12774675, "A Goofy Movie" 20th Anniversary (EW link)
Posted by b.Touch, Tue Apr-07-15 06:57 PM
The closest we got to a Black Disney movie back in the 90s (well, this and almost Aida as well).

Tevin Campbell sings!
Bruce W. Smith ("Bebe's Kids", "The Proud Family") is head designer!
No on remembers Goofy's always been b/Black (he's inspired by part - for better or worse - on the black comedians of the 1930s)!

No swipe b/c the article doesn't make sense without the video links.

but i hated the whole Goof Troop phase. Never liked either Goofy Movie.
12774735, There IS no second Goofy Movie.

I deny the existence of direct-to-video sequels.
12774843, I had no idea it was direct to video
Posted by RobOne4, Wed Apr-08-15 12:25 AM
first one wasnt very good either.
12774876, I loved the first one.

It's far, far better than it was supposed to be.
12775027, how did you like Stitch 2? it was direct to video and was really good

12775039, The only Stitch-related stuff I've seen besides the original film

12774850, I'm still mad Bobby Brown didn't get to play Powerline

He shoulda sued them for biting his image
12774877, people today don't even realize how much Bobby Brown there is
Posted by b.Touch, Wed Apr-08-15 02:56 AM

12774994, I wanna give kudos to the storyboard aritsts & director Kevin Lima
Posted by b.Touch, Wed Apr-08-15 08:35 AM
for the scene where Goofy legit gets pissed off and angry at his son.

I remember being in the theater like "oh, they goin' for it, huh?"
12774990, The Goofy Movie was a really good flick when it dropped

12775032, this is one of those things where a couple of years = generation gap
Posted by John Forte, Wed Apr-08-15 09:05 AM
I don't think I'm much older than most of the posters in this thread, but I've never seen this film and wasn't aware that it was beloved.
12775042, I always wondered if they were supposed to be Black....'cause Peg
Posted by Overqualified, Wed Apr-08-15 09:10 AM
and Pete drove a Lincoln Mark V.

Were they even in the movie? I don't remember.
12775048, Goofy _is_ Black, for better or worse.
Posted by b.Touch, Wed Apr-08-15 09:13 AM
He's based in large part on Stepin Fetchit and Willie Best. But heck, I'll take it.

Pete and PJ are in "A Goofy Movie", but Peg and the little sister are not.
12775051, I wonder what they were thinking in drawing Peg with those hips
Posted by Overqualified, Wed Apr-08-15 09:15 AM
and pretty much the air of a Black woman.

She used to do things to a prepubescent me.

Story for another day.
12775060, I don't think he worked on the show, but Bruce W. Smith
Posted by b.Touch, Wed Apr-08-15 09:20 AM
