51 free Big Hero 6 trivia questions with answers. Big Hero 6 was Disney's first animated film built on Marvel characters, and it turned an obscure 1998 comic about a Japanese government super-team into an Oscar winner about a boy, his brother and an inflatable nurse. This quiz covers the film from the bot fights of San Fransokyo to the portal on Krei's island: the cast, the villain reveal, the microbots, the 'hairy baby' line and Baymax's sacrifice. It also goes behind the scenes - the Marvel database Don Hall was browsing when he found the comic, the Hyperion renderer and the 2,300-machine supercomputer built to run it, the 83,000 buildings of the city, the box office and awards - and into the original comics, where Baymax turned into a dragon and Fred was Fredzilla. A few questions cover Big Hero 6: The Series and its villain Obake. Roughly a third are easy enough for kids who have watched the film a dozen times; the rest reward the grown-ups who read the credits. Every answer has been checked against Wikipedia and the sources it cites, and each explanation adds one more thing worth knowing.
