I'm hoping @futurebird can settle an age old debate.

A Bug's Life vs. Antz

Which movie is better?

@atomicpoet

I'm not going to be popular for this... but neither.

Both commit the cardinal sin of making half the worker ants male, rather than making male alate characters. It's petty but that drove me nuts even as a kid.

when I was in college, there was someone (I forget the name) who had been involved with the computer graphics side of Antz, who came and gave a not-very-technical talk about the CG stuff, and another someone who did the same for Bug's Life. Then classmates dragged me to see both movies. My reaction to both was the same: some cool CG tech, but bad movies. My classmates were all sure Antz was far superior, I guess because it was aimed at 13-yr-olds rather than 6-yr-olds.
