I saw this animated short on Gizmodo this morning. I’ve never seen a cartoon take on tech in such a classic, wholesome way. I hope Disney does more stuff like this. It made my day.

UPDATE: It looks like the video has been taken down from YouTube. If anyone has a different link, let me know!

   I remember seeing prior to seeing a Disney movie (can’t recall which one either) in the theater. Glad it is finally online!

   The second I saw this I got all excited only to be let down after seeing that the link had been pulled.

   A little digging around and I think I found a source. Cali, you’ve got mail.

    I like the name of the store Goofy goes to. Shiny Stuff. Fits right in with GeekBrief.

    A little on-topic self promotion! We interviewed some of the creators before this was released. Some fun stuff and a few hints about upcoming shorts:

    Also you can buy it on iTunes:

    I’m pretty sure it wasn’t Bee Movie since it wasn’t Disney.

    I too saw this in theaters, and I was wholeheartedly disappointed when I got home and couldn’t find it on youtube. Glad to see it resurfacing, albeit much later.

    Can anyone confirm about it being before National Treasure 2? I’m curious now.

    Oh, wait. I think I’m thinking of a different one. I think I did see it before NT2.

    Haha, I forgot how funny Goof can be. Ah the flashbacks..

    Did anyone else nod their heads when Goofy was trying to open the cable packaging? I have never NEVER EVER had cables that I didn’t have to cut out of the packaging if I bought them from a brick Retailer
