Fantasia Fantasia remains one of Disney's most iconic
and successful movies to date but, upon its original release, not only was it critically
panned, it was also unable to make any kind of financial profit. What is the reason behind
this? A - Parents deemed it too scary for their
children B - World War II cut off its distribution
to the European market C - Walt Disney himself hated it and pulled
it for some major tweaking Due to the film's high production costs, and
the expense of leasing theatres and installing the Fantasound equipment for the roadshow
presentations, Fantasia was unable to make a profit without being distributed in Europe.
Unfortunately, upon its initial release, the war prevented that from happening and it was
a commercial failure. Song of the South
The controversial (and now banned) Disney movie, Song of South, was based on the popular
African-American folk tales of Uncle Remus. James Baskett starred as the character in
the movie, but why couldn't he attend its premiere?
A - He was ill due to complications related to diabetes
B - He was getting married C - It was in Atlanta, which was racially
segregated by law Shockingly, the movie's main star, James Baskett,
wasn't even allowed to attend the premiere in Atlanta, Georgia, because he was black!
No hotel in the city would give him a room because of the racial segregation laws that
were in practise at the time. The Sword in the Stone
The Sword in the Stone is a Disney movie based around Arthurian legend and features characters
from said legend like King Arthur, Merlin and Sir Ector. But the character of Arthur
in the movie was weirdly inconsistent throughout. In what way was this the case?
A - A number of different artists drew him, making his appearance change throughout
B - More than one voice actor portrayed him in the movie
C - The colour of his hair kept changing Arthur was actually voiced by three different
young actors in the movie - Rickie Sorensen, Richard Reitherman and Robert Reitherman.
The changes are extremely noticeable, as Arthur's voice keeps alternating from being broken
to unbroken, sometimes in the same scene. Bedknobs and Broomsticks
In Bedknobs and Broomsticks, the character of Carrie - played by Cindy O'Callaghan - admires
a selection of dolls in the nursery of Professor Brown's house. What were some of these dolls
modelled after? A - Barbie and her friends
B - The puppets in Disney's "Small World" ride
C - Russian nesting dolls Several of the dolls that Carrie takes an
interest in, in the nursery of Professor Brown's house, are modelled after the international
puppets in the Small World ride that can be found at various Disney theme parks around
the world. Robin Hood
In Disney's 1973 animated adaptation of Robin Hood, the character of Friar Tuck - voiced
by Andy Devine - was depicted as a badger. But what animal was the character originally
intended to be depicted as? A - A pig
B - A mole C - A rooster
Originally, the character of Friar Tuck in this adaptation of Robin Hood was going to
be a pig, but it was changed to being a badger to avoid insulting certain religious sensibilities.
Pocahontas Pocahontas featured an impressive voice cast
that included the likes of Irene Bedard, Mel Gibson, Christian Bale, Billy Connolly and
Frank Welker. It also initially included an actor who died in 1994, whose role sadly had
to be scrapped as a result. Which late actor was that?
A - John Candy B - Telly Savalas
C - Peter Cushing The late, great John Candy had actually provided
a large amount of voice work for a turkey character named "Redfeather", who would have
been Pocahontas' sidekick. However, after his tragic death from a heart attack, the
role was scrapped. Toy Story
In Disney Pixar's modern classic Toy Story, the two main characters - Woody and Buzz Lightyear
- were inspired by director John Lasseter's own childhood toys. But which specific toys
from his childhood were they inspired by? A - A Jack-in-the-Box and Batman
B - A Bozo the Clown doll and Action Man C - A Casper doll and G.I. Joe
Woody and Buzz Lightyear were actually inspired by Lasseter's pull-string Casper doll and
his G.I. Joe figures. Once he grew out of his Casper, he moved onto G.I. Joe, which
was a very flashy toy at the time of his childhood. Frozen
During the early developmental stage of 2013's Frozen, the character of Elsa was actually
meant to be the villain of the movie. When that was still the case, do you know which
famous actress the design of Elsa was going to be inspired by?
A - Glenn Close B - Meryl Streep
C - Bette Midler That's right - at the stage of Frozen's development
when Elsa was still meant to be the villain of the film, the design of the character was
actually inspired by none other than Bette Midler.
Finding Dory Every major Disney and Pixar character has
their own official Facebook page, but Finding Dory's main character - the titular Dory - has
the most "likes" out of any of them, thanks to the movie's massive success. How many likes
does she actually have? A - 15 million
B - 20 million C - 25 million
With a whopping 25 million likes on her official page, Dory is the most liked character on
Facebook from any Disney or Pixar film - which is pretty impressive, considering the strong
competition she has. Beauty and the Beast
2017's live action adaptation of Beauty and the Beast will feature all the classic characters,
including Belle, the Beast and Gaston. But it will also feature some new ones. Stanley
Tucci, for example, will play a talking grand piano. What will his name be?
A - Cadenza B - Timbre
C - Overture Back in 2015, it was announced that the brilliant
Stanley Tucci would be playing Cadenza, a grand piano, and an original character created
specifically for this new live action version of Beauty and the Beast.
