Since the dawn of time, humans have been philosophical creatures. Whether you think we were created by a higher being or were just lucky enough to be formed out of primordial ooze, every human being has at some point wondered "Why are we here?"

I'm not really a Gorilla Girl, but these are great. I thought I would only click on a few of your favs, but ended up looking at all of 'em. Highly entertaining, Guru.

I esp. like that Mob Gorilla Boss and the Ape God Cloud.

Who in the heck are Konga and Gorgo?

Konga I know, who's Gorgo?

And Zoot is stoned there. Look at his eyes, man.

Zoot does look a little weird, yeah. More like a bigfoot than a gorilla, if you ask me.

Konga was a grade-Z King Kong ripoff. A mad scientist turns a gorilla into a giant gorilla. Horrible, horrible movie. I remember seeing it when I was a kid.

Gorgo, on the other hand, was quite good. As far as giant monster movies with guys in rubber suits go, anyway. A fishing boat catches a 50 foot Godzilla-esque monster, and it's put on display in London. The scientists study the beast and realize that it's just a baby. Then Mama shows up, and boy is she pissed. I haven't seen it in years, but the scenes of the Mama doing her impression of Godzilla's Tokyo Stomp all over London and then leading her baby back to the sea have stuck with me. It's more of a B+ movie than a B movie, I'd say.

Oh yeah. Good point. Eh. Not like it's life-saving news or anything. Now, if it were about Buckaroo Banzai or something...
