BLASTERMIND Looking Animated

NOW WITH ANSWERS! Can you identify the voices behind 20 animated film characters?

Look animated people! We’ve got a new Blastermind Quiz for all the Pixar, Dreamworks and Disney fans out there.

We can all recognise our favourite actors and actresses from a mile off; but will you be able to recognise them when they don’t look quite like themselves? These days, the biggest stars in Hollywood see no shame in spending days in a sound booth, lending their voices to animated characters. Usually, all it takes is a few words from a donkey’s mouth to know that it’s Eddie Murphy you’re listening to. But can you recall who provided the voices for the characters below, without the advantage of actually beincan you recognise some of the big names in cinema?

Usual request: please don’t put answers in the comments section below (though feel free to use it to boast/bemoan how well/badly you’re doing) but the folks on this thread are quite happy for you to post and discuss answers if you follow the golden rule of only posting answers in invisible text (if you don’t know how ask somebody there – they’re very friendly).
