A DIS stalker's first pre-trippie...It's D-Day (Disney Day)!!

[TEminnie]

Is it Snow White?

Yes! 100 points for Jo!

Question from DTP...... In Mary Poppins what is Mrs bank's first name?

When we played DTP at Christmas we ended up just using the kids questions as the adult ones were far too hard

Haven't found it yet, but I did learn that Mrs Banks and Mary never actually talk to each other--do you think that's true??

Practically perfect in every way..........just like me really!

Really! What in the film or in real life?

If you say so

If you say so

Found it!
Mrs. Banks's first name was originally Cynthia. It was changed to the "more British-sounding" Winifred at P.L. Travers's request.



Mary Poppins and Mrs. Banks never speak to each other in the film.

Other cool stuff........


Dick Van **** had his heart set on playing Mr. Dawes, Sr., and said they didn't have to pay him, he just really wanted to do it for the fun. Although Walt Disney had offered him the part of Bert right out, he made him audition for the part of Mr. Dawes, Sr.



Ok--how many different jobs does Bert play???

 

[TEminnie]

Now isn't that funny that they ******* out Dick van's last name!
I had to sit and think of that one!

 

[DebIreland]

Too funny about Dick Van D*i*ke's name being filtered.

In honor of Ratatouille (sp?), what other Disney films take place in Paris?

How about Aristocats? I love that movie!!!

Denise

Good one Denise. Also, The Hunchback of Notre Dame.

Oh that's hard. Chimney sweep, street vendor..... can't remember what else!

 

[LurrrvtheDuck]

LOL oh well hmmmm. Shall we just make up random questions.

How about:

Yup those are the 2 Paris movies!

I find it hilarious that they'll filter his last name, but not his first.

 

[TEminnie]

Oh that's hard. Chimney sweep, street vendor..... can't remember what else!

1. chimney sweep
2.one-man band,
3.a chalk artist,
4. and a kite salesman.

50 points to Deb!!! (now we remember them all, right?!)

ok-
Name the Disney films nominated for Best Picture (hint...one was created by Walt himself, and one wasn't)

Ooooh I know I know.

Mary Poppins and Beauty & The Beast. I admit I needed Google's help for Beauty and The Beast - it's weird cause I always thought Snow White got a Best Picture oscar but it seems it only got an honorary oscar.

Ding Ding Ding!


100 points to Deb!!

Thought this was funny:
Julie Andrews was left hanging in mid-air during one particularly long camera setup. The stagehands unwittingly lowered her wire harness rather rapidly. "Is she down yet?" called a grip. "You bloody well better believe she is!" fumed Andrews.


The word "supercalifragilisticexpialidocious" seems to pre-date the movie, but language experts have yet to pin down by how much, or what, exactly, it originally meant. An urban myth is growing that it had something to do with Irish (or Scottish) prostitutes.

(Deb--got an opinion on that??)

Ok--another one (didn't know this...but kinda cool)
In Sleeping Beauty, the cookies that the fairies eat with tea are shaped like what?

Well you can make the words 'super', 'delicious' and 'lips' out of it but not the word 'hoo-ha' so no, I see no connection with prostitutes. And I think the myth is that it's prostitutes of Irish/Scottish descent but living in Virginia - they were innocent creatures before they crossed the waters.

Oooo Ooooo Oooooo I know I know they're shaped like Mickey ears

 

[CourtneyandRyan]

Hi DM!!!!! I'm sure you'll be sad when you read this b/c that means that you are back at home, and not at WDW any more!!!!

It was SO FUN to meet you in MK---- Give me a bit, and I'll post the pics we took.... Hope you are having a magical trip!

 

[LurrrvtheDuck]

Ok so what's the score now.

Jo has about 1,000 points already.

We need other competitors!


OK here's another question (that Google may not have the answer to):

What song is playing on the car radio in Toy Story?

I momentarily forgot my Scotch-Irish heritage before posting that!

Now I'm singing the song over and over!

 

[TEminnie]

Oooo Ooooo Oooooo I know I know they're shaped like Mickey ears

Yes! Jolly good, Jo!!
Another 100 points (which is like 50 British points I think! )

That was a pretty cool hidden Mickey, wasn't it??

It took me 2 hours to get through this thread. Let me know if you want this moved to our regular TR, when you get back. Otherwise you can start a new thread. I see the "live report" going, so I don't know if you want to stick with that one, or start one yourself.

Hi Mari the Moderator!
Did you enjoy our intellectual discussions? (well, except for Jo of course!)
We are missing DM and trying to keep her memory alive and hoping for some live reports from the World.
I bet she will start a new thread--didn't she mention something about that, Jo??

 

[twob4him]
