July 3

Trivia

1. How long (in inches) is Tinker Bell's flight at the Magic Kingdom? 9000 [750 feet] (dzneynut)
2. Pumbaa means what in Swahili? Lazy, ignorant, etc...
3. In what other Disney film can the song Hakuna Matata be heard? Lion King 1.5 (crashbunny) OK, true. There's another non-TLK movie that I'm thinking of too...
4. What Lion King composer caused the opening of the entire movie to be redone, eliminating a lot of dialog, by making a (quite magnificent) longer version of the song than the animators expected? Menkin, Rice Nope. He did the original. Someone else changed it to make it longer.
6. The first two lines of the African Chant starting the song 'The Circle of Life' mean what when translated? "There's a lion, a very big lion!" (my source says "There comes a lion, yes, it's a big lion" but differences in translation abound)
7. In Phenomenon, what type of signals does George think he's understanding? Extraterrestrial, digital (What "encoding" was what I meant by 'type' - clue: they are not digital/binary but trinary)
8. In Phenomenon, what kind of signals is George really intercepting?
9. Who is the "host" of Innoventions, and who provides his voice? Tom Morrow, Nathan Lane (tiggerguy)
10. What song does this host sing for Guests, who provided the original lyrics, and who provided the revised 'innoventions' lyrics? There's a Great Big Beautiful Tomorrow, the Sherman Brothers and the Sherman Brothers (tiggerguy) - did you know: Innoventions is in the same building as the Carousel of Progress was at Disneyland, and that song was featured in the Carousel of Progress show...

3,4,7,8 still want answers.

I always do that with Tink's name

And it wasn't Tim Rice either, nor are the signals digital.

4. Elton John?

Sam I Am · 07-04-2004, 01:06 AM

Not Sir Elton either. This person has done probably hundreds of movies. Including The Rock (I like that score a lot) and Pirates of the Caribbean.

crashbunny · 07-04-2004, 12:59 PM

Hans Zimmer?

TrendyMagic · 07-04-2004, 02:20 PM

3. Toy Story

Sam I Am · 07-04-2004, 06:39 PM

Yes, Hans Zimmer and Toy Story are correct (remember in the car, it's on the radio/cd/tape deck at the end of the movie?)

In the movie, he's decoding/intercepting Morse code, but the sound is really telex, not Morse...
