However, it's soon revealed he's not actually with her, as he's using a 'Sprite', a piece of technology projecting Lenina, and he's living alone in a run-down city, perhaps beneath New London. Mustafa warns Indra is still out there, like a lost and angry hurt child, and warns she could do bad things.įinally, we see John living a seemingly idyllic life with Lenina, similar to the one he described when they first got together. Later in the story Antz, the evil General Mandible (who symbolized.Lenina Crowne is seen speaking with Mustafa, presumably being offered the role as the new Director of Stability, or something similar, as she asks "Why me?" and Mustafa tells her because she's "different". This Same infatuation was present in Antz between Z and Princess Bala. Though the incident with John and Lenina was not planned out, like Z had his planned out, Lenina was infatuated with John on site. One of the difference in the too stories is that instead of Z moving to see Princess Bala, Lenina had Bernard take her to The Savage reservation (where she would meet John).

It occurs when John meets Lenina at the Savage c!Īmp. Something extremeley close to that event happens in a Brave New World. His infatuation is so unbareable that he convinces his best friend, Weaver (a soldier ant), to switch places so he can see her again. Soon in to the story Antz, Z runs into the colony's Princess Bala at a bar and becomes infatuated with her. For he has never had an identity of his own because he's lived outside of Utopia in the Savage reservation. Much like Z, John from Brave New World isn't really self-centered, but he does suffer from and identity crisis.

In the movie Antz, Z is a self-centred worker ant who doesn't see why he has to conform to what the rest of the colony does and consequently suffers from an identity crisis. The three characters, from Antz, that best symbolize characters in a Brave New World are Z, who symbolizes John, Princess Bala, who symbolizeds Lenina, and Weever, a soldier who symbolizes the 2nd highest caste in the Utopian society. Many of the characters in the movie Antz are symbolic of characters in the book Brave New World, and their actions resemble the book too.Some of the events that take place in the movie Antz are directly related to the events that occur in the book Brave New World. The movie is completely animated, but it's very clear that the protagonist Z is a character which symbolizes Aldos Huxley's character John in the book, Brave New World. Antz, contrary to the title, is more about humans than the insects we despise at picnics.
