The Forbidden Kingdom/Headscratchers: Difference between revisions

 

* So, the Monkey King. Why is he Cu Chulainn? So he doesn't have the chariot, and he doesn't go really berserk (although he sort of incidentally beats up everybody iirc), but into this more or less Asian cast you drop a guy who looks white(ish) because of the makeup, obviously loves the whole fighting thing, etc. Admittedly I didn't watch the movie for the plot and had to go look up the synopsis to find the character name... but I'm still a little muddled on the whole thing.

** The Monkey King is a [[Trickster Archetype]]. So, to some extent, is Cu Chulainn. They tend towards similarities the world over.
