Flik was never meant to be a worker ant; he's a drone who was accidentally placed into the worker caste without anyone noticing the oversight. That's why he doesn't work well with others and wastes his time building inventions instead of carrying food to the nest. He's also the only ant who shows interest in Atta: drones only exist to mate with the ant queens and Atta is a princess.

It would rather perfectly explain how he seems to be completely animalistic and feral compared to the human-like grasshoppers. Locusts rather infamously mindlessly swarm to sources of food and never stop eating until they run out. Among sapient grasshoppers, a locust would indeed be akin to an incoherent psychopath that attacks anything he's pointed toward with the mentality of an attack dog.

It will be called "A Bug's World" and takes place 30 years after the events of the original film. It stars [[SpinOffspring the descendant of Flik]], who shares Flik's inventive mind which proves useful in a world of changing technology. The miniature realm of the bugs will also be explored further and introduce a variety of new bug characters.

* If we consider that the grasshopper is the one from the ''WesternAnimation/SillySymphonies'' version, we can assume each new grasshopper generation became more and more dependent on the ants, ending up becoming freeloading {{Jerkass}}es who are content to eat the ants out of house and home and, in the case of Hopper, swear a petty revenge on one of them.
