Re: When Is Paste Pot Pete Gonna Get His Own Movie?

Whatever, Jonah. There's only one comic book movie I'm really excited for. And it's just from a comic book company's film development division; it hasn't actually been published yet.

Sammo Hung is negotiations to star in "War Monkeys," a horror comedy shaping up to be the biggest feature yet from the independent arm of Dark Horse Films.

...

The horror comedy follows two janitors who, during a Christmas holiday, get trapped in an underground research facility after accidentally unleashing military-trained Rhesus monkeys. Hung is one of the janitors who battles the rabid simians.

War Monkeys! Only one comic book adaptation could possibly be better than this:

Paul, you do know that there already is a movie and an amazing theme song with a CD associated with monkey vs robot, right?

Aw, Paul. Now I have the song stuck in my head. So do you. SO sing along:

"Monkey hate technology!
Robot hate the mon-key!
They will fight eternally!

MONKEY ... VERSUS .. RO-BOT!"

Perhaps, but it's definitely no Super Rocket Monkey
