Creative Engagement: Insectopia Is the New Utopia

In an effort to connect to what Professor Calhoun started on the bloffice, I started thinking about Utopia's that we see in popular culture today. The first one that came to mind was insectopia from the movie Antz. As a child, I had to ask my mom during the movie what a utopia was because this was the first time that I had ever heard of the word and of its concept. With that in mind, here is the clip from the movie in which the most pleasurable land is described for insects.



Now for my classmates, what examples first popped into your head at the mention of a utopia? Because not all of us can be eight years and recite cartoon movies by heart.
