This was the last cartoon feature that the Fleischer brothers, Max and Dave, released before going their separate ways. The story concerns an insect community threatened by problems within their society, in addition to pressures from the human race. Unfortunately, this expensive production
was a financial failure, causing the animators, who had been Disney's chief rivals, to close up shop. While MR. BUG GOES TO TOWN falls short of such earlier Fleischer features as GULLIVER'S TRAVELS, it features animation that was well ahead of its time.
