Goofy Random Fact

Walt Disney did not like Goofy cartoons!

Goofy is a funny animal cartoon character created back in 1932 at Walt Disney productions.Goofy is a close friend of Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck and is one of Disney’s most popular characters. He is normally characterized as extremely clumsy and having little intelligence, yet this interpretation isn’t always definitive since Goofy is sometimes shown as intuitive and clever.

Goofy debuted in animated cartoons in 1932. He was used extensively as part of a comedy trio with Mickey and Donald. Just before the 1940s, Goofy was given his own series of shorts which were popular during the 1940s and early 50s.

However, Goofy wasn’t Walt Disney’s favorite cartoon. In fact, he disliked the Goofy cartoons and only continued the series to make-work for his animators!I bet he never expected that Goofy was going to become such a big hit!

Babe

Can you guess how many pigs were used for the movie Babe?

If you’re too young to remember, Babe was a movie about a pig raised by sheepdogs who learns to herd sheep. Like any movie that involves real animals, multiple animals were required for filming. Because the pigs kept growing too fast, a total of 48 real Yorkshire pigs were used during the production of the movie. 

One animatronic double was also used at some points. Each pig had a toupee and eyelashes added by a makeup artist. Because there were so many animals used and so many different kinds used, 56 animal trainers were on set, handling a total of nearly 1000 animals. 

Why so many animals? Much of them were young and kept growing too fast because of the productions schedule. Pre-production lasted eight months, shooting took six months, and post-production took twelve months.
