25 Years Later 'A Bug's Life' Still Remains Without a Sequel: Here's Why Pixar Needs to Change That

Are you ready to feel old? On this day twenty-five years ago, Pixar released the wonderful animated comedy film A Bug's Life, which captured audiences all around the world by pulling on their heartstrings with its relatable topics and lessons. Two-and-a-half decades later, the movie remains without a sequel joining a semi-long list of other Pixar classics that have been given the same treatment which includes: 2012's Brave, and 2001's Monsters, Inc (no Monsters University is not a sequel—it's a prequel). When it comes to the topic of whether or not certain one-off films need a sequel, the debate is one that often spawns two sides with one side feeling as though the singular film fine the way it is and anything more would ruin it. The other side, however, is open to a potential sequel even if, admittedly, the desire is one rooted in favoritism and perhaps nostalgia.

If you're being objective, both sides can be understood. For example, fans of The Incredibles begged for a sequel for over a decade, only for some to be disappointed when The Incredibles 2 came out in 2018. That said, The Incredibles did end on a cliffhanger with a new potential villain presenting a threat, and the first one was so popular that it was always going to be impossible for some to be satisfied.

When it comes to a A Bug's Life, however, we're on the side of feeling the film deserves sequel, but having that opinion means you needs to present a genuine reason why, along with a potential direction that audiences might find intriguing. So here's our case:

These are our thoughts in regards to A Bug's Life potentially sequel—maybe you dig it, maybe you don't, but we can all agree that the film is amazing, and should be rewatched in honor of its 25th anniversary.
