Ants In The Movie The Queen's Society

Improved Essays
The movie Antz highlighted different elements of different societies. There were types of society in the movie, The Queen’s, The General’s, Z’s and Insectopia’s. In my opinion, the most successful society of the four options is The Queen’s Society. The Queen’s Society is a monarchy, with different levels of “power”. With the Queen’s Society, the ants were assigned different tasks. Near the beginning of the movie, you can see worker ants digging a tunnel. These ants were assigned the job a “worker ant”. The “worker ant” is in my opinion the lowest level of power in the society. There were also soldier ants shown throughout the movie. On a higher level, there is The General and his accomplices. This is the most successful society because ants …show more content…
This would lead to a problem because worker ants are not as capable fighters as soldier ants, leading to a weaker colony. This is evident during the phase where Z and Weaver “switched places”, and Z went out to battle. During the battle, Z was hiding while all the other soldier ants were battling away (at ¼ of the movie). The Queen’s Society guarantees that every ant is assigned a proper job, which results in a very strong colony. This is shown throughout the entire movie as worker ants were always digging, and soldier ants were ready for battle. On the other hand, the society of Z’s guarantees the best quality for its citizens. In my opinion, Z’s society would have been a democracy (not sure because Z’s society was not shown in the movie). In this society, the ants would be able to choose to do things, which would guarantee that every ant enjoyed what they were doing. Insectopia would also be a good society for the ants, but there is no leader. A society without a leader would eventually collapse and everyone would be back to the bottom and would have to start again. Z’s society would strike a balance between individualism, democracy, and

    Aunt Alexandra and Atticus didn’t always see eye to eye on how Scout should be raised. Since Atticus had been raising Scout alone since she was two, he had never forced her to act like a girl, as it was something he probably wasn’t familiar with and wouldn’t have been able to teach. He simply wished that Scout would make her own decisions and learn from her own experiences. Jem was taught by Atticus, since Atticus was a gentleman Jem simply had to observe. For Scout though, observing wouldn’t have been enough.…

The poems To a Wasp and The Writer, provide vivid and powerful examples of similes and metaphors, which literally “build” the poems. This paper will focus on the analysis of the figures of speech used in these two poems and the meaning that they add to them.…

    Anthem: A Bland Society Anthem. The society where everyone is held down by rules, regulations, and people who think freedom and individuality will be the downfall of society. There are a few of these reasons, but they are all not good ones. The main purpose is that they do not want to recreate the unmentionable times, which I think to believe that is either the World War II era, or in an alternate universe, there was another war much after that, maybe in our time or even later in the future.…

Although it seems like a deathly globe-renowned issue is in mainly todays -mostly in teens- current society, Sue Monk Kidd demonstrates how depression may have affected those over fifty years ago- especially the South-American colored people of the Civil Rights Era in 1964.
