A Goofy Movie has one of the best father & son dynamics I've seen in fiction!


When it comes to Goofy & Max's relationship, what I love so much about it, is how they both clearly love each other but they have issues that result in both of them being at fault over it!When it comes to Max, his issue is how much he takes his father for granted! He is focused too much on the aspects of him being an "embarrassment", that he disregards the fact that he is in fact lucky to have a father like him who actually loves him and would do anything for him compared to the type of father his best friend; P.J. has in Pete (who doesn't care to give him any form of validation or love, and only loves the power he has over him)When it comes to Goofy, his issue is how he doesn't want to accept that his son is growing up and doesn't respect the fact that he needs boundaries so he can self-discover! Although his strong attachment to him could be understood where Max is the only family he has, and they're all they have. His fear of losing him, is part of what causes Max to have some resentment towards him.I loved that scene in the movie where they are chasing after their car, and they both let everything out on how each of them created these problems via /r/movies https://ift.tt/gxY3ujZ
