Planet of the Apes
The film, Planet of the Apes came out in 1968. Then the sequels were: Beneath the Planet of the Apes 1970 Escape from the Planet of the Apes 1971 Conquest of the Planet of the Apes 1972 Battle for the Planet of the Apes 1973 I usually don't like older movies. Especially ones from the 70's because of the 70's quirkyness, but these films are really good. I've seen bits and pieces of them growing up but never really sat down and watched them. The plot throughout the movies is sooo god and stays strong through the sequels. I was really surprised. The films also mirror what was going on in the 60's and 70's as far as racial tension going on our own society. If you haven't seen these movies, go out and rent'em one at a time. Or do a marathon. They are worth it.

I watched the 4th movie last night. Conquest of the Planet of the Apes. The story is coming full circle. I love these movies.

Alot of the kids on this forum may not appreciate the greatness of the classics though. I just asked one of my 19yr old employees what they thought of the original, and they thought the Mark Walburg movie was the only one....I showed clips from online, and they said it looked like crap. I Love them though, politically strong undertones and great overall plot. But i'm a Sci-Fi buff so what do I know <---Nerd

I can see how younger kids may think the movies look like crap. Our society is so caught up on visuals. Be it visuals in video games, movies, people's appearance. It's hard for them to look past it.

Someone should make "Planet of the Bapes," starring a bunch of ugly expensive-ass shoes.

A new Apes movie is coming out in August.
The same cg company that did Avatar is doing the CG in the new one and all of the apes will be CG. At first I wasn't thrilled about it, but now that a little sample of the CG has been shown I'm super excited. This is probably the most realistic CG I've ever seen. The new movie is called Rise of Cesar. The first trailer debuts on iTunes tomorrow. So excited.
