Disney Trivia

 Here is some trivia to keep you entertained. Answer as many as you can in the comments!


What movie was the only animated film to ever be nominated for an Academy Award best picture?

How many "lands" are in Magic Kingdom?

What was Buzz Lightyears name originally going to be?

How many feet tall is the Hollywood Tower of Terror?

What does Epcot stand for?

What is the largest Disney World Park?

What full length animated feature has the most songs in it?

What animated feature has been released in theaters the most?

What did Walt originally want to name Mickey Mouse?

How many gallons of water does Stormalong Bay (the amazing pool at Yacht and Beach) hold?

How many miles is the monorail system?

Did you know???

Walt wanted to do a Rapunzel movie during his lifetime but they couldn't think of a good story line adaptation. It was taken off the shelf every decade until 1999 when it was story lined to be a Shrek-esq version with pop culture references and such. They decided not to do it and instead thought of a modern day concept setting in NYC. That didn't work, but what did come of it was the movie Enchanted. They finally had a story line for Rapunzel and ended up with Tangled, made the previews be nothing too girly to get the boys in the theater, and here we finally have a movie, decades in the making.

Imagineers called upon chess masters to lay out a situation during the game in where there would be no winner. If you look at the pirates playing chess in the Pirates of the Caribbean ride, you will see that board lay out. This is intentional so they will be pondering their next move for all eternity.


Hi-larious

  1. Wow, I only knew some of them and think I know a few others.
    Snow White and the seven Dwarfs

    Seven (sort of: Main St. USA, Fantasyland, Tomorrowland, Adventureland, Frontierland, Liberty Square, Mickey's Toontown Fair (now defunct))

    Don't Know- Really, I should, but I don't.

    Also Don't know- but with my love hate relationship with the ToT, I'm not surprised

    Experimental Prototype Community of Tomorrow

    Depends on what you include:
    Parking, Attractions and Backstage- Magic Kingdom
    Attractions and Backstage/Sort of Onstage but inaccessible- Animal Kingdom
    Attractions and guest walking area- Epcot (might be AK, but I'm fairly sure it's Epcot)
    Not in the running at all- Hollywood Studios

    I'm going to guess Fantasia.

    Don't Know

    Don't know (but I should, it's a really nice pool, and the only one of two that you actually have to be a guest of the hotel to use)

    I'm going to guess 16
