[woman thinking think meeting upset quiet thoughtful ponder work worker girl office]Strelka Institute for Media, Architecture and Design/Flickr * THESE POP CULTURE QUESTIONS ARE A LOT HARDER THAN YOU THINK. * WALT DISNEY WAS NOT THE SOLE CREATOR OF MICKEY MOUSE, BUT YOU MIGHT NOT KNOW WHO THE OTHER PERSON WAS. * "HARRY POTTER AND THE SORCERER'S STONE" HAS ANOTHER NAME OUTSIDE OF THE US. ------------------------- WHICH STARS WARS MOVIE DOES THE LINE "LUKE, I AM YOUR FATHER" COME FROM? Disney None! That line never appeared in any "Star Wars" movie. The actual quote is “No, I am your father,” which was said in "Star Wars Episode 5: The Empire Strikes Back." WHO WAS THE FIRST DISNEY PRINCESS? Disney Persephone. That’s right, pop culture trivia fans. It’s not Snow White. In 1937, Walt Disney released a Silly Symphonies short called “The Goddess of Spring” that starred Persephone, the daughter of Zeus (and thus, a princess). It’s based on the Greek myth that Persephone, the goddess of agriculture, was kidnapped by Hades to be the queen of the underworld and later agreed to spend half of the year with him, which is why we have winter. IN WHAT MOVIE DID IRVING BERLIN’S SONG “WHITE CHRISTMAS” MAKE ITS DEBUT? Paramount Pictures "Holiday Inn," which was released in 1942. The film "White Christmas" came out in 1954. Berlin originally thought “Be Careful, It’s My Heart” would be the hit song from "Holiday Inn," but “White Christmas” spent 11 weeks on the top of the Billboard charts in 1942 alone. It’s believed to have sold over 100 million copies worldwide. Don’t miss these famous movies that had hilarious working titles.
