# Visually it's really good
The music wasn't to my taste really, but then I'm not very open-minded when it comes to music.

Animation and acrobatics and the fighting scenes were excellent but the story takes a while to get going.

# Philistine!
I saw Monkey in Manc on Sunday, saw the BBC Doc last night, It's Jaw Droppingly Amazing! I've never seen or heard ANYTHING like it! Hewlett's Design & Albarn's music work perfectly, go see it in Paris next month!!! :D

"The main villain, known as Zoltar in BotP, had an unusual background due to the hermaphroditic nature of the original Berg Katse character. In an episode where Katse's female half was featured (BotP title: "The Galaxy Girls"), "she" was introduced as a separate character, Zoltar's sister, for BotP. (A hint of "her" actual nature was retained in the name "she" used when masquerading as a human, "Mala Latroz"—an anagram of "Zoltar.")"

The local pub cartoonist has a monkey mask he found at the opp shop and regularly puts the line "Tripitaka! You poofter!" in his comic strip that is published in a street press magazine in Melbourne each week. Photo of said cartoonist with a monkey mask here:
