An Extremely Goofy Movie

Max heads off to college chasing the rush of extreme sports and the freedom of his own path, leaving Goofy a little adrift. When Goofy can no longer keep up at home, he loses his job after trying to help in a way that backfires. With funds tight and pride at stake, he decides to enroll in the same college as his son in a bid to stay close and prove he can grow up too. The pair still clings to their goofy routines, but the dynamic shifts as they move through dorms and classes, and a shared quest to figure out what it means to grow up without growing apart.

Directed by Douglas McCarthy, this animated comedy continues the Goofy saga as a direct to video sequel to A Goofy Movie. DisneyToon Studios handles the production with classic voice work from Bill Farmer as Goofy and Jason Marsden as Max. It nods to the original film while offering fresh humor and new settings.

Because it was released direct to home video, the film did not have a traditional theatrical box office run. As a result, box office figures are not a reliable measure of its reach. For fans and collectors, its release on DVD included optional extras and a soundtrack, but box office was not the measure of its value.

An Extremely Goofy Movie sits within the late 90s to early 2000s era of Disney direct to video sequels. It strengthens Goofy's big heart and stubborn optimism and underscores the bond between father and son even as both chase personal goals. It has a modest but loyal fan following.

Reception skews toward easy family fare that emphasizes responsibility and staying connected. The humor stems from Goofy’s good-natured mistakes while Max tests independence and learns to value family support as he pursues his own goals. It may not wow adults, but it lands with many families.
