Sorry to say, but it's in "A Bug's Life". It's called "Geri's Game" and can be found on chess.com fun videos section and youtube.
There used to be a short about two old chess players at the beginning of Antz. Gone?

Thank you. I'll see if I can find it on chess.com or you tube. Not quite sure now to find it on You tube.
I just had the wrong insect!

I remember some time ago watching Antz (DVD) at someone's house and at the beginning of it was an animated short film about two old guys playing chess. I remember it being wonderful.
So I just rented Antz from Netflix. But no two old guys playing chess. That's why I rented the film. Gone. All Antz. So it is going back tomorrow.
What happened? and where can I find this little short animated film?
