New movie: Planet of the Apes
DaOld Man:
Wasnt Dr Xauis an orangutan?
RayB:
Yes.
They had different "races" evolved from orangutan, gorillas... but if memory serves me right, chimps were still primitive.
If the new movie were to go for scientific accuracy, the evolved "monkeys" would be bonobo apes. There's a fascinating TED talk about them here, with one of them playing a pretty good game of Ms Pac Man!

I was in response to the first line of the post:

Anyway, I can see where the confusion would come in since Mike later talks about Chimps. :cheers:
Also, I think it is about time to whip out the Planet of the apes musical, this thread wouldn't be complete without it:
Simpsons-Planet of the apes Musical

Haha my bad Vigo! :cheers:
Very nice! I would have done that a long time ago, but, as you all know, my work filter is derived from some Gestapo software the Nazis developed in the 40's. I cant see anything! :angry:
