Which was made first The Monkey's Uncle or The Strongest Man in the World?
The Monkey's Uncle The Monkey's Uncle is a 1965 Walt Disney production starring Tommy Kirk as genius college student Merlin Jones and Annette Funicello (Who was a member of the mouseketeers from The Mickey Mouse Club) as his girlfriend, Jennifer. The title plays on the idiom "monkey's uncle" and refers to a chimpanzee named Stanley, Merlin's legal "nephew" (a legal arrangement resulting from an experiment to raise Stanley as a human); Stanley otherwise has little relevance to the plot. Jones invents a man-powered airplane and a sleep-learning system. The film is a sequel to the 1964 film "The Misadventures of Merlin Jones."
Tarzan the Ape Man (1932 film) Tarzan the Ape Man is a 1932 Pre-Code, American action adventure film featuring Edgar Rice Burroughs' famous jungle hero Tarzan and starring Johnny Weissmuller, Neil Hamilton, C. Aubrey Smith and Maureen O'Sullivan. It was Weissmuller's first of 12 "Tarzan" films. The film is loosely based on Burroughs' novel "Tarzan of the Apes" from approximately two decades earlier, with the dialogue written by Ivor Novello. The film was directed by W. S. Van Dyke. Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer released two remakes of "Tarzan, the Ape Man" in 1959 and in 1981, but each was a different adaptation of Rice Burroughs' novel.
