Rise, Dawn, and War were somewhat underrated or at least under discussed? My memory could be fuzzy about that response. It took me a little while to catch up and see War but it'd be worth going back and watching all 3. Wes Ball did the Maze Runner trilogy and if you're in to your Young Adult stuff those were just barely watchable. Barely. Aesthetically and tonally it seems like an Apes film could be a good fit.

Yeah, I thought those films were really quite good overall; thoughtful without being overwrought or silly. They did pretty well at the box office and were critically acclaimed but never really seemed to enter the cultural mainstream.

I just watched the first 3 movies over the last week for the first time. Pretty incredible experience and worth watching if you have even a passing interest.

Falconer Ape is Ceaser's son from the prior trilogy and will be the "main" character. The trilogy had no right to be as good as it was, and I enjoyed it immensely. Same director isnt back, but WETA is still doing the CGI and it looks great.

Those are some nice looking post-apocalypse looking sets. Although if this is Caeser’s son, it can’t be that long after War for Planet of the Apes even though shit looks like it has been abandoned for over a century. That means there would still be apes that remember the pre-fall world and it wouldn’t be a heretical myth like in the old movies yet

i can't get into these new planet of the ape movies. the point of the origional was that man nuked the world. and these asshole apes stepped up and filled the role of primary resident of earth. Did they really need to make a dozen movies about how special apes escaped and chimped out?

They have the same hubris thing at their core, although the modern remakes at least make more sense in why humans became dumb and apes became smart

Freya Allen is way hotter as a brunette.

It could also be the slightly dirty smudged kink I apparently picked up after watching The 100 though too. God damn if every girl in that show wasn't smoking hot, and even hotter with a little dirt.

this is now out on the usual places.

Debating whether to watch it tonight or wait for a lossless Atmos blu-ray. The streaming version Furisoa soundtrack was so limp-wristed compared to the audio assault of the Fury Road bluray that I'm beginning to think it's worth waiting.

40 minutes in and this is rubbish. Nothing like the plot implied by the trailer

This is the worst of the series for sure, but it was still better than 95% of the rubbish released these days.

Thanks for your stellar review chief. 47 minutes in and it's terrible. Just apes speaking like 5 year olds to each other

There was something wrong with version I downloaded as halfway through it kept freezing up, tried on multiple devices. Thank fuck for that, zero desire to download a different copy
