Jen thinks she is familiar with Tarzan... I guarantee that is not the case. She probably thinks the Tarzan books were for kids... really, Jen should have read the first two Tarzan novels (all one story) before watching this to know what Disney changed and why a hundred years later, fans are still waiting for a faithful adaptation. Missed opportunity. I do love Minnie Driver's Jane, but of course the real Jane was a blonde from Baltimore. While I'm at it, you guys should have watched the original "King Kong" (1933).

May i remind you that Hunchback of Notre Dame was also "rated G" and a baby was nearly drowned in a well in the first 5 minutes, there's assault, murder, burning at the stake, abuse and much more in it. The late 90s was a wild time

All the films from the Disney renaissance, including Hunchback, Mulan and The Lion King, were given a G rating (and a U rating in the UK, which is basically the same thing). It's crazy that these films put so much insane intense stuff into their stories and still got slapped with that kind of low rating, while more modern Disney films get given PG ratings despite being much tamer in terms of content

I saw all the animated Disney movies from the 90s, except this one. I was 12 when it came out in 1999 and I guess I just wasn’t interested in seeing animated movies anymore. It came out the sametime Star Wars: The Phantom Menace came out

I just gotta say, "The Legend of Tarzan" animated follow up is RAD! It adapts the original Edgar Rice Burroughs stories and fits them into the movie and series tone, like it makes it so fun to see what Tarzan fights next. Plus they use the Phil Collins Two Worlds theme as the main theme, and every song goes hard!

I remember this series! It was so much fun!

I hadn’t realized til you mentioned it how dark Tarzan really was for a G rated film. Clayton’s death was one thing, but on top of that, you saw the bodies of Tarzan’s parents not even 5 minutes after introducing them. Also love how you’re introducing all these Disney classics to Jen. I don’t know if she’s seen The Lion King, but that reaction would be priceless.

The reason why most of the characters and the tea pot all look like Beauty And The Beast characters is because the lead animator for this movie (Glen Keane) was also an animator on Beauty And The Beast.

I love the memes that showed up about Tarzan and Jane swinging on the vine at the end. Since he's carrying Jane with both arms, and the vine is behind them, Tarzan can only be gripping it with his buns of steel.

The voice of Jane (Minnie Driver) also played Skylar in Good Will Hunting another fantastic film

That’s honestly so sweet you sing that song to your son. Part of me can’t wait to be a dad some day just to be able to sing this to my kids 😊 Phil Collins just hits that hard

"Late into their 40's in the jungle" Im dead 🤣🤣

Tarzan's tree surfing wasn't just inspired from Tony Hawk but Tarzan's main animator Glean Keane (who also animated The Beast from Beauty and the Beast, Ariel from The Little Mermaid, the title characters of Aladdin and Pocahontas and later did Captain Long John Silver in Treasure Planet) got inspiration from his son who at the time did skateboarding and snowboarding.

For me, "Greystoke: The Legend of Tarzan, Lord of the Apes " is one of the best film adaptations

So here’s a fun fact for y’all. The neighborhood of Tarzana, California (which is somewhere in the Valley), is actually named for the character of Tarzan. Edgar Rice Burroughs, who wrote the Tarzan stories, established Tarzana, California, as his own personal ranch.

22:54 Jen really hit the Speak no evil, Hear no evil See no evil on accident🤣🤣🤣

“This is supposed to be a children's movie” In fact it is, and I generally believe. That is to say, personally speaking, I who was born in '99 and grew up with these movies, cannot deny that I did suffer from the impact of several deaths that occurred at Disney but I never hated them, because there was always resilience and/or learning. At that age I didn't understand much about references or words but I flowed more from the feeling and emotion they generated in me, and I learned a lot from those movies that show you a certain reality of life compared to recent ones. On the other hand, I feel that they are films for all of us who carry our inner child, even adults enjoyed these films and continue to do so, Disney created children's films for all children and those who were children, something that I regret losing little by little… It was magnificent

This movie is the peak of Disney 2D animation before 3D took over.

I can’t hear you’ll be in my heart without tearing up. I held my newborn daughter and watched this. She is now 24 and I have remarried and her and I danced to this song at my wedding

I can't believe I never caught the beauty and the beast references. The movie does get a cartoon called "The Legend of Tarzan" and it's pretty cool

Holden I agree with you Claytons death traumatized as a kid too also Ursalas , Scars as well.

Hearing how much Jen loves gorillas...I was very eager to see how she would react to the first few minutes. Didn't disappoint! Also, people hype up Phil Collins a lot, which is more than deserved, but the overall score is phenomenal. Mark Mancina absolutely killed it. Personal favorite is "A Wondrous Place" when Tarzan is taking the group up to the gorillas after Kerchak is chasing the others away. Between the score and animation, it's textbook combination on how the score can so heavily complement. Freaking loved it.

7:00 Holden do not be ashamed of singing bangers to your kid🔥❤❤

As someone who studied animation and works in the industry, Tarzan's actual animation never fails to amaze me. How anatomically accurate the drawing to his body and movement was, and how meticulously detailed his animation was done is masterclass. So impressive!

They did an animated series based after the end of the film. It was your typical saturday morning cartoon series but it was good. More human characters came to the island and started modernising it somewhat, Clayton's sister was introduced trying to get revenge, dinosaurs, giant anaconda, the leopand people and other stuff. It was fun.

I don't normally comment, but i want to share my opinion. Love you both and these videos and so glad you're doing a video on this. This film holds a special place in my heart as some of my earliest memories of a child was watching this on VHS with my dad. Constantly, where the VHS broke. Sadly my dad is no longer with us, but this film is so special because it reminds me of him. And the meaning behind the excellent songs performed by Phil Collins also reminds me of him. Truly my favourite Disney film/film in general.

Lance Hendrickson portrayed ''Kerchak'', Minnie Driver was ''Jane'', Nigel Hawthorne was ''Professor Porter'', Brian Blessed was ''Clayton''. The character of Clayton is ironic because, Tarzan's actual name is John Clayton, Lord Greystoke in the novel.

Tarzan does get his own TV show as well as a prequel. Both have likely forgotten by now.

As far as I’m aware, Belle and Jane are technically related in a kinda unconfirmed theory way that some Disney peeps say is true 🤷‍♂️ Same as Tarzan being the young brother of Anna and Elsa, which the director of frozen confirmed as his kinda canon take on the story

Two worlds, son of man, Stanger like me, and you'll be in my heart are all absolute bangers...and happy 3 month early 1st birthday to your baby boy!!!

This is my favourite animation movie of all time. I just can never put into words how much this movie means to me. Forever thankful to glen keane & Phil collins for there work in this masterpiece movie.

Holden & Jen Hardman, Your videos always make me happy, so I subscribed!

I liked this movie so much as a kid that for boredom relief my cousins would ask me to recite the ENTIRETY of the movie from memory...and I would happily oblige lol this was me and my moms special movie. To this day I can't hear You'll be in my Heart without getting a little choked up.

My childhood comoletly. Grew up on the classic disney movies and often listen to the soundtracks well into being an adult. Having three kids now myself i passed on these movies to them and they know them all just as much as i do. Tarzan and Hercules were my two favorites and remain still to this day. Hercules should be next

I love how both "Tarzan yells" use the same notes but are harmonized differently, the first one changing and new at a pivotal moment of victory, the second one firmly on the tonic chord moving to a suspension and resolving back, to show finality.

I always wonder if Tarzan was ever told that Sabor was the one that killed his real family

I swear the amount of movies I’ve know seen Jen see, she cares wayyy more about animal lives than human lives 😂.

This is my favorite of the Disney Renaissance movies, and always has been. Nostalgia is part of it, but as i get older, I only appreciate the technical and narrative aspects of it even more. To me, it was the most emotionally impactful, it has my favorite opening sequence, maybe there was a little too much Phil Collins, but the music fit really well. I still tear up during the seen where Kala shows Tarzan the tree house, and the mix of traditional and digital animation was absolutely beautiful.

CANT BELIEVE THIS MOVIE WILL BE 25 Years old!?!?

Funny that you reference beauty and the beast. There is a theory that some of the Disney characters are connected. Apparently Jane is the granddaughter or great granddaughter of belle since they have the similar color outfits, the tea cups, and her attraction to beast like men. Tarzan is actually the brother of Elsa and Anna. Their parents left on the ship that sunk and reportedly died but really they escaped and landed in Africa and had baby Tarzan during the voyage. The ship that sunk is the same ship in the little mermaid.

Would everybody PLEASE STOP labeling everything as “underrated!?” I don’t know why or when “underrated” became everybody’s favorite word, but people need to tone down the use of the word “underrated!” It’s annoying as hell!!

One of the very best soundtracks of any Disney movie. Phil Collins really knocked it out of the park AND he sings in - I think - every single language the movie was released on. Impressive stiff!

"Son of Man" by Phil Collins is so good!

Everyone is talking about Phil Collins and I want to add: Ever since I heard You'll be in my Heart at a young age, I knew it was going to be the song I sing to my baby. I'm still waiting for that day.

This was and is still my favourite Disney movie. Mulan is a close second but this one just hits all the right spots.

As is tradition, if you liked the music in Tarzan, you should consider Brother Bear, which has lots of Phil Collins and similar themes on nature, belonging, family, responsibility, balance, empathy for those unlike you, and loss. Just as heart-wrenching at points, though, if not more so.

Also, a metric tonne of things were changed from Burroughs’ story for the film. For example, Sabor the leopard. Originally Sabor was a lion but lions don’t live in rainforests. Leopards do live in rainforests but have also adapted to living in the savanna and grasslands.

HA! Holden sings Tarzan songs to Baby Hero everyone point and laugh!!!! 😂👇

The scene in which she names the baby Tarzan is a great tribute to Bambi. It's almost line for line.

So glad you are checking this out!! I remember seeing this at a double feature drive in when I was about 5 and as I’ve gotten older appreciate it more especially Phil collins who Smacked the soundtrack out of the park.

My childhood is nothing without this movie❤❤❤❤ even the game❤ nostalgia ❤❤❤

Tarzan was actually animated by Glen Keane; the same animator who did the Beast.

That intro was gold...

Greystoke, the legend of Tarzan Lord of the apes (1984) starring Christopher Lambert, Andie McDowell and Ian Holm was my first introduction to the character of Tarzan, good movie “razor….mirror….”

7:55 god this part of the PS1 video game is an absolute core memory

I was just watching this a few days ago on Disney + but in Spanish. I grew up watching it on the VHS tape in English. It’s still a great movie to watch with anyone. What Disney fans notice is that some characters are modeled after the ones before them so it can be distracting at times

This is one of, if not THE first movies I ever watched. The score is phenomenal, the story is timeless. This movie has a very special place in my heart.

Tarzan is awesome, his holding up the leopards body and his icon yell. And the music is amazing, Phil Collins did an amazing job with it.

My favorite Disney movie. One of the only Disney movies my dad would sit down and watch with me, plus you have the tarzan show that came after this that is A+

I remember watching this with my dad in a movie theatre. The soundtrack blew me away. The action was great and the heart was there, too. Great experience.

grew up watching it and love it all

25:28 not in this or any of Disney’s other Tarzan products, no. However, Edgar Rice Burroughs does give Tarzan a son in some of the stories. In fact the third such story was literally called Son of Tarzan.

Tarzan first started out as a novel by Edgar Rice Burroughs which was adapted by many liv action movies, starting as early as the silent film era and later into comic books (it was through knowledge of these comics and films, while I haven't read or seen them myself, I came familiar with Tarzan, including the swedish children's television show Trazan Apansson och Banarne, which slightly parodied Tarzan, though the character along with Lee Falk's The Phantom are mentioned within the show). It wasn't until after the mid-90's that Disney did this animated version of Tarzan, which got released in 1999.

Holden & Jen Hardman, Subscribed because your videos are always awesome!

I grew up in a pretty poor family. So my first movie experience was pretty late. This was my first cinema experience. It was AWESOME! I remember that whole day. Going to the movies, then McDonald's after. From a Norwegian, being that outside of what all my friends did, it was horrible! So being ble to see this when it came out, and being part of the talk at school for a while was awesome! I am 36 in a few days, but I'll never forget that day. Still love this movie. Always will.

It is wonderful to see you guys experiencing the Disney/Pixar world of animation. I hope that your journey will include "Coco" and "Brave". Brave puts a whole new spin on the Disney princess. Both fabulous and detailed animations with wonderful stories AND messages.

Have yall seen the memes with Tarzan swinging on the vines holding Jane with both hands…? And did you catch the cameo from Mrs. Potts when the gorillas discovered the camp?

This is my ALL TIME favorite disney movie. Son of Man and Two Worlds One Family songs are def the best songs in all of Disney. Phil Collins goes soo hard in this movie

Loved this movie when I was a kid and still love it now as an adult.

After “When You Wish Upon a Star” …. “You’ll Be in My Heart” sits in the number 2 spot.

I love Tarzan it's one of my favorite's. It is very similar to George of the Jungle

Edgar Rice Burroughs, who was the author of the Tarzan novels, was once asked that if Tarzan would be animated, who would he want to do it. he said Disney!

I adore Tarzan, it's one of my favorite animated movies ever. I watched it way too many times when I was probably way too old to do so (13/14), but this was when my parents divorced and it was a source of solace... Love the music, the story, the animation and, one underrated aspect that wasn't mentioned, it was just how romantic it is. Tarzan and Jane as a couple just makes me happy. And of course I ecstatic when it was chosen as one of the worlds for the first Kingdom Hearts, even if it ended up being one of the most confusing to navigate.

I read through all the original Edgar Rice Burroughs books and am happy to say that this is an underrated classic!😊

The animated series follow up is still great if you guys want to check it out on your own time. Still one of my favorite Disney shows.
