Title: TARZAN on TCM Post by: major jay on August 03, 2012, 05:44:05 PM I've watched a few TARZAN movies this afternoon and realized he's may be the most liberal character ever brought to screen.
He's a tree hugging, gun hating, vegetable eating, environmentalist hippie. Can you think of others that are similar? :teddyr: Title: Re: TARZAN on TCM Post by: LilCerberus on August 03, 2012, 08:45:35 PM Grizzly Adams... And considering Dan Haggerty became a drug dealer & turned out to be a homophobe (see http://www.badmovies.org/movies/pinkangels/ ), it also makes this tree hugger the perfect example of a left wing hypocrite!

Title: Re: TARZAN on TCM Post by: major jay on August 04, 2012, 10:39:13 AM TARZAN TRIUMPHS really tickled my funny bone. In it "Tarzan make war" against the Nazis, and near the end we have Cheeta machine gunning down a few and even boy kills one with a pistol. :buggedout:
The final scene has Cheeta on the radio with Berlin and the Nazis think he's Hitler. :smile: ldyDb-fWSps The last 3rd to TARZAN'S DESERT MYSTERY was great too. Lot'sa dinosaurs (outtakes from ONE MILLION BC) a giant spider, killer plants and more Nazis.

I love his Tarzan movies but I find those pretty rough going. There's one with a couple of hairy ape people which is OK, but I don't remember which one it is. :teddyr: Title: Re: TARZAN on TCM Post by: RCMerchant on August 06, 2012, 02:04:29 AM They finished off the day with a couple of Weissmuller's 'Jungle Jim' flicks.

I thought PYGMY ISLAND, with the little people from THE WIZARD OF OZ, wearing Beatles wigs, was pretty awesome. So is this poster.

TCM will be showing JUNGLE JIM movies every Saturday afternoon during September and most of October. :teddyr:
I've only seen one, PYGMY ISLAND, but they seem like they would appeal mainly to bad movie fans. Here's whats on. JUNGLE JIM THE LOST TRIBE CAPTIVE GIRL MARK OF THE GORILLA PYGMY ISLAND JUNGLE MANHUNT JUNGLE JIM IN THE FORBIDDEN LAND |
