After 128 characters, we're finally down to the final 2. 72 hours to vote, and We'll see who will be the ultimate Disney Character
Goofy
Appeared in: Various shorts, Goof Troop, various other Disney shows/movies
Pro/Anti: Protagonist
VA: Pinto Colvig (1932–1938, 1943-1967 (his death))
George Johnson (1939–1943)
Hal Smith (Mickey's Christmas Carol, 1983)
Tony Pope (Sport Goofy in Soccermania, 1987 and Who Framed Roger Rabbit, 1988 )
Will Ryan (DTV Valentine, 1986 and Down and Out with Donald Duck, 1987)
Bill Farmer (1986–present)
Occupation: Various
Fun Fact: Goofy first appeared in Mickey's Revue, first released on May 25, 1932. Directed by Wilfred Jackson this short movie features Mickey Mouse, Minnie Mouse, Horace Horsecollar and Clarabelle Cow performing another song and dance show. Mickey and his gang's animated shorts by this point routinely featured song and dance numbers. It begins as a typical Mickey cartoon of the time, but what would set this short apart from all that had come before was the appearance of a new character, whose behavior served as a running gag. Dippy Dawg, as he was named by Disney artists (Frank Webb), was a member of the audience. He constantly irritated his fellow spectators by noisily crunching peanuts and laughing loudly, till two of those fellow spectators knocked him out with their mallets (and then did the same exact laugh as he did). This early version of Goofy had other differences with the later and more developed ones besides the name. He was an old man with a white beard, a puffy tail and no trousers, shorts, or undergarments. But the short introduced Goofy's distinct laughter. This laughter was provided by Pinto Colvig. A considerably younger Dippy Dawg then appeared in The Whoopee Party, first released on September 17, 1932, as a party guest and a friend of Mickey and his gang. Dippy Dawg made a total of four appearances in 1932 and two more in 1933, but most of them were mere cameos. But by his seventh appearance, in Orphan's Benefit first released on August 11, 1934, he gained the new name "Goofy" and became a regular member of the gang along with new additions Donald Duck and Clara Cluck.
