In 1954, Walt Disney Presents : The Goofy Adventure Story“, we get a semi-full picture of Goofy’s family tree. The Goof heritage is a long and proud one.Passing the torch, Goofy would later be voiced by actors such as: Hal Smith, Will Ryan, Tony Pope, and Bill Farmer. Love a good “Gawffaw”? You have Goofys original voice actor, Pinto Colvig to thank! If the original voice of Goofy sounds familiar, Roles like Grumpy and Bashful from Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs solidified his position with some of the greats of voice acting.

He was in fact the first to have his own television series (outside of Mickey, of course!). Out of Mickey, Minnie, Donald and Pluto – Goofy was the last one of the Fab 5 to make his appearance in the Mickey Mouse cartoons.Thought to potentially be a minor character, Goofy was created as only a one-shot! Turns out audiences loved him so much, that he made a comeback time and time again – until he finally became part of the regular group of misfits!.Even though Goofy is one of the originals, there still is a lot that people do not know about our favorite chuckling dog! It wouldn’t be until 2 years later that Dippy Dog would be known as the Goofy we know and love today. And that's what makes it enduring.On May 25th, 1932 – Goofy appeared in his first Mickey Mouse cartoon ( Mickey’s Revue) as “Dippy Dog”. "But it has every hallmark in terms of its emotion, and relationships, and humanity, and storytelling, and connection that you expect from a Disney classic. "There's no princess there's no castle there's some raccoons and a banjo," he said at the D23 Expo. "Stand Out" and "I 2 I," sung by Powerline voice actor Tevin Campbell are timeless jams, while its opening song "After Today" went viral in a 2009 YouTube video.īut catchy musical numbers are really all "A Goofy Movie" had in terms of what Hahn would call the "hallmarks" of a Disney classic. I felt like one of the Beatles." Or - maybe Powerline? After all, the music of "A Goofy Movie" is undoubtedly one of the reasons it's remained ingrained in the minds of its fans. "We had an almost three-minute standing ovation at the end," Farmer said. The actor said they actually needed to turn away people at one point because they'd already exceeded the 500-person capacity of the auditorium they were in. But this was the '90s, an era in which films that slumped in theaters could find a second wind (and a cult following) thanks to VHS. Its total earnings of $37.6 million are only a fraction of the $191.8 million "The Lion King" drew in its first weekend. Given the studio's feelings towards the film and the restrictions on its theatrical release, it's probably no surprise it didn't exactly draw people into theaters.
So there basically couldn't have been more apathy or indifference at Disney towards "A Goofy Movie." Hahn even said the release of the film only happened as part of "fulfilling a corporate legacy" laid down by Jeffrey Katzenberg, the former Disney chairman that originally greenlit the project. It was a C movie." And even when the film was allowed to have a theatrical release it was severely limited - with no premiere in California (ironic for a film with where the destination is Los Angeles) and instead debuted only at the AMC Pleasure Island theatre in Walt Disney World in Orlando, Florida.
Producer Don Hahn went so far as to tell Vanity Fair: "It wasn't even a B movie.
