To me, Antz is the smarter and funnier movie - I know Woody Allen puts some people off though. Plus it has an unbelievable voice cast.

But of course, "You my huggybear!"

Note to self: Watch Antz already!


It's interesting that the two mentioned so far are those two (I usually come up against much more resistance to the idea that Casino is better than Goodfellas in the first instance).

I'm actually a huge Woody Allen fan, and yet I much preferred A Bug's Life. It's been a long time, but I remember the animation being clearly more polished and impressive in A Bug's Life. The voicework in that too was amazing. (Kevin Spacey's evil grasshopper comes to mind). I remember the theme of Antz feeling very laboured. I should sit down and watch them both again some day. Talking of re-watches...I used to prefer Wyatt Earp until I re-watched it recently. I'm fairly sure that's the more historically grounded film, but I found it to be an interminable bore second time around, whereas Tombstone is far more entertaining.
