17:55 cool fun fact: the mosquito Flik runs into at the bar is voiced by Roger Bumpass, who would soon go on to voice Squidward in SpongeBob SquarePants the same year

Apparently Thumper isn't even a grasshopper, he's a locust! I forget the actual science behind it, but there's something that can happen to a grasshopper that actually converts them into an entirely different insect.

Fun fact: A Bug’s Life is technically a retelling of another story. A very old story, in fact. Specifically, the movies Magnificent Seven, and of course, Seven Samurai. They both have the same story. A village of defenseless farmers are being terrorized by an army of bandits and brigands. And one of them sets out to find a group of warriors, usually seven, to help the villagers fight and defend themselves against their enemy.

21:08 The Queen's pet is an aphid. She said it in the beginning of the movie but you must've missed it 😁

12:53 The realization that Francis is a guy, lol!

The circus bugs are the best thing about this movie as a whole

Apparently, the old man who repaired Woody in Toy Story 2 was the star of a short story made of this movie as a bonus feature. It was called 'Jerry's Game'.

you're never gonna love birds when you're bug-sized, trust me.

16:02 I’ve seen this movie at least 100 times and I’ve NEVER noticed the pizza planet truck 🤯🤯

The title is a marvelous way to describe this masterclass movie. The era when this movie along with many other Pixar and Dreamworks films came out was undefeated

I haven't finished the entire reaction as of yet so idk if y'all clocked it, but in regards to the little green guy the queen carries around: As can be assumed by his name, 'Aphie' is an Aphid, a type of insect that eats sap, fruit, vegetation, etc. They can be a wide variety of colours but most people can recognize the green :))

I also remember how much this film along with Antz caused a public feud between Disney/Pixar & Dreamworks back in '98

Hopper is an underrated menacing villain. He is as terrifying as Heath Ledger’s Joker

The "little green thing" the queen holds is a pest that eats leaves called an aphid. It's a food source for some bugs like ladybugs. Which would've been funny to see that ladybug just take a horrific bite out of Aphie.

A Bug's Life is one of my favorite PIXAR movies

From what I remember. A Bug's Life is based off a old story from Japan about a poor village being forced to pay tribute to Samurai for their protection from bandits. They resolve the issue buy hiring street performers to act as decoys for a final attack. It's kind of made a apparent with the ending of the film with its firework display. As fireworks were invented in Japan.

Love this movie as a kid! I highly recommend “Finding Nemo” for your next Pixar reaction if you guys haven’t watched it, probably the best Pixar movie ever made. That movie gives you the feels. The animation still holds up today, especially the ocean. Truly a remarkable film.

30:08 the reason the music sounds similar is because it’s by the same composer, Randy Newman, who did the music for Toy Story and Cars

Pixar’s most underrated gem is Luca

12:51 I’m pretty sure anyone who accidentally mistakes a boy character for a girl or a female character for a masculine one can relate to this scene.

To be honest, This movie reminds me “The Ant and the Grasshopper”, the old animated Disney version and children’s books version. I remember listening to those books during story time in elementary school library.

A Bug's Life is one of my favorite childhood movies

21:10 She literally said toward the beginning of the movie that he's an Aphid. Hence the name she gave him, Aphie.

6:51 actually after some research I think ants eat grasshoppers, and grasshoppers eat plants and dead insects also the Pizza Planet Truck and A113 are seen in most Pixar films. John Ratzenburger (voice of PT Flea and Hamm the piggy bank) has voiced in every Pixar film from Toy Story (1995) to Soul (2020). Some of his voice roles are harder to spot than others, the reason he has voiced in that many films is Ratzenburger was (and possibly still is) considered Pixar's good luck charm.

I feel like if this movie came out today it would be praised as one of pixar's best in years. It coming out between the first two toy stories and then followed by a decade of bangers deffinatly left it to be overshadowed

12:57 What a low down dirty shame, trying to get with Wayman??? 🤣

You guys should have watched the "deleted scenes" of toy story 2

17:55 voice of Squidward btw. Rodger Bumpass

I LOVE the colors and the fun world of the bugs. It’s honestly super good besides the list revealed scene. It’s epic, fun, funny. Hopper is a great villain and his scene explaining power is chilling, and the final confrontation where the ants are rallied to Endgame the grasshoppers is still so powerful. It’s crazy how a film about bugs feels like one of Pixar’s biggest films. I still love the final song “The Time of Your Life”.

Flaming death, bloopers, and the big fight were the ones that got me sold

I love Bug's life I used watched it all the time when I used to have a vhs when I was younger. It was a great movie. Also I played the Bug's life game on Playstation 2 but I never finished the game because the beginning of the game was very easy but when I continued it got a little harder.

Fun facts: this is the first letterbox aspect ratio of Pixar movie and Pixar villain’s death, before syndrome from the incredibles.

You guys should check out the Pixar bloopers they’re pretty funny

Hopper is a cool villain, one of my favorites from the Pixar films.

15:42 No, YOU'RE the one who's fired! 😂😂

That scene with Hopper dropping all the food on the 3 grasshoppers? They’re dead. And it still terrifies me from this day.

A Bug’s Land was the name of the area at Disney California Adventure which opened back in 2002 but was replaced by Marvel’s Avengers Campus in 2021.

I think this is the third most underrated pixar movie

It's funny you guys mentioned that there should be A Bug's Life game because there actually was one on PS1 and it was pretty decent, but I agree, a Modern PS4 Bug's Life game with huge levels, tons of missions and mini games and Modern Graphics would hit super hard, even a Toy Story 2 Buzz Light-year to the Rescue remake like that would be nice If anyone has any cool ideas for how these types of games would look, please comment them in my replies here pls I'd love to hear them

15:31 Reactor 1: Looks in horror at a character possibly dying Reactor 2: Laughs his ass off at said character getting a third degree burn! XD

Yes, I'm so glad you guys reacted to this underrated gem

The Middle Child of the Pixar Family and the most under appreciated movie this movie is a classic

React to Robots (2005) movie next 😊😊😊

Too this date, I still consider Hopper as my most favorite evilest Disney/PIXAR Villain, I was thrilled that you compare him to Negan from The Walking Dead.

15:31 - 15:52 I love this reaction in this scene of movie and is my part favorite 😂😂😂😂😂

15:31 I knew one of them would laugh at this part XD

I'm completely convinced, those two Hungarian pillbugs were the inspiration for the Minions.

Man this brings back so much memories

Even as a kid I thought the CGI looked so realistic, especially the water. Still holds up!

About the little green dude the old ant keeps (from wikipedia, because that's SO trustworthy) He's an Aphid, Aphids are small sap-sucking insects and members of the superfamily Aphidoidea. Common names include greenfly and blackfly, although individuals within a species can vary widely in color.

Literally one of Pixar's best. It's one of my favorite movies. Came out like 3 years after the first Toy Story.

LET’S FREAKIN GO!! I’m so happy you guys finally checked out A Bug’s Life it really made my day!

The food falling over reminds me of Over the Hedge.

26:36 _Bye Bye Birdie_ reference FTW For those who don't know, it's an old musical movie starring Dick van Dyke, thankfully *not* doing a crappy Cockney accent.

16:02 Guys there’s a pizza planet truck but look at the trailer if you ever see MONSTERS INC. you will know what I’m talking about keep that in mind 😂😂😂😂

I’m kinda surprised that A Bug’s Life is still a one-off movie. Don’t get me wrong, it’s a good movie (and a childhood favorite of mine) on its own and probably would be better off as a single film. But sometimes, I wonder if a sequel would work for this one.

I owned The Bug’s Life Game on the PS 1. Now I feel old 😂

This one of my favorite childhood movies besides Cinderella and Toy's Story. I just love most PIXAR movies. I still watch this every now and then. I think I still have the cassette somewhere in the storage. There was a bugs life game. I remember playing it too but it was only for a short time cause I think it was a demo?

This movie had competition the year it was released. This movie and DreamWorks' first animated movie, Antz, decided to come out around the same time. Both have a similar concept, but approached it differently. This film ended up being the better one of the two.

Awesome, I LOVED A BUG'S LIFE! 😄 I am happy you two enjoyed this forgotten Disney/PIXAR animated film, this one along with The Prince Of Egypt are my favorite movie from the year of my birth 1998.

That was me at 17:12 when I tried some ghost pepper buffalo wings for the first time the other day

Hopper's demise is honestly pretty up there in terms of horrifying Disney/Pixar deaths. Getting eaten alive by (adorable) giant monsters doesn't sound quick and painless.

Tuck and Roll speak Hungarian. Also, when I was younger, Even though BYOB does mean "bring your own beer", I always thought that since it's based around bugs, I thought it meant bring your own bug.

46:34 I remember when I watched this movie and _Dumbo_ as a kid, I was confused how a liquid was meant to catch on fire. Oh, if only I knew...

That pizza planet truck has actually been in some other Pixar movies and you missed it

If you watch the end credits of Toy Story 2 during the bloopers, there is a brief scene of the Bugs Life characters joking about having a sequel. Really, they're a cameo in Toy Story; you can also see them quickly during the movie when Buzz chops down the branches while on the way to Al's

24:00 Holy crap, after having repeatedly watched this movie as a kid and a few more times as an adult, I'm only now noticing that the inside of Flik's mouth is blue. Not that it's important in any way; just an interesting obversation.

This was the VERY first movie I saw in theaters, it was so amazing and I loved it

I like how Flik is different than the rest of the ants and just wants to be more innovative.

3:16 In real life, queen ants actually have wings once they become adults, as do male ants - they use it for a single flight where they go to find a mate, then the young queen ant loses her wings and finds a home to start a colony, and the male... I think dies shortly thereafter. Also, worker ants are sterile females, contrary to popular belief.

Perfect for my Lunch break guys! And your right it’s a hidden gem

this reminds me of the walking dead. the saviors coming around collecting stuff from the communities. if not they die and stuff

I somehow read the title as “A Bug’s Life is a OVERCOOKED PIXAR HIDDEN GEM!”😂😂😂

Grasshoppers nor locusts eat ants, that's why they needed to threaten the ants to gather for the food they actually eat.

Bugs life my 2nd fav Pixar flick😅no pun intended 1Toy Story 2 2Bugs Life 3Toy Story

17:52 Squidward!

I saw a trailer of the life action The Bug’s life, but it’s not supposed to be as the movie, but it’s mostly about biology and observing bugs of about their lives. If you get what I mean, and it’s now on Disney+

they DID make a Bugs Life game in 2000 for the ps1 and it also was the first game backwards compatible for the ps2

React to Ants also. Released a month before A Bugs Life. Very similar but made from DreamWorks while A Bugs Life is from Disney and Pixar which is why it was more popular.

David hyde pierce "you little parasite" gets me every time 😅

I laughed the same way when Petey was set aflame too lmao

The circus bugs are actually the best group f characters in this he entire movie which I find it funny 🙂

This movie actually had one of the toughest video games ever. I actually was never able to beat the PS1 game.

9:39 cool cute leaf hat

37:33 Yeah, tell em go find a dog!

You should also watch the bloopers for toy story 2, bugs life and monsters inc After you watch monsters inc of course

There was indeed a Bugs Life game for playstation and it wasnt half bad. Holds a special place in my heart as the first game i ever beat but ive never heard someone else mention it.

Bugs life is legendary! I was born 96 and I love disney+ for allowing me to share movies and shows that I grew up with. I had bugs life and buzz lightyear pjs

29:32 And Ralph Wiggum wants to be a caterpillar, just like Heimlich.

A good title for this movie, but two other old Disney gems I recommend are Atlantis and Treasure Planet. They incorrectly assumed the latter was forgotten, so they made Strange World though.

Another great movie. Hopper is a pretty good villain.

51:37 Yeah, he's free from his terrible brother for good!

YeS!! Love thus movie! I found you guys today and this is video 3 ...top notch reactions!!!!! 😂😂😂

A bugs life one of my favorite Pixar movie that should've got more attention as other Pixar movie's

Yea!!!!!!! & Bug's Life when I was kid I played the hell out of this movie growing up!!!! I remember every word of this movie one of my Disney favorite movie 😁😁😁😀😀😀

You guys should watch DreamWorks Ants after this. It’s basically the same movie but darker and more mature. There’s also a lot of Easter eggs in this particular movie. First of all we have Jerry’s game, which is the guy who fixed Woody. And then the tree is the plant from Walle. And then of Course, the famous pizza planet truck and trailer house that we see in monsters Inc.

Adorable movie. You guys should do Antz by Dreamworks, which is PG.

Oh hell yeah this is my favorite Pixar movie of all time ❤️💯

I’m the only one in the theater as kid that cried when hopper died.
