Then in the 1950s they changed him into a dad and a kind of an every man. He was kind of simple, just regular old Goofy. They changed him even before I was doing it. “Goofy more than probably any of the other main characters was really malleable. To celebrate the anniversary we chatted to the iconic voice of Goofy, Bill Farmer, and voice actor extraordinaire Jason Marsden, the voice of his too cool for school son Max, to chat about the making and legacy of the beloved movie.įarmer has played Goofy in over 4000 projects for Disney since taking the role in 1987 and the character’s capacity for reinvention still delights him. Spinning off from the popular Disney series Goof Troop, the movie was originally meant to be “A Goof Troop Movie” but it ended up becoming an emotional meditation on fatherhood, friendship, and growing up which has found a long lasting popularity and passionate fandom that has far outlasted the expectations of the people who made it. The ’90s animated adventure has become a stone cold classic in the two plus decades since it came out. I kinda liked this movie, not that it was the best disney movie ever made, but it was decent enough to satisfy my days.If you can believe it, A Goofy Movie came out 25 years ago. Everything after this were hit-and-miss animated films, excluding a few like, say, The Hunchback Of Notre Dame, Hercules etc. You could easily tell where Disney was going with this.
