's the only normal, level headed, simple, non quirky character ik the movie, and he still stands out because every other character in this is fucking crazy

This movie made me excited to go to college and enjoy the experience, only to make me feel betrayed by how fucking disappointing college is

are we gunna mention how now maxley is dominating all of our tiktoks

And let no one ignore how freaking SUAVE Goofy is when disco dancing. This cannot be argued.

Just a quick comment, why are the animators of theses movies, so GOOD at drawing BADDIES. I mean there's Sylvia the librarian, Beret Girl, that one girl Max met at the club.

Fun fact, I just took a Storyboarding class in college and the director, Douglas McCarthy, was my professor! Such an amazing and fun dude!

hello goofy movie yaoi enjoyers. thank you for your patronage

So maxley is gonna get us all back to goofy movie

The first scene in this movie, particularly Goofy's horseshoe lecture, is SO CLEVER. The way the horseshoe bounces around and goes crazy before it makes it around the spike (Idk what it's called). It's subtle, but in the scheme of what Goofy is talking about, it really adds to the metaphor he's trying to get across and kinda foreshadows the entire movie.

These movies genuinely make me love goofy because they shaped goofy to simply be a struggling single father with an average teenage son!! Max is the perfect idea of an aging teen as in goof troop he stated he was 11.5 in literally the first episode and we have Seen him grow up!!! Even to this day in ducktales max has stayed aging! With goofy saying that max has been in college as of recently and I love that as a person who literally just ended their first semester and grew up watching these movies and goof troop. Max is personally my favourite character

This movie started a running joke with myself where every character played by Jeff Bennett is just Bradley Uppercrust III because thats who I hear whenever I hear him speak lol

I think its great Goofy find someone who love him back, and doesn't leave him when he does something goofy.

19 and starting college straight out of highschool without having been held back is quite possible if you live in a state where you are not allowed to start school until you are officially the right age (so 5 for kindergarden) and your birthday falls even a week after the year starts. So for example a December baby doesn't get to go to kindergarten until they are already almost 6.

What I really like about both movie and sequel is how it knows and acknowledges that children CAN understand real life problems and situations. They live through these things every day of their lives, even if the characters are going through experiences children haven’t gone through yet (like college), they’ve lived through it through their older siblings, their cousins, their parents, other older kids, etc. Kids aren’t stupid, and I’ve always found that companies assume that kids can’t understand and enjoy complex stories while still maintaining the child-like wonder that they posses.

0:14 I personally think both Cinderella 3 and Lion King 2 are good. Cinderella 3 is campy and super funny and Lion King 2 has really good music

The fact that Bobby questioned his reality with his gloves got him removed from anything Disney because after this movie he is never seen nor mentioned again 😂

I love the Easter egg that the names on the list of grades Goofy reads after his exams are people who worked on the film, and one poor dude got like the worst grades.
