Following in the great tradition of his classic "How To" animated shorts of the 1940's, Goofy makes his return to the big screen in "How to Hook Up Your Home Theater". When Goofy is desperate to watch the Big Game, he heads to his local electronics store to tackle every consumer's nightmare - selecting the perfect home theater system and worse, trying to hook it all up.

How to Hook Up Your Home Theater
Haven’t seen the original how to cartoons so can’t review that part of this films point. Anyways based on a blind watch: 
Tries to unsuccessfully emulate the original cartoons. But some comedic X factor was missing. Hits even less considering how the technology they were satirizing changed a few short years after this release, to the point where many people even today, but especially starting in the near future, wont even get what this is satirizing.

Had busy day (big game and saw a musical) so needed something familiar. This went platinum in my house when I already watched what ever the main thing on the blu ray. Also Micheal Gianchino scored this!?!
