The Planet of the Apes franchise has a long and storied history. From it's original films starring Charlton Heston to the Tim Burton reboot, to the modern trilogy directed by The Batman's Matt Reeves, The Planet of the Apes have seen several different iterations. Though the new trilogy including Rise of the Planet of the Apes, Dawn of the Planet of the Apes, and War for the Planet of the Apes seem to be overlooked in the scope of modern action franchises. Will Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes move the needle at all? Will Hollywood finally recognize this franchise for the masterpiece that it is?

I’m tired of so called “deadhead buffons” fakers like you for falsely making misinformation videos like your called “Adult Animation in the USA” Video you did several weeks ago when you don’t know BS about The animation Industry including calling some Adult animation shows “ugly” but you did a video on “Why Futurama is better than the Simpsons” video and then you pointless “Where our USA’s version of anime like Millennium Actress/Keep Your Hands Off Eizouken!” speech when NEVER DID a so-called anime Essay Video. For a guy Talking about Adult animation, and using a Arnold from Hey Arnold as it wallpaper/icon, YOU A FULL OF BS LIKE QAnon! If you going to make “truly” Video Essay, stop making LIES about animation Industry, you Kippe brain or the thousands of morons that watch that videos dont know 1 cent about anime or the American animation industry

Who is we? I love this franchise and Andy Serkis should have won a Oscar for his performance as Caesar and his overall work in motion capture!
Planet of the Apes was always a silly concept. Apes together strong is really one of the most cringey dialogues I have ever heard.
I feel like the modern remake is pretty heavy on the racism
The Planet of the Apes reboots are what all reboots should aspire to be. It was probably a hard sell to create completely new characters for this one, but Caesar is honestly one of the only truly iconic characters that has been created post 2010.
I'm not gonna lie
I love POTA
But don't like Disney
Nor do wanna support them financially
That's about it on my end
Great films tho
Disney was no where near as bad then as they are now.@@brandonfgx8498
a Caesar (different canon) was in the old films, but i get what you’re saying

Can't Agree More

I’d include the old sequels and the tv series in that statement too
IMO, War for The PoTA got robbed in the VFx Oscar category.
Yes, the previous movies were nominated, but I was hoping 3rd times the charm because the attention to detail from the face cracks to the fur was insane.
The latest trilogy is rated 82%, 91%, 94% respectively on Rotten Tomatoes. They are indeed very highly rated...
Maybe the lesson is: Not every great franchise needs to have rabid fans. Maybe it's best for a franchise to just carve it's own niche and not have a billion fans talking about them all the time. We've seen the damaged done to Star Wars and the MCU because of it. It gets to be successful and take it's time for each movie. 3 years between the reboot movies really makes you appreciate everything.
It not being too big and start to be tainted by greed is a good thing.
Agreed 100%. My favorite franchise is Evil Dead and all the films have been good (imo) exactly bc of what you said.
Fantastic take
Unfortunately, that doesn't usually work. Just look at what happened to Starship Troopers & Pacific Rim.
I agree with you, but unfortunately the laws of capitalism do not. Unless there are hoards of fans the movies you’re referring to won’t get made in the first place. It’s not a movie but a series, but just look at Andor. Possibly the greatest piece of Star Wars storytelling since the original Empire and its beloved by a loyal following of fans - but it doesn’t have mass appeal because frankly it came along too late. Most casual fans had given up on Star Wars by then. I think it’ll die too soon for that reason. We’ll see a S2, maybe a S3, but I’m willing to bet the story won’t be given a chance to unfurl as intended. It’ll be cut down too soon. All because the mass of rabid fans isn’t there.
Dawn of the Planet of the Apes is one of my favorite movies, period. Everyone talks about how Andy Serkis deserved award recognition but what about Toby Kebbel??
Koba is one of the best antagonists of this century.
He later went on to play Kong in Kong skull Island
Forget all that how the hell did they not get one single award for their visual affects like that alone is crazyyyyy.
Both times that I viewed Rise in theaters, when Caesar shouts "NO!" just like how the music dies off immediately, the air got sucked out of the room. I have never heard a theater so suddenly quiet... and it happened twice, followed by cheers when Caesar fought back. A great scene.
Totally It always gives me chills
On God I wish I'd been at a theater for it's premiere. But I found it a little later and absolutely it's still so good. The sign language being so integral really had me thinking that they wouldn't speak.
When caesar screams ‘’LEAVE HIM’’
And MALFOY gets messed up love it hahaha
Find it funny how filmmakers want us to support apes over our own kind, why we celebrating human traitor propaganda for some talking monkeys that don’t exist?
Serkis' Gollum is epic; but Ceasar is his magnum opus
Gollum is his magnum opus. Caesar is very good but Gollum made the second show watchable.
@@thebigpicture2032 i feel theres much more complexity to his performance of Ceasar
Throughout the trilogy u can see how he transforms from ape to "human" and the change is so sutil, I loved it! I don know how Kingdom is going to do without him, butbIm gonna watch it this weekend
I can’t think of a more consistent trilogy than this!
@@rhysalexander182Lord of the Rings?
@@_davidboxing Ah, I thought I was commenting on the main thread. I’m actually a rare hater of LOTR. Beautiful but boring!
The recent trilogy was amazing! My wife and I rewatched them all this week in preparation for the new one this weekend!
Same here
Also same,
We both teared up at the end of war 😢
Both of us are going tomorrow 1030am first showing!
Amazing!! I need to do a rewatch before I see the new one next week.
Mine hates them
New one sucke
Woody Harrelson did also one hell of a performance in the third movie. Really underrated villain role, he was solid and also poignant at some points
I think his monologue about the inevitability of human extinction prevents his character from becoming one note villain, despite still being a major douche in the movie
He gave me thanos vibes
@ joelinden1482 Thanos? Cmon man are we not all a but more cultured here? I think you maybe meant (unless you are too young to even know…) COLONEL KURTZ vibes. If you don’t know who and why I’m saying that.. you need to broaden your horizons. “War of the…etc” even has numerous easter eggs alluding to his character being heavily inspired by Kurtz. Not to mention to movie itself… *ape-ocalypse now* graffiti in the tunnels …. Couldn’t be more obvious lol.
I like Ceasar's initial "NO" in hindsight because it comes just after Malfoy gives the iconic line. It's almost like the movie was teeing up a boring reboot, and Ceasar was not having it. It's like he was saying to the audience. "You're not getting that kind of movie."
Most slept on sci Fi franchise
Agreed!
@@Nerdstalgic Stop telling people what to watch. That's where the problem started. We watching Asian content now.
@@suezcontours6653nga what?
@@suezcontours6653 What??
@@suezcontours6653what’s wrong with „Asian” movies?
Several reasons. 1) it’s not one of the existing “ too big to fail” corporate IPs. 2) you can’t see the majority of its stars as themselves, which brings the parasocial relationship with the actor aspect 3) it’s best works came before the era when we only followed films because they’re viral or seen as an “ event” from corporate marketing. The Reeves trilogy is some of the greatest studio work in decades, and some of the best work on the 2010s, but it was out when a lot of us were just kids who only watched cartoons. We like to pretend we’re very curious consumers, but as a people, we’re really not. We mostly give our money to the safe, sterilized options.
Are you planning to see the new "Apes" this weekend? I plan to see it with my mom tomorrow as a Mother's Day Gift.
It’s exactly just the reeves duology, the first movie isn’t directed by him.
I thought the movies were just OK. Decent enough to watch once in the theater but nothing more than a 7/10.
Matt Reeves should bring Michael Seresin to work in the sequel of The Batman
They did a great job working together in these movies
James chinlund also did a fantastic job with the sets in the reeves films.
This is my favorite modern franchise. I don’t even know why, but I’ve loved every one of these movies.
I had no idea this movie was even coming out until a week ago.
I'm so excited to see Kingdom!
I came in here to post exactly this
How? How did you not notice?
@@SubterrelProspector poor marketing I guess.
Ever since the release of kingdom, the trilogy has been getting a lot more love and rightfully so
I grew up watching the Simpsons and thought the original was a musical
He can talk! He can talk! He can talk!

Andy needs so many awards at this point. He's one of the most talented actors and gets shafted at award shows cause his work is still seen as non-standard.
CAESER IS TOP 5 CHARACTERS OF ALL TIME I DONT GIVE A FUUUUUUUUUUUCK
I enjoyed the ideas and the spectacle of the original series. In my opinion, the Caeser Trilogy is the best example of a Reimagining, which balances taking a fresh approach while using the most evocative imagery, musical cues, names, and themes from the original.
Also, I saw Kingdom otPotA yesterday; I think it's a worthy successor, and I hope this is the beginning of a new trilogy.
Apes. Together. Strong.
I love this trilogy and I just don't understand why they are so underappreciated.
I wonder the same thing. Maybe it just got lost in the mish mash of Star Wars and Marvel over the last 2 decades. Super unfortunate.
Some ideas as to why: the Mark Wahlberg version tarnished the brand. The CGI apes are a little uncanny valley. Watching talking apes for hours is kind of boring because they're not as relatable as human beings.
Intelligent and thought provoking Sci-fi is not the norm. Even though I am not a fan of the Apes franchise, I respect it.
Comic Book movies are not Sci-fi, Star Trek has been dumbed down, and Star Wars has become Disneyized. Thought provoking movies don't get a lot of praise today: 2001 - A Space Odyssey, Star Trek - the Motion Picture, both Blade Runners, Interstellar. The recent Dune movies are good, but much of the book is not in these adaptations. Ghost in the Shell was whitewashed because producers believe that Americans would not relate to philosophical Anime .. Need mindless action.
RedLetterMedia said it perfectly. Average movies do well, because most audiences are average. Until movies are decentralized and cheap, we are going to be stuck with average movies.
Allow me.
The first movie was embraced by what became the Alt Right, like the "Paul Kersey" guy who was running the "Stuff Black People Don't Like" blog. The movie assumed that intelligence was a measureable and immutable aspect of the physical brain. It also had a research head, who happened to be Black, very interested in changing the brain, to increase intelligence. Unstated, but noted by "Kersey" (and other alert watchers): Black intelligence.
The second movie, perhaps embarrassed at this fanbase, went and created an antigun parable.
Couldn't tell you about the third movie; I didn't bother with it.
Imo it’s because as well written and visually incredible as it is…there’s something about it that’s not super memorable. We have the moment where Caesar says “NO!” and the moment where Koba rides through flames on horseback with a machine gun and then…that’s kinda it. The score is…fine. It’s not a story you can really market to kids or families. It’s not an epic with big moments like the MCU or LOTR. The original movie was decades ago so the novelty and newness has worn off.
POTA is a quiet, contemplative, confident, and character driven trilogy. Without the incredible CGI, Im unsure if this trilogy would stay in the zeitgeist as long as it has.

Nah fr😂😂
The movies are OK at best.

"some of the best film making of the last fifteen years".
Films were all horrible before 2009. Your attempt at a compliment to the film series is no compliment at all!
There have been some amazing films in the last 15 years so the compliment stands. I don't know what you mean.@@user-rg7uh9se4c
War for the planet of the apes is a masterpiece
Can't Agree More.
Every single one is a masterpiece, including Kingdom.
@@AB3L30NE AGREED
Indeed, a pure chef d'œuvre.
Just watched the kingdom and we got another solid franchise starter - hope it grows into more movies, excited where the story gets us and I think it’s the best bait to make people want to watch the reboot trilogy (which is a pure gem)
Win on win on win
I can't wait to see it!
Its apart of the other three movies. So its not a franchise starter per say
I think the lesson here is that not all movies need to make 800+ million dollars. You can still make great movies that are more niche and turn a profit.
Before The Batman Matt Reeves know for Plant of the apes trilogy 🌟💫
The direction, story, execution, theme, VFX, Cinematography & sound design are great. ✨🫡📽️🏆🌟
Excited for Kingdom Of The Plant Of The Aape
Super excited for Kingdom!
I recently watched the latest trilogy on Hulu a few weeks ago and felt like I had missed out. I was absolutely blown away with how amazing they are!! I was telling everyone that they needed to see them
Are the modern Apes films underrated? Yes, but there is a beauty to that. I wouldn't want this franchise whored out & cannibalizing itself like Star Wars, Marvel, Transformers, or Modern Star Trek. There's beauty in a series of consistantly good/great films that speaks for itself.
This. So much this.
It’s actually refreshing that they even took time to realise these movies instead of banging them out one after another I hate when franchises do that except for Harry Potter who had to do that due to the child actors.
It should also be noted that POTA is completely different from any of those franchises. It’s a pre/post apocalyptic trilogy with very few grand action sequences. In its current state, it can’t be treated like a Marvel or Star Trek movie because the stories are so self-contained and its world is so small. The POTA knows what it is and doesn’t strive to be any grander. It’s got that simplistic, down to earth beauty about it.
I enjoy seeing all the love this new trilogy is getting recently. I havent been much of a movie guy as an adult, but ive seen this trilogy many times. Cesar and koba are two of my favorite characters ever.
Some friends and I watched through every PotA movie a couple years back. Despite seeing low review scores for Escape, Conquest, Battle, and the 2001 film, I actually really enjoyed all of them. Other than Beneath which was just a mess, I thought they all had interesting narratives and they all felt unique within the franchise. I was most surprised by how much I loved Planet of the Apes 2001. Everyone dunks on it, but I was fascinated with how it took more inspiration from the Pierre Boulle novel than the original series of films. Plus I loved the music, and those practical effects are hard to beat.
I loved beneath only because I had no clue where the movie was going next lmao
i agree 100%
same
I re-watched the reboot trilogy last year and I think it still stands as an incredible cinematic achievement, creatively and technically.
The story and characterisation still give me chills. The cinematography and overall design is so beautiful. And it's a textbook example of how great CG animation can look if it's respected rather than beaten into submission. It was an astounding achievement by the team at Weta.
I do wonder if part of the reason for it's retreat out of the spotlight is due to the recent media and public beatup of cg animation.
Tim Roth is a great actor
Every role he takes, he crushes.
They need to make it a musical.
Criminally underrated in all aspects
This is why I subscribe, I learned so much in this video, and now have a new appreciation for something I've already treasured.
I only speak for myself, but for me, there's something eerie about apes' eyes, about how much they resemble human eyes. That's the main reason I haven't watched any of the recent trilogy of movies, even though I've only heard great things about each of them.
Never forget how talented of an actor Andy Circus is. He will forever be the bridge between the human and the digital. No one comes close as an so iconic.
I'd expect A.I. to want to speak to Andy Circus first.
And don't forget Andy Serkis, he's pretty good too.
In a landscape dominated by superheroes, robots and explosions, a movie about a monkey rebellion just seems a bit tame. Plus the fact that the idea/IP seems quite retro or vintage, something that younger audiences don’t care about, just like Indiana Jones. My 2 cents, I still enjoy the reboots
I'd argue superhero movies have come out so often that we are so desensitized to them...they come out way too often...I remember getting maybe 1 super hero movie a year in the early 2000s compared to like two or 3 a year today. As for robots, boring. Also, dawn and war had a bunch of explosions
I’ve never seen the originals. I’m 24 now and was in middle school when I first saw Rise. Absolutely love the reboots
Just finished the trilogy and I’m captivated by the storytelling of the movie, the premise, the characters, the soundtrack and the visuals.
Can’t wait to watch the new movie!
I literally just started watching this reboot trilogy ahead of the next film. I always loved the premise and idea of this movie but when they first came out I couldn't get into them. I was a fan of the Tim Burton remake and I still haven't watched the original movies but I liked the quirkiness, practical makeup, and other things mentioned that give it the vibe it is and I think that definitely threw me off with this reboot as well. I knew I would like these movies eventually because its right up my alley being a sci fi/action/thriller/ with some social commentary and thought put into it. Im currently in the middle of War for the Planet of the Apes and I have to say the Cgi was so much better so im excited to see how this new one looks with all the advancements in movie making. This video captured some of my thoughts because as im watching im wondering why this isn't as popular as it should be.
THe title of this video I've been wondering for awhile. Even today i saw a video posting top 10 trilogies and these movies weren't even there. This is a solid trilogy. Even Original Star Wars Trilogy slowed down with Return of the Jedi. So did Back to the Future. I think just Lord of the Rings and these Apes movies stayed solid all through out.
Yeah I don't know why this trilogy doesn't get the praise it deserves. By far one of my favorite movie trilogies ever.
Great vid
Nicely done and well said. I think yours is the best made point out there. Great work
I've been a Planet of the Apes fan ever since I first found out about the movie, which was when i was 13. As much as i do agree that this franchise is heavily underrated, I also do believe its bitter sweet in a sense. It’s sad to know that they’re not known or loved as much as they should be, but also, I’ve realised how dangerous it can be once put into limelight. There isn’t a single franchise that has been tremendously popular that hasn’t gone downhill due to the pressure to now cater to a larger audience, MCU being a prime example. I love these movies to much and would hate to see these crumble under pressure but at the same time, they ought to be up there with the greats. I'd love to know what you guys think though, Wes Ball did a brilliant job with Kingdom Of The Planet of the Apes! I cannot wait for more.
I'm definitely in the OG5 camp. I didn't like that in Rise, the apes gained speech and sentience via a chemical. In Conquest, only Caesar was born with intelligence. But he still managed to organize their revolt, because through years of mistreatment, they had it in them anyway.
For that reason, I never gave Dawn and War a chance. I need to fix that someday.
if you have max, watch dawn.
headphones on, lights low.
i watched rise and that it was ok. however, dawn is significantly better
The biggest problem is that the majority of the characters ( especially humans) are either uninteresting or getting killed off/replaced between movies as a result you can’t connect to the story because they constantly move forward and go to different stories also there’s not enough action or big moments
The Focus of the first Trilogie was cesaer.
So your suposedto connect to him
Also Maurice and Koba
@@pascalfernandes6957You can connect with him and Maurice and…who else? Blue Eyes had great character development and spotlight in Dawn but then he dies in the beginning of War. The characters with good side arcs die by the next movie (Will and Charles, Malcolm and Blue Eyes). Maurice and Rocket don’t have character arcs and they’re the only ones from Rise who survive to the end of War. 😬
Finally some recognition!!! I love these movies and I can't wait to see the newest iteration!
just got out of theaters from kingdom and i gotta say im really excited to see where they go with this new trilogy
I offered you friendship and you spat in my face
Nailed it!
I just recently got into this series and I'm so shocked I didn't really hear anyone talk about these! I love all the movies ive seen from this
I’ve never seen any of the POTA movies. The only bit of material I’ve ever watched was that one scene at the end of space balls where the apes show up lol. Just yesterday I watched the 1st movie (with James Franco and Andy Serkis). Always been a huge fan of Serkis. loved his live animation portrayal of Gollum so I came into this movie with an open mind and excitement. I was BLOWN AWAY. I loved Caesar so much. I was thinking about the movie nonstop. Finally the next night I throw on the 2nd movie (2014) and was so surprised how damn good these movies were and really nobody talked about them. I still have 2 more left to watch and I can’t wait. They are damn good. Wasn’t expecting to care so much about monkeys who hate humans. God damn these movies are awesome
God-tier franchise.
It's a remake that nobody asked for, like almost every film that is coming out these days. I liked the 2000s version of Planet of the Apes as well as it's sequel. While that in itself was a remake, it was more necessary back then as technology and special effects had evolved significantly since the original version of the film. Much less has changed in film between the 2000s and now to warrant another remake. The only reason it's being done is because the dominant thinking in Hollywood right now is that remakes and sequels are always a safe bet.
Excellent summary thank you
25 year old here. I was brought into the apes world when I saw the trailer for rise and thought it looked like a really cool movie premise. My mom of course knew that it was a reboot/prequel. So she helped me buy and watch the original movies which I enjoyed even though they were obviously outdated by the time I watched them. But I loved them. And then I watched the Caesar trilogy and loved them even more. Just watched kingdom on Mother’s Day with mom. We both enjoyed it. I think many people love the apes franchise. It just doesn’t get the same media buzz as other franchises
AVI ARAD will ruin Wes Ball's LEGEND OF ZELDA
The same way he ruined TASM2 and MORBIUS
Great video! Thanks for not really spoiling anything either!
I absolutely adore both. The original 5 films (the first 4 in particular) I genuinely adore. They are amazing examples of what science fiction should be... an examination of us. Conquest, in particular, still hits hard, and the actor playing Caesar gives the best performance of his long and impressive career. I will never write off the original movies. Ever.
The Apes movies are good, very, very good but, they don’t capture the imagination the way the MCU, Star Wars, or Star Trek do. In these latter franchises the creators created worlds that people want to go back to. The world of The Apes is kind of uncomfortable. It’s gritty and run down and a place people don’t really want to go to.
Me seeing the thumbnail: OH I APPRECIATE IT !!!
ngl this is one of my favourite franchises. I already liked the originals (never read the book tho), but Andy Serkis just turned an already awesome thing into a masterpiece
love these movies. - great video!

Just got into the Apes series and couldn’t stop watching. One of the best films I’ve seen in decades.
Great video and great point. Incredible movies.
Love this series as whole, I grew up with the last trilogy so I resonate with those films more, but I watched the original 5 only a few years ago and can say this series is in my top 10 film franchises, I also love the Tim Burton film, just watched the newest film at a early screening, each film just feels like they were made with passion, even if they are flawed.
I love both series. I'm going to see Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes tomorrow. Beyond stoked.
War for the Planet of the Apes is firmly in my top 10 greatest movies of all time. It was a thematic masterpiece and that trilogy is something I share with every friend and even got my spouse into them (someone who typically doesn't appreciate scifi). I watched kingdom on opening weekend and I was worried it wouldn't stand up in quality considering Wes Balls only other films were the terrible Maze Runners but it definitely stands up to the original 3 and I would put it on the same level as Rise. I'm excited for the new Noah trilogy.
Genuinely underrated and the new films are one of the best films I’ve seen.
I guess I’m one of the rare birds who enjoy both series, saw Kingdom last night and it was really good! Hopefully we do get more, it did a good job of setting up the world after Caesar
I only seen the original movies recently and was surprised that the first came out in '68, my parents were 15 that year. I thought they had come out way later because they held up pretty well. The '01 reboot was good to me despite the flaws. The '14 reboot and the sequels were pretty enjoyable.
Just saw Dawn and War, amazing!! So intense, gripping, with great characters!
We loved the recent trilogy (and can’t wait to see Kingdom). It has an almost Asimovian/Foundation feel with events taking place over decades and a Star Wars III/Halo Reach vibe in knowing how the tragedy ends.
The reference to Battlestar Galactica is a good one. The reboot PotA series feels more like a “reimagining” the same way Moore’s BSG took the ideas of the ‘70s show and retooled them into a less campy iteration.
Good video man keep it up i have watched the show again from 1 3 after couple years one of the best movie series of all time i wish kingdom is good
Great Video Nerdstalgic!
Glad you enjoyed it
I grew up absolutely loving going to the movie theatre’s!
Crazy to me that it’s been 7 YEARS since the last Planet of the Apes movie. 😬
One out of maybe 4 movies I actually went out to watch in the last 7 years. 😅
I mean I got a really good projector, but some movies are meant to see in theatre’s.
All the studios are pushing for that “only in theatre’s”/ and “must see on the big screen!”.
Damn right when it comes to (not just) Top Gun 2.. but KotPotA movie, I will see theatrically. 🙌
I love Rise, Dawn and War so much. It’s one of my favorite trilogies of all time and Caesar is one of my favorite characters in all of media.
I didn’t know it was a reboot series until my mom told me but they are all great movies and honestly some of my favorite movies to this day and I can’t wait for this upcoming one
10:28 rewrites, reboots, and different timelines work for comics. It works for Superhero movies, too. It would be nice if it could work for other things too.
The new Planet of the Apes was good. Go see it in theaters. Worth it.
Conquest will always be my favorite. It’s very close to my heart, and it came out 20 years before I was born
I'm one of those apparently rare fans of both the classic movies and the reboot ones. I just love the whole concept of the Planet of the Apes, I find it fascinating. The classic movies are great for their time, but kinda corny at times. The new ones however are just pure cinema. I wish they were more beloved. Need me an ApeCon to attend, dammit!
I had a friend who I talk about film a lot with recently mention that she's never seen ANY of the Planet of the Apes movies. I nearly started sobbing. Both as someone who thinks Dawn is one of the best works in the history of cinema and as someone who adores this entire franchise, i was BAFFLED. And the release of Kingdom has only made more of these people come out of the cracks. I wish I was still living blissfully in my fantasy world where everyone adores this franchise
I was pleasantly surprised by Kingdom, I saw it today. And it left it open for a direct sequel that could lead to at least two more movies.
I watched them back in the 70's and have watched all the new one's as well. Love em all!
Just watched them all at once and I cant believe Ive waited so long to finally watch these films. They were fantastic
YES! I watched all these movies as they came out, all throughout my teens, and I never appreciated them. But, in preparation for the new movie, I marathoned them all, and DAMN! I think Dawn might be in the top 20 movies of all time. That Trilogy slapped so HARD! The new one was ok, kinda on par with the first for me, but that just means it might be setting up for another masterpiece. Can officially say now I am a planet of the Apes fan.
ive only ever seen the first one of the new reboots but theyre all on Dplus so ill watch em now
I always wonder how the story goes well. I only watched the recap of the 3 movies. and I got shocked that this was a reboot. such a good movie..
Great video.
Been watching the Reboot trilogy with my wife since she’s never seen them. Before we go see Kingdom. And man I gotta say these movies are still masterpieces. Just finished Dawn yesterday. This Trilogy is one of those very Rare ones where each more is as good of not better then the previous. And yes it is rare. Almost every trilogy has a weak 3rd movie. But man the Apes is not one of them. What a masterpiece.
I'm a fan of the very first Planet of the Apes from the original five (no one can match Charlton Heston ngl) and of the Reeves trilogy. Looking forward to the next take on this unique story :)
I'm watching that right now. New movie tomorrow. I appreciate it. I love these films and I am excited about tomorrow.
Just finished all the of the new trilogy movies. And i got to say, this trilogy is in my top 3 favorite trilogies of all time. Some people found the first movie slow, but tbh i found it really interesting. Idk though, i just like it a lot.
the novel is good, probably a little dated given its time, but the final twist, although different, is very good. The author, Pierre Boulle, has written several important novels, notably The Bridge of the River Kwai and also" Desperate Games," which I recommend.
Tuh…I love all of em. Even the oldies. Especially the oldies 😭
55+ years or so of remakes/sequels is s pretty good run. Almost as much as the James Bond films. My favorite POTA film will always be the original 1968 version but I'm 66 years old so that makes sense for me. I do like the new set of remakes and have watched all of them. I'll watch new film eventually. CGI can be a bit distracting at times but as a sci-fi fan I love what they can do with it. The acting in the original was a big part of the success. I don't feel that will ever be surpassed but the new remakes are better than many of the in-between films.
It's awesome to see the franchise span so many generations. They may have different tones, but the fact the franchise has been around for 60 years is insane.

I do neuromuscular massage therapy. And I've been talking about this with all of my clients recently. The most underrated movies of the past decade for sure. I've had tickets for the new movie for like a month now I'm so stoked.
