Tarzan & Jane

Tarzan & Jane is a Disney direct-to-video film released on July 23, 2002, sequel to the 1999 animated feature Tarzan, and uses three unaired episodes of the film's corresponding television series, The Legend of Tarzan. Tarzan II, a followup to the original film, was released in 2005. The film is set one year after the events of the first film.

Plot
The film makes use of a frame tale to present three self-contained "episodes" via flashback. Jane and Tarzan's first wedding anniversary has arrived, and Jane is trying to find a suitable present for her husband, with the help of the elephant Tantor, and the gorilla Terk.

When a party is suggested, the trio remember the disaster that occurred when three of Jane's friends arrive for a visit. Jane had organized an English-style picnic for her friends, but Tarzan had refused join them after believing Jane is embarrassed by him. The picnic is then interrupted when two panthers, Nuru and Sheeta attack Jane and her friends, forcing them to flee into the deeper regions of the jungle. As Jane teaches her friends a few survival techniques, they are once again ambushed by the panthers, only to then be saved when Tarzan rushes in.

Back to the present day, Jane ponders over the idea of expensive gifts, particularly jewelry, prompting Terk to remind her of the time Tarzan tried to get her a diamond. Tarzan had led two men, Johannes Niels and Merkus to a nearby volcano containing a diamond mine, only for them to turn on him once inside. The volcano then erupts with Tarzan, Jane and Professor Porter trapped inside, though they manage to escape before the lava flows. Tarzan then rescues Johannes and Merkus, only for them to lose their diamonds in the process.

Professor Porter then joins the conversation, suggesting to Jane that she and Tarzan should celebrate their anniversary with a dance. This causes Terk to bring up the time Jane's old friend Robert Canler visited. Things had gone well, despite Tarzan feeling jealous and mistrusting towards Canler, until Canler had revealed he was working as a double agent and had come for a code machine disguised as a music box he gave to Jane. He then kidnaps her, but is tracked down by Tarzan assisted by RAF pilot Nigel Taylor, who had been on Canler's trail.

After running out of ideas and realizing anniversaries would not fit in with Tarzan's uncivilized lifestyle, Jane returns to the treehouse, only to find it decorated and everyone, including Tarzan, who is wearing his father's suit, hosting a surprise party. Terk, Tantor and the Professor had known all along and Tarzan gives Jane a diamond ring made from the same diamonds in the volcano. The celebrations start as everyone dances, including Tarzan and Jane, as the story concludes with the couple dancing under the moonlight.

The Legend of Tarzan
This film is largely a flashback to three episodes of the TV series The Legend of Tarzan. The episodes in question are "Tarzan and the British Invasion", "Tarzan and the Volcanic Diamond Mine" and "Tarzan and the Flying Ace", the last three episodes of the show to be aired (but taking place much earlier in production order).

An adventure game on the DVD is also based on the series. It resembles a multiple choice story, featuring many different characters from the TV series.
