  • Too little love is shown for the Planet of the Apes Reboot Trilogy. The incredible performances, the spectacular direction, the benchmark special effects, the emotionally rich and complex characters. These films remain as the pinnacle of franchise film making. Rise, Dawn, and War make up my favorite trilogy of all time. And since there’s not a lot of love for this trilogy in this format, I suppose I need to answer the call.
    “Planet of the Apes: The Perfect Trilogy” will be a 3-part series dedicated to exploring the people, production, and themes of the Planet of the Apes Trilogy. Starting with “The Triumph of Rise,” then “The Tragedy of Dawn,” and concluding with “The Beauty of War,” each video will be a deep dive into one of the films - their characters, symbols, craftsmanship, and psychology. If nothing else, I just want to explain my love for one of my favorite stories ever told.
    From the creators of Caesar, Rick Jaffa and Amanda Silver, to the emotionally driven storyteller, Matt Reeves, this series will highlight the passionate artists who gave this studio blockbuster a heart and soul seen too rarely in most modern productions. And it will seek to understand where that heart lies and why these films remain so emotionally impactful and relevant today.
    I hope you’re as excited to watch these videos as I am to make them.

    War always held a special place in my heart because I always saw it as the apes version of a biblical story. it was their old testament.

    • @StoryStreet
      @StoryStreet  3 роки тому +77

      Definitely has that mythic element. In fact, Matt Reeves himself has described it as the story of how Caesar became the apes' version of Moses delivering them to the promised land. The religious parallels are a very interesting part of the film for sure, one I'll at least have to note.

      Ya. I've always thought the same about the Moses parallels. The whole series is this fantastic take on the ape mythology from the originals.
      "Humans took primitive apes as pets... Apes were quartered in cages, but they lived and moved freely in human homes. They became responsive to human speech... They became alert to the concept of slavery. And as their numbers grew, to slavery's antidote which, of course, is unity. At first, they began assembling in small groups. They learned the art of corporate and militant action. They learned to refuse. At first, they just grunted their refusal. But then, on an historic day, which is commemorated by my species and fully documented in the sacred scrolls, there came [Caesar]. He did not grunt. He articulated. He spoke a word, a word which had been spoken to him time and again without number by humans. He said: "No"."

    Before seeing these, I thought I knew what a great trilogy was. But I was wrong. I saw Rise in 2012 in my Biology class, and not a single student was on their IPhone 3GS at the time. Then I saw Dawn in the theaters, and I left mind blown. I thought that’s it after this, that War would be an average third movie of the series, but would have good tie-ins to the original movie. BUT I WAS DEAD WRONG. Perfect Trilogy doesn’t even come close to what I think of this one. These are movies that not only respected the original movie, but expands upon its original source material, and in my honest opinion, can call this the definitive prequel trilogy to the original. While me discovering behind the scenes of Godzilla movies have been my introduction to the art of filmmaking, This trilogy is what cemented my passion of film and storytelling altogether.

    I really cannot recall the amount of times I get a discerning look from a film snob when I say, "And the best film trilogy for me is the new Planet of the Apes one". Even though it's by the WETA production team and LotR sits on top of many film lists. This superior Apes trilogy, not constrained by adapting any books, is looked down upon. Thank you so much for undertaking this perfect trilogy!

Your video is so well done and inspiring and it really does a good job of diving deep into the meanings, emotions and storytelling in the movie. I am so excited for the rest and I hope to see more soon! You have done an amazing job so far and I have so much respect for your storytelling and analysis in this video. I left the same comment on your actual video just thought I might have a better chance of you seeing it on this one. Seriously, good job :)

    Hey Story, I’ve rewatched your first video for “The Triumph of Rise” and I still love it, but I’ve noticed you’ve had a hard time posting within the last year. I’m not sure what it is, but I’m really looking forward to “The tragedy of Dawn” and “The Beauty of War.” Whatever is taking you so long, I hope you’re doing well and you get over any setbacks along your way.
    I’ve never been a huge fan of Planet of the Apes, it was always an interest but never something I’d go out of my way to see. But within the past three years I’ve been finding my true identity and my true passion for filmmaking and photography, and when I was done watching Triumph for the first time, I couldn’t count on my hands how many times I was almost brought to a tear, because in many ways I feel like my story is similar to Cesar’s: in finding my identity and my place in the world.
    At the end of it all, your video inspired me. I don’t know what you’ve got in store with the next two videos, but I’m dying to see them.
    Best of wishes to you, and hopefully you can release these soon.

    StoryStreet I know we only have Part I of your series but thank you so much for doing it! My favourite is War, directed so much more beautifully by Matt Reeves! Reeves made Dawn a beautiful, powerful film on its own and equally within the pantheon of the whole Apes franchise but War I feel surpasses this, it's bleaker, even darker, more brutal yet has a lot of heart and soul at its centre. War especially makes me even more excited that Reeves is directing the next Batman movie, he proved he has the filmmaking chops and the emotional depth to bring to the Batman mythos. Plus, imagine a photorealistic terrifying motion-capture Clayface opposite a lifelike animatronic Scarface!
