- Hoppity Goes Down
This is a special gem presented by the Fleischer brothers, the only real contender to the Disney Studios juggernaut of animation in the thirties and fourties. Unfortunately, this is a very poor dub, probably a bootleg, with all the original brilliant colors washed out along with a scratchy film transfer from an old release print (not the original negative).

- BUGVILLE - WONDERFUL
I almost missed this title because I knew it as "Hoppity Goes to Town." This is a wonderful film. It is a classic, it's a shame more people don't know about how wonderful Max Fleischer's work was. Highly recommended for the whole family.

- Animated Classic indeed!
I've watched Bugville many times and enjoyed it every time.

The new cover brings vibrant new life to this classic animated film.

If you like classic animation, I highly recommend Bugville!
