C.J. Booth
How much do we really know about the Disney animated films we watch over and over again? Less than we think. But here’s your chance to move into the front row and experience these classics from a new perspective and with new insight into the process and the product of Disney filmmaking. Disney film maven C.J. Booth compiles not just hundreds of tricky-but-doable trivia questions about Disney’s animated films, but also 'watch lists' of the hidden Mickeys, Pixar balls, and recycled animation peppered throughout most of these films-very cool stuff which the average fan never notices. Booth organizes over seven decades of Disney’s animated film output into 'eras' of related films, from Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs through Moana , then gives a brief overview of each film followed by a set of fifteen trivia questions, plus instructions on where and how to find the cinematic surprises buried within. In Cinderella , for example, did you know that there are at least six hidden Mickeys, if you know where to look for them? Or that Pinocchio makes a cameo appearance in Tangled ? Or that The Jungle Book contains recycled animation from Disney’s 'package films' of the 1940s? You will soon, and the next time you watch the Disney classics, it will be with a fuller appreciation for the genius of the Disney studio.
