The Ultimate Disney Trivia Quiz – Magic Behind the Movies

Disney has shaped childhoods for nearly a century. Walt Disney and his brother Roy founded their studio in 1923, and in 1928 Mickey Mouse appeared in Steamboat Willie, one of the first cartoons with synchronized sound. Walt himself voiced Mickey for many years.

In 1937 Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs proved that full-length animated films could be a success. Classics such as Pinocchio and Cinderella followed, and the 1990s brought a new golden age with Aladdin and The Lion King, whose villain Scar is one of Disney's most famous.

Modern Disney includes Pixar, the studio behind Toy Story and Ratatouille, as well as hits such as Frozen, with its lovable snowman Olaf, and Moana, with the silly rooster Heihei. Animators love hiding details, from Hidden Mickeys to the code A113, which refers to a classroom at the California Institute of the Arts.

Disneyland opened in Anaheim, California, in 1955, and Disney parks now welcome millions of visitors around the world every year.

Disney also tells stories from many cultures, from Mulan in China and Moana in Polynesia to Coco in Mexico and Encanto in Colombia. Each film involves years of research, music writing and animation by large teams of artists.

A single feature film can include hundreds of thousands of drawings or computer frames.
