Tarzan | Films ((exclusive))
The Weissmuller MGM films (and later, RKO films) prioritized action and comedy over Burroughs’ more complex plots. Titles like Tarzan and His Mate (1934), Tarzan Finds a Son! (1939), and Tarzan’s New York Adventure (1942) turned the franchise into a reliable, family-friendly adventure series. Weissmuller made 12 Tarzan films, setting the template for decades.
The original Tarzan film, released in 1999, is a beautifully animated and engaging film that brings the classic tale to life. The story follows Tarzan, a human boy raised by gorillas in the African jungle, as he navigates his dual identity and confronts the villainous Clayton. The film features stunning animation, memorable characters, and a catchy soundtrack, including the iconic "You'll Be in My Heart." tarzan films
