In this Disney animated tale, the orphaned Tarzan (Tony Goldwyn) grows up in the remote African wilderness, raised by the gentle gorilla Kala (Glenn Close). When a British expedition enters the jungle, Tarzan encounters the beautiful Jane (Minnie Driver) and recognizes that, like her, he's human. Falling in love with Jane, Tarzan is torn between embracing civilization and staying with his gorilla family, which becomes threatened by the ruthless hunter Clayton (Brian Blessed).

A group of baboons is called a troop.
Wait... YOU ARE 22?!?!? You look like you´re 37 or something, dude :S:S Also: IMMEDIATE thumbs down for talking over the songs :D:D (correction: for talking over THE ENTIRE MOVIE).
@@gabrielp9646 This is a reaction video, not a showing. Were you just born yesterday or something? Hope with this sort of stance, you're saying this to the hundreds of other reaction channels that talk over the scenes. (The expectation is the viewers have already seen the movie. If you haven't then this isn't for you.) 🙄
Guys do realize that KerChak is Kala's second mate? :)
@@jebVlogs556 ??? Where do you get this idea from? Where is it officially stated?
I'm from Germany and I think it's great that Phil Collins sang the songs in different languages for the different countries! Hear him sing in german was strange, but he did it very well!
Of course the Germans were the bad guys! We also watched "Schindlers List" in history class!
Had no idea! That's amazing!
@sevasmos we germans are very aware of what the nazis did. Of course the Germans back than were the bad guys in our view. We are also told that it’s our responsibility to prevent such things ever happen again in germany and anywhere else.
Not like most Americans denying racism, slavery, genocide of the natives,…
And no, hitler is not alive and chancellor
in brazil ed motta sing this songs , is very good too
War das wirklich Phil Collins?
Minnie Driver, who voiced Jane, improvised that whole "they took my boot" monologue all on one take, and the film crew absolutely loved it.
She was in The Phantom of the Opera 2004
Tarzan is extremely intelligent, that he could learn so much so fast from things he has never even seen before. If he'd grown up in human civilization, he would have been a genius. In the book, he taught himself to read with no help just from the children's books that his human parents had in their tree house
Not too mention, but he also learned to speak multiple languages and is HELLA rich (he is the heir to his father's mineral fortune, but chose to keep living in Africa)
Combine his sharp mind and a high class heritage, and Tarzan would probably have been quite the notable businessman in Britain. The Englishman "John Clayton, Lord Greystoke" might have been the kind of man Jane would have been steered toward marrying.
2 funny facts:
1. According to one of Tarzan's books when he was a teen (or a young adult?) he actually fell in love with a female-ape and wanted her to be her mate so he fought another ape that wanted her. Tarzan won but the she-ape rejected him not because of lack of strength or fierceness but because he looked funny, didn't have hair and was little in size in comparison to the ape's size. And he was like "you know what? I love you so much that I want to see you happy, so pick a male that fits your standards. I'm cool with that."
2. In the latin version the actor that gave his voice to Tarzan was Eduardo Palomo (RIP) and when he was invited to the premiere, everyone was shocked because he looked a lot like Tarzan physically. (Damn he was so damn HAWT!!!! And he was also a very nice guy)
Here are a few things you didn't know about Tarzan. His name is actually John Clayton the third he and Clayton are related. And in the books (yes there are books) Tarzans parents weren't killed by a leopard they were killed by the actual apes that raised him. They beat his father to death.
Oh damnn that’s dark
@@TimotheeReacts I know right and kerchak was the one that did it and tried to kill Tarzan but he killed him.
Whaaaat?! Disney making their source material to be more child-friendly? I've never heard of such a thing! XD Seriously though, that is really interesting! I definitely wanna check out those books now.
@@Andrew_Thannen at first as i read i was like "i hope this is sarcasm" then i finished your comment. 🤣🤣 considering half the shit that was OG grimm brothers tales before they where child-fied by disney.. 🤣🤣
Yeah, Clayton was his cousin. Jane was also an American teacher, not British.
The thing with Kerchak (The huge male Silverback Gorilla) is not only does he see Tarzan as “different” because he’s human, but also his resentment comes from the big Alpha complex within Gorilla families. An alpha silverback male will normally be very resentful of their own male children as they see them as a threat to their Alpha status within the larger group. It’s a cruel world for every animal out there.
Great reaction as always though Tim😎🙌🏻
Kerchak’s voice actor would later return in Tangled:The series, as The Baron in seasons 2+3 of course.
I feel like this applies to humans too. Not just animals. Lol. But still, that’s cool to know.
@@Kayoss13212 very true🤣
Also Kerchak being the Alpha it's his job to take care of the troop against treaths he's the must powerful Gorilla in a usual troop where all the others are basically females and babies, that's why only he fights against the leopard.
You ever wonder why the only grown male gorilla you ever see in the whole movie Is just Kerchak? Well that's how an adult troop Is usually conformed. The grown male gorillas are casted out or have to fight him for the Alpha position, or killed as they were babies althought not in every case.
i think that explains Kerchak's reaction after Tarzan kills the leopard, he see's it as a challenge.
I do appreciate that while Jane is a damsel in distress, it's entirely justified as her being out of her element!
And according to Google, it's called a "troop" of baboons.
is it ever not justified?
@@craigime
Well, the damsel in distress part can be unjustified if not handled appropriately. Like a woman trying to escape but effectively can’t is one thing, but a woman who doesn’t try at all is another.
I wouldn’t even call Jane a damsel in distress. I have no idea where that came from anyway except maybe the monkey scene? But she literally helps fight and even runs from Tarzan like any normal person would in that scenario (minus taking his help after refusing it because it was the better option than the monkeys) And in the end, she saves Kala and some other apes, and even tries to fight Clayton. Yes he took her down, but that’s just a sheer size difference. I’d totally be taken down by Clayton if he attacked me, even if I fought back.
Jane isn’t a damsel. She’s very realistic with varying strengths and weaknesses. Not all women who aren’t fighting machines or protagonists have to be labeled as damsels. It just alienates women who don’t fit the “strong and solo” stereotype.
@@couragew6260 boohoo
@@mobchao Exactly
the thing i love is when tarzan was "shot"(grazed his arm) kerchak immediately went to attack the person (clayton) who hurt him
like he saw him as his son finally and when someone hurt him, he went to get them without a second thought
he may not have been his dad really, not accepting him as a kid and stuff, but he definitely ended up seeing tarzan as his son
Another thing I like is that, after Tarzan kills Sabor and Kerchak begins leaving, Tarzan lays the dead leopard at his feet in a subservient way,showing that Kerchak is still the leader.
@@phousefilms another thing I want to add here is after Tarzan encounters Jane and the others, when Kerchak and Tarzan were arguing, Kerchak firmly said to Tarzan "Protect this family, and stay away from them (humans)". He didn't say to Tarzan "You will never understand" or "If you want to be with them, go to them", he said PROTECT THIS FAMILY. Kerchak may have some issues with Tarzan, but he trusts him to the point of protecting the family.
These are all really good and true points
In the book Kerchak was the one who killed Tarzan's dad and Tarzan ended up killing Kerchak because Kerchak killed his brother. Also, Clayton (Who is Tarzan's biological cousin) was such a stand-up guy that Tarzan decided Jane was better off with him instead of himself.
@@bad-people6510 I mean it’s just another case of disney making their source material more child friendly and honestly I like the story they went with in the movie better than the one in the book
It’s crazy how Tarzan basically avenged his parents death without him even noticing though technically leopards live up to 15-17 years so she would already be dead but hey this is Disney so I’m gonna even complain.
I’ve always found that cool & fitting. That Tarzan avenged his biological parents, and his adoptive brother. Although while he doesn’t know presently in Tarzan, he figures it out later on. Enough to have a prejudice towards leopards in The Legend of Tarzan. I actually don’t think Sabor was a regular Leopard. The age issue you mentioned and the fact that she was able to withstand as much as she did in her fight with Kerchak & Tarzan all lead me to believe she had something to do with Queen La. Queen La was around at the time and she in -universe performed all sorts of magical rituals enhancing & altering Leopards in Tarzans jungle. Sabor easily could’ve been a pet or servant of La’s that she released back into the jungle. It makes the most sense.
I forgot how much I loved Tarzan and Jane's first meeting. The gentleness and tension of their physical contact balanced with the humor born of Tarzan's innocence.
Apparently Glenn Close voiced Tarzan’s adoptive mother, Kala…..no wonder she’s awesome.
Also: I love how Clayton refers to Kala as “it” but Jane refers to Kala as “her”
“He’s experienced a couple mating seasons, I’m sure”
I CANT 🤣🤣🤣
You do not want to imagine things, YOU WILL NEVER BE THE SAME
Not really, apes are not attracted to humans
14:08 the reason the other apes aren’t joining is due to that the family group is mostly of mothers with babies and young adults. Kerchik is the only adult male (besides Tarzan) and it’s his job to protect his family.
9:43 IDK if anyone else realize this, but Tarzan learned how to swim precisely at this second. He jumped off a cliff into the water without knowing how to swim. The kid is crazy brave, and that definitely passed into his adulthood, and so did his curiosity and lightning-fast learning.
A small detail I like about the movie is how Tarzan's voice actor speaks with different fluency depending on whether he's with animals or with humans. The implication of course is that he's speaking his first language with the animals but still has a way to go when it comes to the Queen's English.
With an American accent weirdly enough. Even though he learns if from people speaking with British accents. Even though those characters are supposed to be from Baltimore.
Yes! I noticed that too! I also love the detail that sometimes (wether Tarzan is with humans or not, but mostly when he’s with humans), u can notice that he grunts (cause yk, he was raised by gorillas and etcetera), and that’s such a detail that makes me love this movie SOOOO MUCH.
As a matter of fact, Tarzan didn't experience any mating seasons. In a gorilla group the only male allowed to mate is the leader, who is also usually the only adult male in the group. The rest are females and their offspring. This makes every young gorilla in the family Kerchak's kids, and also that the family is going to go extinct with Tarzan being the alpha male.
Im sure there were males gorilas when he got the elephant hair
@@1204khalil but they were still juveniles at that time. I don't think there were any adult males in the group. I'm not sure how fast gorillas reach maturity (but also don't expect disney to be scientifically correct either), but I assume the male gorillas in their friend group would be on the verge of leaving the family group to form their own families.
The boys will move on, the ladies won't have kids or will join other males and form their families... And Tarzan and his mum and other older gorillas can just live the rest of their lives out. His mum didn't have any more kids after Tarzan so that aspect isn't really shown to be an issue for the animals even if in real life instinct would dictate whether they would have more offspring.
Yeah but they shouldn't actually be gorillas. They should be Mangani, which are their own species.
@@1204khalil they were still younglings, and would have to fight Kerchak when they grow up
7:35 What's cool about Kala is that 1) Studies have shown gorillas are capable of raising human children, and 2) There are real incredible animal case studies of mothers adopting/saving orphan animals different from their own kind if they are pregnant, are currently raising babies, and/or after the trauma of losing their own baby to nature or poachers. One amazing case study was a lioness who lost her cubs to either hyenas or poachers, I can't remember which. And, against all odds, in her sadness and wanting to be a mother to someone, she adopted an orphan wilderbeast calf, something that she and other lionesses would normally hunt for. Sadly, though, after about some months, while the lioness's back was turned for a few seconds, a lion from a different pride pounced and killed the calf. It was so sad. Another case study was at a zoo, when a lady had a stroller parked with her baby strapped in. Unfortunately, she didn't know that the brake to keep the stroller in place was failing, and the baby stroller rolled down the hill and fell into a gorilla pen. The mother was so scared for her son, but thank heavens the baby wasn't hurt except for the bruise of the straps keeping the baby safe. Female gorillas heard the baby crying and immediately rushed over, unhooked him from the straps, and cradled them in their arms and comforted him, never putting him down once. The females kept passing the baby around, all taking turns to comfort and hold him while protecting him from a grumpy male gorilla that had recently been saved from poachers or animal cruelty, I can't remember. When the zoo keepers got in to get the baby, the gorillas didn't hesitate to hand the baby over to them, fully trusting them because the zoo keepers had taken very good care of them for a long time and built a strong bond with them. As you might guess, some of those females were pregnant or already had infants of their own. There was also a mother house cat that recently given birth to kittens but also, incredibly, adopted ducklings when her instincts under normal circumstances would have eaten them. The ducklings sucked on her milk, which is crazy, and she raised them and her kittens to adulthood. Sorry if this is a long comment, but I love stories like this about animal mothers defying odds, showing love does conquer. ❤️
Nature can be caring even to different species when we stop and observe.
Edgar Rice Burrows wrote the Tarzan novels, as well as John Carter of Mars and many others. Once he was asked that if his Tarzan series was ever animated, who would he want to do it?
His answer was: Walt Disney!
Yes Phil Collins really went hard on this soundtrack and I'm glad he did, this is one of the all time best Disney soundtracks and he even won an Oscar for it. He will go hard again for the Brother Bear soundtrack, another great Disney one. Tarzan went all out not just with the graphics and animation but with the violence. As a kid watching it, the scene with the bodies of Tarzan's dead parents really scarred me, really wasn't expecting Disney to do that but I applaud them for it.
Also fun fact: Minnie Driver who voiced Jane improvised the scene where Jane described meeting Tarzan for the first time to her father and since the animators based Jane's mannerisms on her, the scene took 7 weeks to animate and 73 feet of film.
Phil Collins did also the soundtrack in the french version in " Tarzan " and " Brother bear "
Oh man something about the momma hearing a babies cry and running towards it without hesitation along with the line "Somewhere, something is calling for you, two worlds one family" and the look on her face always makes me cry so damn much
The movie that marked the end of the 90s Disney Renaissance Era. Tarzan was pretty dark in nature involving deaths, but the story and the voice cast were well done.
It's nice, though, that the 90s Disney Renaissance Era lasted all throughout the 90s, that they had the full decade of success, especially when you consider that the first of the Disney Renaissance films, The Little Mermaid, came out exactly ten years before, in 1989. Pocahontas and Hercules didn't quite see the extent of success as the other films of the decade, but they still did well. I wish Pocahontas had told more of the real story and didn't go for the all-out myth version, it might have done better if written not so cliche and preachy, but the 90s Disney movies era was amazing.
@@kestrelraptorial689 I wholeheartedly agree. They shaped the modern day Disney films long after Walt himself died in 1966. The new generation of that time sure knew what they were doing. Though I will say 2009-2019 became what some called “The Resurgence/Neo-Renaissance Era.” Rekindling that same success as they did in the 90s.
@@twist58 Hey, have you ever seen the 1975 Toei anime of The Little Mermaid"? It's a version that rivals the quality of the 1989 Disney musical even though it's different, a lot closer to the original fairy tale.
@@kestrelraptorial689 No. I only heard that the original Little Mermaid story ended tragically than what Disney told.
This movie will always hold a special place in my heart.
Two Worlds, one family. I love this movie. Phil Collins does an amazing job.
I'm french and I have to agree with you because Phil Collins sings the soundtrack in the french version too but I have to admit " Son of man " is better in the original version
I really love that Tarzan encounters Clayton’s sister in the animated series and both characters come to grips with Clayton’s death at the end of the movie. Great story telling.
The animated series is phenomenal in so many ways, honestly. The animation quality is a little,, questionable sometimes, but everything else is wonderful
What's really fucked up is that in the books Clayton is pretty much THE single most morally upstanding character in the entire franchise. Much more so even than Tarzan. To the point where at the end of the first book Tarzan lets Jane go back with Clayton because he understands that that is better for her.
Terkina is the most over looked female in any Disney ever, and she will forever be my favorite Character , and Jane's daddy duo is the healthiest family dynamic Disney has ever done 😂 💗
A group of baboons are called a troop. This is an incredible movie. I love it when Timothee does a collaboration with someone to do a movie.
The story of Tarzan looks similar to the jungle book. Except for one big difference Tarzan was raised by gorillas, and Mogwai was raised by wolves. And they both lost their parents when they were babies, but it is good that their adopted animal parents took very good care of them. And that's what I love about both stories.
In The Jungle Books by Kipling, Kaa was a friend and protector of Mowgli, not a would-be devourer. I liked the movie, but not the contempt for the author who created the story.
When I heard “2 worlds one family” song I loved it Tarzan has always been one of my favorite Disney movies I hope he can make a come back soon
From what I know, in gorilla culture, the lead male defends the group and if he fails and another male succeeds, he becomes an outcast. It wasn't about pride when kerchak left the group after Tarzan killed the leopard.
Then, when Tarzan presented the kill to him, it's like he was denouncing his leadership, allowing Kerchak to stay leader.
In the books, the great apes who raised Tarzan were distinct from gorillas.
*Kerchak
@@jeffthompson9622 The Mangani apes. And his relationship with Kerchak is... somewhat different.
40:17. I kinda wish that Professor Porter went back to England instead of living in the jungle. Maybe he could’ve expressing how much he’s going to miss Jane. But then decided to write a novel based on his adventure. That decision could’ve made Professor Porter this world’s version of Tarzan real life author Edgar Rice Burroughs.
Oh, yeah! That could have been great! But, he's a great dad, too...she's literally got no one else except Tarzan in Africa
The TV series set after this movie introduced a writer named "Ed" who encountered Tarzan and returned home to write of his adventures...
Clayton's voice is Brian Blessed, OBE, a real-life Shakespearean actor, trained opera singer, adventurer, and mountaineer. He has attempted Everest without oxygen multiple times, though he never reached the summit. While there he made friends with a wolf who decided to accompany him up the mountain. He also spoke to the native guides about the yeti, who he has said he believes might be real. He bases that belief on the idea that mountain gorillas were unknown for so long and there could still be animals we just don't know about. He runs an animal sanctuary with his wife, has trained for hundreds of hours with the Russian cosmonauts (his health prevented him from actually going to space) and is the oldest man to reach the magenetic north pole on foot. He tells a story that he had to punch a polar bear in the nose to dissuade it from attacking him on that expedition. He is one of the most interesting people in the world.
Also, a black belt in judo, of course.
Is there anything this man can't do?
That's one hell of a storied life, I'll say
Kerchak was definitely insecure when he couldn't fight the leopard like Tarzan could. Tarzan's interferance could be see as Tarzan beginning to show that he is becoming a leader and could one day challenge him for leadership. Kerchak is getting old and Tarrzan is showing he has the ability to protect the group while Kerchak could not. Kerchak originally walked away with that thought and Tarzan laying that leopard at his feet was subserviant showing Tarzan was not challenging him (males do fight for dominance after all) but making Kerchak realize that maybe Tarzan may be qualified to be leader one day and starting to really accept him as part of the family to come to that decision before the humans came. My guess is Kerchak knew about humans and knew of guns as he immediately became defensive when he saw the guns especially when Clayton pointed it at another which was part of why he was afraid of them.
In terms of the story, I definitely saw it as a moment where Kerchak is reluctantly starting to give Tarzan a degree of his approval but he's still too proud to properly accept him. Tarzan delivering Sabor's corpse at his feet, was him expressing how much he respects him which in turn makes Kerchak realize he can't keep telling himself that he hasn't earned his place in the family. Especially when he just avenged his son (and Tarzan's parents)
Phil Collins did not have to go as hard as he did for this soundtrack and yet he blessed us anyways. Every song is a banger.
By the way, I hope you get a chance to react to Top Gun: Maverick (and the original, of course) when it drops on streaming soon (it's supposed to have a 120 day theatrical window)! I saw it this past Memorial Day weekend (I'm going to be taking my dad to see it on Father's Day) and it's not only one of the best sequels ever made, but the perfect example on how you make a blockbuster film!
I swear I can’t be the only one who loved the soundtrack son of a man,Be in my heart etc it fucking slaps I literally don’t get some critics saying a Musical form would be better or the fact that they don’t fit
@@justsomeguywholovesberserk6375 bro that's what critics do... they're supposed to hate, phil collins went off on this movie's soundtrack and i live by that opinion
@@vulcan6687 For real, literally every time I see this movie mentioned or a react on it, the first thing that comes up is how in love people are with the soundtrack.
What do you mean "he did not have to?" He was hired to do a job by Disney.
@Nicolas Baron - They LITERALLY talked over EVERY SINGLE SONG in the ENTIRE MOVIE... LITERALLY.
The film was given a special Oscar for it’s depth vine layer animation and Tony Hawk with other skateboarders were used for reference footage for Tarzan tree surfing.
Also Phil Collins won the Oscar for Best Original Song for You’ll be in my Heart and this upset Trey Park and Matt Stone for Blame Canada as they said they would be fine losing to anyone, but not Phil Collins and they made fun of him in the show.
One critic joked that "Phil Collins did not write six songs for Tarzan--He wrote ONE song, SIX times."
Yeah I saw that episode of South Park where they made fun of him
One sweet thing about the scene where Tarzan puts his hand on Jane's is that the animator had recently had a baby girl and held her hand like Tarzan had, so he wrote it into the scene because of how much it connected with him.
You know....Clayton dying by being hung feels a whole lot different once I read the books. Being that it was something of a past time for Tarzan to string up people. I wonder if that was a bit of a nod to the book, or if it was an insane coincidence.
This film really contains enough cruelty, and the cartoon is not afraid to show it in different stages of Tarzan's life (although the main character here does not kill blacks as in the original). But it contrasts nicely with the driving vine flying and the layering of 2D on 3D branches. By the way, I don’t really understand why so many mock and make fun of Phil Collins.
I don't either, man, the music in this film is awesome. If you can track down the Phil Collins concepts/demos for this movie (they were an extra in the original special edition DVD set), they're amazing as well.
This is the first I’m hearing about that, I’ve never heard anyone mock him. The only things I’ve heard people say about him are positive, legend is usually in the same sentence as his name. Whoever makes fun of my man Phil must be terrible people 🤷🏻♂️
Who in the world has the audacity to make fun of a legend like Phil collins
“idr understand why so many mock and make fun of Phil Collins”
pple who mock phil collins:
Based on the other replies I think I should add that I don't know how old y'all are, but I was in high school when Tarzan originally came out and Phil Collins was NOT cool. He was old people music because we were young and very, very stupid. He's had a resurgence that's well-deserved now that his music from things like this are being better appreciated.
There's a fan theory that Jane is the granddaughter of Belle from Beauty and the Beast: they both like the color yellow, have a thing for art (Belle - for literature, and Jane - for drawing) and are kind to the outcasts. Also, Jane might have inherited that very tea set from Belle - or made a copy to honor her
cool theory but Jane is English not French like Belle
@@theawesomeman9821 Yeah, but Belle may have had a daughter who married an Englishman. (shrugs)
@@CarolinePhoenixMe I mean... yeah? That's fun and all, but a bit reaching for similarities. Or they're just two movies of separate characters because Disney dropped Easter eggs in all their 90s Renaissance movies. lol
I think a little figure of Mulan's dog (I forget his name but I'm sure you know what I'm talking about) falls out of Jane's father's pockets when he's held upside down, too, if I remember correctly. There's also a Beast figure in the Sultan's miniature toy tower in Aladdin, a person is shaking out Carpet from Aladdin and Belle is seen walking in the crowd during Hunchback, and even in their modern films there's a Mickey doll and Eugene/Rapunzel cameo in Frozen. 🤷♀️
Belle would have had to have a replica tea set made, though, because Mrs. Potts and Chip actually turned back into their human selves at the end of the movie so that tea set ceased to exist.
@@CarolinePhoenixMe plausible but where's the proof?
This movie is still a golden masterpiece till this day
And Dinosaur came out right after this movie did.
Fun fact there's an alternate opening for this that actually shows Sabor killing Tarzan's father, with his mother implied to have already died.
Saw a video of the storyboard; it is as graphic as a g rated movie could possibly get away with. Not a drop of blood and it's in pitch darkness but it is effectively leaving eff all to the imagination.
Clayton has arguably the darkest Disney animated movie death of all time.
I love this movie.
36:22 definitely my alarm clock ⏰ from Tarzan yelling. Anyway, the fun fact is not only Brian Blessed voice Clayton, but he did Tarzan yelling, while Tony Goldwyn voice Tarzan.
The reason why none of them were helping Kerchak was because it is his job as the alpha male to fight off threats and protect the rest of the group. When an alpha male in the animal kingdom can't do that, he is normally kicked out if he survives.
Phil Collins really popped off throughout the whole movie and was aiming straight for the heart strings.
I would say the only CGI that really portrayed the love and loss expression beautifully was the animation of the parents in Tangled
This... This movie... THAT was my entire childhood. I remember when my dad shown me this movie when i was 6. I fell in love with it. I could watch it 3 times a day every day and didnt get bored of it. What a movie, still love it to pieces!
Tarzan was that character who lose his biological parents early, but the female gorilla at the beginning lose her own child as well.
It was a very beautiful message to cares about another's wellbeing and safety.
Bro This Movie didn’t hold back on the violence seriously in the first few Scenes we get shown the Death of the Baby Gorilla and Tarzan’s Parent(Which they later show their dead and lifeless bodies) and the end we literally see the Shadow of Clayton’s hanged Corpse seriously How is this G RATED yet Frozen is PG
They did not hold back
Tarzan and Frozen are from two different eras that’s why
I wonder who would win between Kala and Sabor if Tarzan wasn't involved.
"Who needs civilization? I got a tree house, in the jungle."
-Clariss, 2022
All that’s missing is a hammock
38:03 The shadow of the hanging. Interesting for a G rated Disney film. The MPAA must have not noticed and thought the film was so awesome that everyone had to experience it.
Just so you know, Sabor is actually female, and she's supposed to be a leopard (even though her spots look more like those of a jaguar). Tigers have stripes instead of spots, and as far as I know, they don't live in Africa.
Also, gorillas are apes. Not monkeys.
I’m pretty sure in the original novel, Sabor was a Lion.
@@morganspider-manmarvelfan6110 Yes, I think so too. But I think they made her a leopard because lions don't live in the jungle.
@@Shritistrang Yeah.
@@morganspider-manmarvelfan6110 And Sabor means "lioness" in the Mangani language, where as leopard translates to "Sheeta".
@@danofsteel785 Wow. Thanks
This movie is incredibly dark for Disney but such a masterpiece. I still tear up every-time I see Tarzan’s dead parents. Both Clayton and the Leopard were great antagonists.
Actually Sabor is a Leopard not a Jaguar.
“this movie is incredibly dark for disney”
hunchback of notre dame: thats cute
@@whenraindropsfall lol
@@whenraindropsfall The Black Cauldron: how adorable, allow me to introduce myself.
@@kgunitkeese17 that wasn’t dark at all T-T
I love Tarzan! Definitely one of the greatest Disney animated films I’ve seen since The Lion King imo! Thanks for the reaction too, bro!
(At 37:35) You know what I found out disturbing about Tarzan and Clayton? They are closely related, not the fact they're humans, but they share the same family name and by blood. "Clayton" being their last names… of royal descent. Tarzan happened to be next in line after his father. So basically, Tarzan and Clayton are officially related… as cousins.
OH GOD
Fun fact: For hundreds of years Euopeans had thought gorillas was just a myth. It wasn't until like the late 1800s or so (I think) that explorers had discovered them in Africa. Sadly, they did exactly what you think they did... brought some back for entertainment, skinned others. This story is based around that late era if memory serves!
The novel is set in the late 19th to early 20th century.
I read the first book years ago. It's very different. I think I remember Tarzan somehow teaching himself English through old books he found, and writing love letters to Jane for ages before she meets him, and her being confused about how eloquent his letters are vs how wild he is.
There used to be a Tarzan attraction at Disney’s Animal Kingdom. It was called Tarzan Rocks, and they had a band performing the songs from the movie, as well as having the characters show up. Unfortunately, the attraction is NOT there anymore. It was replaced by Finding Nemo:The Musical/Finding Nemo:The Big blue and Beyond.
Ok so something that REALLY hurts me as an artist is how the development team for this film were treated by one particular Disney CEO Manager whatever his name is. Tarzan used 3D Canvasing, first 2D film to use it. Mainly on the vine surfing scenes and the more action oriented scenes like the tree house. So 3D Canvasing is where you build a 3D environtment, and then draw 2D characters interacting with it and you put a Camera on a crane so this way it saved animators SO MUCH TIME. WAY Ahead of it's time for this film and was also used in the film Treasure Planet and Journey to Atlantis. Problem was 3D canvassing wasn't accessible and was VERY VERY expensive back then since 3D technology was only just starting to enter the public main stream of technology. And sadly one Disney Manager saw this as too costly. So what did he do? The director who'd dreamed of making Treasure planet finally had his dream project realized but the Disney Manager did something truly dispicable. He placed the film's opening IN THE SAME TIME as Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone. ANY film studio knew back then the reception Harry Potter was getting was going to take away form any other film opening. And since CEOs only look at the immediate results in modern buinsess era, the film underperformed and the 3D/2D department that helped make the film was shut down. As an artist it truly hurts my soul to see such passion and hard work get canclled because someone didn't have the foresight to see a possible business trend and being the forefront of a possible new wave of animation.
well Pixar killed 2D at Disney
@@theawesomeman9821 While true there was still something special about hand drawn animation, and in combination with this kind of technology could have created so many possibilities.
God that hurts
@@theawesomeman9821 at least Pixar still puts effort into original movies these days, unlike Disney.
@@alyssabullock6421 Pixar is part of Disney
-Little Mermaid
-Rescuers 1 & 2
-The Lion King
-Pocahontas
The entire renaissance is calling
This was actually the FIRST Disney movie I saw when I went to the movie theatre’s when I was a kid. Loved every minute of it, even all the songs by Phil Collins, great reaction guys. And Clariss looks Stunning
I remember when the movie came out, when Clayton the Hunter first bursts on screen with his thin mustache, slicked hair and hunched over his rifle, animation fans joked that they expected him to say, “Heheheh…Kind of outsmarted you, eh, little chum?” 😂
This movie is just so heartwarming and it is definitely at Lion King level. The movie has few flaws and the songs are just perfect. The "my son" gets me every time
Tarzan 1999 will always be my fave disney movie and one of my fave movies of all time. A total classic
Tarzan is such an amazing film , i own on VHS , Phil Collins doing the sound track was a icing on cake it completed it , also the fact that he sung the intro song in different languages is amazing , i love his music
I think Tarzan is a Disney movie that deserves a remake! With all of the songs in it, of course!
The music composers for this did a hell of a job with this
When I was a kid Tarzan and Hercules was my absolute favorite Disney movies and they still are very high up and they mean a lot to me
Best Disney movie of all time imo. Phill Collins goes hellllllla hard in this soundtrack and the visuals are amazing. That opening scene is sooooooo good.
I know I’m incredibly late to the game, but this is my introduction to both of you and you’ve both earned a new subscriber! I really enjoyed this reaction, you’re both so funny. I always love seeing people discover Disney magic for the first time.
A childhood classic of mine worth watching is The Great Mouse Detective- very underrated. Sending love from England Xxx
The early 2000 disney movies (starting with Tarzan) really are great movies. They aren't romantized in people's minds as much as the Disney renessaince and not mentioned as often, but Tarzan, Atlantis, Emperor's New Groove, and Treasure Planet are good in their ow right as they tried to do something new away from the Disney princess formula. I am still bitter about Kida not being considered a Disney Princess. (and Esmerelda for that matter. Mulan gets to be a princess, they should too).
such great movies ineed. all of them top-notch with Treasure Planet being my crown jewel, my personal fav of all time :V
(Esmeralda never bothtered me tho...I think cuz she's a gypsy. Her whole concept does not fit with the "princess" concept. Gypsies are free spirited and do their own thing......she would be a kick ass princess nonetheless :3 )
Fun fact: Esmeralda used to be an official Disney princess, but was removed(possibly because of merchandising reasons).
Cree Summer, Kidas voice actress, considers her an official princess and would advocate pretty strongly for her inclusion if she could
Looking back, it's amazing how accurate the animal behavior is in this film. In real life, Gorillas really do live in groups lead by an alpha male who fathers most of the offspring and decides who is welcome or not. Elephants also live in herds, but the males usually wander off as bachelors which explains why Tantor hangs out with his friends alot. And yes, baboons are REALLY protective and wary of strangers when it comes to their offspring.
"Why don't they all attack at once?"
"...it is not within the reasoning powers of the anthropoid to be able to weigh or appreciate the value of concentrated action against an enemy. Otherwise they would have long since become the dominant creatures of their haunts." -Edgar Rice Burroughs; _The Beasts of Tarzan;_ 1914
Clayton's voiced by the legendary Brian Blessed who you may also remember from Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace. Next to voicing Clayton, he also did the Tarzan yell in this movie
I love that the both of you are wearing yellow like Jane and her dad! 💛
I’m 27 and have watched Tarzan so many times since it came out and there’s so many things I missed but they pointed out.
Like the Jaguar in the trees before Tarzan and him battle
And the shadow behind claytons dead body
AND how she pointed out how Tarzan never notice the tree house before. I never thought about that
Tim’s face at 25:50 is just priceless!😂🤣😂🤣
I didn’t understand the joke, can someone explain me?
@@danielapreciado4125 mating season "sex" and the joke was that Tarzan might of had xxx with gorilla hence tim face expression full of shock/trauma lmao
6:08, trust they are, in my country we have jaguars, these things are so darn smart and strategic, unlike a tiger or a lion, they bite straight to the skull and kill their prey instantly, and unlike the other cats, they are well rounded, they regular hunt in the water like a shark, up in the trees like a monkey, and fast on the land like a cheetah, they legit spent they Evolution token on making sure they have every ability
My favorite Disney movie right behind Aladdin, I adore this movie
Man I remember the show that came out of this
It takes a lot of the original books by Edward Burroughs like the leopard men of Opar, Pellucidar the hidden world of dinosaurs and a giant crazed gorilla rival to Kerchak named Tublat (in the original work their names are switched)
It also goes into other conflicts like more humans reaching the jungle not for evil but simply because society keeps growing
Fun animal facts: when Kerchek beats his chest they did the proper movement of a gorilla using open palms instead of the typical closed fists. Tantor freaking out over the skull is accurate cuz elephants are some of the few animals that can recognize bones so seeing human skull when he's around gorillas...
Also it's set during the Victorian era & from the books Tarzan is actually named John Clayton the Earl of Greystokes & he is the most anatomically accurate human Disney has ever made
This cartoon has collected all the best from Disney in the 90s. The perfect end to the Disney renaissance.
Tim reaction to the shadow was awesome. 🤩
Brooo i did NOT expect thatt
I really like Jane’s voice, she doesn’t have that high annoying lady in trouble type of voice. She sounds more natural and realistic.
I don't know if anyone else has included all of this information, since I'm not able to read over 400 comments, but in the original series of books. Tarzan's parents knew that is mother was pregnant with him, so they brought a whole bunch of children's books with them. Tarzan found the books when he was young and managed to teach himself how to read English with them. As a young man, he meant a Frenchman in the jungle and the Frenchman ended up teaching him how to speak the words he already knew how to write. There are 24 Tarzan books by Edgar Rice Burroughs. The first one was published in 1912. Also, Tarzan was supposedly born in the late 1800s with the majority of the story set around the time that the book was published , so about 1912. About 100 years before the Regency period.
Also can we appreciate Tarzan didn’t want Clayton to die. He tried to warn him about the vines
You two have such a great dynamic I hope you two do more collaborations in the future!
There was a Tarzan toy that was released around the time the movie came out and I think it came with the Jaguar . When you poured warm water on the toy the claw marks would appear on his chest .
I think terk, tarzan's friend is the real mvp. She loved tracen from the first moment, her departure broke her heart and she stood by her side in all the dark moments. She is also very funny
fun fact about the scene around 27:35, disney had to check in with the owners of the rights of the original tarzan story while making this movie. and apparently they decided that it was okay for tarzan to HOLD a glass of wine, as long as he didn’t DRINK any of it. that was their compromise. i don’t know if it was a concern if it being out of character, or a concern of it encouraging kids to drink, or what but i just think that’s interesting. also personally i like that detail because he probably barely knows - or doesn’t at all - what it even is. and he’s already been shown to be cautious.
You know, some people claim that Sabor the leopard (who in the original books was actually a lioness) was just simply being a natural predator trying to stay alive. Well, that may have been the case when she killed Kala and Kerchak's real son. However, she clearly did not kill Tarzan's parents for food. Yes, she was trying to get him, but she clearly did not eat his parents' corpses. She killed them solely because they were in her way, and for simply the pure pleasure of killing them. So, since she killed two adult humans JUST for sport, she broke a law of nature.
Also, the local jungle animals of this West African jungle must be more familiar with the native African humans rather than paler ones like Tarzan. In fact, in the spinoff TV show The Legend of Tarzan (and in the original books), Tarzan gets introduced to a native African human tribe called the Waziri, and it fascinates him that they are humans who have apparently lived in this jungle longer than he has.
This is my all time favorite Disney movie and I promised myself, once I have a kid, I'm going to show this to him/her.
Tarzan is easily one of the best animated Disney movies ever made.
Definitely one of my favorite Disney movies of all times.
I hope Clariss gets the part of Jane in a live movie version.
Forget mufasa, kerchaks death always leaves me a wreck
There's a Disney movie than came out around this time, I believe the year after, called dinosaur. I think you both would enjoy it. It's an extremely underated movie.
Fuck that film
5:21 It's like Baby's Day Out lol - the baby's just hving the time of his life w/ no idea how much danger he's in
I know I’m late to the party y’all, I’m sorry.Tarzan is such a classic, probably one of my favorites on the list of Disney movies. So glad y’all did this one. I remember back at Disney World when I was little they actually had a Tarzan show where people were rollerblading and swinging off of vines. It was legit for a Disney show, but unfortunately for Disney they have to keep replacing attractions and shows to keep it more up to date
I actually ran into the voice of Kerjack *Lance Henriskson* a few years ago when he was on the CW show *DC's Legend's of Tomorrow where he played the characters Obsidian son of Green Lantern Alan Scott* He was such a gentleman.
I always considered Kala as the best mom Disney ever made because she knew it'll happens one day and gave him the choice.
Fun facts :
1) Phil Collins did also the soundtrack in the french version for " Tarzan " and later for " Brother Bear ". His voice sounds so good in french.
2) in french, young Tantor is voiced by the same voice actress than Lilo in " Lilo and Stitch " and Chaca (Pacha's daughter) in " The emperor's new groove "
3) in the french version, Jane described Tarzan as " a flying wild man nearly naked " 🤭
I have also an interesting thing for you. In France, there was a boy nicknamed " Victor de l'Aveyron " who was considered as a french Mowgli because he was a wild child.
You should watch " The wild child " it's a movie who relate his life during his return to civilisation.
