Phyllis Ada Diller (née Driver; July 17, 1917 – August 20, 2012) was an American stand-up comedian, actress, author, musician, and visual artist, best known for her eccentric stage persona, self-deprecating humor, wild hair and clothes, and exaggerated, cackling laugh. Diller was one of the first female comics to become a household name in the U.S., credited as an influence by Joan Rivers, Roseanne Barr, and Ellen DeGeneres, among others. She had a large gay following and is considered a gay icon. She was also one of the first celebrities to openly champion plastic surgery, for which she was recognized by the cosmetic surgery industry. Diller contributed to more than 40 films, beginning with 1961's Splendor in the Grass. She appeared in many television series, featuring in numerous cameos as well as her own short-lived sitcom and variety show. Some of her credits include Night Gallery, The Muppet Show, The Love Boat, Cybill, and Boston Legal, plus 11 seasons of The Bold and the Beautiful. Her voice-acting roles included the monster's wife in Mad Monster Party, the Queen in A Bug's Life, Granny Neutron in The Adventures of Jimmy Neutron: Boy Genius, and Thelma Griffin in Family Guy.

Rest in Peace
for Rest in Peace in A BUG'S LIFE 2
Suggested by enzotakerian

Remember the outtakes from "Toy Story 2" where they show Flik and Heimlich being on set thinking that it's "A Bug's Life 2" until Heimlich confesses that it's not? Well, if they actually DID make a sequel, here's my idea for the story. After finally defeating the grasshoppers, the ants on Ant Island are forever in peace and harmony. Atta is coronated as Queen of the colony and Flik is now her husband, providing more gadgets to increase production for gathering food for Winter. Also, Princess Dot is now a teenager, and she wants to find her own prince to love. Meanwhile, PT Flea's circus troupe (with Hopper's brother Molt as a member) is allowed to have their own ideas for performances displayed in the show. Their happiness ends too soon, when a swarm of wasps attacks the colony. Their leader actually happens NOT be a wasp, it's a grasshopper named "Grass" and she is the late Hopper's SISTER! She is vowing vengeance. The circus bugs return to help, but they'll need a bigger army, so they set out to ask a swarm of bees. But the bees are not so agreeable.
