Only for the ladies and the skin they are showing it's worth multiple views! But either way it's really entertaining flick.

Wow! Just recently I decided I want to watch all of the original Planet of the Apes movies AND the reboot movies AND the television show from the 1970s (I've never seen ANY of them-- originals, reboots, remakes or TV show-- all of the way through). I had planned to watch them all soon. So, I was going to do this anway. But then I got distracted bysomething else. What a coincidence, then, to come here and see this challenge. I might as well make it a monkey month, so I will participate here.

Speaking of here, I only just now showed up because I thought of a perfect reply to any thread about any movie. But the old Horror Board isn't there any more but here is here. So I will use my all-purpose perfect reply on some topic about some movie here. But I won't do it just yet, because there's too much hoopla about it now. I shouldn't have built it up too much. So I will just spring it on all of you later, when no one is expecting it.

Oh, and I'm also going to watch the Simpsons episode where they do the musical version of Planet of the Apes.

So many monkeys to behold.
Apes and such.
Hey gang, do I get any extra points if I fuck a monkey?

I don't trust my math abilities. I used to always screw up the numbers when I did the Orloks polls on IMDb. If anyone else wants to double-check my score, that'd be nice, but I'm too lazy to do it again.

If you film yourself fucking a monkey and post it on YT then we can all watch it and that will count. My guess is this will be a short. emoticon

Welcome aboard Mr. Yeah. Good call on the Simpsons episode - one of their best ones.

I came up with 5658 so it looks like you may have shorted yourself 50 points. That's damn close to over-throwing Caesar!

You were definitely the serial king. Which serials would you recommend?

Btw Patrick that is such a great picture from POTA. Obviously symbolism for playing blind, deaf and mute.

I really enjoy when film's recreate "classic" works of art. My favorite may be from Altman's MASH when he recreates The Last Supper:
