I loved A Bug's Life when I was a kid and love it now.
I liked Antz when I was a kid and love it now.
That's 2 points for A Bugs Life, 1.5 for Antz.

Antz is alright but I never could get into it because visually it's not stimulating. Yes I know ants are brown in real life I have no problem with that but the characters themselves were boring as life to look and personality wise. I really can't pick a favorite because the personalities really didn't shine. Bug's Life was much better at actually developing the characters and the plot.

i think i saw antz around the same time as a bugs life. i like antz but i love a bugs life. i didn't like antz that much when i was a kid because it was ugly but when i see it now i know it just isn't as good i can't really explain why

I agree when it comes to the plot, but not to the characters. In fact, I thought "Antz" had more passable and more likeable characters. "A Bugs Life" had plenty of characters, which was one of the main flaws of the film; Too many characters to relate to. The most interesting characters (the circus gang, Dot, Hopper) had least screentime, while Flik and Atta, the main characters who had much screentime, were severly annoying. share
Agreed. Something I think I'm the only one who thinks so.

Antz was far better - better voice cast, more interesting characters, richer palette of colours used to create the world, etc, etc...
Love United. Hate Glazers.
Its too bad Antz flopped while A Bug's life was a success.

Antz is a bit more heavy and sophisticated...A Bug's Life is much cuter and family-friendly. I like both a lot. I prefer Flik to Z though just because Flik was so lovable and heroic. Z's great for his hilarious rambling.
Hey, it's the "mori no otomodachi!!
Exactly how was it better? No offence, but I really hate when users claim something, without giving a explanation for their statement.
While that is being said, I do agree that "Antz" was the better movie. Mainly because it was more mature, more sophisticated and more fun. While the plot wasn't original, I enjoyed the characters, the voice acting, the pacing and the animation.
"A Bugs Life" is a fun and cute movie, too, but it's hampered by some flaws (too many characters, unlikeable protagonists and preachy and formulaic story).
