To cover up for a total drought of ideas and lack of creativity on my part, have decided to run a quiz on the blog this time. Please try to answer the following questions without using google. Answers in the comments section. Ready..Steady...Go!
1) Name the stars who gave the voice-over for the characters of Shrek and Princess Fiona in the movie ‘Shrek’ ? (No, I don’t want to know who was the voice of the donkey; the first question should be easy, but not that easy)

3) Name the original founder of Pixar Animation Studios ?
4) Which was the first full-length feature film to be entirely computer animated ?
5) Name the first Disney movie to feature a non-white heroine ?
6) Name the duo that befriend the cub Simba after he runs away from the Pride Lands in ‘Lion King’ – their names in the movie and the name of the species they belonged to, both are required to get this one right.
7) Which was the first (and only) animation film to be nominated for ‘Best Picture’ at the Oscars ?
8) The ‘best animated feature’ is a category only added to the Oscars in this decade. Name the first movie to win an Oscar for ‘Best Animated Film’
