Trivia
This is the first Johnny Weissmuller Tarzan which doesn't feature the famous yodeling yell; neither from Tarzan himself, nor the altered versions from Jane nor Boy. When Jane is in trouble stuck below a tree, she simply calls out "Tarzan!"

Goofs
There are no deer in Africa, such as those shown in the opening sequence, peering at the water.

Quotes
Tarzan: Every time men bring guns, men bring trouble.

Brenda Joyce's Debut as Jane in Top-Notch RKO Entry...

TARZAN AND THE AMAZONS is closest in 'style' to the earlier MGM/Johnny Weissmuller 'Tarzan' films (offering a crocodile fight, a 'classic' safari with many more black extras than in any other RKO 'Tarzan' feature of the era, far above-average production values), and is most famous for introducing American Brenda Joyce as the new 'Jane', back from the war. Joyce, 33, blond and wholesomely beautiful, lacked Maureen O'Sullivan's intellectual 'spin' to the role, but worked well with the 41-year-old Weissmuller, while providing a mother figure for 'Boy' Johnny Sheffield that the predominately 'kid' audience could relate to.

With a cast of terrific character actors (including Henry Stephenson, Maria Ouspenskaya, and Barton MacLane), and a plot involving a 'lost' city of women (guaranteed to arouse male hormones), the end result is one of the best-remembered RKO entries, and great fun to watch!
