Tarzan uses this discovery to force Zugor into letting the boy stay with him. He encounters a bad-tempered, old gorilla who at first keeps the boy distant, but Tarzan discovers that this old gorilla actually is Zugor, who uses hollow trees as megaphones to amplify his voice and pretend to be a monster to scare other jungle creatures away from his territory and food. But they fear the Zugor as much as Tarzan does, and when the booming call of the monster echoes through the valley, Tarzan is able to escape from them. He finds his way to a rocky place known as Dark Mountain after he was chased by Sabor the leopard, inhabited by two hulking, spoiled gorilla brothers, the dim-witted Uto (voiced by Brad Garrett), the exceedingly violent Kago (voiced by Ron Perlman), and their controlling, over-protective Mama Gunda (voiced by Estelle Harris). When an accident leaves his mother thinking that Tarzan has died and the other apes feeling that Tarzan has reached a fitting end, the boy believes it best for everyone involved if he runs away. He is disappointed that he can't run as quickly as the other young apes in his family, and his attempts to prove himself resulting in chaos. It just bothered me.As a young boy being raised by gorillas, Tarzan (voiced by Harrison Chad) is worried that a fabled monster known as the Zugor (voiced by George Carlin) will someday catch him. It’s a kid’s film though, and they won’t know about Carlin’s comedy, so they probably won’t care. If you’ve seen his stand-up specials, playing the somewhat wise old ape isn’t really his thing. It’s a nice little mentor story, but it seems odd to hear Carlin’s voice in the role.
TARZAN 2 HOW TO
Zugor helps train Tarzan, who is too slow to keep up with the gorillas, about how to use trickery to survive. Legendary comedian George Carlin steps into the role of Zugor who is an older ape that has to rely on trickery after he got left behind by his troop. It’s got its funny moments with Brad Garrett and Ron Pearlman voicing the two bully gorillas that first capture Tarzan and later capture Terk and Tantor. They’re not bad, they’re just not good and that’s how “Tarzan II” comes across. Let’s be clear, I also haven’t hated any of them.
I grew up watching a lot of the straight to video sequels of Disney classics, and outside of the “Aladdin” sequels “Return of Jafar” and “Aladdin and the King of Thieves ” I haven’t really liked any of them. The music features two new songs from Phil Collins, neither as good as the songs from the original “Tarzan” and it re-purposes the catchy song “Son of Man” that was a highlight of the original soundtrack. The animation is fine, but not as crisp as the Walt Disney Animation Studios. This is a film that young kids will absolutely love, but I didn’t really care for. It follows in the same vein as many other sequels to Disney animated classics produced by the Disneytoon Studios. This is a cute kids film, but nothing more. While running, he gets captured by three other gorillas and must learn from the feared Zugor how to scare the gorillas and help his family. The Disneytoon Studios in Australia give us a look at one of Tarzan’s adventures as a kid growing up with apes in the direct to video sequel, “Tarzan II.” In this film, Tarzan feels like he’s endangering Kala’s life and runs away.
