It will be in front of National Treasure II, and it is EXCELLENT. IMHO, one of the funniest Goofy How To cartoons ever, and it fits right in with the rest of the series. And as anyone on these boards will tell you, I'm a picky cuss who doesn't give such complements lightly.

Originally Posted By jdub This came as a complete surprise to me, & I really enjoyed it. I would have been pleased with them dusting off an old toon, like they did with "Meet the Robinsons," but I LOVE that they are creating new animation. It was the most enjoyable part of the entire movie!

Originally Posted By basil fan Re: Goofy's new cartoon SPOILERS There were so many funny details, it's hard to name just a few. My favorite gag was when Goofy sees the REALLY big TV in the store. Also liked the packing peanuts that just wouldn't go away, the shot of Goof with his ears pointing up, the framed photos on the end table, the picture of the Leaning Tower, and so much more. the ending was just right.
