I have, of late, noticed a distinct lack of simian action in movies.
There is the famous one of course, namely King Kong.
Anymore?
Well, Greystoke, but he was more of a man raised by monkeys, so not strictly the same.
Orangutans!
One in The Cannonball Run - He drove a limo, drank beer and flipped the finger to Southern cops when pulled over.
And he may be related to perhaps the greatest movie ape ever...
Ladies and Gentlemen, a round of applause for..*drumroll*....Clyde.
Eastwood's sidekick in the "Any Which Way" movies.
A brilliant fighter, able to help with repairing Orville's truck and always "stealing my goddamn Oreo's" according to Eastwood's gnarly mum in those movies.
He would often lay in wait in dark barns and leap onto Eastwood to surprise him.
A bit like a monkey Kato from the Pink Panther movies.
Except Eastwood could never kick Clyde's behind, because as we all know, monkeys make excellent fighters.
And he even punched Hell's Angels upon the command of "Right Turn Clyde"
Any others? Er...
Well, Planet of The Apes of course, and that's being remade so we'll see what happens there, but I'm talking strictly about non-speaking monkeys that don't live in huts and bully humans into farming for them.
A few poor, poor films with monkeys as sidekicks in sports movies, but the best and most disturbing monkey film...Missing Link.
This was Elizabeth Shue's early role where she was menaced for 90 mins by a psycho gorilla wearing a tuxedo.
Fantastic.
Monkeys rule.

I still await a contract......
Don't forget that film with the monkey who was a pilot who had wings but was blind, then shot himself out of a cannon and landed in a volcano but survived because it turns out he was dead all along and was actualy another monkey who could see.
Or did I just dream that.

Right, I'm off to find the "monkeys in films database". I wonder if it exists?
People in monkey suits though.
I'm talking real monkeys, ones you can watch eat poo and run at windows when agitated.
People dressed as monkey's just dont cut it anymore.
"Gorillas In The Mist", a mix of people and live gorillas.
And had a couple of Silverbacks in.
Yes!

2001: A Space Oddysee.
I believe they are in bits of it...

Yeah but they dont appear in 12 Monkeys.
And Suzanne is back in the new one, dressed as Silent Bob.
With another one dressed as Jay.
Comedy monkey dancing in the trailer.
Long Live The Apes!
And, the planet of the apes are disqualified because they bullied people and made them into slaves, which wasnt nice.
And Dunston Checks in?
Sports monkey wasn't it?
Shameful.

Ook, ook, Suzanne at the end of Mallrats! She's mainly in the comics, but she's in there right at the end of the film.
There's Planet of the Apes soon and Dunston Checks In was on the other day.
