Talk:List of films about animals

Untitled

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)

List Cleanup

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.

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)
