Awesome / An Extremely Goofy Movie

Go To

  • Everything's Funkier with Disco, and the dance scene is nothing short of a Moment of Awesome for Goofy; Disco Dan gets the girl!
  • Goofy using the Horseshoe toss technique on Bradley.
    "It's about staying focused...ON YOUR GOALS!"
  • There's the scene where Goofy announcing that he was leaving the Gammas. Tank picks him up and asks Bradley if he should knock some sense into him. Apparently not in the mood to be polite, Goofy grabs a pool cue and slams it into Tank's foot.
  • Goofy finally reprioritizes himself after failing his midterms and his falling out with Max. Finally finding his focus, Goofy goes to ace his finals with flying colors.
    • Despite at this time basically being on nonspeaking terms with his son, Goofy's decision to leave it at that for now and to prioritize completing college actually shows a great personal development on his part. Goofy knows there will be a time to reconcile, but for now Goofy will focus on himself and respect Max's desire for some space.
    • If you've never been a college student yourself, most can tell you that there's quite often far fewer opportunities in college to correct a failed grade than there were in high school. While this is obviously up to the particular curriculum the professor follows for their course, 9 times out of 10, there's only a handful of graded assignments with your midterms and finals having the greatest impact on your grade. The fact that Goofy recovers from his depression, refocuses his efforts on his own academics, and ACES his classes with what was probably a flat 0 on his midterm is beyond impressive.
  • The referee doing everything in his power to ensure that Team 99 gets as fair a chance as possible to get another member. The delivery of the simple "Not by my watch!" telling off Bradley who was engaging in Hypocritical Humor made it even better.
    • Not to mention his smug expression as Tank shows up to get some sweet payback on Brad for abandoning him to his fiery demise at the end of the race, and simply letting it happen.
  • Many people were overjoyed when PJ is shown dancing freely and openly while actively flirting with the girl he just a minute ago was completely clamming up around. Seeing him smile so much more consistently can lead us to smile in more ways than one. And of course, other people can still find him funny.
  • In her first scene, Beret Girl gets fed up with Bradley, tells him off in verse and turns the entire club against him.
    Beret Girl: This is a real L7 scene. Let's all just take a trip down the road of forgiveness and compassion.
    Bradley: Ooh, passion. [laughs] I like your style, Little Miss Mochaccino, but I'm busy right now.
    Beret Girl: Well I'm dizzy right now from watching your downward spiral.
    Bradley: Ah, why don't you go save some whales or something?
    Beret Girl: Ha! (snaps her fingers in his face) Oh, you slay me, tiger. You are the fly in my soup. You are the eyelash in my eye. You are so busy blowing off bad vibes in every DI-REC-TION, we are all choking on your second-hand smoke!
    • She then moonwalks, snapping her fingers, getting everyone else in the club to do the same to the Gammas until they leave, rightfully unnerved.
    • Also prior beforehand, how the trio of friends stand up for one another when dealing with Bradley. Also Heartwarming since it shows the development of their bond.
  • The Rousing Speech Bobby gives to Max when PJ and Beret Girl's attempts to get Max out of their funk fails. Besides being a good one, it also reinforces the importance of his personality and outgoing nature. He gets his friends pumped up and full of confidence.
    Max: If I can't even beat my father, who is probably the most athletically-challenged man in the universe, how can you expect me to beat the other competitors? We're starting in last place because of me!
    Bobby: That never stopped us before! You wanna give that Gamma geek Bradley the satisfaction of knowing he forced us out?
    Max: (still somewhat shaky) Well... no.
    Bobby: You wanna let the crowd who once cheered for you cheer for someone else? Especially when that someone else is your old man?
    Max: No!
    Bobby: Are you gonna be someone else's towel boy?!
    Max: (completely serious) No!
    PJ: Together we can do it!
    Max: You're right! We can still beat 'em! Let's whip those Gammas!
    Bobby: Whoo-hoo-hoo! Mission: Possible!
    (cue Team Hand-Stack)
    All: Let's do it to it!
  • Chuck, the blimp announcer, continually interrupts Ken, the ground reporter, throughout the movie. When the blimp begins to crash down and he says it's like he's in a nightmare that just won't quit, Ken answers "That's right, Chuck" with a smugly satisfied expression.
  • Brad blasts Tank & Max into the fabric logo, setting it on fire. Despite being close to the finish line Max and Goofy don't hesitate to lift the beam off Tank.
  • Tank turning on Brad for his betrayal and slingshotting him into the X-games blimp is intensely satisfying!
    Bradley: Congrats, Max. I haven't forgotten our agreement.
    Max: The bet's off, Bradley. But I think you owe him something.
    Tank: Brad! Hi, it's me, the guy you let down.
    Bradley: (nervously) H-Hey, T-Tank! Who loves ya, baby, huh?
    Tank: (growls) You're goin' down like a four-cent pair of socks.
    Bradley: You and me, baby, all the way! (tries to run only to be stopped by Tank)
    Tank: Oh, a vacancy at the Gamma house, takin' applications.
    Bradley: Okay! Let go of me, you big, fat jerk!
    Tank: Time to get on the last jet...TO NOWHERE!
    (fires Brad towards the X-games blimp)
