Good list but why isn't Planet of the Apes in there? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A02:A03F:4C87:D100:AD9B:BF19:53B:B0BE (talk) 17:07, 9 September 2019 (UTC)Reply

List Cleanup

edit

I'm adding citations to this list and noticing a considerable number of films not ABOUT animals. For the purposes of this list, I would consider a movie to be about an animal if:

  • The main character is an animal
  • The majority of the ensemble are animals
  • The plot is primarily about an animal or interacting with animals

I would love more discussion on what constitutes being about an animal, but for the time being am removing movies that I do not believe meet the criteria and listing them below. If anyone disagrees with my assessment and wishes to re-list these films with appropriate citations, please feel free.

I'll revise this list as I remove more films.

In this same vein, I am considering removing all instances of giant monsters, considering the existence of List of films featuring giant monsters already exists and these creatures push the definition of "animal". However I will wait a month or so to allow time for discussion.

Yes, please!
I fully agree with you.
I also don't believe that Tarzan films belong to this list. Sebastián Arena...   11:58, 27 April 2024 (UTC)Reply
I'm seconding this, and the list of Tarzan movies are preserved below for anyone who would like to put them back (especially for any Tarzan films where animals play a featured role):
