Tarzan and Jane by Joe Kubert

[pandaimitator]

I don't know if anyone (else) ever wondered how exactly Korak the killer was sired, but if you're curious, I wrote it, and you can find it here.

It's also the chapter where I most channel my inner Burroughs, in terms of scenic descriptions and flow (not racism - ain't touching that!).

So if you feel like your day is missing some Edwardian smut and you are in need of 2,5 pages of slowburn foreplay with minimal touch, go check it out.

(and leave me a Kudos, a comment or interact with me somehow)

Does Anyone Care About TARZAN?

Does Anyone Care About TARZAN?

Tarzan, the classic pulp hero created by Edgar Rice Burroughs, may be heading to the screen once again. Sony Pictures has picked up the screen rights to the character from Burroughs’ estate, Edgar Rice Burroughs Inc., and is seeking to do a “total reinvention” of the character and intellectual property. No writer, filmmaker, or producer is attached as the studio looks for a top-down re-imagining…

Tarzan Watch: Greystoke - the Legend of Tarzan, Lord of the Apes (1984)

this is the most pretentious possible Tarzan poster

Watched:  04/10/2023

Format:  HBOmax

Viewing:  First

Director:  Hugh Hudson

I can only imagine what the pitch meeting was for this movie, and I can totally see how it happened.  

In 1981, Hugh Hudson had directed Chariots of Fire, a movie that was a smash hit about pasty British guys running foot races and worrying about religion.  Like, you couldn't escape the movie, which I watched on TV once when I was sick as a kid and immediately erased from my memory.  But it was a big @#$%ing deal when adults went to the cinema.  

I'm sure it's great.  But it was an unlikely hit, and won Best Picture.  Career made for somebody.

So when the director of the footrace movie comes to you and says "we're gonna do Tarzan.  But now it's a prestige costume drama about how Tarzan is, in fact, a very sad ape man.  He is not a super-human living among men, continually pursued by hot women and fighting weird alien threats and large animals.  Instead, he's a kind of skinny French guy who does stuff you've seen apes do at the zoo.  But, you know, it's quite sad" I guess you trust and give that guy a sack of cash to give it a go.

A bunch of other people had seen this movie, and had more or less ape-blocked me from seeing it over the years as every time I said "I've not seen this, but I'd like to" I'd be told "No.  It is not good."  And I was like "okay, fair enough."  But tonight that didn't work, and I settled in for 2 hours and 15 minutes of sad Tarzan.

Look, at the end of the day, someone needed to realize a grown man imitating an ape is not what Tarzan is, exactly.  Or that this would be a good thing to see on screen when it did happen.  I don't know if they thought they were getting the magic on camera by having Christopher Lambert oop every time he felt an emotion, or basically having him play an ape who occasionally mutters short sentences.  Frankly, this Tarzan seems positively ready for an institution, and so it makes for an utterly unbuyable love story between John Greystoke and Jane Porter, but it's the sexy 80's, so you know they're gonna bang.  And, indeed, they do.

I've read the first Tarzan book, seen a few other Tarzan movies and read (and re-read) a Marvel comics adaptation of the first part of the first novel a fair bit, and you kind of realize the quick pitch version of the Greystokes winding up in Africa and their time there before things go sideways is more crucial than this movie thought.  Add in that this movie really, really struggles with whether Tarzan is a feral person or has the astonishing intellect of the Tarzan of the novel in order to hew closer to a very 1980's story about man and nature, man's nature and nurture, and lacking basic reasoning skills in early 20th Century Scotland.

I can maybe get with a "but what if Tarzan really happened?" angle, but you're in a constant state of "yes, but..." regression that more or less flatlines at baby John Clayton dead in the jungle two days after his discovery by Kala.  So you have to maybe accept even more, but more nuanced, absurdities than even the original novel doles out in order to buy the film.  The casting of Lambert is odd, in part because he's not exactly Johnny Weismuller, and it's difficult to believe this guy survived in the jungle against apes and leopards. But it's the fact that when Tarzan is home, he's both utterly alien to himself and the world around him, but no one seems to notice?  As he's all but flinging poo, people are just jabbering away at him.  

What's oddest is that because Lambert is fairly successful at becoming an ape(mentally), it feels as if there's no inner world to Tarzan in some ways.  We have no idea if he understands anything said to him, or the complexity of his predicament.  He self soothes by ooping and rolling around.  It's incredibly weird that the movie doesn't seem to think this is a problem.  Or maybe it's an unsolvable problem?  There's just a peculiar distance between the characters and the viewer, all of them - not just Clayton, that it's a bit odd.  

All of that is, in it's way... kind of passable.  But the movie is also morbidly predictable.  Maybe it's the era, or maybe it's that they treat Tarzan more like a cub in Born Free than a human character, but you know this shit ends with Tarzan seeing his kindly grandfather/ benefactor croaking and the demands of the world becoming too much so he wanders back into the jungle to sweeping orchestral music before our ape man ever leaves the jungle.  You know Jane will stand there impassiveley while Tarzan chooses a swift death in the jungle over endless food, luxury and sex with an actual human.  You know the noble Belgian will try to get him back to the jungle when, frankly, he's probably gonna get killed after living soft for a year.

I am sure this felt mind-blowingly clever as they were making it, but the end result is a sad man making monkey noises for 90 minutes, and then running away.  And that's maybe not what people were thinking of when they showed up to see a Tarzan flick with a budget.   

Jamie mentioned the movie felt weirdly disjointed, and upon review...  yeah.  It kinda was.  The movie can feel like it's borrowing from movies you already know, but doesn't do much with those storylines, so it's like these barely realized vignettes.  Like - the entire storyline of Jane having a suitor goes nowhere and doesn't really do what it's intended to do - ie: show Jane how Tarzan is more noble than the nobleman.  She doesn't see him beat the young helper guy.  She doesn't see Tarzan save the day.  She just dumps the guy for reasons that are vague (I mean, except wanting to live in a sweet mansion).  That's just an example.  The movie kind of does a lot of this.

It's a shame, because there's maybe a path for a Tarzan movie that tries to ground itself a bit more.  But the 1980's was probably the last decade to tell a story about Tarzan without culture's need to navigate and acknowledge Europe's fuckery in colonial Africa.  I think now you'd need to set the story post WWII or something and be careful.  ERB's original prose isn't quite as racist as you'd expect, but it's certainly a product of its time (ie: it's still racist, just not as nut punchingly straightforwardly racist as other things you'll stumble over).  

I kinda liked the 2016 Tarzan, because (a) the casting was rock solid (b) 3rd reel animal rampage and (c) making Lord Greystoke here anti-Colonial and giving a convincing argument for his desire to return home.  It's got issues, and I wanted more monkey-business, but it was all right.  That said - it was still mostly a reminder:  oh my god.  This is really hard now.

Anyway, I'm glad I finally watched it.  It made excellent use of Andie McDowall's frankly stunning hair.  Rick Baker's ape suits were everything I'd read about.  The set and locations look phenomenal.  There were genuine moments of hope for me that this might be better than expected.

Tarzan (John Clayton II, vescomte Greystoke) és un personatge de ficció, un nen salvatge arquetípic criat a la selva africana pels grans simis Mangani; més tard experimenta la civilització, només per rebutjar-la i tornar a la natura com un aventurer heroic. El personatge ha estat representat de diverses maneres com a articulat i sofisticat com a les novel·les originals, i com un salvatge noble amb habilitats lingüístiques limitades, com a les pel·lícules protagonitzades per Johnny Weissmuller.

Creat per Edgar Rice Burroughs, Tarzan va aparèixer per primera vegada a la novel·la Tarzan of the Apes (publicada per parts en revista el 1912, publicació de llibre el 1914), i posteriorment en 23 seqüeles, diversos llibres de Burroughs i altres autors, i innombrables obres en altres mitjans, tant autoritzats com no autoritzats.

Biografia del personatge[modifica]

Tarzan és fill d'un lord i una dama britànics que van ser abandonats a la costa d'Angola per mariners amotinats. Quan Tarzan era un nen, la seva mare va morir, i el seu pare va ser assassinat per Kerchak, líder de la tribu dels simis per qui va ser adoptat Tarzan.

Poc després de la mort dels seus pares, Tarzan es va convertir en un nen salvatge, i la seva tribu de simis es coneix com els Mangani, grans simis d'una espècie desconeguda per la ciència. Kala és la seva mare simi adoptiva. Burroughs va afegir històries ocorregudes durant l'adolescència de Tarzan al seu sisè llibre de Tarzan, Jungle Tales of Tarzan.

Jane[modifica]

Quan tenia 18 anys, Tarzan coneix una jove americana anomenada Jane Porter. Ella i el seu pare i altres membres del seu grup es troben abandonats a la mateixa zona de la selva costanera on eren els pares humans de Tarzan 20 anys abans. Quan Jane torna als Estats Units, Tarzan abandona la selva a la seva recerca, el seu únic amor veritable. A The Return of Tarzan, Tarzan i Jane es casen. En llibres posteriors, viu amb ella durant un temps a Anglaterra. Tenen un fill, Jack, que pren el nom de simi Korak (l'assassí). Tarzan menysprea el que veu com la hipocresia de la civilització, així que Jane i ell tornen a l'Àfrica, fent la seva llar en una extensa finca que esdevé una base per a les aventures posteriors de Tarzan.

Tal com es va revelar a Tarzan's Quest, Tarzan, Jane, l'amic mico de Tarzan, Nkima, i els seus aliats van obtenir algunes de les píndoles de Kavuru que atorguen la immortalitat al seu consumidor.

Nom[modifica]

Tarzan en una exhibició en un parc d'atraccions d'Ankara

"Tarzan" és el nom-simi de John Clayton, vescomte de Greystoke, segons Tarzan, Lord of the Jungle de Burroughs. Més tard, fonts menys canòniques, en particular la pel·lícula Greystoke de 1984, el converteixen en comte de Greystoke. El narrador de Tarzan of the Apes descriu tant "Clayton" com "Greystoke" com a noms ficticis, la qual cosa implica que, dins del món de ficció que habita Tarzan, pot tenir un nom real diferent.

Burroughs va considerar altres noms per al personatge, com ara "Zantar" i "Tublat Zan", abans de decidir-se per "Tarzan".[1] Tot i que els drets d'autor de Tarzan of the Apes han caducat als Estats Units i a altres països, Edgar Rice Burroughs, Inc. reclama el nom "Tarzan" com a marca comercial.

Capacitats físiques[modifica]

L'agilitat, la velocitat i la força de Tarzan li permeten matar un lleopard a The Adventures of Tarzan de 1921.

L'educació de Tarzan a la selva li dóna habilitats molt més enllà de les dels humans corrents. Aquests inclouen escalar, aferrar-se i saltar, així com qualsevol gran simi. Utilitza branques, gronxadors de vinyes per viatjar a gran velocitat, i pot utilitzar els seus peus com les mans (prefereix anar descalç perquè confia en la flexibilitat dels peus descalços), una habilitat adquirida entre els simis antropoides.

La seva força, velocitat, resistència, agilitat, reflexos i habilitats de natació són extraordinàries; ha lluitat no només amb simis adults, sinó també amb goril·les, lleons, rinoceronts, cocodrils, pitons, lleopards, taurons, tigres, cavallets de mar gegants i fins i tot dinosaures (quan va visitar Pellucidar). Tarzan és un rastrejador hàbil, i fa servir la seva oïda excepcional i l'olfacte agut per seguir les seves preses o evitar els depredadors.

Llengua i alfabetització[modifica]

Tal com es va representar originalment, Tarzan/John Clayton és molt intel·ligent i articulat, i no parla en anglès trencat com el representen les pel·lícules clàssiques dels anys 30. Pot comunicar-se amb moltes espècies d'animals de la selva, i s'ha demostrat que és un impressionista hàbil, capaç d'imitar perfectament el so d'un tret.

Tarzan és alfabetitzat en anglès abans de trobar-se per primera vegada amb altres persones de parla anglesa. La seva alfabetització és autodidacta després de diversos anys en la seva primera adolescència visitant la cabana de troncs de la seva infància i mirant els llibres d'imatge i manualitats per a nens. Finalment llegeix tots els llibres de la col·lecció de llibres portàtils del seu pare i és plenament conscient de la geografia, la història bàsica del món i el seu arbre genealògic. És "trobat" pel viatger francès Paul d'Arnot, que li ensenya els fonaments de la parla humana i torna amb ell a la civilització. Quan Tarzan es troba amb d'Arnot, li diu (per escrit): "Jo només parlo la llengua de la meva tribu: els grans simis que eren de Kerchak; i una mica de les llengües de Tantor, l'elefant, i Numa, el lleó., i la de la resta de gent de la selva l'entenc".

Tarzan pot aprendre una nova llengua en pocs dies, en última instància, parlant moltes llengües, inclosa la dels grans simis, francès, finès, anglès, holandès, alemany, suahili, moltes altres llengües bantú, àrab, grec antic, llatí antic i maia, com ara així com les llengües dels homes formiga i de pel·lucidar.

ohh, that's too bad about your computer not being able to play dreamlight valley! i have heard that the game is supposed to have a mobile version, but i'm not sure if it's been released yet or not, so that could be something to look into. also, i can totally see that about tarzan wanting to dive right in and learn about everything around him. i'm sure that if jane were there with him she'd also be really excited to show him new things and help him with anything he didn't understand. oof, yeah, i didn't wanna be too harsh about wish in case you were still really looking forward to the movie, but i admit that my mixed feelings about it are more on the negative side. i like a couple of the songs, but they're riddled with strange and poorly written lyrics (for example, "i'm a star, watch out world here i are" or "i let you live here for free and i don't even charge rent") and some of them sound so generic that i just feel like i've already heard them before. after seeing the concept art and hearing about some of the ideas that didn't make it in, i ended up feeling like the movie had a lot of missed potential. it's a shame, especially since this was disney's 100th anniversary film. there is one other tarzan reference besides the shoutout in the credits, though, so definitely look out for that when you watch it! that's true about mark mancina, i see a lot of praise for tarzan's soundtrack that's specifically about phil collins, but mark created such a good score to go with his work. i'm really glad he got to work on moana as well. ooh i see, that does all sound pretty interesting! i love to read as well and pretty much always have a long list of things i'd like to read, and never enough time for all of them LOL. but i'll definitely have to add the tarzan novels to that list and try to check them out someday. are there any other tarzan movies you enjoy besides disney's version? -🌟

I looked, and is is available through Apple Arcade… but same problem, don't have a compatible device, lol. Not into computers/phones/etc enough to try and keep up with the latest. Would rather stretch my devices as long as I can and save the money for my collection. Oh well, maybe someday I'll play it. Would be so awesome to see more of Jane helping Tarzan learn new things though!

I agree with you on the lyrics, some of them are so bad!! I remember hearing those lines for the first time and feeling embarrassed for them. They sound like they're from a cheap bootleg ripoff, not from the most prestigious animation company in the world. They should be ashamed of themselves, they used to have incredible song lyrics.

That's awesome there's one other Tarzan reference though!! A very good reason to give it a watch!

Mark's score for Tarzan and Brother Bear are so beautiful. As soon as I saw he was doing Moana I knew I was going to love it!

Ah, the pain of never having enough time to read… and it always seems that when you do, you can't find anything to read! I'm currently halfway through the Asian Saga by James Clavell. I've read those books so many times I've lost count. I was about a third of the way through Shogun when I found out that there's a new FX series based on the book that's going to be on Disney+ at the end of February! Although I've finished reading Shogun since, I'm trying to finish reading the other 5 books before the series starts… I don't think I'm going to make it, lol.

I hope you enjoy the Tarzan novels if you get to read them!!

I haven't seen many other Tarzan movies, but I did really enjoy Greystoke with Christopher Lambert and Andie MacDowell. Of the ones I've seen it feels the closet to the books. And it has an unexpected connection to the Disney version… Andie MacDowell's voice was dubbed by Glenn Close, so it's like seeing Jane and hearing Kala!

Growing up I watched the Tarzan tv series starring Wolf Larson and Lydie Denier, which was my first introduction to Tarzan. It takes place in more modern times, and Jane was French in it. I watched it again a few years ago, and it was definitely not as good as I remember it being. But as a kid I found it thrilling, used to stay up until 3 am every Saturday to watch it!

Finding inspiration for the clothes that the characters are wearing is fast becoming a top three activity of writing a period piece. I had Hazel Tennington dressed in this gorgeous dress as she frolicked with the cream of society. This chapter doesn't work as a stand alone so I'll just have to direct you to the entire work here, should you be thus inclined. The current arc started on chapter 10.

I am sure many of you have been mislead before by the critics.

What an amazing movie, the full scope of the movie was incredible-storyline, plot, acting, action, and most of all the cinematography!! This is not the Tarzan movies that you grew up with!! This is the coming of age Tarzan movie that is finally deserving of the big screen and all it entails!! Don't make the mistake I almost made and let it slip by me. We figured it would be an OK movie, but in actuality were totally blown away. We read some of the reviews here on Metacritic, and the majority were favorable-the user reviews. Then I mentioned that a co-worker at work was raving about the Tarzan movie-which wasn't on my list to see. We read the user reviews on Ghostbusters and decided against it. Then I mentioned Don't make the mistake that I almost made!! GO SEE THIS MOVIE!!! My friend and I were trying to decide on a movie on a kind of the spur of the moment thing. … Expandĭon't make the mistake that I almost made!! GO SEE THIS MOVIE!!! My friend and I were trying to decide on a movie on a kind of the spur of the moment thing. The history may have off a little (a little.), but this movie has created at least one discussion about mistakes our forebears made, and that can't be a bad thing. Maybe, but I will say this - the movie gave me a chance to talk to my son about colonial Africa for the first time. And then there is Jane.one should not mess with Jane and expect Tarzan to be cool about it, right? I see reviews calling the back-story heavy-handed revisionist history. Sam Jackson comes along for the ride an a flimsy (but disbelief-suspendable) reason that ends up adding to Tarzan's motivation. BUT.he obviously isn't having that any time soon. The story itself is straightforward - Tarzan is brought back to Africa to unwittingly help exploit its population and satisfy an old grudge at the same time. This felt like old-fashioned story telling with a generous helping of digital cinema thrown in for effect. We both enjoyed the massive-scale landscapes, the back-and-forth between George and Tarzan (and Jane and evil Belgian guy), the action sequences, and the overall story arc. 100% glad I did it that way - we both enjoyed it tremendously, and seeing the massive amount of negative reviews would have spoiled the fun. We both enjoyed the massive-scale landscapes, I saw this with my son prior to seeing the reviews. Greystoke: The Legend of Tarzan, Lord of the Apes has been given the gift of seeing his deceased brother, but when a new love interest is in trouble he must choose between saving a life or continuing to see his brother everyday.I saw this with my son prior to seeing the reviews. It's not surprising why it was eventually rated 6.2, this movie is guaranteed to hold your interest for the 6.2 as you notice that you are relating to the characters.
