I'm going to see it on it's (delayed  ) opening day in IMAX 3D...
Can't wait! I love ants!!!
Quote: "If all of humanity were to disappear, the remainder of life would spring back and flourish. The mass extinctions now underway would cease, the damaged ecosystems heal and expand outward. However, if all the ants somehow disappeared, the effect would be exactly the opposite, and catastrophic. Species extinction would increase even more than the present rate, and the land ecosystems would shrivel rapidly as the considerable services provided by these insects were pulled away."

Re: The Ant Bully C+
A great voice cast does not make up for a weak story and a mostly unexciting movie. There are some cool scenes, especially the showdown towards the end, but overall, it's rather slow and misses a lot of opportunities. If you want to see better animated flicks involving ants, just go and see A Bug's Life or Antz. Both of them are quite superior to this.
