The current operating show is sadly lacking due to the impressive Hopper animatronic missing.
For me, that element missing really brings the experience down several notches.

Some of the in house effects have also been toned down / pulled back.

The audience however still reacts as they always have…especially at the end when the ‘bugs leave the theatre first’.

That’s too bad. How long has he been gone?

I think Hopper was working at some point in the past few months, I could swear I did the attraction and he was working. But is it extremely inconsistent I do assume they aren't bothering to fix it at this point if it's broken.

Even if the Bug's Life is a dated IP, you don't really need knowledge of the IP to enjoy the attraction, and it fits perfectly in the tree trunk. It was quite literally made for it with theming/Imagineering/planning. While I think Zootopia (if done well) will be a fun attraction, I wish it didn't have to come at the expense of the Bugs.

For some time on and off.
The last two showings I saw back in January he was out of action.
And Flik had a non- working mouth.

Reminded me of how far standards have slipped…
I am probably showing my age, but in the days of yore not that long ago if a figure had a non-working mouth the Attraction was closed until addressed.
