If you enjoyed the ideologies in “A Bugs Life”, might i suggest “Antz”, lots of individualism vs. collectivization…

I was surprised by your Ayn Rand-like analysis. Certainly history shows Walt Disney was not on the socialist barricades.

Are you saying Disney changed its capitalist philosophy under Eisner & Katzenberg?

I’ve heard that Walt Disney himself was an advocate of a number of socialist policies such as the income tax, and made propaganda movies advocating them around WWII, thought I’ve been unable to find evidence of this.

As a disclaimer, I admit that I get too hung up on ideology sometimes, and miss the wider sense-of-life theme a movie might have. The heroic characters, bright environments and happy endings of animated Disney movies overshow the horrible underlying ideologies some of them have.
