Disney Movies Quiz – Nearly a Century of Animation

Walt Disney Animation Studios has been making feature films since 1937, and its movies have become part of growing up for children all over the world. Snow White proved that audiences would sit through a full-length cartoon. Pinocchio, Fantasia, Dumbo and Bambi followed within a few years, and together they set the standard for hand-drawn animation.

After a quieter period in the 1970s and early 1980s, the studio came roaring back with what fans call the Disney Renaissance. The Little Mermaid, Beauty and the Beast, Aladdin and The Lion King turned animated films into Broadway-style musicals and became some of the biggest hits of the 1990s.

The modern era has brought computer animation and a new wave of stories. Tangled, Frozen, Big Hero 6, Zootopia, Moana and Encanto have broadened the settings, from a Pacific island to a mountain town in Colombia, while keeping the songs, humor and heart that audiences expect.

This quiz moves through all three eras. Some questions are about famous characters and songs, while others test details like the city in Big Hero 6 or the Oscar first earned by Beauty and the Beast.

Disney films also have a habit of returning in new forms. Many classics have been remade as live-action films, from The Jungle Book and Aladdin to The Lion King, and several have been turned into stage musicals that still run on Broadway and in London's West End.
