Comments

From Janet Heimer : Watching the scene where the natives are eating can really make a person hungry. So if you're on a diet, I suggest that you not look at that scene while watching this short.

From Ryan : This is one of my favorite Goofy cartoons. Goofy sits at his office, but wishes he were on a tropical island. He soon finds himself daydreaming about it. I enjoy some of the fun gags such as Goofy using a shopping cart made out of bamboo and buying turtle eggs. The natives are eating various types of foods they enjoy such as shark fin soup (which shows a shark's fin circling around the bowl)and bread from the breadtree(this gag reminds me of the bread and butterfly gag from the movie "Alice in Wonderland"). This short also reminds me of a Garfield special I have seen called "Garfield in Paradise," especially when Goofy is being taken up to the volcano to be sacrificed to the gods.

From Jacob : Just after the narrator says, "Geef knew the friendly natives wouldn't throw him into the volcano - but they did.", the Goofy holler with the quote "Aloha" can be heard. I also saw a deleted scene with a native blowing a shell saying "Come and get it!".

I have seen "Hello Aloha" and would like to
