Embark on an incredible journey with one little ant as he searches for a brave band of warriors to help him battle the bullying grasshoppers who threaten his home.

Product Description

Product Description

Journey inside the world of bugs in this Epic of miniature proportions. Crawling with imaginative characters, hilarious laughs and colorful animation, Walt Disney Pictures' Presentation of A Pixar Animation Studios Film, A BUG'S LIFE, will "delight everyone -- young, old or six-legged." (People Magazine). In this 2-disc set you'll step behind the scenes for a look at the innovation and teamwork that resulted in this ingenious film. Loaded with bonus features -- including animation not seen in theaters, abandoned sequences and multiple surprises -- A BUG'S LIFE COLLECTOR'S EDITION offers something for everyone from families to film lovers!|The film is based loosely on the Aesop's fable, "The Ants And The Grasshopper."|One of the challenges for the animators was giving the bugs human emotions. As one put it, "How do you make an insect with no eyebrows look surprised?"

Set Contains:

Codirector Andrew Stanton warmly calls this collector's edition of A Bug's Life the "Super Genius" edition (referring to another animated delight, Wile E. Coyote). That's a better title, since this double DVD set is never as stuffy and ho-hum as many collector's editions. On the second disc, which is jam-packed with details on how the movie was made, there isn't a single boring snippet. There must be a creed at Pixar Animation Studios dictating everything must be fun. When Stanton, director John Lasseter, or any technician comes onscreen, there are jokes, camera muggings, and controlled insanity. But there's a method to their madness. For example, the storyboarding process--sketching out the entire picture before cameras roll--isn't just explained; it's storyboarded itself. Another highlight is an early presentation of the film's subject matter that takes on the flavor of a poorly dubbed Japanese film of the '60s. There's also a wonderful process using the DVD format's rarely used angle feature that allows the viewer to go between pencil sketches, color drawings, and the finished project to see how the art progresses to the screen. The film, presented here in both widescreen and recomposed full-frame (the latter also explained on the disc), is the first DVD created by a digital source for the purest presentation possible. Whatever the presentation, this "Super Genius" edition certainly gives one pause to consider what super geniuses the folks at Pixar truly are. --Doug Thomas

5.0 out of 5 stars Necessario in una collezione
Reviewed in Italy on July 18, 2020
Più che del film in sé, di cui comunque dirò qualcosina tra poco, credo sia da analizzare la custodia dello stesso. Questa edizione è infatti soprattutto pensata per coloro i quali, fan della Pixar, vogliano avere una bella collezione da sfoggiare in uno scaffale con tutti i capolavori della casa di produzione fondata da Steve Jobs.
In questo senso io, che ricado in pieno nella definizione di cui sopra, adoro la grafica minimale di queste edizioni(peccato non ci siano in 4k con la stessa grafica della copertina).
In particolare molto bella la sopraccoperta in cartoncino, come da foto, che nella descrizione di Amazon non risulta chiarissimo esserci o meno, quindi nel dubbio ho allegato foto della scatola con e senza la stessa sovracoperta.

Per quanto riguarda il film in sé credo che questo sia uno dei più sottovalutati della Pixar. A partire dall'audio: ascoltare questo blu Ray con un impianto audio adeguato sarà un piacere per le orecchie grazie alla presenza di una delle colonne sonore più ispirate e di atmosfera sentite in un film Pixar. Lato "tecnico" da segnalare, tuttavia, la mancanza della codifica in master audio in italiano(classico) mentre in inglese comunque la traccia si ferma al master audio 5.1 e non 7.1 ed è quantomeno insolito.

La componente visiva è straordinaria: rimasterizzato rispetto alla vecchia edizione in dvd, questo film rende sicuramente meglio e fa sentire molto poco il peso dei comunque ormai parecchi anni(parliamo di una pellicola del 1999 interamente composta in cgi). Si sente che non sia la stessa cosa "buttata lì" su un nuovo supporto giusto per fare una nuova versione, miglioramenti a livello sostanziale ce ne sono e pure parecchi.

Del film in sé posso dire, ribadendolo, che credo sia uno dei più sottovalutati nel folto e in effetti straordinario panorama di capolavori prodotti da Pixar. Storia semplice, certo, classica metafora di fondo non eccessivamente originale e profonda, soprattutto se si pensa a quello che di lì a poco sarebbe stato sfornato dallo stesso studio di animazione con Monsters&co, ma ben fatta.
Sin dalle prime battute il film è permeo di un'atmosfera rilassante soprattutto grazie alla già elogiata colonna sonora; quindi presenta dei personaggi a loro modo memorabili, dal protagonista Flik fino ai comprimari(ma non per questo meno importanti) Heimlich e Stecco.

Consigliabile quindi sia per i più piccini, per la grandissima qualità dell'immagine, sia per i collezionisti.
