(Atlanta, S04E08)
• "To give you a little context, when A Goofy Movie came out, Black masculinity in the media was in a really weird place. So on one hand, you've got men doing, kind of 'faux queer' comedy, and on the other end of the spectrum, you've got these hypermasculine portrayals. And, by contrast, Goofy is a nuanced portrayal of a Black man whose priority is his family." (Atlanta, S04E08)
• "At one point, he said he didn't want Mickey in the movie. And, um, I kept saying, 'But it's Disney. What are you talking about?' I can remember Thomas ranting in his office, 'They're trying to make me put this white boy in my movie.'" (Atlanta, S04E08)

• "It was the Bigfoot stuff that put him over the edge."
  "They'd added it without his knowledge. He'd wanted Goofy and Max to wander into a thrift store and discover Huey Newton's rattan throne. And once they sat in it, Max would finally understand what Goofy had been fighting to make him understand all along. Instead, they took out the thrift store and the throne and put in that Bigfoot bit. It's like they were saying, 'What you were after, your message, it's a fantasy as elusive and unreal as Bigfoot.'"
