When Hoppity the grasshopper returns to Bugville, he finds all is not well when humans threaten the survival of his town. After moving his friends to a beautiful city garden, owned by the kind-hearted human songwriters Dick and Mary, tragedy strikes and they must return to the lowlands.

Max Fleischer’s brilliantly animated movie takes you on a journey inside the amazing world of Bugville and is a heartwarming story presented in classic vintage animation that will delight kids and fans of all ages!

Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - 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).
To add insult to injury, it is presented with a poor two channel audio track. This is a masterpiece of humor and a charming story reminiscent ... Read More



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Not necessarily what it seems - a rebuttal to 'Pigface'
I have not purchased this disc, but I have read reviews and comments from other animation sites, and as a result, I will say this - a company that has to disguise a film that is not PD, and not authorized by the copyright holder, with not only a new name, but also replaces the opening titles with a simulated 'aged' title is treading on very shaky ground legally. Treat it for what it most likely is - a well-disguised bootleg, like so many others, regardless of how may look. An "authorized release" would ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - 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.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Animated Classic indeed!
I've watched Bugville many times and enjoyed it every time.
(I enjoyed the three bonus Fleischer cartoons that are included on this DVD as well, and felt they definitely gave an extra bang for my buck.)
The new cover brings vibrant new life to this classic animated film.

If you like classic animation, I highly recommend Bugville!
