I definitely recommend checking out at least one or two of them one day.&nbsp;<span style="font-size: 10pt;">I'm a big enough fan of the genre that I could definitely help recommending some of the better beach party films. </span><i style="font-size: 10pt;">Beach Party</i><span style="font-size: 10pt;"> and </span><i style="font-size: 10pt;">Beach Blanket Bingo</i><span style="font-size: 10pt;"> are considered by most to be the best of the bunch. You might want to check out one or both of those.&nbsp;</span><i style="font-size: 10pt;">Beach Blanket Bingo</i><span style="font-size: 10pt;">&nbsp;is often considered to be the best by critics, but </span><i style="font-size: 10pt;">Beach Party</i><span style="font-size: 10pt;"> came first and is my personal favorite.</span></div><div style="font-style: normal;"><span style="font-size: 10pt;"><br></span></div><div style="font-style: normal;"><span style="font-size: 13.3333px;">As for that clip, I remember first seeing it while watching AMC's American Pop, which was a short-lived block on AMC where the network would air an old movie (often a beach party film) and then follow it up with old trailers, music clips, and drive-in movie ads to round out the two hour time slot. It makes me very nostalgic just thinking about it because that block was the beginning of me becoming fascinated with '60s pop culture.</span></div>SupermanSep 06, 2017View

37370Antz vs A Bugs Life<blockquote rel="echidna64" style="font-weight: normal; font-style: normal;"><b>echidna64 wrote :<br></b><i>I do prefer Antz, the termite scene alone gives it the edge.

I love the dialogue between Z and Barbatus leading into the battle:<div style="font-weight: normal; font-style: normal;"><br></div><div style=""><b><u>Z</u>: So these... these termites... their... their... these guys are not going to put up much of a fight right? I mean, we're talking about pushovers right?</b></div><div style="font-style: normal;"><b><br></b></div><div style="font-style: normal;"><b><u>Barbatus</u>: Not really kid. Their five times our size, and they shoot acid from their foreheads.</b></div><div style="font-style: normal;"><b><br></b></div><div style="font-style: normal;"><b>*Z stops walking in horror at what he just heard*</b></div><div style="font-style: normal;"><b><br></b></div><div style="font-style: normal;">But I wouldn't go so far as to say that Flik had only a one real character trait. I think he is very similar to Hercules from the 97 Disney film: He's a good hearted person that want's to&nbsp;<span style="font-size: 10pt;">get on the right side of his community. He's destructive when all he tries to do is help. He doesn't feel like he belongs, and all he wants is to be liked by the people around him.</span></div>Rick Ace RhodesSep 06, 2017View
