For love or monkey!

Replace the word ‘Money’ in a movie title with ‘Monkey.’ Which movie is the most immediately improved?
I'm waffling between "Monkeyball" and "The Monkey Pit" myself.
(Yes, this is shamelessly stolen form a Twitter post, but meh, it's a different group here.)

One that's music rather than film, because of which forum this is:
That ain't workin'
that's the way you do it
Monkey for nothin' and your chicks for free

Microsoft Monkey (software)

so in other words...
SHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONKEY!

Nonono, that's "Love of Monkey is the Root of all Evil". As I believe we will all agree.

A fool and his monkey are soon parted.
Get your monkey's worth.
Put your monkey where your mouth is (... ew)
Take the monkey and run.
There are some things that monkey can't buy. For everything else, there's Mastercard.
We make monkey the old fashioned way: we earn it.
Monkey doesn't grow on trees.
Your monkey or your life!
Monkey can't buy you love (Beatles)
"It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it." - Aristotle
"Being told to be 'open minded' about something is usually a code for 'you're not going to like this, but I want to subject you to it anyway'. Conversely, being told that you are 'closed-minded' is generally a means of asserting that 'I don't like the fact that you're proving me wrong, so I will pretend that your failure to agree with my argument is a philosophical deficiency'." - RationalWiki

So what's all this moneying about then?
All around the Cobblers Bench the Money chased the weasel,
the money thought 'twas naught but fun then "POP" went the weasel.
Every one would like to be able to ride down the street in a great big car, and throw monkey to the massed Heathens
