* [[Awesome Music]]: Randy Newman's [[Aaron Copland|Copland]]-esque score is fit for an [[Tagline|epic of miniature proportions.]]
* [[Ear Worm]]: The little flute-sounding song that some ants are performing for the circus bugs.
* [[Fandom Rivalry]]: It has one with ''[[Antz]]'', because both are animated bugs movies released in 1998. ''Antz'' is more adult-oriented while ''A Bug's Life'' is more family-friendly.
* [[Foe Yay Shipping]]: Hopper and Flik. Some people couldn't explain why they kept watching their [[No-Holds-Barred Beatdown]] scene repeatedly when they were children, they sure can as they got older.
* [[Genius Bonus]]: Those familiar with black widow spider mating habits might view some of Rosie's lines in a different light. See also [[Getting Crap Past the Radar]].
* [[Harsher in Hindsight]]: Hopper's speech about falling grain became surprisingly relevant now that [[Kevin Spacey]] faced dozens of allegations in 2017.
* [[Moral Event Horizon]]: He had been extorting food from the ants for years, but Hopper crosses this when he decides he's going to murder the queen.
* [[Needs More Love]]: In the Pixar [[Canon]], this film seems to be the most forgotten.
** In the documentary ''[[The Pixar Story]]'' John Lasseter, and many of the other animators give off a sense that this movie is an [[Old Shame]]. One of the animators explained that they spent more time trying to make the movie better than [[Toy Story (franchise)|Toy Story]], instead of simply trying to make the film good in its own right.
** It worked out in the end, despite a couple of cold hard truths. [[Tear Jerker|This particular movie is very touching]].
* [[Overshadowed by Controversy]]: One of the reasons why the film is still talked about is the production feud between it and ''Antz''.
* [[Values Resonance]]: The ants standing up for themselves against the grasshoppers aged well.
* [[Viewer Gender Confusion]]: ''Francis''
* [[Visual Effects of Awesome (Sugar Wiki)|Visual Effects of Awesome]]: The computer animation was a step up from the first ''Toy Story'' and still holds up.
* [[What Do You Mean It's Not Political?]]: [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HmUD9Jhfh_U Hopper's speech about "keeping those ants in line."] It's been regarded as a metaphor for everything from the distribution of wealth to the alleged "[[Conspiracy Theorist|New World Order]]."
* [[The Woobie]]: Flik.
