![Why Hopper is a Fantastic Villain [A Bug's Life]](/img/tr.png)
The first villain that didn't underestimate his opponents.
I wish we had more villains like him, the ones that don't always jinx themselves.
+Andrés Pétur Axelsson (Adventure Man) I completely agree.
I think you guys are out of your mind.
diromiz : thats why Hopper scared the shit out of me when I was a kid.That and his design.Brrrr.*shivers*
yet he still failed...
This is hitting different now in today’s world.
it was always relevant and will always be i guess
I literally just told some one yo I watched this movie as a kid and now I feel like we need to take flicks advice and stand up
They said it was all a conspiracy
how?
Yup
This scene gets literally more and more relevant every single week
Yep the elite, the worlds richest and the politicians are the grasshoppers taking away the rights of the ant citizens
@@bonniestar4707 soon we won't even be able to vote for them anymore and the democrat citizens will be like huh what happened? Then we'll give an I told you so that really won't feel good saying.

I don't think he killed them. Maybe knocked them out. The killing doesn't start until the bird shows up

+Ronald Mcfuckin Donald nah he ended them. I remember cause i was freaked out when i saw that as a 5 year old
Donald's followers are a small minority. That's why they're always on the defensive - they're in a very weak position and they know it!
Their days are already numbered.
History shows - scum like them never survive for long.
Antony Stringfellow Don't know why you brought Trump into this, but thats none of my business
This scene is a masterpiece
absolutely
bluex217 Agreed.
No question about it.
From the dead look as the kernels are falling to the slack jawed look on the that one grasshoppers face to the dialogue... utter perfection.
Hell yea
Most villains normally laugh in the face of their enemies, they think there'll never be a point where they could be defeated. Not Hopper, Hopper realizes that the ants together could easily stop him, so he needs to make sure they don't realize that too. Pretty damn good villain. I love this movie.
Kevin Spacey is Hopper.
This has aged like a fine wine, definitely relevant for 2021
Actually, this has always been relevant. For almost every fucking era.
@@blueskyalchemist623 it's only going to get worse, and it always has gotten worse until the People do something.
Let's get it over with I say.
@@blueskyalchemist623 Well said mate
Let’s Go Brandon lmao 🤣
You've got to give Hopper credit, he wasn't foolishly arrogant like so many Disney villains, sitting on a throne, believing the dwarves in the forest or the mice in the manor could never become a threat. He knew his power was fragile despite his size and strength and minions. He was a competent evil overlord.
Imagine if he was a more powerful villain instead of a mere grasshopper. Scary thought.
SDagoth Kevin Spacey
Yeah. Despite his ruthless nature as a greedy bandit leader, the guy-no wait, the BUG is very wise and understanding of his own predicament with the ants he manageably subjugates, being a large enough population to start a full-fledged rebellion against him. And look at how analogical or allegorical Hopper was when he initiated a comparison of an average ant with a bean seed and throwing one at one grasshopper lackey of Hopper's gang, another seed at another hopper, then he rips the canister off, letting a waterfall of seeds cascade onto the ignorant, foolish and boastful bugs, burying them (I don't know if that actually killed them, who knows? It's Hopper after all, that ruthless, remorseless, evil son of a bitch). Hopper makes a representation with the food they foraged from the ants of one out of many ants that, with one spark of flame in their hearts, will have the potential to rise up and retaliate against Hopper and his faction ✊🏾
This is a lesson that must be taught to our government.
Donald Trump?
SDagoth you knew what would happen if class-consciousness ever emerged
Hopper is a very underrated villain
hopper is the most cunning Disney villain!!! Hopper rulze
maclicious2008 I agree. Very underrated. Along with Syndrome and Frollo.
I don't think he's underrated, and neither are Syndrome and Judge Claude Frollo. They're just not very well-known compared to other Disney villains.
Jorge Anguiano Actually, Syndrome is OVERRATED.
maclicious2008 And Disney Hercules hades very funny fast talker and was kinda like Hopper
Hopper also has another accurate quote in his debut.
“First rule of leadership. *Everything* is _your_ fault.”
Such a relevant speech. sounds like something a lot of governments would say behind closed doors
And the capitalists who own them
@@IAmNumber4000 Sad. You must be a Socialist who doesn’t see that it’s the Communists who own these governments. But Socialism is too close to Communism for you to see that.
@@michaelskyland4267 That's a narrative fed to you by outrage media. Communists make up a tiny portion of the voting base and if you haven't noticed, their ideas aren't very profitable. Money runs this country and this world. But to distract you from that fact, those with money fund an endless stream of propaganda to scapegoat anyone and everyone but themselves.
Also the Bug's Life scene is an obvious reference to class conflict.
@@IAmNumber4000 Can we just admit that both systems suck and are corrupt, because they are
@Ayjop Capitalists on lobby Government because it's effective, it's only effective because Government heavily involves itself in such things, much like Socialism would like them to
Get Government out of Market matters and see just how quickly Corporations stop bribing politicians
It's a really weird feeling when a movie from your childhood movies serves as a decent analogy for class struggle. I kinda like it.
+Anchorheads That was kind of the point, you will see it in a lot of movies.
More like Government Tyranny. Seems as though Class Warfare is a convenient excuse to divide and conquer the population.
@@VGamingJunkieVT
The State is the tool of the ruling class to maintain power
@@VGamingJunkieVT not when the government and the elites are all in 1%
@@JP-sm4cs Typically, though, people complaining about the 1% are focused on corporations, not the Government elites that are exploiting the tax payer dollar to get rich.
I thought this scene was clever. The villain explained the entire message of the movie; the act of one can inspire a great number and ultimately achieve great things.
That message is so often shared within animated films, kid's entertainment and social services and relief programs today that it's easy to overlook it as a positive, "look inside yourself" message.
If a villain like Hopper says the exact same thing, that gives another layer of how legitimate its power is.
P R O P A G A N D A O F T H E D E E D
throw eggs at the rich
Wake up
@@g.Raider Its actually because Hollywood is run by marxists and the "people's uprising" is a staple of marxist propaganda..at least a bug's life was a little more honest since the ants had their own queen and ruling class that they were preserving, as well as a money-hungry capitalist importing a bunch of foreign bugs in order to commit genocide against the grasshoppers and displace the old locust order. It is actually far more historically accurate than most leftist propaganda lol.
A literal grasshopper was smarter and scarier than most villain archetypes. He never underestimated his enemies, made a brilliant speech that reminded his minions both why they shouldn't question him and why he's right (big difference those two points), and ultimately only lost because of something higher on the food chain.
Well flick led him to the bird. He gave into his rage over losing because of flick at that point and it was his downfall. The "bird" is ultimately a god like figure to a bug (even hopper fears birds, and even bad men fear God's wrath) and he had to answer for his sins in the end by being punished by god.
@@BunnaySango good analogy. Crazy how a cartoon that came out when I was 5 is resonating with me now at 26
i love how hopper literally kills three characters on screen. Such an awesome and underrated villain.
At the same time.
And then he casually walks on the buried bodies
Probably got away with it by making it ambiguous whether they survived or not. It's pretty clear, by the context, that they didn't survive but it's like Jet on Avatar The Last Airbender. Couldn't outright say he died, but they made it really obvious.
There was a deleted scene that showed one of their bodies (just the hand was shown) but that was removed as it would have being too graphic for kids at the time
A real grasshopper could probably survive that, but it would have a hard time getting out again.
He's quite the motivational speaker, isn't he?
+EmperorShaoKahn123 Lets get em..
+Daveyboy LETS RIDE!
He killed those guys just to make a point!
Not exactly he was talking about breaking them some more genius.
That is quite an understatement!
Half of these comments: "I like how Hopper is a legitimate threat here!"
Rest of them: Political relevancy.
It's clear the poster of the video meant it in a political context. The channel is We Are Change, which is an activist group started by Luke Radowski
@@choosetolivefree WeAreChange is an independent journalist outlet, and Luke is a journalist. If you want an activist look at Adam Kokesh.
Also I'm not totally sure how this works but this isn't actually really affiliated with Luke himself. Luke's the founder of WeAreChange NYC, which is the main WeAreChange. But there are others like this one for Portugal that are more location-specific. I don't know if these guys need to get permission from Luke to use their name, or if it's more of an open-source kind of thing. I'd guess the latter because of the variation between channels and seemingly loose affiliations.
@@mikeexits Yea, he began as a pure activist, doing his confrontations with the powerful wealthy elites who have real power in the world, like his meeting with Lord Jacob Rothschild. That is activism. At some point he slowly transitioned into doing basically journalism. None the less. I remember his roots and where he came from
I find it sorta depressing that one if my favorite childhood pixar films got hooked deep into politics
@@fbi6439 no matter what, your favorite thing will get into political arguments.
"Hmm, puny."
The irony is that Hopper taught these guys that grasshoppers are stronger than ants yet he knows that his army is definitely weaker.
too bad us people cant go and defeat the evil people in office like the ants did
@yeet bender i could do this to overthrow goverment and evil presidents but they use the fbi, cia and police to demfend them and make us out numbered
@awesomeninja9178 Oh we can. We have since humans started forming tribes.
This is what governments are afraid of...
Bernacious Sandinista.
U fckn said it
Exactly
I think it’s the rich, as most of them directly profit off their workers
@Brazilian WavEment The analogy is workers rising up, unionising and fighting for fair pay/benefits/etc. The rich very much have a reason to keep their workers in line
"Voldemort himself created his worst enemy, just as tyrants everywhere do! Have you any idea how much tyrants fear the people they oppress? All of them realize that, one day, amongst their many victims, there is sure to be one that rises against them and strikes back!" - Albus Dumbledore
That's my favorate chapter in the book
This had nothing to do with Harry Potter before you barged in.
"Hopper makes Voldemort look like a bitch" - Albus Dumbledore.
DanHan on the contrary: it has more to do than you realized.
The power struggle that Hopper embodies is precisely what Dumbledore meant about tyrants fearing the people they subjugate. From what we can surmise in the movie A Bug’s Life, no ants prior to Flik ever had the brass to stand up to Hopper and his swarm. They all demurely gave in without much fuss. But then, when Hopper went too far in trying to brutalize Flik to make an example of him, the ants all realized that they were greater in number than they initially realized.
See? The parallel is clear.
Ehh, Dumbledore is a useless liberal who keeps insisting on second chances to obviously cartoonists evil people.
This has a whole new meaning in 2021.

We are many, they are few. To fear death is a choice and they can't hang us all.
is this a reference to game stop's stocks?
people don't talk about Hopper enough, he's one of my favorite Disney villains. He so badass!! :D
Pixar* not disney
TheColonelAngel
yeah but he is still Disney & Pixar, I know he is not Disney Animation Studios but I still consider them Disney

This has been relevant since the beginning of life.
I’ve thought about this scene so much this year. Especially that we’ve been in lockdown in melb aus with the strictest lockdown in the WORLD- which continues to this day with only average 6 cases a day. We’ve had a very small number of cases compared to everywhere else in the world
@@buknaked Globalist worldwide used this virus to control people and folks let them do it like willing slaves. It's funny how they complain, but don't say shit when it's time to speak up and they actually hate the one's who do speak up and stand up to it.

I love Hopper's face at 0:37. The dude looks outright bored and done with everyone's shit. xD
Hopper is the best Pixar villain.
MrWildcard531 i disagree, syndrome and lotso is the better.
@@matthewolson9850 I think Syndrome wins after literally committing genocide against superheroes
@@TrentTheHedgie Dont forget his embarassing death because he wore a cape. Like Edna said, NO CAPES!
Syndrome was better but Hopper is underrated.
A very great lesson to be learnt here. A tyrant, bully, oppressor is a coward and full of fears. That’s why he uses his power oppressively to keep his targets down, so that they don’t gain the courage to stand up to him. He is afraid of losing power and being humiliated. He does everything in his power to crush resistance. The histories of dictatorships, autocracies and fascists are great examples.
I love how people see this scene... And immediately think of government. Maybe there's hope yet, lol.
Kevin Spacey absolutely nailed it as Hopper, and that's why Hopper is one of Pixar's best and most interesting villains, second only to Lotso.
It's a shame that he turned out to be a sexual predator.
@@VGamingJunkieVT ***What.***
@@concept5631 Kevin Spacey?
@@VGamingJunkieVT ?
I love how he looks bored while he's murdering! Easily one of my favorite villains!
Guess the ants finally figured it out
GME is a fun ride but in the long run, it will change nothing. A run on a stock not gonna reform anything absolute best case you get some minor extra reg regarding overleveraging not a revolution.
Bug's Life taught me that one person can make a difference.
it only works if other decide to listen and to join
Plus its also show that you should never underestimate your opponent whether they are strong or weak.
Hopper is, without a doubt, the greatest Pixar villian of all time.
I can't think of any other bad guy from the Pixar films that are as cruel, sadistic, serious, manipulative, and intimidating. Syndrome, Stinky Pete, and Lotso had sympathetic backstorys. Hopper, on the other hand, was just pure evil.
A Bug's Life is far from Pixar's best movie, but it's antagonist has always stood out.
I agree accept the last part. Imho it’s the best pixar film
I know this is an 11 year old comment but I disagree with "pure evil". Pure evil to me is a kind of "evil for evil's sake" kind of thing. Hopper was pragmatic evil. He was a thief and a bully but it was calculated and had a purpose.
It's so weird knowing this is the exact same movie I saw as a kid, but it seems different now that I recognize Kevin Spacey's voice.
how about now?
even worse. especially in horrible bosses when he tells jason bateman "i own you, you're my bitch."
House of Cards though...that show was fucking insane. The last season wasnt the same because they dropped Spacey because of the allegations at the time
Hopper literally killed his own men just to send a message lmao
Though there’s strength in power, not numbers, there is a enough power in all of the ants combined to shift the difference in power towards their favor. Hopper knew this and that’s why he was secretly afraid of them.
which is why he used fear tatics saying he was going to kill them if they didn't comply
@@awesomeninja9178 Fear tactics are being use today to make citizens obey the government

This is still relevant nearly 20 years later.
It will be relevant so long as there is capitalism.

"it is not about cash, it is about keeping those retail traders in line! Does anybody else want to stay?"

Hopper is a very under appreciated villain and all around character.A villain that realizes their greatest weakness is that their actually the weaker species is kinda admirable.I feel like if they made some of the other grass hoppers more likable like hopper you could actually be conflicted on who to rout for in the movie.
How strangely relevant to today's world
This movie clip means so much more in the times of America here in 2020 than any other time probably.
0:37 Love Hopper's expression at that moment. Pixar knows their stuff
"...it's not about food, is about power and the road to power is paved with hypocrisy and casualties."
-Hopper Underwood
truer words have never been spoken
0:37 when I was a kid I actually feared hopper. now that I'm an adult I swear I have become him and now that is my exact facial expression
When they say "BUT THE CUSTOMER IS ALWAYS RIGHT!"
He use to be my favorite character in the movie.
His disgruntled expression? Yep, we have those.
They always tell us.
Justine Tru Duhhh is very angry!
You can do this America. We're all counting on you - we're all behind you!
This scene hits deferent now
Remember when we were all against then1% , then they divided us all
One of the best lines in a Pixar movie, another good one is from Wall-E "I don't want to survive I want to live".
Hopper truly is a smart and vile villain, not those incompetent, overconfident enemies.
"It's not about fuel, it's about keeping those ants in line."
This scene sends a message. Interesting indeed. If one puny ant stands up, no big deal.. but if they ALL stand up, that's a different story. This is so true today!!
Man, I love Hopper. I love his blunt expression as the grains fall over his minions. I would recite his speech as a kid even though I had no idea of the 50% of what I was saying. Lol
Hopper knows the threat of strength in large numbers.
Today is January 10, 2024 and this is EXACTLY how I feel about the US Government.

I can here because the whole thing with game stop stock reminded me of this scene.
I thought of this scene because of covid and the game stop thing too
This is a pretty good analogy with what's going on with GME and the stock market right now.
Politicians: "If you let one commoner stand up to us, then they all might stand up. Those 'lowly' commoners outnumber us a thousand to one. And if they ever figure that out, there goes our AUTHORITATIVE POWER!! It's not just about money or taxes. It's also about keeping those commoners under our control. That's why we're going back. Does anybody else want to stay?"
Perfectly worded
Couldn’t say it any better.
Anyone here from 2024? We all know why we’re here.
The elites are getting to comfortable showing there true colors in due time something is gonna give
I mean hey I'm just here cause I like the scene. Nothing more to it than that for me.
Edit: Although considering what most of the comments are about, I think I should mention that I consider myself pretty liberal. Just wanted to clear that up in case there was any confusion.
Yup. We are the ants
Woooh, now with the Otawa trucking convoy 2022, this video rocks...

Global Elite in a nutshell
+Gevito236 And the sheep still don't get it.
+Gevito236 I actually think this might have a more literal meaning. Pixar was a company that was bought out by Disney. They kept creation rights though so they could still produce stuff like this. Of course it was an example of petty bourgeois being bought out by bourgeois so it still has significance.
You're so close but not quite there. There's a reason the concept of "global elite" is so popular especially among the right. It's a nebulous foe of specific people connected in tenuous ways. This rhetoric exists to distract people from the more fundamental, systemic root cause that is wage labor and class society.
The ruling class of your own country, public and private sector, are just as bad in a vacuum as they are on a global scale. And when I say ruling class, I don't just mean individual CEOs or politicians, I mean the systemic framework that allows people to enter those roles to begin with.
The factory worker in China has more in common with you than either of you have with your boss.
Kevin Spacey didn't think things through like his character Hopper!
@@Exarian I hope you have figured out that the "GLOBAL ELITE" actually own the Left. The Right are the Patriots of every country fighting these people. They tell us exactly what they are doing in the movies and media they produce. Many are Lucifierian Satanist.

Hopper is/ 's speech is about < _insert political person and/or theory that you do not like here_ >
I write a comment blindly praising a favored politician as the messiah in the flesh, who could do no wrong. I then generalize my opponents as a bunch of out-of-touch morons.
Hopper's speech is about people finding out the truth behind covid 19 and opposing against the covid rules
