In 1995, Disney released "A Goofy Movie" which followed the character Goofy as he embarks on a cross-country road trip with his son, Max. Along the way, they encounter various challenges and adventures, including a run-in with Bigfoot.

This vacation is Max's worst nightmare, and it couldn't have happened at a worse time- his original plan was to escort his dream date Roxanne to her friend Stacey's end-of-year-party to see a Powerline concert in Los Angeles.

The film was a minor box office success and praised for its heartwarming father-son story and catchy soundtrack including the Powerline songs i2i and Stand Out. It also spawned a sequel, "An Extremely Goofy Movie," in 2000. To this day, "A Goofy Movie" remains a beloved classic among Disney fans.

The behind the scenes drama at Disney involving Katzenberg, Eisner and Wells caused some release problems but A Goofy Movie quickly found an audience on it's way to becoming a true Disney classic.
