Is the planet finally of the apes yet? This is like when it took Lara Croft three reboot games to become the Tomb Raider.

By the end of the last one they learned that apes unrelated to the original escape were also smart and how humans were losing their ability to reason and speak. So it was pretty well set up as finally a Planet of the Apes.

When it was originally announced two years ago the director said that it is set in the same universe as the previous trilogy.

Having another actual Planet of the Apes remake (especially after Burton's shitsterpiece) would be redundant since there would be no twist, and nobody wants the focus to be on some humans.

What made these films succeed is that none of the humans ever stole the limelight off the apes, to the point that no human ever reprised their role in a sequel.

Compare that to the Mummy, where you came for the Mummy, only to get two hours of Tm Cruise on an ego-trip.

Oh hell yes. The Apes trilogy (?) is low-key one of the best movies series of the past decade.

For real, though, yes. Credit to Rupert Wyatt for Rise, because if someone explained the “No!” scene without context it would sound absolutely ridiculous, but in context it’s incredible.

Then the Reeves sequels slap the whole time. Those movies deserve way more credit.

I'll be shocked if they don't include some form of joke where he talks in his normal high pitched italian accented voice for a line or two, and then he clears his throat, and then you hear normal Chris Pratt voice.
