This is a bumper complication of generic theatre bumpers (i.e. drive-in, independent, grindhouse) without the main major theatre name (AMC, Regal, Cinemark, etc.) which are located around the world.

While this happens, the shot fades to a popcorn machine which disposes popcorn. While this scene happens, it fades to a family drinking and eating on a purple-yellow gradient background with the table. This continues for a while which then fades to the girl in it. When it is completely zoomed out, the text "Let's All Go To the Lobby to get Ourselves a treat!" fades in. After a while, the logo fades out.
Trivia: The short was directed by Dave Fleischer, one of the owners of the famed Fleischer Studios animation company (along with his brother Max Fleischer) that was active from 1929 to 1942.
Technique: Cel animation done by Filmack Studios.

Visuals: The logo of the theater fades in over a dark, shadowy background. The logo is under a spotlight and dust particles are shining. The words "Please silence your cell phones now." appear between the logo. "YOUR FEATURE PRESENTATION WILL BEGIN MOMENTARILY" wipes in under it. About 20 seconds in, two film projector graphics appear at the top-left and right areas in frame. They then spin and a light comes out of it.
