It’s the holiday season in Disney World, and that means that there are tons of new treats to try! Holiday treats are back again! We’ve seen festive snacks in the parks already, but now it’s time to branch out and try some treats in Disney Springs. We’re heading to Jock Lindsey’s Hangar Bar to check out the holiday overlay and try some drinks and eats! First of all, can we just stop and admire the festive fun that is Jock Lindsey’s Holiday Bar? Jock Lindsey’s Holiday Bar The Christmas-y additions to this place are seriously over-the-top, but we don’t mind one bit. Outside, you can already spot TONS of tinsel and a few wreaths! Jock Lindsey’s Holiday Bar Once inside, you’ll spot how truly festive this lounge can get. Jock Lindsey’s Holiday Bar The ceiling is lined with elaborate tinsel… Jock Lindsey’s Holiday Bar …there are elves on the walls… Jock Lindsey’s Holiday Bar …wreaths are decked out with little airplanes… Jock Lindsey’s Holiday Bar …Christmas lights abound… Jock Lindsey’s Holiday Bar …and the corner booth is looking EXTRA inviting. Jock Lindsey’s Holiday Bar And there’s SO. MUCH. MORE. Make sure you look around when you stop by! Jock Lindsey’s Holiday Bar Here’s a peek at the holiday food offerings on the menu! Menu But let’s get sippin’! There are THREE drinks for the holiday bar. The first is the Yule Mule, a sip made with Bombay Sapphire, cranberry juice, rosemary simple syrup, lime juice, and ginger beer for $13. Yule Mule This was a basic but great drink! It would have been cool to have a little more holiday flavor, but if you like a mule then this one could be a good choice. Yule Mule Next, we tried out the Claus Mo made with Absolut Citron, Cointreau, lime juice, cranberry juice, and shimmer for $16. Claus Mo This one was basically a normal cosmo…but GLITTERY. It had a great balance of tartness and sweetness. If we wanted a tried and true classic, we would certainly go for this one again! Claus Mo Unfortunately, Jock’s was out of creme de menthe so we couldn’t try the third drink. But when the Elf Elixer does debut, it will be a mix of white creme de cacao, green creme de menthe, and half and half. We’ll be sure to review it as soon as we can! Jock Lindsey’s Holiday Bar And now it’s time to EAT! First on our list is the Venison Slider. Venison Slider This bad boy is made with venison sausage patties, arugula, tomato, and cranberry aïoli on house-made buns. You can order it for $14. Venison Slider These were tasty! It’s certainly a thicker piece of meat on the sliders. They have great texture and we loved the cranberry aioli on them. The holiday vibes were strong. Venison Slider Next up is the Fried Brussels Sprouts. Fried Brussels Sprouts They’re served with a bacon vinaigrette for $8. Fried Brussels Sprouts Nothing too fancy going on here! These were plain fried brussels sprouts. If you’re a brussels fan, you’ll like them. BUT, we definitely prefer the brussels sprouts nearby at Polite Pig. Fried Brussels Sprouts You’ll also find the Holiday Lights Deviled Eggs on the menu for a limited time. Holiday Lights Deviled Eggs They have colored deviled eggs with tobiko and shrimp. You can order this dish for $12. Holiday Lights Deviled Eggs This has been a favorite in years past! They’re not overly spicy but they have a great simple flavor and the shrimp add an awesome touch. Plus, the dish is presented VERY well. It’s certainly a staple at this holiday-themed bar. Holiday Lights Deviled Eggs Next up is the Ham and Brie Flatbread for $9. Ham and Brie Flatbread It’s made with shaved ham, brie cheese, pomegranate seeds, granny smith apples, apple vinaigrette, and watercress. Ham and Brie Flatbread Jock’s makes a great flatbread and this one was no different. We could’ve used a touch more brie, but otherwise, the flavors here were great! This might not be the most themed of the dishes, but it would go well with any of Jock’s cocktails. Ham and Brie Flatbread The Cookies and Milk consist of a variety of assorted cookies and coquito. Cookies and Milk You can purchase this holiday treat for $27. Cookies and Milk If you swap the coquito for milk, this dessert is $9. Cookies and Milk And this dessert is a BIG winner at Jock Lindsey’s Holiday Bar. We love how creative this dessert is and you’d be hardpressed to find something more Christmas-y than a plate of cookies and milk. Our favorite of the cookies was the frosted gingerbread one but all of them were tasty! Cookies and Milk And finally, let’s try the Lump of Coal Dessert! Lump of Coal Dessert It’s a cookies and cream ganache “coal” for $12. Look at the amazing presentation! Lump of Coal Dessert Ding, ding, ding! We have a winner! The presentation is show-stopping and the ganache goes so well with the icing for dipping. Maybe we WANT to end up on the naughty list so Santa brings us more of these! Lump of Coal Dessert That’s everything at Jock Lindsey’s Holiday Bar, head on over if the menu catches your eye. Stay tuned to DFB for more food reviews and holiday snacks throughout the season!

On your marks! Get set! GO! ©runDisney Every runDisney participant knows and reacts to these words on cue! But for a limited time, runners can dash over to Disney Springs to get a decent discount on some serious food to help replenish those calories! Runners need fuel up to maintain their energy and stamina during the event. And afterward, it’s equally important to replenish used calories with a hearty meal. Luckily, we know exactly where you should go! Disney Springs Runners train year-round for marathons and other events (half-marathons, 10Ks and 5Ks are pretty serious, too!), and runDisney events are some of the most popular running events in the nation with some races booking up the same day they are released. While some of the DFB family set their early morning alarms to snag coveted advanced dining reservations, others may be getting their pre-dawn wake-up calls to book one of those popular racing events. Now, there’s a restaurant that is rewarding that clump of Disney fans who meet in the middle of that Venn diagram of loving running and loving food. Splitsville Luxury Lanes at Disney Springs Splitsville posted on its Instagram that participants in the 2021 Disney Wine & Dine Half Marathon would receive 20% off of their food and non-alcoholic beverages with proof of their racing bib or medal for November 4th-7th. ©@splitsville.orlando Instagram There’s still time this weekend to take advantage of this discount! So, grab your bib or your medal, and head down to the West Side area of Disney Springs. Grab some sushi, or a giant plate of loaded fries! We’ll be sure to keep you posted on all of the newest food (and runDisney) details, so stay tuned to DFB!

The holiday season in Disney World has officially shifted from Halloween to Christmas. The holidays are here! That’s meant a BIG change in decorations, treats, and merchandise throughout the parks (although we’re still seeing some leftovers from the spooky season!). We’re heading into the Magic Kingdom to check out all the new things that have arrived at this park in the last week. Let’s go see what’s new! We’ll start out with our favorite update: food! Magic Kingdom Food Update When Starbucks starts selling holiday drinks, that means it’s really the Christmas season. You can now get a variety of festive drinks, like the Caramel Brûlée Latte, Peppermint Mocha, Irish Cream Cold Brew, and more. Holiday drinks menu We decided to try the Iced Sugar Cookie Latte, which is a new drink this season! It’s an iced latte with hints of sugar cookie flavor, topped with sugar cookie sprinkles. Iced Sugar Cookie Latte This drink had the perfect amount of holiday cheer, with a subtle but delicious cookie flavor. You can get one at the Main Street Bakery in Magic Kingdom (or the Starbucks location in any of the parks) for $5.69. Click Here to Check Out our Full Review of the Iced Sugar Cookie Latte Or you can head down to the Main Street Confectionery to find more options for coffee and hot cocoa! The hot cocoa tins were $13.99 for a set of 3. Hot Cocoa! This spot has packages of coffee available as well, and we spotted some new packaging when we visited! Lots of coffee flavors There were new designs on the Mickey’s “Really Swell” Coffee bags for several different flavors, including the Signature Blend… Signature Blend Coffee …French Vanilla… French Vanilla Coffee …Pumpkin Spice… Pumpkin Spice Coffee …Morning Roast… Morning Roast Coffee …and Organic. Organic Coffee You can also get the coffee in single-service cups (for Keurig machines) in Morning Roast… More Morning Roast …Hazelnut… Hazelnut Coffee …Signature Blend… Signature …and Organic. The K-Cups come with 12 single servings and cost $16.99 per package. Organic The best part about these treats? You can take them home with you and have Disney-themed coffee all season long. Magic Kingdom Merchandise Update If you’re looking for new Disney World merchandise, you’ll find plenty of it in the Magic Kingdom! The Emporium (that big gift shop on Main Street, U.S.A.) just got a ton of holiday merchandise. Lots of new items! We saw new Minnie Ears… The holiday ears are HERE! …new spirit jerseys with Mickey and the gang playing winter sports… Walt’s Lodge Spirit Jersey …home decor like blankets, pillows, and candles… New candle …pajama sets… Cute pajamas …ornaments… Snow Globe Ornament …and so much more!

There’s one for Mickey Mouse… Mickey Figurine …and another for Minnie Mouse. Minnie Figurine In other merchandise news, you can head to Tomorrowland where we spotted a new Apple Watch band in the Light and Power gift shop for $34.99. New apple watch band Just across the way at Star Traders, there was a new Donald Duck T-shirt for $36.99… Donald Duck Tee …and tropical Stitch sweatpants for $44.99. Very cozy…er…tropical!

Here’s the back You can get it for $75. And the side! While you’re over in Adventureland, you can still check out the 50th Anniversary sunglasses over at the Sunglass Hut. 50th Anniversary Sunglasses The set comes with the glasses, a case, and accessories, and it’ll cost you $330. Apparently they’re very popular — despite the high price tag — because a Cast Member told us they only had a few left in the store. Pretty Pricey Hop over to Frontierland to the Frontier Trading Post to check out their limited edition pins! These are all themed after a Disney World attraction, and they’re $17.99 each. There was one for Dumbo the Flying Elephant… Dumbo Pin …Peter Pan’s Flight… Peter Pan’s Flight Pin …the Enchanted Tiki Room… Peter Pan’s Flight Pin …Mad Teacups… Mad Teacups Pin …the Haunted Mansion… Haunted Mansion Pin …Space Mountain… Space Mountain Pin …Pirates of the Caribbean… Pirates of the Caribbean Pin …and the Walt Disney World Railroad. Walt Disney World Railroad PIn Maybe we can get the railroad pin to help cure our sadness that this attraction has been closed in the Magic Kingdom for so long. There was also a pin set for the upcoming Book of Boba Fett series, which is debuting on Disney+ on December 29th this year. Boba Fett Pins You can get all four pins for $29.99. Or you can check out the Lilo and Stitch Countdown to Christmas pin, which was $34.99. Countdown to Christmas Stitch Pin Whew! That’s a lot of new merchandise.

Magic Kingdom Construction Update Earlier in the week, we noticed that the Jungle Cruise had gotten its holiday makeover and is now the Jingle Cruise! Presents at the campsite This attraction got another update more recently: some of the plexiglass barriers on the boat between the guests and the skipper have been removed, and you can now see and hear the skipper better. Plexiglass barriers have been removed There are still barriers on the benches to the side of the skipper, but the big barrier in the middle is no longer there.

If you’re headed to Disney World this month, you’re going to want to see this update! Magic Kingdom Disney World park hours are usually set a few months in advance but they are subject to change! We already saw EPCOT’s hours get an extension earlier this month and now MORE hour extensions are coming to Disney World for November. Magic Kingdom has seen a few earlier mornings and a few later evenings. On November 21st and 23rd, the park will be open from 8AM to 8PM. Originally the park was set to open at 9AM on these dates. On November 22nd and 24th-27th, park hours were extended from 9AM to 9PM to 9AM to 10PM. ©Disney Over in EPCOT, we’ve seen an extension for November 21st-27th. Initially, the park was set to open at 11AM these days, but the hours are now 10AM to 10PM. ©Disney Finally, Disney’s Animal Kingdom will have longer days on November 21st through 27th with hours from 8AM to 8PM. The park was initially set to close at 7PM. ©Disney Disney’s Hollywood Studios is the only park that has not seen any Thanksgiving week extensions this time. Is it worth it to Park Hop? This hours extension takes place the week of Thanksgiving, so it’s likely in response to expected crowds. Lots of folks like to spend their holidays in Disney World!

We’re in Disney Springs today checking out all kinds of holiday snacks! Amorette’s in Disney Springs Some snacks are returning, while others are brand-new. Either way, we’ve been filling our bellies with all the sweet and savory options to bring you the full treat reviews. And now, we’re heading to Amorette’s Patisserie for some beautiful holiday desserts. These snacks are adorable, but do they taste as good as they look? It wouldn’t be a holiday without some new sweets at Amorette’s, so we’re stopping by to try out some of the holiday treats the bakery has to offer. First up on our list is the White Chocolate Peppermint Éclair, which is an eclair with a white chocolate and peppermint mousse filling, garnished with pieces of peppermint candy and gold leaf (fancy!). The Eclair! The eclair was sweet (no surprise here) and you could really taste that peppermint flavor in the filling. Our DFB reporter who tried it really liked the filling in this treat, but shared that it might not be for everyone. White Chocolate + Peppermint = Good or Bad? You have to really love peppermint and white chocolate to enjoy this one. If you like peppermint or white chocolate a little bit but you don’t really LOVE either of those flavors, then we’d recommend you pick another treat from the case. You might find this treat to be a bit of a peppermint overload and not really enjoy it. If, on the other hand, peppermint and white chocolate sound like a dream mixture to you, and you especially love that peppermint flavor, then you might want to give this a try. A Peek Inside If you want to taste this eclair, it is priced at $8.50 and it will be available from now through December 30th. Next up is the Holiday Mickey Mousse Mini Dome Cake. Amorette’s Patisserie is known for its dome cakes, and this one definitely looks Instagrammable! The parfait is definitely pretty and since it was served in a clear cup, it was easy to see those beautiful layers. In terms of taste though, we felt like it just had too much going on. There were too many flavors fighting for attention all at once. The cake and cranberry combination also wasn’t quite what we had hoped it would be. Parfait Time Our reporter who tasted this said they didn’t hate it, but they also didn’t really love much about it. Out of the 3 treats we tried today from Amorette’s, this ranks at the bottom. It was beautiful, and if you like treats with LOTS of flavors packed into one, then you might enjoy this. Would You Get This? If you dislike cranberry or any of the other ingredients, and/or if you like your treats to have only a few flavors, then this might not be a good choice for you. We could see some enjoying this, but overall the combination of flavors might not be for everyone. Parfait This treat is available for $9 from now until December 30th. Amorette’s also has a Santa Mickey Dome Cake available, and a NYE Petit Cake will be available later in the year, so there’s plenty of sweet treats to look forward to.

Headed to Disney World next week? That’s so exciting! EPCOT is for people of all ages! We want to make sure that you’re TOTALLY prepared to have the best trip ever and a BIG piece of that is getting packed! So, join us for a full look at the weather forecast for Disney World next week so YOU know what to toss in your bag! Weather Forecast Guess what? It’s getting even COOLER in Disney World next week! Last week, those cooler temps started to show up and now the fall feels are REALLY comin’ in hot (or should we say cold?)! Disney’s Animal Kingdom But careful, that doesn’t mean your days won’t get warmer at times! November 8th Based on The Weather Channel, Monday, November 8th is expected to be a GORGEOUS day. Get ready for pleasant temperatures and LOTS of sun! ©The Weather Channel The night is going to be pretty cool though! This is a week where layering is SO IMPORTANT. Temperatures will be warm to hot during the day and chilly at night. November 9th On Tuesday, November 9th, you’ll see that weather scoot up a few degrees for the high and the low. Again, while you might be comfy at noon in that 79-degree weather, things could be a little cool for you in the morning and the night. ©The Weather Channel The rain chance stays relatively low for all of next week. In fact, there’s barely ANY rain in the whole forecast! It could still crop up, but we might be in for a dry week. November 10th When we reach Wednesday, November 10th, we’ll see another warmer day and those temperatures should stabilize at around the same spot as they were the day before. ©The Weather Channel The low is jumping up to about 62 degrees. Keep in mind that we’ve got higher humidity here in Florida. That can make the weather feel a few degrees warmer or colder than it actually is (usually whichever is less comfortable). November 11th On Thursday, November 11th, the high warms up just a few degrees to an EXTREMELY comfortable 81-degree high and 65-degree low. ©The Weather Channel It’s really cooling off in general though, and the days are getting shorter too! Expect sunrise around 6:45AM and sunset around 5:30PM. Yep, it’s daylight savings time! November 12th For Friday, November 12th, the weather sticks around that low-80s high and 60s low. And it’s going to get a little cooler than it was at the beginning of the week, so savor the warmth! ©The Weather Channel During the day it will be sunny and still a very slim chance of rain. Winds will be light so the breeze shouldn’t be enough to get you down. We might see some showers LATE in the evening! November 13th We pop TEN DEGREES down into the 70s on Saturday, November 13th! You’ll probably feel pretty warm during the day but DEFINITELY don’t skip bringing an extra layer! ©The Weather Channel Pro trip! Bring an insulated rain jacket and let your rain layer DOUBLE as your warmth layer! That way, if any days make for sudden showers, you’re prepared! November 14th Saturday, November 14th is our coolest day of the WHOLE WEEK. 71 degrees is a pretty comfortable high, but it’s that LOW that shocks us! ©The Weather Channel Our evening temperatures are going to be 51 degrees! OMG. That’s almost the 40s!!! Make sure you bring a jacket, hat, scarf, or WHATEVER will keep you warm. Overview of the Week Here is a full overview of the week according to The Weather Channel. It looks like the most likely days for rain are Saturday and Sunday. Keep in mind though, Florida likes to hit us with those rainy curveballs! ©The Weather Channel Other websites like Click Orlando News 6… ©Click Orlando News 6 …and WESH 2 News have similar forecasts throughout the week. ©WESH 2 News Remember, meteorologists aren’t perfect and the weather, especially in Florida, is ever-changing! Keep checking the forecast. How Should You Plan? Now, let’s look at a few tips that will keep you feeling comfy AND safe in Disney World next week! Lather up! You might not be sweating like crazy in Disney World anymore, but that doesn’t mean you can skip out on sun protection. The UV levels are a LOT lower than they were in the summer, but we want you protected regardless! Remember to reapply! Wear your sunscreen and reapply a few times over the course of the day to make sure you don’t burn! And even now that temperatures are mild, take it easy when you’re spending the whole day walking in the sun. Drink LOTS of water and take breaks when you need them! Click here for another GREAT way to keep cool and safe in Disney World! And, layer up! We’ve got temps in the LOW 50s this week. That’s WILD. You might feel a little toasty during the day and then downright chilly at night. Well, we’ll let you in on our tried-and-true tip to handling the Florida cold. 50th Jacket LAYERS, BABY! Wear. Those. Layers. Make sure you have a scarf, warm hat, and/or jacket when you’re headed to the park. That way you won’t find yourself shivering when you’re waiting for those fireworks to start in the evening!

We’re traveling all around Disney World these days to try out a bunch of holiday snacks! What Would You Pick? And you don’t even have to enter a theme park to taste many of the offerings — there are so many you can check out in the resorts and at Disney Springs. Today, we’re stopping by a favorite spot in Disney Springs to try yet another holiday sweet! Say hello to the new holiday donut at Everglazed Donuts & Cold Brew… Everglazed Donuts & Cold Brew …the Holiday Mystery Donut. It’s an apple strudel-inspired treat that’s only available for a limited time. Holiday Mystery Donut You can pick this one up for $6.50. The apple-flavored donut is covered with caramel sauce, coffee cake cinnamon pieces, and a vanilla frosting drizzle. Looks delicious! Inside, you’ll find an apple pie filling, and it’s all topped with a cream cheese buttercream frosting. So is it as delicious as it looks? Yum yum yum We thought this donut was fantastic. If you love fall flavors (like we do), you’ll be a BIG fan of the caramel and cinnamon topping. Caramel Cinnamon Goodness The donut actually tasted like a real apple pie to us! The donut itself is a heavy cake donut, so this isn’t exactly a light snack. We’ve learned from past experience that Everglazed donuts can basically be a full-on meal sometimes. It’s a heavy donut! It’s also super sweet but since the flavors were fruity from the filling and rich from the caramel, it didn’t taste artificially sweet, which we loved! 10s across the board If you love apple pie, strudel, or just fall treats in general, you need to head to Everglazed ASAP to give this treat a try. But if you want a lighter dessert or something just to snack on, you might want to check at some of the other shops here! Vivoli il Gelato (also in Disney Springs) has some much lighter, smaller-portioned treats if that’s what you’re looking for.

There are some incredible Disney-based video games out there, like Kingdom Hearts, or does anyone else remember the incredibly difficult 1994 The Lion King game? If you’re one of the lucky ones to remember Adventures in the Magic Kingdom though, our hats are off to you. ©Capcom In 1990, Adventures in Magic Kingdom was released by Capcom for Nintendo. (We mean that old gray box with controllers ON CORDS with the cartridges we all thought blowing into would make work better. Just ask your mom or dad. They know. ). While it was not a masterpiece, it was fun for many 90s kids. One game just so happened to have players answer Disney trivia. When we recently took a look at the trivia NOW, we were surprised by how difficult some of the questions were!! So let’s test how much of a Disney trivia question expert you are! We’ll be honest — most of our team had never heard of this game. But of those that had, it was a BIG deal for their little Disney World-loving brains at the time. And those of us that played it remember how weird and unique the game was — including the odd trivia portion of the game! But First, What WAS This Game?! So what WAS this game? Adventures in Magic Kingdom told the incredibly loose story of Goofy leaving Cinderella Castle gate’s golden key inside the park. Players were tasked with retrieving six silver keys in order to open the castle gate (Obviously. Don’t your keys have 6 backup keys?) in order to start the Disney parade on time. Seriously, Goofy? You had ONE job. To do this, players had to complete five different games, each of which were based INCREDIBLY loosely on Disney theme park rides. What do we mean? Well, THIS was the Pirates of the Caribbean game: No “Yo Ho” here guyz Yeah, you’re a little cowboy kid. Or like a kid from the Australian outback. Not quite sure, but that’s you. You’re this kid on Haunted Mansion as well. (There’s also a legit creepy ghost that chases after you and apparently you kill ghosts here with candles? Sure. Why not!) FYI, this and the Pirates section were borderline impossible for us growing up! That ghost seriously haunts our dreams There’s a fun Space Mountain-themed section where you navigate around meteors in space… This game was REALLY tough …and a bizarre Autopia section (that would be the DISNEYLAND name for the Magic Kingdom’s equivalent Tomorrowland Speedway. There’s a lot of head-scratcher moments like that where it seems like they jumbled up the parks in the game. Just go with it!). At one point you do, in fact, leap over what appears to be a lake of red mud or blood. Not sure. Not gonna probe any deeper on that one. Please be red mud water? And there’s a fun Big Thunder Mountain Railroad ride where you have to end up on the right track at the end. Totally just like the actual ride. Players also had to run around the map finding kids with a dog (that looks just like Pluto) to answer trivia questions in order to obtain the key around the dog’s neck. And you know what — some of the questions were HARD. One of many questions you’re asked to get the key The board was fun to explore. There’s even an “it’s a small world” you could walk up to but not ride. Maybe a scrapped 6th ride? Either way, it’s there to confuse a generation of kids thinking it was ridable and they just couldn’t figure out how to get on! ©Capcom This game was weird, fun, oddly more like DisneyLAND than World, and loaded with a catchy 8-bit soundtrack we can still hum to this day. What can we say, it was a bop. If anyone knows what getting all the keys looks like, let us know cause we’d be lying if we said we actually fully successfully finished the game! Very young us collectively needs to know what the parade looks like!! But back to those trivia questions! Let’s see how many YOU know! On to the TRIVIA! Note in the game, these were presented as multiple choice. We’ll just give you the question, break it up with a picture, then the answer so you can see if you got it right! What year did the Mickey Mouse comic begin? Mickey Mouse Mickey Mouse was a newspaper comic strip created by a number of illustrators and authors, including Walt Disney himself. This was the first published Disney comic, and the first Mickey Mouse comic strip debuted on January 13, 1930! Where does the story of Dumbo take place? Dumbo While most people probably know Dumbo is set at a circus, did you know WHERE the circus is located? Dumbo takes place in 1941 at a circus in Florida. (There’s a shot of the state as the storks fly down to drop off the babies!) We wonder if this fictional circus was anywhere near Disney World! What is Donald Duck’s middle name? Hey, Donald!!! The first time we see Donald’s middle name is in the 1942 short film Donald Gets Drafted, in which Donald is drafted into the U.S. Army during World War II. His middle name is visible on his manifest to report to duty, and it’s also a name for a garment that typically consists of a sailor suit and hat (AKA Donald’s favorite outfit!). Donald Duck’s middle name is Fauntleroy! When is Mickey Mouse’s birthday? Steamboat Willie ©Disney This one might be an easy one for some of you. Mickey’s birthday is based on the date of the release of the short film Steamboat Willie, which was directed by Walt Disney and Ub Iwerks. Mickey Mouse’s birthday is November 18, 1928. That means Mickey is almost 93 years old! What is the film in which Goofy first appears? ©Disney In his first appearance on film, Goofy played a member of the audience with a unique laugh (ah-hyuck!). Goofy’s first film was Mickey’s Revue, a 1932 animated short. We have a bit more trivia about Goofy coming up! What is the name of Hook’s ship in Peter Pan? Captain Hook and Mr. Smee The Nintendo game used this trivia question as a trick question!! The correct answer in the game is “it doesn’t have a name” because Disney’s animated Peter Pan film from 1953 does not reference it. But the creator of Peter Pan, children’s author and playwright J.M. Barrie, did name the ship in the 1904 play, even though it is not technically referred to by name in Disney’s animated film. It is later called by name in the ABC television series, Once Upon a Time. Captain Hook’s ship is called The Jolly Roger. What character is known as Musse Pigg in Sweden? Nope, not THIS pig. Need a hint? Pigg means “lively” or “cheery” in Swedish, so the translation is essentially “Sprightly Mouse.” It’s Mickey Mouse! He is also called Mickey Mus, as “mus” means mouse in Swedish. The spelling of mus as “musse” is an attempt to make the Swedish word for mouse look like an actual name. Swedish editor Anna-Stina Hägg was responsible for translating “Mickey Mouse” into Swedish. What Disney Character is in the most films? Court Jester Mickey and Knight Donald This character has been in 197 films, and it’s not Mickey Mouse, who has been in 167 films. This piece of trivia was correct in 1990 and is still correct today in 2021! The answer is…Donald Duck! With the exception of the superhero genre, Donald is also the most published comic book character in the world. Which Winnie the Pooh Character was once named Edward? Piglet, Winnie the Pooh, and Tigger! This character first appeared in the creator of Winnie the Pooh, A. A. Milne’s poem, “Teddy Bear,” published in February 13, 1924. It’s Winnie the Pooh himself! A. A. Milne eventually named the character after his son Christopher Robin’s teddy bear that he called Winnie, though he was not officially called Winnie the Pooh until December 24, 1925, in a Christmas story published by the London newspaper Evening News. When Goofy first appeared he had another name…? Dippy Dawg…er we mean Goofy! Goofy originally debuted in newspaper comic strips under a different name, as well as in the his first animated short, which we mentioned above. He did not appear under the name of Goofy until the 1938 film, Goofy & Wilbur. Goofy’s original name was Dippy Dawg! Gawrsh! What was the first Academy Award winning cartoon? Flowers and Trees ©Disney In the new category of “Short Subjects, Cartoons,” the first animated film to earn an Oscar was the Disney short film Flowers and Trees, at the fifth Academy Awards in 1932. This film was one of the Silly Symphonies series of 75 Disney short animated musical films. It was also the first Disney animated film to be in color! Some of the questions were pretty simple (What time does Cinderella’s spell wear off? Midnight, obv.) but others were a bit more tricky. Do YOU know what the first cartoon appearance of Mickey was? Hint: it’s NOT Steamboat Willie (it was Plane Crazy which came out earlier the same year as Steamboat Willie!). So some of these questions must have been really hard for 80s kids, especially without the Internet! Was any of this Disney trivia new to you or are you a Disney trivia expert? There are actually a fair chunk more of these questions we DIDN’T share, so if you got a kick out of this like we did, let us know and we can share round 2!
