The Art of Vacationing (also known as Goofy in The Art of Vacationing) is a 2012 American fantasy comedy short film featuring Goofy made to promote the Disneyland Resort and Mickey's Toontown. The film is directed by Matt Wyatt [2] and stars Bill Farmer as Goofy and Corey Burton as the Narrator. The film features Goofy taking a vacation to the Disneyland Resort.
Goofy leaves his playhouse in Mickey's Toontown and checks into Disney's Grand Californian Hotel and Spa. After being woken up by an alarm clock the next morning, he goes to the hotel's spa, and marks everywhere he wishes to go on a map of Disneyland Park and Disney California Adventure Park.
Goofy then goes on Gadget's Go Coaster in Mickey's Toontown, hesitantly meets Cinderella in front of Sleeping Beauty Castle, goes on Autotopia in Tomorrowland, eats various meals at a restaurant, goes to the swimming pool at the Disneyland Hotel, takes pictures while riding the Golden Zephyr in Paradise Pier, buys various souvenirs at the World of Disney store in Downtown Disney, and concludes the night by watching World of Color at Paradise Bay. Goofy returns to the hotel and after checking off some of the things on his plan, Goofy goes to sleep, only to be woken by the alarm clock.
The film was posted to the Disney Parks YouTube channel on April 5, 2012. [3]
Goofy is an American cartoon character created by the Walt Disney Company. He is a tall, anthropomorphic dog who typically wears a turtle neck and vest, with pants, shoes, white gloves, and a tall hat originally designed as a rumpled fedora. Goofy is a close friend of Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck, and is Max Goof's father. He is normally characterized as hopelessly clumsy and dim-witted, yet this interpretation is not always definitive; occasionally, Goofy is shown as intuitive and clever, albeit in his own unique, eccentric way.
Clarabelle Cow is a cartoon character created by The Walt Disney Company. As an anthropomorphic cow, Clarabelle is one of Minnie Mouse's best friends. She was once depicted as the girlfriend of Horace Horsecollar, although now she is often paired with Goofy.
A Goofy Movie is a 1995 American animated musical comedy-adventure film produced by Disney MovieToons and Walt Disney Television Animation. Directed by Kevin Lima, the film is based on The Disney Afternoon television series Goof Troop created by Robert Taylor and Michael Peraza Jr., and serves as a standalone follow-up to the show. It features the voices of Bill Farmer, Jason Marsden, Jim Cummings, Kellie Martin, Rob Paulsen, Pauly Shore, Jenna von Oÿ, and Wallace Shawn. Taking place three years after the events of Goof Troop, the film follows Goofy and his son, Max, who is now in high school, and revolves around the father-son relationship between the two as Goofy embarks on a misguided mission to bond with his son by taking him on a cross-country fishing trip around the United States. This movie explores the themes of adolescent angst and crude humor that are more diverse over Goof Troop.
