Who is Goob?

Michael “Goob” Yagoobian, commonly referred to as “Goob,” is a character from Disney’s animated film Meet the Robinsons.

Goob (Meet the Robinsons)

Initially depicted as a young, awkward, and sleep-deprived boy, Goob is Lewis’s roommate at the orphanage.

As a child, Goob is shown to be friendly, though he frequently falls asleep due to constant exhaustion, which leads to his failure in a crucial baseball game. This game turns out to be a pivotal moment in Goob’s life; his inability to perform well, combined with his disappointment, festers into resentment.

Over the years, Goob allows his anger toward Lewis to grow, ultimately blaming him for all his misfortunes. This negative spiral transforms Goob into the villain known as the Bowler Hat Guy. He partners with a sentient hat named Doris to sabotage Lewis’s inventions, though his clumsy and often comedic nature as a villain keeps his plans from succeeding.

Goob’s character highlights themes of forgiveness, letting go, and the importance of not allowing bitterness to consume oneself. Actor Matthew Josten voices young Goob, while the adult version of the character, Bowler Hat Guy, is voiced by Stephen J. Anderson, who also directed the film.
