TARZAN THE APE MAN 1981 SWINGING MOVIE

Overcrank: In what may be the film's most infamous sequence, a Fight Scene between Tarzan and a snake is filmed entirely in slow motion.Parker had to abandon his wife in order to save her from succumbing to his mighty penis. He goes on to explain that he left Jane's mother because he 'loved her too much.' So, you see, Dr. Parker says, 'Your conception almost killed her.' No, not her birth, her conception. Out with a Bang: Telling Jane about her mother, Dr.Not Even Bothering with the Accent: Jane has an American accent while Richard Harris speaks with his native Irish accent.Then again, we also see a lot of topless Bo Derek, so at least it's equal opportunity this time. National Geographic Nudity: We see a lot of topless native women.And before you object that Edwardian underwear is not that revealing, note that she was in the water, rendering said underwear transparent. Naked First Impression: Jane is in her underwear when Tarzan meets her for the first time.Fanservice: Let's face it, they didn't cast Bo Derek for her acting talent. Orangutans and Burmese pythons are not native to Africa either. Misplaced Wildlife: Those are Asian elephants, not African elephants.

Male Gaze: Even though this is supposed to be from Jane's perspective, the movie is clearly a lot more excited about her body than Tarzan's body.

Logo Joke: The MGM lion emits the Tarzan yell instead of its usual roar.

Р’вЂќWHY DID YOU DO THIS?!?!? WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY?!?!?Р’вЂќ Parker seems to be, at best, only mildly aware that Jane and her mother are not actually the same person:

Incest Subtext: Jane is said to look a great deal like her mother.

Impaled with Extreme Prejudice: Jane's dad is killed when a native impales him a giant elephant tusk.

Hotter and Sexier: The whole point, pretty much.

Hollywood Natives: A tribe of these act as the villains at the end.

Budget-savingly, they never actually get there in this version.

Elephant Graveyard: As in the 1932 version, the expedition is looking for one of these.

This may be the first movie to treat Tarzan as a Period Piece, beating Greystoke: The Legend of Tarzan, Lord of the Apes by three years.

The Edwardian Era: Set in 1910, around the time when the original book was written.

For some reason, they don't seem to care about doing the same to their male captives. After capturing members of the expedition, the natives quickly set about putting Jane into this attire as well.

Body Paint: The hostile natives wear nothing but this and loincloths.

Bathe Her and Bring Her to Me: Happens to Jane as she is captured by the generic African savages and prepared as the royal bride for their chief, alongside getting a Body Paint.

'The seat of my pants' is short for 'fly by the seat of my pants' and comes from 1930s aviation parlance. In another scene, he mentions 'the seat of my pants' in reference to acting on instinct.Parker sings, 'Jerusalem.' Although the words were written by William Blake in 1804, they weren't put to music until 1916. Adaptational Nationality: Jane and her father are American in the original novels (and British in most adaptations) they're Irish in this movie, with Jane having a noticeable lack of accent.
