      Bad motion capture...looks like some high school kids were attempting their own version of Avatar.

        Have any of you noticed he wears pants in this one?

          Well my first thought was he shaved with his knife. I looked it up and as it turns out, I was right. According to Burroughs, Tarzan shaved with his knife to preserve some sense of humanity (and separation) from the gorillas after seeing men in books and noticing tribesman never had facial hair.

                    Tarzan's going to be fine. It's just taken the film industry a century to develop effects that can catch up with ERB's imagination. I also think the public doesn't know the character as well as we assume: last night, I was reading a really long thread on the official Legend of Tarzan FB page, and the guy who started it kept pushing that Tarzan was an American that hated black people. That's like saying Batman's from Metropolis and likes to commit crimes and leave riddles behind.

                      Gotta say, the teaser trailer has me hooked pretty good. Definitely a movie I will consider investing some time in.
                      sigpic Oh then, what's this? Big flashy lighty thing, that's what brought me here! Big flashy lighty things have got me written all over them. Not actually. But give me time. And a crayon.

                        I have a crazy idea and it probably won't won't work but what if they made Tarzan black?
