@rich in washington - i remember that A8PE8 clip from an 80s movie called it came from hollywood. always wondered what it was from
Avatar Swag For Life Member 4:55pm
Rich in Washington:

I loved It Came From Hollywood! I was just thinking about that the other day. I saw it when it hit the theaters and it sort of got me hooked on bad movies as a teenager.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 4:55pm
Rich in Washington:

But yeah, A*P*E is amazingly horrible. It's South Korean. It's worth seeing if you love terrible movies.
Avatar 4:55pm
Linda Lee:

does anyone else remember 'Lancelot Link, Secret Chimp'? what a bizarre television show..

I watched that lancelot link show once or twice - crazy!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 5:02pm
solo mon:

why didnt p gabriel call this a "shockapella"
Avatar Swag For Life Member 5:02pm
Rich in Washington:

I DO remember Lancelot Link, LL, but don't think I ever watched it. This sounds weird, but my mom had this really weird phobia about monkeys/monkey people. I remember her expressly forbidding us to watch the Planet of the Apes movies. Something about it creeped her out to no end.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 5:03pm
Rich in Washington:

I also remember the talking chimp in the horrible saturday morning kid's show Ark II.
Avatar 5:04pm
Linda Lee:

understood completely, Rich. sort of an uncanny valley thing maybe.

Granny Spicy Tuna (they/them):

so excited i get to see Joanna Newsom perform in a few weeks!
Avatar 5:04pm
Linda Lee:

knowing, now, that entertainment producers weren't too kind to their animal charges at the time, i can only imagine the discomfort!
  5:05pm
Martinibomb:

Whaaa! Really? lover her voice
Avatar Swag For Life Member 5:05pm
DJ GeorgyGirl:

I have a weird semi-phobia of one of the Planet of the Apes movies .... My mum and I came back to the UK for a summer visit in 73 and the posters for the latest installment were all over the Tube. And one day there was a massive thunderstorm outside and the Tube broke down and we were stuck on it for an hour. I've never been able to watch that movie or look at the poster since

The LA Zoo used to be really terribly designed for monkeys. Nothing for them to do except sit on the concrete blocks in their pen. It was depressing.
Avatar 6:32pm

that's very depressing. i'd imagine they lose their minds.

They started redoing the enclosures in the 90s and it's much, much better now. But poor monkeys that lived there before then :(
