I really gotta applaud Disney for the idea of having Ant-Man "shrink" A Bug's Land into a glass dome in his hand. My heart really melted that time for Disney to preserve history by using a character from the replacement IP who is also an insect and capable of shrinking to show and tell others about his fondness about the insect theme park that used to be there.
@@FM7Studios That honestly makes me feel a bit better. I loved the bugs land area and it really got me upset that the area was gonna be replaced. But seeing the idea that ant-man decided to shrink the land in order to keep it safe makes me feel happy. I’m glad that they have not fully forgotten about the bug’s life area 🥹
@@spqrs02020it only happens occasionally and at random, so he might not bring it out at all for one day and then the next it’ll be in his hand the entire time he’s interacting with guests
ant-man holding the minature bug's land is probably the best send-off they could have done with that part of the park, if he showed me it i probably would have cried😭
Honestly my head cannon now is that Bug’s Land was accidentally grown by Pym tech and was only recently discovered by the Avengers who shrunk it back to norma size. It just makes the world of the parks feel very interconnected.
I loved a bugs land. It was immersive and had so much shade. Even though it was all kiddy rides, i enjoyed going there every time. It just felt classic pixar.
Forget the kids and corny kid rides. Waste of space. Adult rides is why I’m paying top dollars to go to Disneyland. Disney needs top rides and immersive worlds. Kids hardly enjoy much. They cry a lot also
@@blacklikethesun I actually loved a bugs world. It felt like an immersive world of bugs. It was sad it was replaced by warehouse boxes that don’t look nothing future whatsoever. But I’m actually referring to rides like it’s a small world or Pinocchio the boat ride. Anything that takes up space and is outdated or super slow and boring. Small world only looks nice at night but inside the ride is dull and annoying and the music? Needs to go.
@@jdos5643 the storybook land canal i can agree with but the thing is because space is so limited at disneyland proper, theres not much they can replace that area with that isnt a massive building that ruins sight lines with a simulator or a smaller coaster ride. Fantasy land has a classic charm. Its mainly for smaller kids but everyone can ride everything there. Small world is one of the most popular attractions in the world. It can get annoying but you only have to ride it once in awhile. Modern disney cant be trusted to make new rides because its all just simulators. HOWEVER, the real waste of space is....Tomorrow land. It cant be updated in a realistic manor. That land should be removed and re themed to something like an epcot or whatever.. or I would get rid of space mountain and retheme it to fantasia Bald mountain where you zoom around a giant chernabog animatronic in the center. Something like that... that land just needs to go. Massive buildings that go to waste
@@djguillyd I agree! From an employee that has done work with Disney Avengers Campus was the best decision to fit the theme! If you think about it when they had Bugs Land during Guardians Of The Galaxy Mission Breakout that really didn’t fit the theme. However when they had Bugs Land during Tower Of Terror that fit the theme more better!

Last year I went to Disneyland with my school marching band, and we walked through the backstage area for California adventure. There was one spot in a backstage parking lot with a few statues from a bugs land on display, and they still looked great!
I’m from Australia and I went to Disneyland in 2013 (I was 8). I didn’t remember this being a whole land but seeing the footage it all came flooding back. I’ve always had a very vivid memory of the movie that was 4D because the ‘bugs’ present were told to exit the auditorium first and we could feel little bumps moving under our seats which I thought was SO cool. I absolutely loved this land and I can’t belive it’s gone it had so much character (not to mention how integral and nostalgic a bugs life is as far as children’s movies goes for me and millions of other kids).
One of the speech therapist I went to every Friday, she was a huge Disneyland fan and her father was an architect for A Bugs Land. When I asked if she was excited about Avengers Campus, she said that they replaced her father’s work. Lol
One more thing is in the Webslingers load station, you can actually see a maintenance panel for the Hopper animatronic. The label still says HOPPER AA.
We lived at Bugs Land when our sons were toddlers. We spent so many hours there each trip! I have tons of home videos of them on the various rides! This tears me up thinking about the way things were.
I managed to go to bugs land at, what? 5 five years old? I dunno. The only thing I remember is the giant fair and the train. However I do recall riding the guardians of the galaxy ride
I remember going to those restrooms and i heard one of the characters (on the speakers) say about how "bathrooms aren't bathrooms because you don't take a bath in them"
Loved this place. When we first went in '06, it was the only area in all of DCA that I thought was any good. The reason? Theming. It was themed to a great Disney movie. It was also perfect as my kids practically grew up going to this land. It was a right a passage for all three of them. We absolutely LOVED Heimlich's Chew-Chew - it was a great story, funny, lots of surprises. And I loved the idea of entering a land feeling like a bug from the movie. So great! I was sad to see it go. But it coincided with all my kids being of age where Bug's Land wasn't their favorite. But Marvel is! So, it totally worked out for me, though I miss the land itself. The biggest let down is that they didn't put Heimlich's Chew-Chew anywhere else in the park.
I'm sad that I never really got to experience it. 😞 I wound up on Heimlich's Chew Chew Train in 2018 before it closed down. Did you get to experience it as a kid?
I had no idea about that Ant Man detail they left in the park. That's surprisingly a soulful detail in a soulless park nowadays, I guess there are still some people who care about the park
Great vid! When I went to Disneyland for the first time, my friend and I went on Heimlich's Chew Chew because we saw the big line and thought it had to be some really cool, exciting ride. ...when it ended we were both like, "That was it?!" It was so tame! We were so disappointed. But it was a cute little land, and it's always a shame when something gets destroyed at the parks, even if it wasn't the most popular or coolest thing.
You know A Bug’s Land/Flik’s Fun Fair at Disney’s California Adventure was inspired by the 1998 Disney/Pixar animated movie 🍿 A Bug’s Life, opened on October 7, 2002, been there for nearly 16 years and closed for good on September 4, 2018 to make way for Avengers Campus
Here’s my list of the 5 attractions in Flik’s Fun Fair . Flik’s Flyers . Heimlich’s Chew Chew Train . Francis’ Ladybug Boogie . Tuck and Roll’s Drive ‘Em Buggies . Princess Dot Puddle Park
The Bug land area was so awe inspiring. It felt like magic to be that "small" to have blades of grass and clovers towering over you like trees. Something very unique and special you cant get anywhere else. The Avengers stuff meh. Not even interested on going on the spiderman ride. Didnt need another soulless rail shooter screen game, Disney has WAY to many. Would rather have had a Avatar Pandora themed land take over that area instead of the Avengers. Avengers isnt magical or awe inspiring. Its just boring.
'A Bug's Life' was the very first movie I took my young son to see in the late 90s. A movie filled with the Disney integrity and values of honesty, loyalty, devotion to family and inspired individual free will to work against a totalitarian mentality of servitude. I'm grateful for that film to portray the values from Disney inspired within me from Walt's original family-fare of the 60s and early 70s. In the 21st century the same cannot be said for what Disney in name only has de-evolved into.
I wish they would have kept A Bugs Land and just added a D or E Ticket dark ride based on a bugs life, where we go through Bug City or the Ant Hill and escape Hopper.
Some extra information to other discarded props from a Bugs Land that I know of, A test mock of Flik’s animatronic head model has been *auctioned off on ebay, And one of the Bug Lamp Posts set around A Bug’s Land has been recycled and has found a new home at the recently renovated Pixar Place Hotel. Another Bug Lamp Post was also auctioned off on ebay.*
@@eliassmeke3991 When it comes to ride technology it wasn’t very innovative, however it fulfilled its purpose in bringing in attractions for younger guests.
Playing on the spashpad in a Bugs Land was my daughter's favorite thing to do her first time at DCA. She was 3 so it's not too surprising but I'm glad I got some good video of it.
DCA 2001 was like a slightly slicked-up Six Flags park. Which is why Bugs Land was to Bountiful Farms, what DisneySea is to DCA. Although today's Disney Co under its current CEO is a creative-political mess, what Michael Eisner allowed over 20 years ago in certain ways is just as bad.
During a trip to DCA while A Bug’s Land was being de-constructed, my friend and I saw Flik near the Mickey’s Philharmagic building and I immediately walked toward him for a photo. My guess is that they wanted to bring out Flik for a while since A Bug’s Land was being removed.
A bugs land was my childhood If it wasn’t for those fucking avengers we still would have it today!! That’s why i hate those dang avengers, and i ever go to disney California adventure again im not gonna set foot in avengers crappus
I won't set foot in Avengers campus. It doesn't make sense with the theme of the park. Also upset the eyesore of GOTG messing up sight lines in the park. It looks like an alien ship crashed into old Hollywood... Disney is turning themselves into 6 Flags.
Bugs land was the ultimate in cute themed land, compared to Avengers campus where it doesn't feel particularly "themed" at all, simply throwing nods to all the characters in one big cement covered pad really doesn't feel give it much in the way of cohesiveness. That said Bugs land was great when my child was ... well essentially free to get into Disneyland, all 1 times I've done that, but if you don't have tiny kids then the attractions are kind of meh, Hemlich's Chew Chew feels like it's straight out of a parking lot traveling carnival ride, the "bumper" cars were definitely made not to give baby's whiplash, and Flick's Fliers... well that felt like the only real ride an adult wouldn't mind riding but still easily more could be done elsewhere in DCA so that whole area was a walk through area from one part of the park to the next. I mean the Bug's Life show was nice, don't get me wrong but that wasn't going to carry the whole area, it was too small to really be called a "land" it was an area for tiny kids, akin to what Toontown was (minus Roger Rabbit), but once you have no use for a "toddler's area" I'm sorry but yeah you really want to just give a big fat skip to it and get me something better, unfortunately they only gave us Spiderman which is a cool ride but with Lightning Lane is infuriating, and they a bunch of themed stores/restaurants and shows.
avengers campus is awful. its a total let down. how do you go from 4 attractions to 1. it just doesn't make sense. the area also feels to open, and is really hard to follow along with the "story" of what is happening in the area. Bugs land used the space wisely, and the area felt never ending. i loved the giant clovers, and all the audio in the land, while avengers campus has this sort of meh audio and theming. sad that it had to go. :(
But i missed old DCA can you do the attraction where Ariel ride is now. Ms. Goldberg was in it. It had to dreaming about something California dream or the Golden Dream. Also i remember their was are where you could watch about the life about Walt Disney. Can you do the Muppets and the old art studio at DCA.
I didn’t get to do It’s tough to be a bug when we just went to animal kingdom. Found out it’s gonna be a new zootopia world. I’ll miss bug‘life but I do love zootopia.
this is a great video bro, but I gotta say, you sound and speak JUST LIKE Kevin Perjurer from Defunctland, almost thought this was a second account. Keep up the good work!
#DisneyDiva ❤ When you said usher in. We knew you were not talking about Usher lol. ❤ I know weak joke lol leftovers from the Superbowl lol. N I love Bugland and I missed it badly. However, since the pandemic, I have not been to DCA. I am not AP holder anymore and they make it harder now to it the passes especially the top passes which I need. Bc i can only go to Disneyland in March which late March my birthday and I go in Oct bc I love Halloween time at the park. So i have to buy regular tics and I can't afford both parks plus i am not into superheroes but Batman and I like to a degree the character Chadwick Boseman played and rip to him. But Batman, Joker, and Hailey Quinn are my favorites and that is DC.
@@FM7StudiosSadly... NOPE. My kids didn't like it either when they were little - we lived in OC and had annual passes and sometimes would go 2-3 times a week. They would cry. I can't blame them. I think what I didn't like was... 1) they took the original parking lot which was nostalgic in itself to try to create a money grab 2) DCA was like a tiny "wanna be" version of Epcot or the DisneyWorld areas. I really think they should have done something that wasn't a California theme... I mean you're already in California. If you want to go see a studio there's Universal or the lesser known (but more fun if you're into films like me) the Warner Bros tour... Paramount also has a tour. And if you want to see Hollywood Blvd... just go there. ETC> ETC> I suppose they thought they would grab the out of country tourist and give them a dose of California, except that for the longest the majority of visitors were locals. I saw a stat that shows it is around 71%-80%. So I just can't see why they would push California. To take the parking lot and diminish the allure (if you can remember it) of parking and walking towards the great gates to enter Disneyland to make a pretty dull IMO experience was a waste of billions of dollars. But if you have to for money grab they should have made it a different experience altogether. I know others love it... I just can't see the point of it.

Avengers Campus occupied the former space where A Bug’s Land/Flik’s Fun Fair was
Bug's Life has not been forgotten

One more remnant that is less talked about is how the statues that were placed around the land are now behind the Hyperion Theater in the backlot.

I mean the Bug's Life show was nice, don't get me wrong but that wasn't going to carry the whole area, it was too small to really be called a "land" it was an area for tiny kids, akin to what Toontown was (minus Roger Rabbit), but once you have no use for a "toddler's area" I'm sorry but yeah you really want to just give a big fat skip to it and get me something better, unfortunately they only gave us Spiderman which is a cool ride but with Lightning Lane is infuriating, and they a bunch of themed stores/restaurants and shows.
avengers campus is awful. its a total let down. how do you go from 4 attractions to 1. it just doesn't make sense. the area also feels to open, and is really hard to follow along with the "story" of what is happening in the area. Bugs land used the space wisely, and the area felt never ending. i loved the giant clovers, and all the audio in the land, while avengers campus has this sort of meh audio and theming. sad that it had to go. :(
is there like. lore behind the parks. why tf does Antman just HAVE that section of the park XD
What do you mean 😢 a bug’s land might not have been the most innovative land ever?
Most of it’s attractions we’re not unique to the park.
But i missed old DCA can you do the attraction where Ariel ride is now. Ms. Goldberg was in it. It had to dreaming about something California dream or the Golden Dream.
Also i remember their was are where you could watch about the life about Walt Disney. Can you do the Muppets and the old art studio at DCA.
Ah yes, Ms. Golburg played Calafia the spirit of California!
Can ya talk about why they closed splash mountain
I’m planning to do a video on Splash Mountain video when the new attraction opens.
This was a good video. Where did you get the old footage of DCA from at the beginning?
Here you go! ua-cam.com/video/M8spIZyhaIw/v-deo.htmlsi=gFSEkci9yeTYCkob
@@FM7Studios Thanks! I like old footage like that.
I didn’t get to do It’s tough to be a bug when we just went to animal kingdom. Found out it’s gonna be a new zootopia world. I’ll miss bug‘life but I do love zootopia.
It’s fun for an older crowd and terrifying for children, lol!
Never got to see Bugs Land but wasn't really impressed with Advengers Campus
11years and 2 days later I was born
A good video. One tip leave the music running just make it quiet.
Thanks for the feedback!
@FM7Studios up to you friend. Subscribed.
@@JustLittleOldMe9 Thanks!
If they built California adventure today they would have had "fentynl forest"
Amazing vid!
Thank you!
Still waiting for a sequel
video starts @2:50
It was so much better then.
this is a great video bro, but I gotta say, you sound and speak JUST LIKE Kevin Perjurer from Defunctland, almost thought this was a second account. Keep up the good work!
Thank you so much, that’s a massive compliment!
@@FM7Studios It totally is! I'll check back around on your 1M sub special to say Ive been here since the start.
@@mateo6116 Ha, maybe one day!
Nice video but do your research cause it was a big success when California adventure opened
Exactly 4:00
#DisneyDiva ❤
When you said usher in. We knew you were not talking about Usher lol. ❤
I know weak joke lol leftovers from the Superbowl lol.
N I love Bugland and I missed it badly.
However, since the pandemic, I have not been to DCA. I am not AP holder anymore and they make it harder now to it the passes especially the top passes which I need. Bc i can only go to Disneyland in March which late March my birthday and I go in Oct bc I love Halloween time at the park. So i have to buy regular tics and I can't afford both parks plus i am not into superheroes but Batman and I like to a degree the character Chadwick Boseman played and rip to him. But Batman, Joker, and Hailey Quinn are my favorites and that is DC.
Avengers campus sucks
I've never liked DCA.
Not even Cars Land? 🫢
@@FM7StudiosSadly... NOPE. My kids didn't like it either when they were little - we lived in OC and had annual passes and sometimes would go 2-3 times a week. They would cry. I can't blame them. I think what I didn't like was...
1) they took the original parking lot which was nostalgic in itself to try to create a money grab
2) DCA was like a tiny "wanna be" version of Epcot or the DisneyWorld areas.
I really think they should have done something that wasn't a California theme... I mean you're already in California. If you want to go see a studio there's Universal or the lesser known (but more fun if you're into films like me) the Warner Bros tour... Paramount also has a tour. And if you want to see Hollywood Blvd... just go there. ETC> ETC>
I suppose they thought they would grab the out of country tourist and give them a dose of California, except that for the longest the majority of visitors were locals. I saw a stat that shows it is around 71%-80%. So I just can't see why they would push California.
To take the parking lot and diminish the allure (if you can remember it) of parking and walking towards the great gates to enter Disneyland to make a pretty dull IMO experience was a waste of billions of dollars. But if you have to for money grab they should have made it a different experience altogether.
I know others love it... I just can't see the point of it.
