    “A Bug’s Land” (stylized “a bug’s land”) was an area of Disney California Adventure themed after Pixar’s 1998 film A Bug’s Life. The land consisted of Flik’s Fun Fair, which opened on October 7, 2002, and was set in a representation of the film’s fictional universe with four rides targeted towards young children; Flik’s Flyers, Francis’ Ladybug Boogie, Tuck and Roll’s Drive 'Em Buggies, and Heimlich’s Chew Chew Train. The area also included a water play area targeted towards young children. An outside area contained the It’s Tough to Be a Bug! theater, which was an original area of the park when it opened on February 8, 2001. The area closed on September 4, 2018 to make way for Avengers Campus.

    they had A Bugs Life themed attractions at disney parks for almost 20 years, this weird conspiratorial crap is lingering in THEY dont want you to know! crao, hollywood movies arent going to save you.

    The movie ends with the big bad grasshopper getting eaten by a bird, something totally out of the hands of the ants.

    if you sincerely think A Bugs Life didnt have it’s cultural moment you werent conscious in 1998.

      Yeah seriously. A Bugs Life is generally considered one of the big Pixar classics. It was huge and it’s societal lasting was decades.

    I never liked movie tie-in games, but there was a version of A Bug’s Life on PS1 that somehow ended up in my household growing up, and it was pretty darn good.

    Everyone remembers this movie for the ‘workers rise up’.

    I rememeber it for the shitty cliche ‘liar revealed’ story. I remember it for the nasty, mean spirited ‘humour’.

    I remember it for the transphobic ‘joke’ that they just loved to use in all the trailers. (“Yikes! She’s a guy!”)

    I remember this movie for starring a fucking pedophile.

    This movie is ass and deserves to be forgotten.

      I thought you were mixing up this movie with Antz, because the pedo Woody Allen is in that movie. I didn’t realize Kevin Spacey is in Bug’s Life.

        Yes.

        (I only saw Antz but not A Bug’s Life, and just sort of assumed Antz had the more subversive social message because it wasn’t Disney.)

          Definitely. The collective workers rise up against the militaristic ruling class, after, of course, those rulers attempt to murder them all for their ‘glorious future’. Unfortunately, Antz and A Bug’s Life also share something else in common. Both star sex pests in the leading role.

          They came out close together and both featured ants as main protagonists. A Bug’s Life is the one pictured.

            Antz was the “copycat” movie that was rushed out to beat A Bug’s Life into the theaters. Back when animation studios even bothered with that shit.

        Yeah, but that was recently. It was A Bugs Life when I was a child, and it only recently changed. I want to guess it lasted around 20y, but I can’t be bothered to look it up. Anyway, it’s not like they tried to bury it.
