ANTZ Clip - "Flood" (1998)

"Don't worry, I know almost exactly what I'm doing." That phrase helped me a lot throughout my life

[@kingkongchief1177]

Colonel Cutter is one of my favorite characters in all of animation and movies. He shows that people make mistakes and realize they’re on the wrong side of history and redeem themselves by joining the right side. A person that questions the authority of immoral orders and turns against it.

[@UCannotDefeatMyShmeat]

The right side of history, the thing literally every side calls itself

[@leerogish7223]

Cutter reminds me of Phoebus in hunchback of Norte dame. They finally has enough of their boss’s evil ways and defies order in favor of their conscious.
