Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. Some consider me the black sheep of the squirrel family, but I think that is a dirty shame. Apparently, so did my co-star in a 1980 movie - Bill Murray, who was clearly impressed with my comic timing. As an experienced actor, my hilarious putting around helped the other actors stay up to par. Do you know which movie I made a comic success?
2. No one thinks squirrels are comical, but I was part of a hilarious Christmas movie and, I don't mean to sound immodest, but the scene where I leaped out of a Christmas tree was definitely the funniest scene in the movie. I know, everyone thinks Randy, Doris and Beverly were great, but I stole the show. Have you seen this 1989 classic? Do you know which movie I made great?
3. I am a country squirrel, residing in Redbud, Vermont. I like things the way they are, so imagine my dismay when I agree to star in this movie, and this city couple tries to upstage me! Andy Farmer wants to write the 'Great American Novel', and I inspire his wife Elizabeth to write a children's book. They end up squabbling and on the verge of a divorce and try to sell their new home, and let things get back to normal for me - in which 1988 film?
4. I am a very old squirrel, and glad to be starring in a new movie. But, I am so much smaller than everyone else. The other characters - Manny, Sid, Diego, Carl and several more - are way bigger than I, but only their bodies, not their roles. I am clearly the star of which 2002 animated film?
5. I am Twiggy the Water-Skiing Squirrel - probably the most famous squirrel in the world - and I am choosy about which projects I work on. So, when I was offered the opportunity to work with Vince Vaughn, Ben Stiller and Christine Taylor, I decided that their talents could live up to mine, and I said yes. Do you know which 2004 film we made?
6. I am a very musical squirrel, and have always enjoyed vaudeville acts. When the producer of 1950's "The Great Rupert" begged me to take the starring role, I declined - until I heard which singer, and former vaudevillian, would be co-starring with me. Do you know which singer that was?
7. I am no ordinary squirrel, which is why I believe I was cast as the main character in 2000's "The Adventures of Rocky and Bullwinkle". I do believe I am an even better actor than the man who played my Fearless Leader. Do you know which fairly talented actor took on that role?
8. I am a very calm and proper squirrel, so I had a few doubts about taking on a role in which I portrayed a character who was hyperactive. But, I do believe my innate acting abilities made my character - Hammy - quickly leave the others in my dust. Bruce Willis and Gary Shandling did well enough in this 2006 animated film, but I clearly was the star! Have you seen it? Do you know which film I was in?
9. Being a squirrel can sometimes have its disadvantages in the movie business, but I have found fairly steady work, mostly in animation. In fact, after my very small but important role playing a future king in a 1963 movie, my ability to work with magic, royalty and danger impressed Walt immensely. Do you know which movie - based on a novel written in 1938 - I starred in?
10. Being a squirrel with a highly developed sense of taste, when I was asked to star in 2005's "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory", as the Head Squirrel of the Nut Room, I decided to accept the role. Imagine my disgust then, when in my most important scene I was confronted by a truly distasteful child. Do you know which child I decided was a 'bad nut' and sent down the garbage chute?
