I actually answered a lot of the questions before Jason finished asking them, the only one that got me was the one about Swiss Family Robinson, but that's because I was thinking that it was based directly off of Robinson Crusoe by Defoe.
Lemmie voice my solidarity with my fellow contestant and say... I really didn't know any of them either. I'm really not a Disney guy. Well, except for Song of the South, but only because that has a Magical Negro in it, and I love films with Magical Negroes.

Yes indeed Apreche, that would be the awesome Scatman Cruthers, who also starred in 2 of my all time favorites, One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest and Transformers:The Movie (as Jazz).
With recent releases from Dreamworks, e.g., How To Train Your Dragon, Kung-Fu Panda, and Megamind (from what I hear), it seems it's going more towards Dreamworks = Pixar. However, in my mind, Pixar > Dreamworks. We do have Cars 2 coming out soon, so yeah..
Also the overall output of quality movies of Pixar vs. Dreamworks, Pixar wins.

I've yet to see a Dreamworks film than come close to creating the lump in throat power of the hand-holding-moment in Toy Story 3. In fact, many live action films have tried and failed!
In this very special episode, we have to bleep out guest contestant Nate’s spoiler of the ending to a 20-year-old book series. Then it becomes necessary to stop Kev’s foul language. I’m pretty sure he called your mother something rotten. Kev redeems himself by walking us through Stephen King novels in our Bidding War, and then we take a look at cinema attendance rates across the globe in the Rank and File game. In the Hot Seat, Nate aces the Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy category, Omar picks “Comic Book Potpourri,†Kevin takes a swing at questions about time travel, and Ro mops up with “Movie Antagonists.†Of course, we have listener questions and IMDB Bingo in there, too.
Jason, by the way, Disney didn't buy MGM, they had a partnership that placed MGM's name on the park and allowed for Disney to use MGM films in the Great Movie Ride.
Before you e-mail me, I already know I was wrong about the Mark David Chapman thing.
That said, this week we welcome the only thing cooler than a cybernetic rhino-riding cowboy: International juggling magician comedian lion tamer flaming sword-eating podcaster Luke Burrage.
This week’s Bidding War takes an inside look at the gritty underworld of Sesame Street. Then, in our Rank and File game, we check out the top-rated television miniseries of all time. That is, if we can actually decide what “miniseries†means.
In the Hot Seat, Luke has no trouble with science fiction novel first lines, Omar goes for a category called “Sweet Dreams,†Kevin explores the real birth names of celebrity actors, and Ro remembers one-hit wonders.

Also, Super Grover. Totally a different character than Grover.
Also also, I LOVE Talladega Nights.
Remember that moment in The Man Who Would Be King when the natives realize that Sean Connery is not, in fact a God, Alexander the Great returned?
As Michael Caine said, "The jig's up Peaches!". (Or was it Bobby Fischer?)
