If Max acted aloof, it was because he was a young man about to experience the world on his own. As stated earlier, Max showed great restraint toward his father in the beginning of the movie. While Goofy was understandably going through Empty Nest Syndrome, he still needs to not lay the burden on Max to be there for him. The amnesia, in the end, is shared by both. After a heartwarming dialogue between the two, Max ruins the moment suddenly taking a hurried tone while he says: "But now it's over, and it's time for everyone to live their own life." making the viewer think -again- that he doesn't give a shit about Hidden Depths and he's just concerned to being as far as possible from his father. Let's skip all what happens at university because there, well, yeah, it's pretty much everything done by Goofy, and go to the final scene. Also, come on, did he really expect a videogame as a present for an occasion so solemn like the start of his college life?! Clearly, he's still 13 in his own mind. It makes quite clear what Max thinks is more important. But no, he even smiles wider and wider at the idea of "not coming back home so soon"! That's mean! I could think it's a "misunderstanding gag", if some moments earlier I wouldn't have hearded Max saying Goofy is "well-meaning but embarassing" (in this order). Quite a good point, still a couple of facts hint that neither Max is fully innocent: in the entire beginning scene, he's apparently oblivious to his father's melanchony, even if, at his current age, and especially after the events of the prior movie, he should be mature enough to acknowledge Goofy's feeling.Goofy - I know that, I just want to be a part of it.) and Max is rightly upset about that. Max didn't forget the lessons he learned in the first movie (he is much more patient and understanding with his father and tries to talk to him about any problems) Goofy did (First movie: Max. Goofy immediately forgets the whole conversation and begins babying Max and interfering heavily in his college life. He is then quite understandably upset at Goofy's arrival at college, mostly how he arrived, but once he has a chance to listen to the situation he seems entirely reasonable about the whole thing and gets his father to agree to some ground rules about respecting his independence. Goofy's Aesop Amnesia caused the trouble in the sequel, not Max'sThe movie begins with Max stating that Goofy is embarrassing but well meaning and is overall much more accepting and considerate to Goofy than in the first movie but is still excited to go out and start carving his own path in life. So it can be surmised that Max and Roxanne dated for a while, broke up some time before college, but decided to give their relationship another shot. AEGM came out in 2000, the episode aired in 2002). Actually, the episode of "House of Mouse" where Roxanne appears, "Max's Embarrassing Date," is meant to take place AFTER An Extremely Goofy Movie (it makes sense.Max is actually visibly attracted to many beautiful women in the entire film, throwing out the possibility of him and Roxanne dating out the window. I mean, obviously if they were still dating, there's no reason why Max would be flirting with the attractive cashier midway through the movie. It would be nice for Disney to do a friendship like that without pairing everyone with just one love interest. I'd like to think that maybe they did date for a while in high school, realized they weren't meant for each other, but remained friends anyway and still hang out during breaks from college.I submit that Max(, Donald's nephew and anyone under the proper age grade) has some involuntary time travel powers considering how they handle them throughout the various universes.

He's graduated and is now a young adult, hence why he has a job as the door-greeter of the House of Mouse. That's because Max is still in high school in House of Mouse.
