In the James Cameron blockbuster 'Avatar,' 3-D cinematography is the real star. The bugs and crawling creatures seem to slither into the theater seats. The floating mountains of the planet Pandora hover gloriously overhead. And the Na'Vi, Pandora's 10-foot-tall, blue-skinned natives, come convincingly to life.

I want to do stories that are about the bits of cultural furniture that are sitting there that we're like, 'Oh yeah, that's been there for years! What could possibly be weird about it?' And then we're going to lift that piece of furniture and look at all the bugs scurry away.
Adam Conover
Going on safari in South Africa was hardcore but a lot of fun - though my friend Maura was absolutely freaking out about all the bugs in her hair and having to pee in the sand.
Alek Wek
I watched the classics as a kid, and I could tell that Bugs Bunny in drag was a cartoon and a joke. It didn't make me start dressing in drag.
Alex Hirsch
I love bugs. And as the first person to popularize their eating in America, I take special pride in seeing their appreciation soar.
Andrew Zimmern
You know my girls are so funny. You're out in the country and there are critters everywhere and they get a little like, 'Oh my God! Oh no, bugs!' and I had to say, 'Honey this is fine. This is their world and it's all part of being in the country.' I realized, 'Oh my God, my girls are really city girls.'
Anna Gunn
I always have multiple ladybugs around because they're lucky, and they're good for flowers and the environment.
Annaleigh Ashford
Since I was a little girl, I've collected ladybugs. Not real ones - I never had a weird ladybug farm!
I'm not looking to freak people out - eating rodents or bugs. I don't do that anymore.
Anthony Bourdain
When I first got the call for 'I'm A Celebrity,' I was like, 'Dude, it's snakes and bugs and things. Nah.'
Ashley Roberts
Music for me, it's pretty annoying, because I've never had a successful solo career and it bugs me.
Ashley Walters
I love all kinds of insects, and I've heard Australia has some really interesting bugs.
Aurora
In effect, you cannot stop Iraq from growing nasty bugs in the basement. You can stop them from putting operational warheads on working missiles and launching them at their neighbors.
Barton Gellman
Words are the children of reason and, therefore, can't explain it. They really can't translate feeling because they're not part of it. That's why it bugs me when people try to analyze jazz as an intellectual theorem. It's not. It's feeling.
Bill Evans
When birds burp, it must taste like bugs.
Bill Watterson
I love the outdoors and looking at snakes, squirrels, bugs - just going through the woods and being part of it. You can smell the different trees. And I listen. There's so much you can learn by listening, by sitting and watching things happen.
Boo Weekley
'A Bug's Life' is a really funny movie and the characters have such different personalities. The movie is happy and then gets really sad and I'm like, W'hoa, I'm feeling this way and this movie is about bugs!'
Booboo Stewart
I'm just glad that I have bragging rights to working with Bugs and Daffy.
Brendan Fraser
I'm fairly adventurous with my eating. I've tried kangaroo, and Moreton Bay bugs, which are a kind of lobster, are so good.
Brian O'Driscoll
Hey, we all have our fear. Mine is bugs and lobsters!
Brooke Burke
People have no tolerance. They think all bugs are bad. It's the American way. If you don't like something, kill it.
I'd love to be animated. I've always wanted to jump off of a bridge and not be hurt, like Bugs Bunny.
Bugsy Siegel. The mobster with the beautiful blue eyes.
I certainly wasn't the kind of kid that grew up collecting bugs and spiders.
Growing up, I really liked 'Star Wars.' Han Solo would've been really cool to meet. But my stuff was real low-brow. I was watching 'Bugs Bunny.'
I had bedbugs in 2005. I felt like a leper. Worse than a leper. At least lepers had a colony they could go and live in with other people who empathized. I instead had friends stand up from tables and walk out of restaurants when I told them I had bedbugs, because they were afraid I'd transfer the bugs to them.
Bedbugs have never been cool, and bedbugs will never be cool.
My wife has joked that if anything ever happened to me, she'd gladly live out her life without anyone else around. I think it bugs her I'm home all the time; such is the life cycle of the cartoonist, however.
The thing I loved about the cartoons I grew up with is, to this day, I'm still just starting to get certain references from Bugs Bunny cartoons. I'll see some film noir movie and go, 'Wait, that's what Bugs Bunny was quoting!' I like the idea we made the unfolding fortune cookie for ten years from now.
I have to think as Bugs Bunny, not of Bugs Bunny.
The Coyote is limited, as Bugs is limited, by his anatomy.
I have come to know Bugs so well that I no longer have to think about what he is doing in any situation.
Richard doesn't really like me to kill bugs, but sometimes I can't help it.
It really bugs me that someone will tell me, after I spent 20 years being educated, how I'm supposed to think.
The main thing is to think strategically about what will engage your readers. Trust me when I tell you that few people are eager to read a story whose opening lines sound like a dissertation on giant bugs.
The important thing to remember is that bugs don't actually talk.
I'm a bit of a caveman - I don't go out into the digital space very often. I lie facedown on the grass and count how many bugs I can find.
Now, I admire The Sims as a game, but from a story viewpoint, there are two glaring problems. First, your relationship with those characters is like they're bugs in a jar. There's no empathy. And secondly, you've got this clunky, chemistry-set interface between you and them, with bars to show how tired or angry they are. It's all tell not show.
I don't camp; I don't hike. I hate bugs, and I'm phobic of snakes.
Real security will come when it's a moneymaker for private companies who want to satisfy public demand for an Internet that isn't crawling with bugs.
An artist makes a painting, and nobody bugs him or her about it. It's just you and your painting. To me, that's the way it should be with film as well.
I like to look at things that have been developed and re-developed over the course of time so I know the bugs are worked out of it. And in the business itself, I like to look at sales, by far. I want to see that there is a vetted track record of sales to show the price point has worked.
I was lucky enough to get to see guys like Bugs Henderson, Jimmy Wallace, all those great Texas blues players.
Beware of bugs in the above code; I have only proved it correct, not tried it.
I don't have a Bluetooth thing on my ear. That bugs me.
Program testing can be used to show the presence of bugs, but never to show their absence!
My house is very serious. It's a lot of antiques, and the way I decided to liven it up is, I paired it very vibrant colors and - bugs... I think that they're pretty. And I think that they're fascinating and they're natural.
When Bugs Bunny walks into rehab, people are going to turn and look. People at rehab were stealing my hats and pens and notebooks and asking for autographs. I couldn't concentrate on my problem.
When you use Google, do you get more than one answer? Of course you do. Well, that's a bug. We have more bugs per second in the world. We should be able to give you the right answer just once. We should know what you meant.
I've always been able to overcome things, and to this day, it still bugs me that I couldn't overcome a ball to the face. But I think things worked out for the best.
