"Mr. Bug goes to Town" (1941) on Turner Classic Movies on June 14

Great news fellow animation lovers,

Sunday June 14, 2015, a great underrated animated classic will be on Turner Classic Movies. This classic is "Mr. Bug Goes to Town", the Fleischer Brothers second and final animated feature film. Even though this movie is often times associated with the end of the studio (Though this has been argued as being for many reasons (most commonly lack of promotion and being released on the day pearl harbor was bombed).), it is actually a very well made film and a great last hurrah for the Fleischer Studio (Popeye, Betty Boop, Out of the Inkwell, etc.).

So tune into TCM on June 14th at 5:00pm Pacific Time or 8:00pm eastern for a great animated classic that has been unjustly forgotten.
