Untold Story of “A Goofy Movie” Coming to Disney+ – Trailer Released. Okay, so instead of the heavy drama of a galaxy far, far away, the Millennials got a different kind of father-son story with Max and Goofy. It’s kinda funny, right? We Gen-Xers had the epic “I am your father” moment, and the next generation gets a cartoon dog dad trying to connect with his teenage son. But hey, there’s something seriously special about A Goofy Movie.
Think about it – that movie dropped in ’95, and it still resonates. “I 2 I,” sung by Tevin Campbell, is iconic (to some)! And the fact that people still debate whether Goofy was overbearing or Max was just a typical angsty teen? That’s the mark of a film that got under our skin in the best way. It’s more than just a funny cartoon; it tapped into something real about those tricky parent-teen relationships. It carved out its spot as one of the best Disney Animated movies. (which hurts me to say)! Long Live the Empire!
