I'm looking for an old anime movie from the 80's - 90's,

... heh... the only thing I remember is one of the heroes had a staff he could make bigger when fighting,

Aaanyone know what movie I'm thinking about?

An extending staff
Im sure as an anime fan you've noticed
How common it is for the hero to use a staff

This could be any of the many , many, anime
Heroes modeled after the Monkey legend

How about
Goku Midnight Eye
