The Hero Characters in A Bug’s Life and Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs Movies
ABSTRACT
The hero characters, like most people know, are like Superman, Spider-
Man, Wonder Women, and etc, who gain superpower, stronger than ordinary
people, and fight monsters to save the world. However, there are also the hero
characters that do not gain superpower. This study concerned on finding out the
differences between Flik of A Bug’s Life and Flint of Cloudy with a Chance of
Meatballs movies as the ordinary hero characters by using Campbell’s hero’s
journey theory. This study was a qualitative research with content analysis as its
approach. As the data, this study used words including narrations and dialogues
that were taken from A Bug’s Life and Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs movie
scripts.
This study showed that Flik was a dependent hero character, while Flint was
an independent one. In Flik’s case, he was considered as the dependent hero
character due to his natural trait as the ant colony to put the colony above
everything. While, Flint was considered as the independent hero character based
on his reasons of doing the adventure: to fulfill his own desire of being
acknowledged by his dad and to show his attractive side to the girl that he fell in
love with, Sam Sparks. To conclude, regardless the fact that both Flik and Flint
were included as the ordinary hero characters, this study had shown they still had
their own version of hero characters. As the implication, this study was able to
show that becoming a hero required the will and effort to be one as long as the
intention was to save lives.
Key words: hero character, hero’s journey, colony
