| Me with my favourite Disney Character, Donald Duck |
I wanted my first badge to be something interesting and popular to get
the blog rolling. After some deliberation, I ended up choosing the “From
the Vault” badge, which requires the user to get 100% on the Disney Animated Movies quiz. I felt confident
going into the quiz for two reasons:
 |
| Beauty and the Beast, Walt Disney Animation Studios |
1. Most of my childhood was spent watching Disney VHS tapes with my
sister Karly.
2. I had recently read a great article on Buzzfeed that ranked all
the Disney films.
I opened the quiz and was immediately taken aback by the fact that there were 54 Disney films I needed to name. I started easy with all the films from my wheelhouse. As a millennial, films like Aladdin, The Lion King, and Beauty and the Beast came to mind immediately.(Did you know that Beauty and the Beast was the first Animatedfilm nominated for Best Picture?)

| Home on the Range, Walt Disney Animation Studios |
Surprisingly, I knew all the obscure package films from the 1940s, like Make
Mine Music and Fun and Fancy Free, but I struggled
recalling the films from 2002-2008 (Essentially the films that came out during
my teen years, when I was too “cool” to care about Disney movies). With
much effort, I narrowed my remaining answers down to one and as the clock wound
down, my mind locked in on the final answer (Home on the Range —arguably
one of the worst films Disney ever made). I immediately heard
the notification sound on my phone, signaling that I had received my email
confirming my new badge.
I love the smell of Sporcle Badge in
the morning! Smells like….Victory!
