Disney Trivia (Expert Edition)

[Zawadi]

France Pavilion in Epcot? I know he is usually over there as a plant during the Flower and Garden festival too :) I'm just not sure if he appears there as a character meet and greet.....

Correct! Lumiere & Cogsworth are indeed depicted in topiary form in the gardens in front of the French Pavillion.

Who's got the next set of trivia teasers?

[badkitty]

1. Where can you find 3 horsemen and 3 hikers?

Soarin' it is. In the canyon scene you fly over 3 horsemen and climb to clear the ridge with 3 hikers on it. At the cut to this scene the music score changes slightly to include a more "western" theme of galloping hooves.


Totally have the theme in my head now! I so love the Soarin' soundtrack!

[Zawadi]

Here are some more for you...

1. Where can you find a checkered ballon with a number on it? Bounus if you can tell me the number.

2. In Minnie's house, Minnie has a book on her coffee table. What is its title?

3. How many scenes, in PoTC, does Capt. Jack Sparrow appear?

4. If you have read our recent trip report, you will know that we live in WDW's twin town. Name the town and tell me how and where within WDW it is celebrtated?

Correct again!

That just leaves question 1...

1. Where can you find a checkered balloon with a number on it? Bonus if you can tell me the number.

[Joannelet]

You may have to give a little clue with that last one...I have no idea about a checkered balloon!!!
K, so I'm going to give 2 guesses....maybe they can start a path to getting the correct answer....
Is it either from Winnie The Pooh ride? or by the CARS characters meet and greet?

I'm thinking of a much larger balloon - approx 100,000 cubic foot

[badkitty]

Yes and Yes. The plaque is in front of the building opposite the Rose and Crown.

That is really cool! :thumbsup: I'll have to go check it out!

[Savvy]

The only one I can think of is the Disneyland Resort Paris balloon with the 15 on the side to signify the park's 15th birthday.

[Zawadi]

The only one I can think of is the Disneyland Resort Paris balloon with the 15 on the side to signify the park's 15th birthday.

You've got the right type of balloon. It is a hot air balloon but not that big. I think that that balloon is more than 600,000 cubic foot.

The hot air balloon that I'm looking for can be seen with about 7 other multi-coloured hot air balloons.

Is it one of the hot air balloons in Soarin'?

EDIT: Yes! I think it is...I believe the number was....55?

[Zawadi]

[Zawadi]

Not Donald. It's a much smaller character

[badkitty]

3. How many outdoor activities/sports are shown? List them.

Driving is an outdoor activity! Good one.

I always pretend I can see my car when we are flying over the Golden Gate. :secret:

[badkitty]

Not Donald. It's a much smaller character

Ugh. I'm trying to recall the shirt in my head and the only one I can think of is it Chip or Dale?

[Zawadi]

Ugh. I'm trying to recall the shirt in my head and the only one I can think of is it Chip or Dale?

You do get a bonus mark :mickey: The "smaller avaiator" does have an image of Mickey on his shorts.

Recap of open questions:
1. The "smaller aviator" has which Disney character on his shirt?
2. What is the number of the aircraft carrier.
4. How many fighter planes fly in from the right?

[badkitty]

Woo hoo! Bonus points!

Hey Zawadi,
Here's a bid of side Soarin' trivia.

When you rode Soarin' all those times, did you catch the "blooper" in the seatbelt part of the safety spiel?
:secret:

Also, in the DL version, Patrick says "Welcome to Soarin' Over California". The WDW version is edited to remove "Over California".

[badkitty]

4. How many fighter planes fly in from the right?

I think it is three fighters.

[Zawadi]

I think it is three fighters.

A few more - how many are in the Blue Angels display team?

[Zawadi]

When you rode Soarin' all those times, did you catch the "blooper" in the seatbelt part of the safety spiel?
:secret:

In all the time that we've been on the ride neither of us had noticed it. We've just found the video on YouTube and now that we've seen the quick change artist, it really stands out. :thumbsup:

[badkitty]

AHH! It's on YouTube? I'm off to get my Soarin' fix. Up until now it has only lived in my head.

[badkitty]

A few more - how many are in the Blue Angels display team?

There are six on the team but the Diamond (four jets) perform most of the tight formations. I can't remember how many are in the Soarin' film but I thought it was only the Diamond.

[Zawadi]

4. How many fighter planes fly in from the right?
There are six on the team but the Diamond (four jets) perform most of the tight formations. I can't remember how many are in the Soarin' film but I thought it was only the Diamond.

The 6 jets fly in from the right then the left & right wing planes break formation whilst the diamond of 4 jets continues straight on.

[Zawadi]

There are still two questions outstanding for a Disney Soarin' fan to answer :mickey:

1. The "smaller aviator" has which Disney character on his shirt?

2. What is the number of the aircraft carrier.

[Zawadi]

There are still two questions outstanding for a Disney Soarin' fan to answer :mickey:

2. What is the number of the aircraft carrier.

It looks like these too many be a be too specific and hard :blush:

74 is the aircraft carrier's number

Grumpy is the Disney character on the smaller aviator's shirt.

Correct! I thought that would catch people out by thinking about more traditional bodies of water such as Seven Seas Lagoon and Crescent Lake.

[badkitty]

3) At the start of which ride can you hear somebody say "Trust me! What could go wrong?"

That would be Dinosaur! spoken by Dr. Seeker.

Would anybody like to post a set of questions please?

[Joannelet]

K! I will do it!! I hope BadKitty is back from her trip! I haven't heard from her :)

1. There are 6 rooms in Pizzafari in Animal Kingdom. What are the 6 types of rooms you can sit and eat in? It has to do with the type of animals/objects painted on each wall. But each room has a specific subject/name...

[Joannelet]

Numbers one and three are left :)

[Zawadi]

You definitely got it. I was looking for the different types of rooms based on the animals that are painted on the walls.....

The Home Room (includes animals and their homes...like turtles), Nocturnal Room-(bats, owls), Upside-Down Room-(snakes, bats, animals that can hang) Camouflage Room (snakes etc), Four Seasons Room, and Bug Room

[Joannelet]

Question number 3 is left :)

[Zawadi]

As a side issue...

Following on from Joannelet's American Adventure question here's a list of the animatronic figures:

3x Mark Twain
3x Benjamin Franklin
Frederick Douglass
Thomas Jefferson
2x soldier
George Washington + horse
Chief Joseph
6x Family
Mr Brady (photographing the family)
Susan B Anthony
Alexander Graham Bell
Charles Lindberg
Martin Luther King Jr
Cowboy
3 people on porch
2x frontiermen
John F. Kennedy
Sailor + 2 ladies

That adds up to 34 so who/what is missing?

PS: I don't know the answer :)

Just a reminder that the following question from Joannelet is still open:

3. Which Disney theme park has the largest amount of cast members?

[Joannelet]

In the great depression scene with the men sitting on the porch there are actually 4 men....not 3....
I have a link to a pic if you would like to see it. :) But I think that is where you are missing your 1 audioanimatronic from.

Zawadi I will send you the pic in a pm....

Question number 3 is still open!!!

[Zawadi]

Thanks Joannelet. After further investigation I've discovered that some of my earlier list is down right wrong and I didn't know the names of some of the depicted people :(

35 animatronic figures on 18 sets in 13 scenes


Benjamin Franklin & Mark Twain
Thomas Jefferson & Benjamin Franklin
George Washington on a horse and 2 soldiers at Valley Forge
Frederick Douglass
Missouri Family (Mother, Father, 2 sons, younger daughter and baby) with photographer Matthew Brady
Chief Joseph
Susan B Anthony, Mark Twain, Alexander Graham Bell & Andrew Carnegie
John Muir & Theodore Roosevelt

Franklin D Roosevelt
Will Rogers
Rosie, Jane and navy seaman

Now back to Joannelet's final question:

3. Which Disney theme park has the largest amount of cast members?

[Skippy]

I'm going on a limb and vote Epcot has the largest number of cast members.

[Joannelet]

I'm going on a limb and vote Epcot has the largest number of cast members.

Nope not Epcot. Just remember I used the term DISNEY theme park so it doesn't necessarily have to be a WDW one :)

[Zawadi]

I was also thinking Epcot, but seeing as that's not the answer then I'll try Disneyland Paris which I believe has around 14,000 CM's.
We're off to DLP for a short break in 2 weeks time and I don't intend to count them all ;)

LOL I expect you to count them all :)
You are correct!!!
The answer was shocking to me too but nope it is Disneyland Paris!!! :)

Here are the rundowns of cast member numbers per park :)
Disneyland - 8,000
Disneyland Paris - 14,000
Disney's Hollywood Studios - 2,800 to 4,500
Epcot - 5,000 to 7,000
Magic Kingdom - 6,000 to 8,000
Pleasure Island - 300
WDW Property-wide - 65,000
Tokyo Disneyland - 6,000
Typhoon Lagoon - 380

Time for someone else to post some questions!! :)

[Zawadi]

Here's a mixed bag of teasers for you...

1) Gene Kelly is shown dancing in front of which establishment within the Great Movie Ride?

2) What is "opening next season"?

3) I've previously asked how many dogs appear in the Pirates of the Carribbean ride but how many cats are there?

4) Who is Judy and what is her IQ?

5) A former Miss America appeared in which attraction?

Welcome back and we've missed you too!

"Stupid" Judy is correct.

I'm currently in internet limbo as an ISP transfer has failed and left me without internet at home. Therefore I can only mark answers during UK office hours.

Questions 3 & 5 are still open

[badkitty]

Hi fellow trivia-masters. While Zawadi is dealing with his internet issues, he asked I post a short list of questions until he can join again. We will put Zawadi's list on hold for the moment.

1. What colors are in the flag for Camp Minnie Mickey? Extra points if you can describe the flag.

2. How many times does Jack Sparrow appear in POC? Can you name the scenes?

3. What are the sections called in the Festival of the Lion King?

One popping out of the barrel in the auction scene, one of him standing on the side of a building trying not to get caught,
and at the end celebrating with all his treasures.

[Joannelet]

3. What are the sections called in the Festival of the Lion King?

Warthog, elephant, giraffe and lion

[badkitty]

Correct! That is what I counted as well.

[badkitty]

Warthog, elephant, giraffe and lion

Right again! Question #1 is still open...

[Zawadi]

Our internet connection is up and running again :D

1. What colors are in the flag for Camp Minnie Mickey? Extra points if you can describe the flag.

Badkitty, you've got me on this one :(

[badkitty]

Welcome back Zawadi! I really enjoyed your trip reports.

Any takers on question #1 from my list? The flag is located on the right as you make the turn to cross the bridge towards FOTLK and the trails. There are two colors on the flag.

[Joannelet]

I have never seen this flag..it's driving me nuts! :)

[Disney Hungarian]

1. What colors are in the flag for Camp Minnie Mickey? Extra points if you can describe the flag.

The flag pole is located behind the well, and the colors are green, yellow and red?

[badkitty]

The flag pole is located behind the well, and the colors are green, yellow and red?

Way to go Disney Hungarian! :thumbsup: You rock!

I thought it was just green and a yellow-gold but you might be right about the red. The design looks like a rising or setting sun.

Shall we go back and finish Zawadi's list?

[Zawadi]

Thanks for stepping in badkitty :)

There were two questions remaining:

3) I've previously asked how many dogs appear in the Pirates of the Carribbean ride but how many cats are there? I'm going to kill this question as it is too specific (unless anybody wants to have a go that is)

Which leaves...
5) A former Miss America appeared in which attraction?

You are most welcome! Hakuna Matata!
I'll take a chance with #3 and say three with ol' Bill?

[Zawadi]

I'll take a chance with #3 and say three with ol' Bill?

You may well be right. We thought we counted 2, but have lost the piece of paper where we noted their locations.

Question 5 is still open.
5) A former Miss America appeared in which attraction?

[badkitty]

You may well be right. We thought we counted 2, but have lost the piece of paper where we noted their locations.

Question 5 is still open.
5) A former Miss America appeared in which attraction?

You could be right. I know it is at least two.

I'm sure this isn't the answer your looking for for #5 but I thought it was an interesting tidbit. When I was little and HM first opened at Disneyland, I remember hearing that the Ghostess (AKA [unoffically] Little Leota) was played by Lee Meriwether (Miss California & Miss America, 1955).All the publications surrounding HM indicate that Leota Toombs is the actual face/voice of the Ghostess. From what I have read, Leota was also called Lee so that must be where the rumor started. I think the two women resemble each other quite a bit. Spooky. :ghost:

A very nice tidbit :) but not what I was after :(

What I'm after is at WDW and Miss America appeared in the attraction during the 1990s

[badkitty]

I think you might have stumped us Zawadi. :confused: How about another hint?

[Zawadi]

I think you might have stumped us Zawadi. :confused: How about another hint?

Here's your requested hint...

The Miss America in question was the first Miss Florida (from Jacksonville) to win the title of Miss America.

[badkitty]

Here's your requested hint...

The Miss America in question was the first Miss Florida (from Jacksonville) to win the title of Miss America.

Okay, this one was hard Zawadi!

Here goes: Leanza Cornett, first Ariel in the Voyage of the Little Mermaid at Disney/MGM Studios in 1991 before winning Miss Winter Park and Miss Florida in 1992 and Miss America in 1993.

This is great trivia! :thumbsup: How did you come across it?

[Zawadi]

A very full and correct answer badkitty :thumbsup:

This piece of trivia came from one of the Disney Trivia books that I've purchased over the last 10 years or so.

Who's up for posting the next set of questions?

[Zawadi]

I know that I asked who's up for posting the next set of questions. However, last night I watched a documentary about Pixar and had to ask this trivia before I forgot it ;)

1. What is the code to summons the Child Contamination Unit?

2. What is the license plate number for the car owned by Andy's family in the first Toy Story?

3. Why is the answer to question 2 of significance to Pixar?

4. What was the name of Syndrome's first alter-ego?

5. During the announcement made by the captain of the Axiom, how many days had they been travelling?

6. Which actor has voiced a character in every Pixar animation?

[badkitty]

6. Which actor has voiced a character in every Pixar animation?

That would be John Ratzenberger! He has played principle parts like Hamm in Toy Story to bit parts like the Abominable Snowman in Monster's Inc. It is a game in my family to see what who can pick out John's voice first.

[Zawadi]

:bump:

Any takers for this round of questions? :mickey:

[badkitty]

2. What is the license plate number for the car owned by Andy's family in the first Toy Story?

3. Why is the answer to question 2 of significance to Pixar?



Here goes #2 and #3:

A113 - it is the room # of an animation/graphic art classroom at CalArts (California Institute of the Arts) in Valencia, CA used by John Lasseter. (I have a friend who graduated with a music degree from there.) It is an "Easter Egg" added to animated films by alumni of CalArts and is present in every Pixar film. (For example, the lab rat's ear tag in Ratatouille, the directive never to return to Earth in Wall-E, the number on the freight train in Cars, etc.)

I can't help myself and have to provided extended trivia:
The school was originally founded/created by Walt Disney in the 60's by merging the Chouinard Art Institute (founded 1921) and the Los Angeles Conservatory of Music (founded 1883).

:congrats:
Your explanation has saved me a lot of typing. The only thing that I can add is that A113 appears in UP as the number of the court room that Carl Fredricksen goes to after he hits a worker to protect his mailbox.

Questions 1, 4 & 5 remaining...

1. What is the code to summons the Child Contamination Unit?

4. What was the name of Syndrome's first alter-ego?

23-19 is the Monster Inc code to summons the CCU whenever one of the Monsters came back from Scream duty with a child's item attached.


4. What was the name of Syndrome's first alter-ego?

Incrediboy


5. During the announcement made by the captain of the Axiom, how many days had they been travelling?

Who would like to post some WDW related questions?

[badkitty]

Thanks for posting the answers, Zawadi.

How about these questions dedicated to the Imagineers?

1. What was the former name of WDI (Walt Disney Imagineering) and what did it stand for?
2. Where is the main headquarters of WDI located?
3. What classic DLR attraction was not included in the plans for WDW but was later added due to popular demand?
4. Who was the first woman hired to be an Imagineer?
5. Who did Walt ask to sketch the original design for Disneyland that Roy would present to the bankers?

[Zawadi]

Thanks for the questions badkitty.

Questions are only easy if you know the answers. I don't therefore they're not :D

4. Who was the first woman hired to be an Imagineer?

I'll have a go at Harriet Burns nee Tapp (August 20, 1928 – July 25, 2008). She started working at Disney Studios in 1955.

[badkitty]

I'll have a go at Harriet Burns nee Tapp (August 20, 1928 – July 25, 2008). She started working at Disney Studios in 1955.

Correct! :thumbsup: Harriet is one of the Disney Legends and worked on many projects including the Enchanted Tiki Room. Her daughter, Pam Burns-Clair, wrote a booked called: Walt Disney's First Lady of Imagineering Harriet Burns. As a side note, I worked with a designer (and former Imagineer) who was a good friend of Ms. Burns.

[Zawadi]

1. What was the former name of WDI (Walt Disney Imagineering) and what did it stand for?

Walter Elias Disney (WED) Engineering. Renamed to WDI on 20 Feb 1986

[Zawadi]

5. Who did Walt ask to sketch the original design for Disneyland that Roy would present to the bankers?

I'm not sure about this but I'll try Peter Ellenshaw

[badkitty]

1. What was the former name of WDI (Walt Disney Imagineering) and what did it stand for?

Walter Elias Disney (WED) Engineering. Renamed to WDI on 20 Feb 1986

Correct! :thumbsup: Walt used his initials for the company.

[Zawadi]

2. Where is the main headquarters of WDI located?

Glendale, California

[badkitty]

5. Who did Walt ask to sketch the original design for Disneyland that Roy would present to the bankers?

Sorry, it wasn't Peter Ellenshaw. Good guess though since Mr. Ellenshaw is a Disney Legend and worked on many Disney films.

[badkitty]

2. Where is the main headquarters of WDI located?

Glendale, California

Yep! You are knocking these out, Zawadi. :mickey:

Questions #3 and #5 remain.

[Zawadi]

I'm now stuck and will have to resort to a certain internet search engine :)

[badkitty]

I'm now stuck and will have to resort to a certain internet search engine :)

HA! You got the others correct without help? I'm impressed. :D

[BugeyedMuggy]

Ok, I'm new to this and just guessing, but I will say the the ride not included in the plans was "Pirates of the Carribean" because it goes under the train tracks.
I hope I didn't just jump into the old saying, "Better to be thought a fool than to (type on your keyboard) and remove all doubt."

[Zawadi]

Welcome to BugeyedMuggy. As for your "fool" quote - there's no such thing as a bad answer. This is just fun and a chance to learn about Disney

5. Who did Walt ask to sketch the original design for Disneyland that Roy would present to the bankers?

Second attempt at this: Herbert D Ryman

[badkitty]

Welcome BugeyedMuggy! Great answer. You are correct on the attraction! :thumbsup:

It was Pirates of the Carribean but I heard the reason was different than what you stated. The Imagineers thought the New Orleans theme wouldn't be as appreciated in FL as it was in CA so they did not include it in the orginal plans. After the MK opened, guests were constantly asking where POTC was so the Imagineers decided to add it.

[badkitty]

5. Who did Walt ask to sketch the original design for Disneyland that Roy would present to the bankers?

Second attempt at this: Herbert D Ryman

You got it Zawadi! :thumbsup:

The story goes that Walt approached Mr. Ryman, calling him Herbie, and asked him to draw the design for Disneyland. Mr. Ryman replied he didn't know what to draw and Walt said, "I'll tell you." Walt stood over Herb's shoulder for hours and the design was created for Roy to take to the bankers.

[badkitty]

Well that is all of mine. Great job! :mickey:

Anyone want to post a new set?

[Zawadi]

Here's some more:

Within Epcot, where & how is Apollo 11 remembered?
What debuted on 01 October 1991?
Where on WDW Property would you find the Village Pizza Parlor?
The Hall of Flags displays how many flags?
Which resort pool contains around 231,610 gallons of water?

[badkitty]

As you have said Zawadi, they are only easy if you know the answers!




The Hall of Flags displays how many flags?


I remember the host saying there are 44 flags representing the flags that have flown at different times in the history of the United States.

[Zawadi]

[caryrae]

For the Apollo 11 one, not sure if it's right, but I think I remember seeing a part in Spaceship Earth where one of the TV's was showing the moon landing in a scene.

[Zawadi]

For the Apollo 11 one, not sure if it's right, but I think I remember seeing a part in Spaceship Earth where one of the TV's was showing the moon landing in a scene.

A very good guess. I'm not sure which Apollo mission was shown but unfortunately it's not what I was after. :(

[badkitty]

A very good guess. I'm not sure which Apollo mission was shown but unfortunately it's not what I was after. :(

I think the answer you are looking for is in "The American Adventure? " In the montage of American accomplishments to the music of the theme song Golden Dreams.

I think the scene in Spaceship Earth is the Apollo 11 landing. I remember hearing "The Engle has landed" and "That's one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind". I'll have to check it out the next time I'm there!

[badkitty]

What debuted on 01 October 1991?


Are you looking for SpectroMagic?

IMHO, I wish the powers-that-be would bring back SpectroMagic to the MK and take MSEP back to California where it started. I miss MSEP and MK doesn't seem the same without SpectroMagic.

[Zawadi]

I think the scene in Spaceship Earth is the Apollo 11 landing. I remember hearing "The Engle has landed" and "That's one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind". I'll have to check it out the next time I'm there!

It make sense that Apollo11's landing is shown in Spaceship Earth.

It's amazing that when you have a specific answer in mind the alternative answers that Disney fans can come up with :mickey:

The location that I had in mind is in Future World East and marks the event without showing Apollo11

I know! Such fun!!


The location that I had in mind is in Future World East and marks the event without showing Apollo11

Oh! How about the photo of the Apollo 11 astronauts on the wall in the queue for Mission: Space?

[akaDisneyDreamer]

I am so confused! The answer to one of the trivia questions states that Spash Mountain opened up in 1992. I went to WDW in 1980 and was sure I rode Splash Mountain. I did not return to WDW until 2006, so I could not have possibly remembered wrong. I told my girls all about Spash Mountain, I knew the story and I told them how much I loved that ride and it was my favorite! (I also remember loving Big Thunder Mountain and It's a Small World from that trip.) How can this be? Was it called something else in 1980? Was it shut down and reopened in 1992? It would have been impossible for me to know and remember a ride that didn't exist and this is driving me crazy. I even googled it because I thought it must be a typo on Intercot! Please, I hope someone out there remembers something ... :confused:

[caryrae]

I am so confused! The answer to one of the trivia questions states that Spash Mountain opened up in 1992. I went to WDW in 1980 and was sure I rode Splash Mountain. :confused:

I found this on the internet "On October 2,1992 Splash Mountain opened in Frontierland at the Magic Kingdom in Walt Disney World."

Splash Mountain wasn't even open until 1989 at Disneyland.

[akaDisneyDreamer]

I know ... that's what I found too, but I swear I remember the ride from the early 80's (pretty sure it was actually 1980). I absolutely did not go in 1992.

[caryrae]

Strange, I was looking at a list of all MK attractions (old and new) and can't find anything that would have been close to splash mountain.:confused:

[akaDisneyDreamer]

I know. You can't know how utterly confused I am right now. The first time I ever went was in 1980. My second trip was in 2006. My youngest daughter was 2 in 1992. In 2006 as we planned our trip, I told my daughters all about Spash Mountain and how great it was! I told them about the story that was told as you go through the ride ... how could I have known all about this? How could I have been so sure it was my favorite ride if it wasn't even there when I went?

[Zawadi]

Oh! How about the photo of the Apollo 11 astronauts on the wall in the queue for Mission: Space?

"queue" - How very English of you :D

I'll give you Mission Space. Again you have given an answer different to what I was expecting...

Outside Mission Space there is a replica of the moon with a red marker on it. The red marker, in the Sea of Tranquility, represents the location where Apollo11 landed.

[Zawadi]

That just leaves the following questions...

2) What debuted, in Epcot, on 01 October 1991?

3) Where on WDW Property would you find the Village Pizza Parlor?


Re: comments on Splash Mountain...

Splash Mountain's construction started in the early 1990s and required a total rework of Frontierland including the old railway station being demolished. WDW's Spash Mountain opened July 17, 1992 (3 years after the one in Disneyland)

[akaDisneyDreamer]

I've decided that either I rode Splash Mountain in a past life (lol!) or dreamed of it (saw the future?) I'm completely flabbergasted over this. I don't know how I knew so much about it that I actually told my daughters it was my favorite ride and that it told the story of Br'er Rabbit ... ? (I did ride a similar log ride at 6 Flags in the late 70's or early 80's as well, but it didn't tell any stories!) Anyway, I'm going to let it go now ... thanks for all the help.

Back to the remaining trivia questions ... you've got me stummped! I can't even find the answers on google!

[Zawadi]

I think that I'll have to come clean about the Village Pizza Parlor. :blush:

This is not a food outlet as such. It is something that you could easily walk past as it is simply a New York shop front in Streets of America

[Zawadi]

That just leaves...

2) What debuted, in Epcot, on 01 October 1991?

Clue: This event had Mickey flying in a paraplane.

[badkitty]

I think that I'll have to come clean about the Village Pizza Parlor. :blush:

OH! That would be "Surprise in the Skies". I would never have remembered that without the Mickey in an paraplane hint. I didn't realize it debuted on the same day as SpectroMagic. I guess it makes since because that was the 20th Anniversary of WDW!

I found a couple of photos on the web. It looked really good. I liked the balloon of Goofy as a viking. This show was quoted as being the biggest daytime firework display.

I can remember one but not sure his name all I remember is he is from one of the CSI shows. I am sure the other one I will say "That's Right".

[Zawadi]

I can remember one but not sure his name all I remember is he is from one of the CSI shows. I am sure the other one I will say "That's Right".

When I read this I realised who you meant. You were referring to David Hodges, from CSI (Las Vegas), played by actor Wallace Langham. There's a CSI trend at Disney with Gary Sinise, CSI NY, appearing in Mission Space.

The other actor is Phylicia Rashad who played Clair Huxtable on The Cosby Show.

[Joannelet]

omg I've been missing all these trivia questions!!!!!

The replica was cast in 1976 in honor of the country's 200th birthday?

[Zawadi]

The replica was cast in 1976 in honor of the country's 200th birthday?

:congrats:

In 1976, 50 replicas were cast and molded in honor of our country’s 200th birthday. Each state would receive one and place it in a spot of their choice. However, the state of Pennsylvania had a problem. They already had the original Liberty Bell in Philadelphia. Why would they want a replica? Years later, Walt Disney World realized Pennsylvania had the replica and asked if they could have it for Liberty Square. Pennsylvania agreed and on July 4th, 1989 the replica Liberty Bell was hoisted and lowered into its permanent spot inside Liberty Square at the Magic Kingdom where it still sits today. Florida remains the only state with two of the 50 replica Liberty Bells.

A great set of questions!

1. Prior to Disney buses having destination signs they had colored flags. What color was the bus between Ft. Wilderness and the TTC?

Navy

[squad51]

1. close enough. The flag to me looks royal blue bu that is really splitting hairs

[Zawadi]

2. Who designed the first Disney monorail?

Bob Gurr designed the Mk-I system in Disneyland in 1957 after Walt Disney's interest was aroused by a protoype developed by the German company Alweg.

WDW started with the Mk-IV system in 1971.

[squad51]

# 2 is correct

3-5 still waiting to be answered. Did I make them too hard?

[badkitty]

# 2 is correct

3-5 still waiting to be answered. Did I make them too hard?

You made an excellent list. :thumbsup:
They should be hard. This is the "expert edition" after all!

[badkitty]

Ok here we go -

3. Who introduces us to EPCOT in the 1980 television special "One Man's Dream"?

Good luck:mickey:

I think I remember this to be Dick Van Dyke.

I can't seem to find my copy of the show. Arrgh. (I did find some other specials though and have been enjoying watching the Osmonds in Disneyland for the opening of the Haunted Mansion. Too fun!)

[Zawadi]

Did I make them too hard?


You made an excellent list. :thumbsup:

Couldn't agree more with badkitty :thumbsup:

[Zawadi]

4. Who dedicated the Contemporary Resort in 1971?

Bob Hope

Question 3 is incorrect. Dick Van Dyke did have a musical role in the show but was not the star who introduced us to EPCOT. (Hint; he sang whistle while you work in the show.)

Question 4 is correct. Bob Hope made a grand entrance to the ceremony via the monorail.

3 & 5 are still in play.

[badkitty]

Question 3 is incorrect. Dick Van Dyke did have a musical role in the show but was not the star who introduced us to EPCOT. (Hint; he sang whistle while you work in the show.)


Is it Michael Landon? That is the only other host I can remember but I sure don't remember him singing Whistle While You Work. I need to find that copy. (It was one of the first things my mom taped on her brand new VCR - the one with the dials!)

[squad51]

Yes the answer is Michael Landon. This is avail. on youtube.

Question 5 still out there.

When did Blast II - Shockwave debut at the American Gardens Theater in EPCOT?
