9 Insane Movie Theories That Actually Make Sense

1. The King & Queen From Frozen Are Actually Tarzan's Parents

Here's one that is sure to blow you mind in a bunch of different ways, given that it links two beloved Disney movies in an unexpected way: Frozen and Tarzan.

Okay, so first of all, remember that Elsa and Anna's parents - the King and Queen of the fictional kingdom of Arandelle - go away at the beginning of Frozen. It's then implied that they are killed when their ship is destroyed in a storm; they embark "across the sea" and never return.

Now, think back to the first scene in Tarzan; a flaming ship is caught in a terrible storm, and the only survivors are a man, a woman and a baby. They make their way by rowboat to a deserted island, only for the man and woman to end up getting killed by a cheetah. The child survives, though, and grows up to be... Tarzan.

Get the link? That's right: one very popular fan theory denotes that Tarzan's parents are the former King and Queen of Arandelle, making him the brother of Elsa and Anna. When you consider it, this connection fits together pretty well - not to mention the fact that the King and Queen of Arandelle look very, very similar to Tarzan's parents.

Not convinced? Chris Buck, the director of Frozen, is a firm supporter of this theory. And given that he was also the man behind Tarzan (yes!), his opinion counts.
