This is one of the few trilogies that actually had solid acting, writing, story, character development, just everything about it is what makes it so good. What's great about it too is that each installment got better than the last. Unlike most trilogies which gets worse with each installment. Otherwise, the Apes trilogy lived up to its potential imo.
Zack Mont I think the last one was more emotional but it wasnt as unique as the two first movies and i think the whole third act was a bit rushed and convinient. Still a fantastic movie and Caesar is one of my favorite characters of all time.
Jay Er seriously. He was great as Caesar. I found myself liking Caesar more than any human in the films. Before watching this trilogy, I thought it would be cheesy, but it was actually quite moving in a way I did not expect at all. Loved the movies.
This trilogy was one of the best trilogies I have ever seen in my life. Seriously....they told a great story about one character that went through trials and tribulations. You followed the character, you cried with him, you understood where he came from. This series was GREAT!
Caesar's death scene, as tragic and sad as it is, is so poetic. It's beautiful, really, because he is at peace knowing that his fellow apes (including his son) will not only survive, but thrive. He's done his job, and now it's time to rest.
Motion Capture ≠ CGI. CGI is computer generated images. What Andy Serkis and other actors have done is live action performance capture which makes it look as realistic as it does in War. Have a look at the behind the scenes footage for a better idea :).
@@saqibq motion capture is CGI as well. it results in images generated by a computer, which is the definition of CGI (computer generated images). motion capture is a CGI technique. all CGI isn't bad, that myth needs to die. even Mad Max: Fury Road, which is applauded for its use of practical effects (which truly are phenomenal, don't get me wrong), use loads of CGI and the movie is better for it.
You look at this PERFECT CGI in War for the Planet of the Apes. And then you look at the AWFUL crap Disney and Marvel Studios are putting out.... YIKES
I just wanted to say I find it interesting how fast Caesar’s speech evolves: Planet: Could only say a couple of words Dawn: Could say full sentences but a bit choppy War: Could say everything perfectly
There's also the Star Trek trilogy of Wrath of Khan, Search for Spock, and Voyage Home. These are fantastic films by Nicolas Meyer (2) and Leonard Nimoy (3 and 4).
The only movie that made me cry in my 24 years of life time. I was sad when Caesar died, but those tears were for Maurice, Rocket and all the other apes, tears of hope, yet somehow a nostalgic feeling about how it began. Like damn, the brotherhood Maurice, Rocket and Caesar had is one of the purest in cinema history, and the fact that they are from different species makes it even better, something we as a society should strive for.
Andy Serkis is a national treasure. Give this man an oscar. Not only is he a brilliant actor, but just a fascinating person to listen to. Just hearing him talk about and analyze this phenomenal trilogy is just amazing.
Andy Serkis one of the most underrated actor in the history his facial expression and his body language brought Caesar alive not the special effects. Love from Bay Ridge Brooklyn
The way Andy says when talking about Kobas final moments... "... and he RELEASES him"... Rather accurate as it would be freeing Koba too from his life of torment etc, not just about letting him go or killing him.
That scene at the cage where Will leaves Caesar and he looks on in shock at the abandonment of the only person that makes him feel secure and warm...it is so heartbreaking that it prevents me from rewatching this trilogy at all. It is too painful.
The finest actor in the next gen cinematic industry . Andy Serkis is the CGI Daniel Day Lewis. What is an Oscar compared to the love, respect and recognition of millions around the world?
Dan B He was also Gollum in LOTR and the Hobbit movies. He's definitely an incredible and versatile actor. This gentleman needs an Oscar already. Then again the Oscars are a joke and Andy is too good for the Oscars.
I just wished that at the end he could have had a thought about his adoptive father Franco before he passed away. I wanted to see him happy. He hasn't smiled since he left home. 😢😢😢
I am old and I have seen THOUSANDS upon THOUSANDS of movies..,, BUT NEVER have any movies invoked such emotions in me as these 3 did...., I HATE what we humans do to animals to this day and always will, these movies brought out in me these intense feelings and my empathy for all animals that are used for science. I HATE IT!!!! I TRULY hope before I die that I will see yet the #4 of this series. The CGI they used to express the emotions in these characters blew me away, literally!..., ANDY SERKIS DESERVES NUMEROUS OSCARS for playing this INCREDIBLE CAESAR! INCREDIBLLY FANTASTIC movies!!!..., Oh and what can I say about MAURICE and ROCKET?!…, SUPERB!!!
I remember in theaters, seeings Caeser pass on and I legit shed a tear and thought to myself "this is gonna tear me up for a while" and to this very day, that scene claws at me
I noticed the 'Caesar as Moses' connection in the first movie Rise....when he kills the cruel slave master with his own rod, and then leads the Exodus to the Redwoods - which seemed to be the Promised Land at the time
Best Character and performance of Andy Serkis . When Caesar died i cried so much . He died like a real Hero , rest in Peace Caesar . Gongratulations Andy , your performance like the Hero of this Trilogy was awesome and touching Caesar is your best Character
Words can not describe how much respect i have for everybody who worked on this trilogy. Terry who teaches everyone how to be ape. And lets not forget how he played Rocket. And Karin what an amazing job she did to bring Maurice to life. And Andy of course for bring Caeser to life! From all the people who brought all the cgi apes to life! And many many more people who worked on this trilogy. Man! I love this trilogy and everytime i watch it i have to watch all the extra’s. I think the end is amazing! But now i have some questions who took over to be leader? Maurice? Rocket? Who? lol
kxmode I tried to cry 😭 but couldn't because I know I have to be strong 💪 and one question is it a role Ceaser has to play or Ceaser didn't know he was going to die
What i notice is that Ceaser had the same scar as Koba. Had he not went back to the colonel for revenge he would've never been shot in his side. Kobas revenge cost him his own life just like Ceaser. But at the same token, had Ceaser never went back, the apes would've died from gettin shot up.
I understand the reasoning as to why koba had to die, but given the brutal history of torture and experimentation he went through just to free fall hundreds of feet as his body smashes into all types of obstacles on the way down was a little disheartening for me to watch. I wish ceaser would have just pulled him up, said what he said and then just snapped koba's neck. An honorable kill to end the poor primate suffering. Other than that a great trilogy.
I love planet of the apes this is my favorite version by far and the best version I couldn't stop crying at the final scene in the last movie they did an incredible job with this trilogy and with amazing actors :)
This, was one of my favorite series. I love this, it was wonderful. Such a beautiful story. I will forever remember all my happiness and sadness traveling with this series. T-T
I like how the trilogy was very much like the story of Moses, where he was raised by the Egyptians(humans) and when he went back into his real people, the Hebrews(apes), he was at first looked at as a traitor but then gained their trusts and though war and conflict he led his people to the promise land and dies in peace before entering knowing his people are safe now

@@zackmont437 For sure, probably my fav trilogy of all time.
Labyriiint what about Nolan’s Batman trilogy?
@@aidenn4929 Nolan trilogy is also amazing from beginning to end
I'm not afraid to admit that I cried over a CGI ape at the end of that movie. T_T They did the originals a great honor.
Same man, same. I wasn't ready to see Caesar die.
that "you're going to stay here" scene felt like someone having to leave a dog at the pound Q_Q
Same :(((
So did I, 😭
You didn't cry because an ape died. You cried because Caesar died.
Give this man an Oscar
Jay Er not an Oscar, a Caesar
Jay Er seriously. He was great as Caesar. I found myself liking Caesar more than any human in the films. Before watching this trilogy, I thought it would be cheesy, but it was actually quite moving in a way I did not expect at all. Loved the movies.
Didn't he get one for Gollum already?
Yes
He did win one
This trilogy was one of the best trilogies I have ever seen in my life. Seriously....they told a great story about one character that went through trials and tribulations. You followed the character, you cried with him, you understood where he came from. This series was GREAT!
Andy serkis needs more recognition he’s an amazing actor
I agree!!
Hopefully now he’s Alfred he can get a lot more recognition
Andy Serkis is an amazing director too
@@Medina5Arts like the original one then his
That last one pulled on my heart strings

Yeah because he’s pretty much ape Moses if you think about it
It’s amazing how far the cgi has come in just 3 movies

Caesar is such a deep character and well thought out
I just wanted to say I find it interesting how fast Caesar’s speech evolves:
Planet: Could only say a couple of words
Dawn: Could say full sentences but a bit choppy
War: Could say everything perfectly
Rise not planet
Caesar became one of my favorite characters in fiction, thanks Andy Serkis and the effects team for such a rich character.
Rest In Peace Caesar! One of the best trilogies of all time since LOTR and Nolan's Batman films.
What is LOTR
Lord of the rings.
There's also the Star Trek trilogy of Wrath of Khan, Search for Spock, and Voyage Home. These are fantastic films by Nicolas Meyer (2) and Leonard Nimoy (3 and 4).
and dont forget, these were just the first 3 prequel films
Not really tho? Very average action films
Rest In Peace Caesar

Caesar didn’t die. He’s a legend.
And legends don’t die.
In the original Planet of the Apes, they've made a huge statue of him.
Hero’s are remembered.... but legends never die!
Caeser: *closes eyes*
Will:"Caeser c'mon time to come home."
I wonder if thats what he saw as the gates to heaven opened for him.
Damn, that got to me....
I think he moved beyond wanting that. He realized that no matter how much Will loved him, he'd always view him as inferior.
My feels!!!! 😢😢😢
@@maxhydekyle2425 facts but, ceasar is smart enough to understand that it was society that made will think that way
@@aylo.mp3 Ya I don't think he held it against Will. He just knew that it wouldn't really be possible for him to ever truly view him as equal.
The actor and character are both incredible
They need to make a movie about Cornelius(Caesar’s youngest son) journey to be king
But also tell audiences how the world got nuked, leading to the famous ending. "GODDAMN YOU ALL TO HELL!"
whered you find out that info?

I watched War two days ago and I was captivated in every scene. The direction and shots were fantastic like no other movie.
The finest actor in the next gen cinematic industry .
Andy Serkis is the CGI Daniel Day Lewis.
What is an Oscar compared to the love, respect and recognition of millions around the world?
I really hope they continue this film series. These new planet of the apes movies are very high calibre but grossly underrated.
Off topic but Andy is killing it
Finished POTA trilogy, he’s snoke in Star Wars,He in Black panther and Infinity war
Dan B He was also Gollum in LOTR and the Hobbit movies. He's definitely an incredible and versatile actor. This gentleman needs an Oscar already. Then again the Oscars are a joke and Andy is too good for the Oscars.
And King Kong in peter Jackson’s King Kong,
PC PRINCIPAL he also played the cook named lumpy in king kong as well.
Dan B a very under appreciated actor. I under estimated him myself, and man was I wrong.
He wasn't in infinity war
The fact that I cried when a cgi ape died after seeing his whole life in a flawless trilogy says something...
I just wished that at the end he could have had a thought about his adoptive father Franco before he passed away. I wanted to see him happy. He hasn't smiled since he left home. 😢😢😢
He smiled when he died?
Still depressed as h*ll from the character deaths this year in cinema.
The best trilogy I've ever seen, period. Damn shame that Serkis didn't get more credit for what he did with Caesar, especially the last two movies.
one of the best trilogies ever made
I was gutted for Caesar, but I'm glad Maurice and Rocket lived.
Andy Serkis is England’s national treasure!!
Alex Townley he should be knighted
Aiden Ewer hell yes!!

I’ve watched this movie so many times and I STILL cry at his death 😭😭😭
These movies deserves all the Oscars
Caesar is basically Moses in these movies if you think about it
Andy Serkis is a BRILLIANT ACTOR and just brings so much life and emotion to Ceasar’s character
I noticed the 'Caesar as Moses' connection in the first movie Rise....when he kills the cruel slave master with his own rod, and then leads the Exodus to the Redwoods - which seemed to be the Promised Land at the time
Oh yeah.. now I see it.
Oh, across the sea...
Best Character and performance of Andy Serkis . When Caesar died i cried so much . He died like a real Hero , rest in Peace Caesar .
Gongratulations Andy , your performance like the Hero of this Trilogy was awesome and touching
Caesar is your best Character
And in the very last few seconds as Caesar lays his head down, some of the other apes also notice with alarm of Caesars passing 😢
Why doesn't this video have more views?? Andy Serkis is one of the best actors ever and this role proves it!
Best trilogy since LOTR
ANTONIO chambers nawh man rises was crap, ruins the trilogy
You forgot about the Star Wars Prequels.
Just kidding.
The first two were alright in my opinion. But I really liked the last one.
Lee Bonnar actually I prefers rise over the original idk why
@@SosaA11 Dark Knight ruined by last film
I cant believe this is how hard caesar's life was well it was an honor CAESAR
Words can not describe how much respect i have for everybody who worked on this trilogy.
Terry who teaches everyone how to be ape.
And lets not forget how he played Rocket.
And Karin what an amazing job she did to bring Maurice to life.
And Andy of course for bring Caeser to life!
From all the people who brought all the cgi apes to life!
And many many more people who worked on this trilogy.
Man! I love this trilogy and everytime i watch it i have to watch all the extra’s.
I think the end is amazing! But now i have some questions who took over to be leader? Maurice? Rocket? Who? lol
I love that
I have to admit that I never used to give Andy Serkis the credit that he so richly deserved. I blubbed at the end of the third chapter. I admit it.
Possibly one of the greatest trilogies of all time
I cried at the end of War. :(

Fascinating! Love Caesar, love Andy.
Its so amazing. This man has been in 2 of the greatest trilogies to ever Grace this Earth
This trilogy had such a beautiful story arch
I'm not sobbing. I'm not sobbing. I'm not.
This whole trilogy has been consistent all the way through! It’s why it’s my favourite “perfect trilogy” 🔥❤️
Give this man all the oscars
These movies should be more well known than they already are.
How did this man not win any big time awards?!!!
Cesear is epic!
Andy Serkis truly did an amazing job on playing Caesar
My favorite modern trilogy, next to the Dark Knight trilogy.
In my opinion, Caesar has the heart of a human then a ape.
Planet of the apes is one of the best (if not the best) movie trilogies out there
Probably THE most underrated actor
In the last scene, if you look to at the bottom left by Caeser's body you can see Rocket come walking up to him, damn thats sad.
One of the best trilogies of the past decade if not of all time.
Top 5 all time IMO.
Agree 100%
This movie was so good
I actually cried watching this cause caesar was passing and when Andy said he knows he's done his job I was crying 😭😭😭
Well done Andy for bringing dessert to life excellent movies so sad the ending of war I was crying m eyes out Fraser you will never be forgotten
If they laid Ceasar on a bed of lettuce, you could call that a Caesar Salad! 😄
kxmode buh dum bssh
Andy Serkis is such a cool guy.
Good trilogy, but stop with all the freaking ads IGN. The one at the end was especially frustrating.
Ever heard of Adblock?!
Really great character and trilogy
Amazing trilogy. Just watched all 3.
Fun fact
In rise: there were summer
In dawn: there were rainy season
In war: there were Winter
Trilogy was perfectly going with weathers
I love planet of the apes this is my favorite version by far and the best version I couldn't stop crying at the final scene in the last movie they did an incredible job with this trilogy and with amazing actors :)
Andy deserves an oscar
I need to watch the 3rd movie again
Did anyone notice that the promised land in the end is Mt st Helen’s in Washington
WOW you can see tears in his eyes
One of the best trilogies ever 🙂
The Best Character and best Performance of Andy Serkis
Kinda hurts that he didn’t win an Oscar from this
Rewatched the Trilogy only to remind myself of this Amazing Story
Ain’t this the dude who got eaten by the worms in King Kong
It’s him
It might be awesome if before his last breath he said "Ceasar is Home..."
This, was one of my favorite series. I love this, it was wonderful. Such a beautiful story. I will forever remember all my happiness and sadness traveling with this series. T-T
they need make movie ceaser son storey part 4
a life is born innocent but cruel world takes away all that innocense....
I like how the horses are still loyal to us
All three movies made me cry
The winston mains go through this every game
The ending of WFTPOTA reminded me of Guru passing in Namek/Frieza Saga in Dragon Ball Z.
If Roddy McDowell was still here he would be so proud.
This man deserves Oscar
The way he is analysing this is like my English teacher😂😂😂
I like how the trilogy was very much like the story of Moses, where he was raised by the Egyptians(humans) and when he went back into his real people, the Hebrews(apes), he was at first looked at as a traitor but then gained their trusts and though war and conflict he led his people to the promise land and dies in peace before entering knowing his people are safe now
Give oscar this man......
These 3 movies are my fav movies but mayb Caesar rest in peace😭😭🤧🤧🕊
I almost cried when caesar died.
