60 free 2000s Disney trivia questions with answers — entertainment quiz, new questions added Aug 2026.
Disney's 2000s were strange and rich: the studio's hand-drawn era faded with Treasure Planet and Home on the Range, Pixar carried the box office with Nemo, The Incredibles and WALL-E, Jack Sparrow turned a theme-park ride into a billion-dollar franchise, and Disney Channel minted stars named Hilary, Raven, Zac and Miley. This quiz has 52 2000s Disney trivia questions with answers spanning all of it. Expect questions on the animated features from The Emperor's New Groove to The Princess and the Frog, the Pixar run and its Oscars, live-action hits like Pirates of the Caribbean, National Treasure, The Princess Diaries, Freaky Friday, Narnia and Enchanted, the Disney Channel boom of Lizzie McGuire, That's So Raven, High School Musical, Hannah Montana and Camp Rock, plus the corporate drama of Eisner's exit, Iger's arrival and the Pixar and Marvel deals, and the decade's new parks from California Adventure to Hong Kong Disneyland. Difficulty runs from easy to expert and is marked on each question. Every answer is checked against Wikipedia's article on the film, show, park or executive in question, and each question shows its citation.
