Road Trips, Water Rides, and the Goofy Movie with Christopher from Failed Imagineer

What if A Goofy Movie became a full-blown theme park experience?This week on ReDesigning Disney, I’m joined by visual artist and designer Christopher Meakin, the creative mind behind Failed Imagineer. Together, we revisit A Goofy Movie and pitch bold new park ideas inspired by Max and Goofy’s chaotic road trip—from a hybrid car-to-log-flume water ride to roadside Americana attractions straight out of Lester’s Possum Park.We talk father-son dynamics, Disney Easter eggs, the magic of practical theming, and why some movies should never get a remake. It’s a nostalgic, design-forward episode packed with water ride advocacy, punk-rock Imagineering energy, and lots of love for animatronics.Find Margaret on....: instagram: @⁠⁠⁠⁠failedimagineerFind ReDesigning Disney on....: instagram: @redesigning.disneytiktok: @redesigningdisney email: [email protected]
