The 1999 Malay dub of Tarzan holds a legendary status for Malaysian Disney fans. Remarkably, it set a massive precedent that would not be repeated for over a decade. After Tarzan hit cinemas in 1999, it took another 14 years before Disney released another fully Malay-dubbed movie in theaters (which was Frozen in 2013).
