That movie makes me angry, he has no standing in the case. His hive was never harvested. I assume the hives that were harvested appeared to be man made. They never explain those bees perspective. As far as we know they had a deal and now Jerry Seinfeld has now gotten them evicted.
Yeah he has no standing but like, he’s also just fucking wrong. The third act of the movie details that the world undergoes an ecological disaster thanks to Barry getting the bees to stop working. As an ending, it has its own problems, but for as much as you can say about the Bee Movie, Barry isn’t a hero or even really heroic until the very end. He’s just an asshole who’s out for himself. Absolutely he fucked over those corporate bees, and he doesn’t care, he just didn’t want to work.
Barry has standing in that destruction of natural habitats in the area surrounding his hive has impacted his colony’s ability to thrive. His colony is a victim of colonialism. If he can prove that his colony is descended from an earlier colony which cultivated plant life in the New York area that was deforested by humans, then he may be able to argue that his colony is owed a certain amount of land. Charging rent from the human businesses on that land so he can buy honey, Barry would be able to supply his colony with enough honey to get us to the end of the movie’s plot.
It’s a little more complicated than what we actually saw, but the logic is sound.

He’s a very very bad man.
