Who remembers.....

Monkey, the eighties kung fu phenomenon that seemed to be my only reason for living as a child?

I've been thinking about looking for it on DVD recently to recapture my youth, has anyone any ideas where I could get this classic programme?

Here's a piccy to remind you all of the monkey man himself: -

never heard of said monkey

Monkey Magic! Bring on the cloud!

monkey magic, is it? you can buy that at dvdsoon.com, mech

I used to watch all those cheesy 'American Ninja' movies when I was little.

don't know it, so I dunno mech sorry

Must be a Brit thing.

probably..nvr hrd of it either

DEFINITELY not British! Japanese (though based on Chinese mythology...)

Must have been before my time.

Anyway I've seen this weird creature in HMV. Check Amazon.co.uk - they should have it.

don't know it,sry mech.and probably it's chinese.japanese don't have movie backgroud....as far as I know.

what do you mean fitch?

Mech, Have a look at the following URL
http://www.monkeyheaven.com/

It looks like the DVDs are being released on the third of february.

I mean japanese don't have many movies relesed.chinese have lots of movies....they even had many great actors and acting schools....
and btw I remember it.Saw it a while ago on HBO...

"japanese dont have many movies released" ?? well obviously the chinese have more, but has that got anything to do with this tv-show being japanese?

no mate.I was talking to ush,trying to explain him that it cannot be japanese.....

never saw it

Ok, Fitch, so the fact that it IS Japanese (and, incidentally, not a film) means little to you then, presumably?

I loved this programme as a kid, but I'm a little worried that it won't be as funny and interesting now I'm all grown up (Oh yeah really mature 🙄 ). The same type of thing happened when I got Danger Mouse on DVD last xmas, it was good and funny but nowhere near as good as it was when I was a nipper.

I'll probably buy the DVD's when they come out, that way I can get some old friends round for a day of Monkey Magic and beer consumption. Sweeeeeet. 😄
