    As much as I enjoy this movie, one thing I feel they really should've fixed was the whole "Liar Revealed" story. Like sure Flik brought circus bugs that he mistook for warrior bugs, but he didn't realize that til it was too late. Not only that but Princess Atta isn't exactly innocent either since she sent Flik away on what was basically a fools mission. Flik believed he was being sent to actually find warriors, when in reality, she just wanted him outta the way. A simple work around I feel would be where when Flik and Atta exchange their own fears to each other, like how Atta feels pressure from the collony, and Flik feeling like everyone is just waiting for him to f..k up, they would both come clean. Like Atta would admit that she just wanted Flik outta the way given his recent mishap with the food getting sent into the ravine via his intention, and Flik would be understanding and say that he kinda knew that Atta and the others didn't really believe in him, and he just wanted to prove them wrong. Then when PT Flea comes to collect the circus bugs, thus revealing that Flik brought circus bugs that he mistook for warriors, everyone would be shocked by this, but Princess Atta would come to Flik's defense and be like "So what if they happen to be circus bugs? These clowns rescued Princess Dot from a hungry bird, and helped us build this fake bird! Because of Flik and his band of Circus Bugs, we actually have a fighting chance against the grasshoopers!". Or something like that. Yeah I know that might remove about 10 minutes from the film. Bringing it from 90 minutes to 80 minutes, but what'd you people think?

    Yes, I liked "A Bug's Life" as a child, but I had to watch the documentary known as "The Pixar Story" to really appreciate what this film did for Pixar. It helped them break through what is known as "second product syndrome." See, after the hype from "Toy Story" died down, some people feared that Pixar may not have been able to capture that lightning in a bottle a second time.

    A Bug’s Life is one of my favourite movies of all time, I always recommend it to people looking to watch a movie because I know how much little recognition this movie gets. The characters and story are just amazing, the jokes are brilliant. I always come back to this movie and I am very curious about Hopper and Molt’s dynamic. I try to keep the Bug’s Life fanbase alive by drawing pictures as well.
