Good on him for getting his life back in form, as someone who recently broke through from a decade of mental health issues myself I have respect for anyone who keeps on pushing through those tough times and finds the light at the end of the tunnel, hope anyone else who's in a similar situation can break through into a better era as well even with how difficult it is.

I'm just happy Brendan Fraser is back on top, and the Oscars are finally giving him respect. But Monkeybone is that much of a bizarre fever dream that the cast admitted how hellish the production is as much as Downtown. Fraser admitted this with this interview quote: "-it felt like they put us in a mental asylum! We went nutty and made a movie." I remember that the most rather than the whole movie in spite of it's surrealist nature and humor I really like, akin to your usual internet black comedy.

It was in the rotation of things we played on car rides in my dad’s Chevy Astro. I’d wondered, considering how big a name Brendan Fraser was, why it felt like only my family knew what the hell this movie was. Great video!

Monkeybone would've worked better had they leaned into the Who Framed Roger Rabbit/Cool World/Looney Tunes: Back In Action angle. In other words, have the Monkeybone(the cartoon monkey) be a 2D animated character. Plotwise, it'd make a bit more sense, and that's coming from a HUGE fan of stop motion animation.

I paused this video to go watch the movie and I loved it because it’s absolutely insane. Also the best guess I’ve got for Steven King being there is that it’s supposed to be a reference to when he was doing so many drugs in the 80s that he didn’t remember writing Cujo. Cause in the movie Hypnos says that King was in the prison for trying to steal an exit ticket 25 years ago and later King says that Cujo used the ticket.

I chanced upon this movie around 2006-2008, completely unaware of its existence. I saw Brendan's face while changing channels, I didn't recognize the movie so I decided to watch it. I found it meh, but it got me to laugh a few times so that's something. I definitely didn't need to be reminded of the teacher scene. That's the kind of thing that makes you wish Men in Black with their memory wipes were real.

Omg Monkey Bone… I saw this film one time when I was 16 around 2015 when I went to an RTC (Residential Treatment Center). I had no idea what movie was being played since I usually read books all the time there, and the staff let us pick what movie to watch. I guess everyone picked THAT and I honestly will never know why. I thought they replaced my seroquel with acid or some shit. I wondered for a year after leaving if that movie was real or if I had some f*cked up dream. I completely forgot of its existence until now. Thanks for bringing back those memories lmao.

Rose McGowan (Kitty the catgirl) has gone on record saying 20th Century Fox "fired the director, a true artist, Henry Selick 1/2 the way through filming" saying the suits at the studio didn't trust his true vision. she also claimed they "changed the name [of the limbo] to 'Downtown' because they were scared African Americans would be upset by a psychedelic underground acid trip of a world with a CAT for a waitress named Dark Town" (the original comic this was based on - yes, this is a COMIC BOOK ADAPTATION - was titled DARK TOWN) the sad fact is that you can easily look up what Selick's original look of the film was a straight up stop-motion of the exact style of the comic, which was muddied by the studios. so not only did the studio NOT want him making his own movie, but they didn't even trust him to make the movie THEY pushed for. im glad Selick himself is more chill and laidback about the experience and does have genuinely great insight into the movie's creation. (brilliant video, Monkeybone is a certified CULT CLASSIC)

Apparently, this was originally going to be R-rated and star Nicolas Cage, and it was based off of Dark Town. JaMeS BaKeR has a post about his work on this film on his blog. Rose McGowan confirmed that the movie would have ended up better had Fox not fired Henry Selick about halfway through. The suits must have gotten cold feet. Henry Selick summed up Monkeybone as "“I have two thoughts: it never would have been a big hit. It certainly would have done better if they advertised it a little… I would still like to do a Director’s Cut because there’s a lot of cool stuff that was removed… my main lesson learned is, I don’t really do well in the live-action universe… I love my world of stop-motion… I went down a slippery slope to make Monkeybone, but the film that came out it’s not my vision of what the film could’ve been, and I just don’t thrive in that.”

The downtown characters look the way they do b/c they are figments of Stu's past emotional memories. The cyclops from a movie shocked him as a kid and he's in Stu's limbo, etc. Also, they want to keep Stu in a coma b/c his nightmares are specifically great and they want to milk him for all he's worth.

Before I even tap play, I did actually watch this one... like, a lot. When I was a kid I had an uncle who got cancer and we visited him a lot while he was sick. Whenever I was over there, this was playing on the TV. If my family stayed a weekend at my uncles then this movie was playing from the moment someone woke up until we all went to bed, and it got to the point where this weird ass movie became regular background noise to me. Anyway, I think that's why I'm so fucked up now. RIP Uncle Cecil, I miss you and I really wanna ask you which one of your fuckin' kids liked that movie so much. It's bugged the piss outta me for 2 decades, now, and nobody on that side of the family fuckin' talks to me anymore!

Saw this movie just once after I read about in some rando magazine and untill this day I think about it at least once a month. I can't believe I remember it so well.

8:11 what an odd character, a yellow and blue cat woman with an Ankh on her head. This movie actually predates Animal Crossing for the GameCube by two months, which is the title the infamous Ankha debuted in. Granted, she's called 'Nile' in Japanese. It's just very bizarre.

Similar to you, I had a copy of this movie when I was a kid. I rewatched it recently and was surprised that I really liked it. Although I do have to agree with your criticism. I didn't find Monkeybone to be as annoying as other people did, but his horndog scenes did make me hope the next scene would come soon. Something I did come to think as I was watching this video is that it seems like the story may have been cut down for time. For me, the sister wanting to pull the plug and the romance with Kitty were cut short. In watching the movie, I felt that it was implied that the sister wanted Stu to die so she could inherit the Monkeybone strip and monetize it. Perhaps it was meant to be that way, but they had to change it for movie length. In regards to Kitty, I felt that she was supposed to be Julie's figment like how Monkeybone is Stu's figment. I was confused why a romance was sparking between them when the point is that Stu loves Julie and is trying to get back to her. Finally, I felt that Hypnos and Downtown were itching for another hit rather than that they would starve. Perhaps I misheard what Hypnos said in that scene. But even if that is what he said, I feel that the nightmares as a drug is a better explanation. The movie explains that Stu used to have bad dreams until he went to the sleep study. That resulted in Monkeybone separating out of Stu's mind via his art. So, to presume, that means Monkeybone was causing Stu's bad dreams but ended up in Downtown when he was ejected. There Monkeybone can't cause the bad dreams. So Hypnos and Downtown, "needing a fix" cut the middleman out and sent Monkeybone to the living world. Hopefully that made sense. Although it's possible I put more thought into the lore of the movie was necessary.

i watched this back when I was a kid on my country's national TV and I fell in love immediately, I don't like crazy movies but there was something about this one that just caught my attention from the very moment he arrived at Downtown. I think it had to do with its wacky story, I will give it a watch again sometime soon, between this and George of the Jungle I grew up thinking Brendan was a great actor and he definitely is. So sad it bombed, I don't think it deserved to be such a failure at the box office. P. S. The part where one dude gets crazy and takes his clothes off because he got nightmare gas straight on his face traumatized me as a kid tbh, they show him naked at the end too and I guess nudity was disturbing to me lol.
