In Escape from the Planet of the Apes, what did you think of the gorilla and chimpanzee costumes used for the primitive apes in the film. These are no in regards to Cornelius, Milo or Zira, just Heloise (chimp at the circus) and the gorilla (at the zoo).

Boy, were they lame or what?!?

They were okay.

I've never seen this movie.

In Conquest of the Planet of the Apes, what is your theory on why apes were used as slaves? Don't you think the humans had been forwarned of the danger of ape domination from 1973's arrival of the 3 talking apes?

Yes, you'd think so.

No, because humans are evil!

What?!?

Was Battle for the Planet of the Apes a nessesary film to finish the series?

No way!

Original concept, but Burton's updated costumes/make up.

Burton's alternate concept was much better.

William T. Quick has written a new Planet of the Apes novel, title "The Fall", which is a prequel to the 2001 Tim Burton film. Would you like to see this movie made into a film?

Sure, maybe it would explain alot.

Nah.

I'd have to read the book first.

In the mid 70's, there was Return to the Planet of the Apes, a Saturday morning cartoon. Since 20th Century Fox has been kind enough to release all of the original films to DVD, plus the TV series, would you like to see the animated series also released to DVD?
