The Olympics 08.08.08 http://www.bbc.co.uk/monkeyolympics

hes a king?
I like it! I like how they put in some of the parts thar actually are in the olympics! Wonder why I never saw this. Was this only shown in Asia? (china, india etc)
nice music nice nice nice nice
you mean monkey magic?
but yeah I totally see that
Actually. this style reminds me of an awesome cartoon named Samurai Jack. The mixture of art style and music was epic in that show as well.
looks likes the magic monkey
And at 1:27 Micheal Phelps comes in for the win.
More information should be found by Googling the story “Journey To The West”.

haha, good question. how bout “why is a monkey a king?”
you do know that the cloud.. originated from chinese tales and stories, not based on a cartoon that was made 10 years ago…
stupid idiot, we all know goku was based on the monkey king. In fact, the story came to japan way b4 that anime.
here are sum similarities:
staff
cloud
tail
looks like the guy that makes the gorillaz videos
I thought the sea dragon was meant to give monkey king his staff.
