The first two are really drat good and I'm surprised the series never got super huge. I mean they do well but no one seems to talk about them.

drat this was good. Hot, hot drat. I rewatched the other two recently and I'm really struggling to think of a better Hollywood trilogy from the last decade.

BiggerBoat posted:Batman? At the very least they stand tall next to each other. I'd actually say Apes is more consistent across its three films though. I really loved the subtle revelation that all apes across the planet were affected by the virus spreading in the same way as Caesar's tribe. The other two don't definitively say whether it was only the apes that were directly infected/gassed (and their offspring) that gained intelligence. jopo posted:Was I the only one who thought when the northern army showed up and were all completely masked that they were going to take them off and be apes? The first Apes movie I saw was Tim Burtons so maybe it just brain damaged me enough to expect a big dumb twist No but I really expected the dead soldiers to be apes when they ripped their masks off. stev fucked around with this message at 08:17 on Jul 26, 2017 |

Edgar Allen Ho posted:As a jew, I'm pretty surprised at how people see Caesar as christ and not Moses. I mean sure he gets crucified but his whole story in this film is a direct Moses analogue, especially his death and the scene where he confronts the camp guards. Then of course, if you still can't see the apes-as-jews metaphor, half of it takes place in a concentration camp complete with gorilla kapos and ss troopers. He's 100% Moses but there's some Christ allegories too.

Ammanas posted:The first Reeves movie was fun but flawed, the last 2 have taken themselves way too seriously and underplayed their premise. Reeves only did the last two.

Yeah he'll definitely be back, no way was he in the 99.99% of humanity that died in the plague.
