Re: question 8. Lady & the Tramp is also about dogs.

Thank you!!! I don't know where my mind was! I've already corrected them. Hahaha!

Do you also consider The Fox and the Hound?

[Pokeholic_Prince]

Okay I have a few questions:

8 ) How many movies are blatantly set in the United States? Can you name them all?
9) Which movie was almost the first to get a screenplay for an animated film, but didn't?

Do you also consider The Fox and the Hound?

You know, I was thinking about that, but I stuck with the ones that are completely centered around dogs. In Fox and the Hound the protagonist is Tod, a fox with Copper (the hound) being more of a supporting character.

Excellent! Let's see who can answer those. This would be Game 3!

[Wonderlicious]

This was fun!

But for question 20, any film that opens with a live-action storybook "incorporates live-action". That includes even the first film, Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. Pinocchio is the only one I can think of that has an animated storybook instead of a live-action one.

Well, technically you're right, but I was actually just referring to actual footage of live action actors and landscapes, not the opening sequences of several films.

Not to mention that they were almost always animated in stop-motion. Unless, of course, those books really did open and close themselves.

Fantasia was missing for Number 20, though.

Thank you! Correction made. I had also omitted Fantasia 2000!

I think Dumbo & Lady and the Tramp are "blatantly" set in the USA.
One could argue Bambi is set in an American forest, but I guess it could also be Canadian.

[toonaspie]

You know, I was thinking about that, but I stuck with the ones that are completely centered around dogs. In Fox and the Hound the protagonist is Tod, a fox with Copper (the hound) being more of a supporting character.

By that logic, I wouldn't count Oliver and Company. Even though the majority of the supporting characters in the film were dogs, the main character of the film was a kitten.

For #4, Black Cauldron, Great Mouse Detective and The Little Mermaid were all done with the Xerox process. And for #7, couldn't Emperor's New Groove count too, since it takes place in Incan Peru?

[Wonderlicious]

I'll create some even harder questions, and I won't give any answers until anyone decides to take a shot themselves.

1. Give the real names of the following Fantasia characters:
(a) The smallest mushroom from "The Nutcracker Suite"
(b) The lead ostrich from "Dance of the Hours"
(c) The lead alligator from "Dance of the Hours"
(d) The lead hippo from "Dance of the Hours"
(e) The black baby flying horse from "The Pastoral Symphony"
(f) Bacchus' donkey from "The Pastoral Symphony"

2. Name the Disney animated features (excluding the 1943-9 package features) adapted from a British source material.

3. Which two Disney live-action features were remade as animated features?

4. Which Disney animated features - including package films - include a storybook framing device?

5. Which Disney animated features featured background work by Eyvind Earle?

ANSWERS: 1. The respective Fantasia characters are called:
(a) Hop Lo
(b) Madame Upanova
(c) Ben Ali-Gator
(d) Hyacinth
(e) Peter Pegasus
(f) Jacchus

2. By this, I mean films whose original source material was written by a British author, or originated from a British folk source. The films are: Alice in Wonderland, Peter Pan, 101 Dalmatians, The Sword in the Stone, The Jungle Book, Robin Hood, The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh, The Rescuers, Oliver and Company (Oliver Twist), The Rescuers Down Under, Treasure Planet (Treasure Island), Chicken Little (numerous "Sky is Falling" folk stories), Winnie the Pooh.

3. I did indeed mean Disney live-action features re-made as animated features. Or rather, in this case, animated features based on previously existing stories that had previously been made as live-action Disney films. Robin Hood (1973) had previously been adapted by Disney in 1952's The Story of Robin Hood. Long before Treasure Planet (2002) hit screens, the Disney studios' first completely live-action feature was a more traditional adaptation of Treasure Island (1950).

4. Animated features using storybooks as openers and frame devices are: Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, Pinocchio, "Johnny Appleseed" in Melody Time, The Adventures of Ichabod and Mr Toad, Cinderella, Sleeping Beauty, The Sword in the Stone, The Jungle Book, Robin Hood, The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh, Winnie the Pooh.

5. Eyvind Earle first painted backgrounds for Peter Pan and Lady and the Tramp prior to his most famous work on Sleeping Beauty.

[RyGuy]

9.) What were the two animated features completely set in a universe of anthromorphic animal characters?

9. Robin Hood and Chicken Little

Would you also count The Great Mouse Detective? Or is that one disqualified because you hear Basil Rathbone's voice and see his silhouette?

Humans exist in that universe, even if we rarely see them, so no.

I JUST REALLY LIKE FANTASIA ALSO WHY NO ELEPHANCINE?

[toonaspie]

Wonderlicious, those questions are pretty hard, LOL. It were referring to British authors for #2, there would be way too many to list.

For #3 are you sure you didn't mean "animated films remade as live action films"? Because I can answer that one right away.
