.html Hey everyone,
Has anyone ever heard of Under The Planet of The Apes, or something to
that effect? One of my friends told me that they read in the Chicago
Tribune that they're doing some kind of performance of it at Northwestern
University. She said it's a popular take-off of the movie. I would think
if it actually existed, I would've heard about it by now, being the POTA
fanatic I am. If anyone knows anything about either the movie/play, or the
performance at Northwestern, I'd like to more. Thanks!

Do you have a Target store there? Here (Texas) at Target
they are all down to $9.99 each. Other than that, just go up
onto Ebay. I KNOW you can get the figure for much less
than forty bucks! :-)
Good luck.

.htmlThanks, guys. I did get the first two POTA figs. in the series at
Target (as far as I know the only place that has these figures), but
haven't seen Taylor at all there yet. The Gorilla and Zira that I got
were the last ones there, so I know they're hard to find.
I may have to get this figure on the secondary market, but I sure
won't pay $40 for it...

Hi Terry, Jeff Krueger here.I have a couple of items for your
"New Products" file. I was in a collectibles store today and they had two of
those Japanese "Ape" figures that have been mentioned, specifically "Cornelius"
and a "Soldier Ape". With a discount, I got the Soldier for $25. Since I'm not
too savvy when it comes to imported toys, so I decided to wait on the other one
until I can scope out a better price. I think they are the only ones available
right now, since they are the only ones pictured on the card back. But the card
promises 19 of them, but not as great a selection as one might think (no
mutants!). The lineup is slated to include: Taylor, Cornelius, and Zira (those
three available as astronauts or in their more familiar guise), Milo (as
astronaut), Lucius, Gen. Ursus, Gen. Aldo, Gen. Urko, Dr. Zauis, Nova, Caesar
and, whatever the hell they are, "Caesar Land's Ape" and "Greatest Ape". Of
course, that only makes 16. The last 3 apparently are variant Soldier Apes.
There's the one I have with a brown gun, there's one pictured with a lighter gun
and the card has another "Soldier Ape" designation. They aren't appreciatively
superior to Hasbro's 7" line, just better proportioned and smaller (which I
like). They are officially licensed, with the Fox logo. Look for them from
Japanese toy importers. Meanwhile, what's Hasbro up to? All should be revealed
next week at Toy Fair 2000 (Feb. 13 - 17), where toy toy companies annually
unveil their lines for the year. If there's going to be more "Ape" toys, we'll
post 'em here. Also upcoming is the annual ShoWest convention for movie theatre
owners (March 6 - 9 in Las Vegas). If there's any news on the new "Ape" movie,
Fox will reveal it
there!
TERRY: I worked with Bill Blake on his announcement to commence with his line of
collectibles, which I'll put on your website.

<<The last 3 apparently are variant Soldier Apes. There's the one I have

The lighter gun he refers to is the machine gun seen in "Beneath".
<< They aren't appreciatively superior to Hasbro's 7" line, just better
proportioned and smaller (which I like).>>
Here's where I disagree vehemently. I have Cornelius and one Soldier Ape,
and these figures are by far the best three dimensional representations I've
ever seen of the characters. The sculpt quality blows Hasbro away (I did a
side by side comparison, and there's just no contest - I'll try to post pics
when I can). There's limited poseability (no worse than Hasbro), but the
detail on the faces and costumes is unsurpassed.
Some pics from Ebay:

.html In the latest issue of "Cinescape" Jan/Feb. Issue, In the back theres an
article "Monkey Business" talking about the spring 2000 release of the
"Planet of the Apes"
video Playstation game. It shows some of the screens from the game. It looks
pretty great. I'm surprised that Fox interactive is releasing this before
releasing the movies on DVD. You can also see some of the characters on the
website search..Fox interactive website. I hope you enjoy! Always waiting to

Yes, Giorgio
Good Guys Wear Black
Omen 2

They were all films made by directors of the original POTA series. Guys who
specialized in generic war films, Charles Bronson movies, an ASTOUNDING

attempted, it should have the berserk quality of a nightmare. Any film about
talking monkeys done in this age is going to be either funny or sick and
twisted. That doesn't mean it should be dark visually, though, which is a
signature look of Burton's (though not on everything he's done).

At first notice of Burton and POTA's, I got turned off.
Then, I considered some of what a few of you have been
saying and now am more intrigued. Indeed it would add
a different flavor to Apes, and if someone else was to just
make it without being a bit bizzare, it would be just another
'remake,' and I don't want to see the same film all over
again. I welcome a "different" look to the film.

Correction from the earlier e-mail:
The Thursday, 17 Feb. 2000, "Hollywood Reporter" says Tim Burton is
the front-runner to direct "Planet of the Apes", with a decision
to be made this week.
Sorry for the pre-mature hysteria, but nothing's definite yet.

And let's not forget Edward Scissorhands! (Beetlejuice & Pee Wee's Big
Adventure too, if we want to go way back!)
I find the idea of a Burton PotA film intriguing. I'd still rather they
didn't make a new one at all, but if they do then I reckon Burton would be
one of my choices.

NEWS RELEASE
BILL BLAKE, known to fans,
collectors, convention-goers, and APES aficionados almost everywhere for close
to three decades, announces the issue of the first pieces in his collector's
series of REPRODUCTIONS of ORIGINAL
APPLIANCES from the films and television series. Originally
mentioned in February 1999 as an advance announcement to gauge fan/public
interest, he is now ready to move forward with the project.
Bill's first offering is his duplicate from
the appliance given him by Roddy McDowall - during the filming of CONQUEST OF
THE PLANET OF THE APES - but it actually has multi-threat collector's value: The
original mold that the appliance came from can be traced back to his "Cornelius"
character in ESCAPE FROM THE PLANET OF THE APES (see cover, "Famous Monsters of
Filmland, #85, July 1971). An adapted version of the piece was also used in
rotation with one of Bill's own molds for his 1970's licensed tour presentations
(pictured on brochure in "Planet of the Apes Collectibles" by Christopher
Sausville, Pg. 100).
Although, ultimately, 1000 pieces will be
available in this "Cornelius/Caesar/Bill Blake Tour" series, it will be broken
up into four equal parts, with the first grouping of 250 pieces being offered
now on a FIRST COME, FIRST SERVED basis. Bill has decided to divide the series
to make production and delivery schedules more manageable; so each fan within
this portion of the series will be able to have his collector's piece in the
shortest possible time, while still maintaining the utmost attention to quality
and professionalism. Bill is taking reservations now, so you'll have to contact
him A.S.A.P. if you want to assure your "place in line" for the lowest
production numbers.
Since the initial announcement, Bill has
added a collector's bonus to his design: on a deluxe, double-wide plaque
configuration, TWO vacuum-formed life masks are mounted side-by-side. One shows
the actor's face, exposed; it's companion holds the appliance, as it would be
applied to the actor. The combination provides a kind of "before and after",
forever frozen in time. The price is $375.00 - very reasonable for the history
contained in this wonderful piece - and is complete with applicable certificates
and/or letter of authenticity. Plaques are real, trophy-quality wood backings,
appliances are airbrushed to proper character colors with archival-quality clear
coating for best possible long-lasting durability. Each piece has a legend plate
on it describing it's history, teeth are mounted in the mouth and glazed for
that "wet look", and, of course, being a chimp character, ears - once again from
original molds - are included in the mountings.
Bill wishes to stress that these pieces ARE
NOT "resculpts". All collector's series pieces are derived directly from
the actual appliances, most of which were actually sculpted by John Chambers
himself. They are more akin to the likes of a series of fine artist's prints in
the art world. It must also be added, though, that because of the age of
the appliances, and the way they were used originally in production, etc.,
certain small areas may have been touched up in order to "bridge gaps" or
correct slight damage. All of such correctional/restoration work is carried out
and/or directly supervised by Mr. Blake, who was, of course, trained in all
these techniques by Mr. Chambers personally and is fully guaranteed to provide a
collector's piece of museum quality or better.
Recently, some small pieces of the
original APE CITY set from PLANET, BENEATH, the series, etc. have been
unearthed. So Bill will supply some of these as an extra bonus to the earliest
orders (offer available while supplies last! Once they're gone, they're gone!).
Pieces are authenticated (size & shape of each varies), and some still have
"flecks" or whole sections of the sandstone-colored scenic paint on them. These
pieces are from the base of the arena, in the central square of APE
CITY.
You can contact Bill through Jeff
Krueger at the PLANET OF THE APES INTERNATIONAL FAN CLUB, or if you have
questions or comments that need a direct response, you may leave them,
along with return phone numbers, etc., on Mr. Blake's personal VOICE MAIL/PAGER
NUMBER AT: (818) 698-2553.
"Bill's makeup is the most authentic recreation I've seen.
Bill's shows are like seeing Roddy in the makeup again".
- - - Natalie Trundy,
"Apes" film star and Mrs. Arthur P. Jacobs
Fans who remember Bill Blake through
his live show and promotional appearances in the '70's with partner Paula Crist,
recreating the characters of Cornelius and Zira; from his in-depth , epic, two -
part Marvel PLANET OF THE APES Magazine interview (#12, 13), the picture feature
(#27); and his ground-breaking "Country Ape" appearance on the POTA TV show -
the only time in the history of the APES movies and show where an actor was
allowed to create his own appliance for the role - will be pleased to know that
Bill is still out there, as actor AND technician, recreating Mr. Jacobs' &
Mr. Chambers' AMAZING APES. A VERY young 47, he has most recently
completed an interesting , insightful interview for Luiz Adami (author of
the Brazilian book "The Only Good Human Is A Dead Human"), has done numerous
APES-related interviews, provided film footage for AMC's "Behind the PLanet of
the Apes" and still performs as "Cornelius and Caesar , doing live
visual/vocal recreations for Matt Stein's L. A.-based PLANET OF THE APES- themed
band, "APE HAS KILLED APE". Bill will share the spotlight with his mentor,
John Chambers , in an upcoming issue of "Ape
Chronicles".

Burton has opted 20th
Century Fox for the rights to film the much purported "Planet of the
Apes" remake. No actors chosen yet, but he wants to do a young cast this
time around. Release date: July 4th , 2001.
Has anyone heard anything else?? <.html

Yes, I believe they'll be using Johnny Depp as Cornelius and Paul Reubens
as the intimidating Dr. Zaius :)

.htmlHey all of you,
You people are total morns! Tim Burton is probably the best choice to
direct an Apes movie that has come along in years. Instead of saying "Wow,
this could make for an interesting movie, rather than a re-hash piece of
crap" (like most new remakes turn into), you just joke about it.
Have any of you actually seen any of Burton's films? Or do you just skim
your knowledge from other people's web postings? Like the person on this
list who didn't even know who Burton was!!! Man, that would be like saying
(in 1976) "Kubrick, um who is this Kubrick fellow??"
I think Depp would make a fantastic Cornelius. He is such a visual actor,
it would play perfectly into the character and the way in which an actor
needs to bring the mask to life.
Quit playing with your ape toys, and think about films again....Jeez!

Uh . . .eh . . . er . . . nah. Too easy.
You're a real people person, aren't you, Sam? I agree that Burton is the
best name I've heard (I said so already), but why so hostile? Do you talk
to people in real life this way? I'm guessing no.

Sam,
Get a grip. When I said "Yes, I believe they'll be using Johnny Depp as
Cornelius and Paul Reubens as the intimidating Dr. Zaius :) . . . yes it was a
joke, but it doesn't mean that I hated the idea of Tim Burton or that I even
disliked his films. (I thought Sleepy Hollow was the most effective horror
film to come along in a loooong time).
Just because we joke does not mean we are ridiculing. I joke with my wife all
the time--it doesn't mean I don't love her; I joke at work--it doesn't mean I
don't take my job seriously. Don't read so much into it.

Yep, see above. How would we know what actors Burton has used otherwise?

Well, even if there was a person who didn't know who Tim Burton was, big deal.
I believe this IS the POTA mailing, and so far as I know no one is given a
quiz before they're allowed on board.
Just lighten up. If you can't joke and have fun, then you're living in a
reality far stranger than Tim Burton ever dreamed up himself. --Just a
thought. <.html

being the case, I really need just an icon or two from that, I don't want to

.html From Cinescape Online:
Perhaps you thought Todd McFarlane�s Gorilla World TV series concept sounded
a tad bit too much like Planet of the Apes? So did Fox. Now, the plug has
been pulled on the potential series.
Back in January, UPN announced that Spawn creator Todd McFarlane was
developing a TV series which had a temporary title of Gorilla World. The
series would focus on a post-apocalyptic Earth where gorillas ruled while
mankind suffered. Regarding its seeming similarities with 20 Century Fox�s
Planet of the Apes franchise, McFarlane was quoted as saying, "When was Fox
granted the rights to be the only people who talked about Darwin?"
According to Variety, McFarlane�s comments quickly prompted the studio to
take action. The trade reports that Fox quickly sent a cease-and-desist
letter to UPN regarding the potential series. Soon afterwards, to prove they
were in earnest about their announcement made at ShoWest 1999, Fox
officially announced that Tim Burton was on the verge of signing on to
revive the franchise.
UPN is saying that they didn�t pull the plug on Gorilla World because of the
Fox letter, but for other unspecified reasons. UPN is hoping to get
McFarlane to develop another project as a possible mid-season replacement
for the network.
McFarlane, on the other hand, continues to be outspoken about the matter
taking issue with Fox citing the network's Greed game show as just another
reworked version of ABC�s Who Wants to Be a Millionaire. McFarlane told the
trade, "It�s always amazing when the thieves call the other thieves thieves.
There are no big original ideas."

But on the other hand it would have been nice to see a new version of POTA

Hopefully if the new remake make it Big at the box office, Fox would create
a t.v. show or some new animation for saturday mornings.
That would be cool!

I saw this
on Entertainment Weekly's website and thought of you. Personally, I think
Hollywood shd make fewer movies and try to come up with new ideas instead of
rehashing movies which are fine in the original format (esp.
Psycho). Great Apes The latest about the ''Planet of the Apes''
remake. David Hochman says Tim Burton and Jack Nicholson would make a great
team I can see it now. ''Get your stinking Scissorhands off me, you
damned dirty ape!'' Last month, when word came from Twentieth Century Fox
that Tim Burton will direct a new millennium version of ''Planet of the
Apes,'' I started digging out my old Dr. Zaius mask and my hirsute Roddy
McDowell action figurines. After all, an ''Apes'' remake had been
rumored for years and I was going bananas just waiting -- especially after
all the false starts. At one point, Arnold Schwarzenegger had reportedly
signed on to star for $20 million, and Chris Columbus and Oliver Stone were
both mentioned to direct. Stone probably envisioned the film as a true story
in which apes really ARE conspiring to rule the world. It's no wonder I was
so relieved when Burton finally came on board. Now it looks like Apeheads
will be in monkey heaven by Summer 2001. All of which has made me
realize how truly bizarre a blockbuster ''Planet'' remake actually is. For
one thing, much of the appeal of the first five ''Ape'' films -- from the
truly original ''Planet of the Apes'' in 1968 to 1973's truly abysmal
''Battle for the Planet'' (the one where McDowell returns from the past to
stave off the apocalypse) -- was the franchise's wonderfully low-art
sensibility: The latex lips that could only move up and down; Dr. Zaius's
blond Greg Allman hair and beard; Charlton Heston's overzealous overacting.
Not to mention all that unintentionally hilarious dialogue. Remember ''You
cut up his brain, you bloody baboon!'' and the infamous: ''Human see, human
do.'' Still, the original ''Planet'' films -- and the subsequent ABC TV
series and NBC's Saturday morning cartoon -- made me one happy monkey.
The franchise's air of possibility; the ''what if apes really do take
over'' quotient was, at times, overpowering. At a certain point in my
childhood, I thought nothing would be cooler than if Cornelius and Zira
showed up at my house, looked at me with their expressive monkey eyes, and
told me they were taking me to the Forbidden Zone. That was, as long as I
wouldn't have to lay eyes on my absolute worst childhood nightmare -- the
dark and hairy General Ursus. My hope is that a remake won't make
those monkey memories extinct. Then again, if anyone can do the franchise
justice, it's Burton. His famous long shadows, jagged angles, and distorted
perspective should lend a new level of depth and darkness to ''Planet.'' And
it would be great to see Burton's regular roster of actors -- Johnny Depp,
Winona Ryder, Danny DeVito and especially Jack Nicholson -- suiting up in ape
costumes. The script in hand, by ''Apollo 13'' writer William Broyles
Jr., is said to be excellent, though Burton, whose narrative elements tend to
take a backseat to his remarkable visual style, is said to be rewriting it to
fit his simian imaginings. Not that that's a bad thing, if dialogue in
the remake's anything like the original. After all, how many lines
like ''That's one small step for Ape, one giant leap for Apekind'' can one
human take?

I work with computers (ok ok I write Software, but I am no geek), but in

features as the soundtrack for the original POTA.
I live in the UK
Just recently Channel 4 in the UK have just aired the first three in the
series. I'm hooked. I have heard of POTA before, but I hadn't taken much
interest (shame on me)
After watching the films, I had a quick hunt round the internet, and
here I am.
Two things:
POTA fans in the UK? Terry Tells me they are very strong supporters,
where are you?
If they want music for a remake - I can make some suggestions, oh and
whilst we are on the subject. If they need an ape extras cast, they need

A group newbie asks: which new T shirts?, and ducks
The remake rumbles on:
There is no way in which the original should be copied - better I think
perhaps to go back to the original novel and give it a fuller treatment.
But what it needs is 'Epic' scope - I don't think it can be done in
less than two hours. The message at the end must surely be different, as
the modern world is a different place. I have my own ideas, but unless
people on this group want a load of philosophy (and a really bad attempt
at a scroll) I'll be quiet.
I suspect everyone has had enough of remake thoughts, esp director,
cast etc. etc. What we need is not pop art (a la Mars Attacks) though,
more Kubrick or 2001,

Don't know which one he's talking about... however...
Suncoast Video was selling two different POTA's
t-shirts several months ago -- I got the black one. It
has great artwork on it, and the "Planet of the Apes"
logo on the front breast is embroidered in silver. THE
BEST t-shirt of POTA's I've ever seen (or owned!).
They sold out fast though. I went back thinking I'd get
more and offer them to some fellow fans, but they were
all gone. Oh well. Happy aping!

A couple of T-shirts just out:
A white one, which features 4 squares in a horizontal strip - one of Taylor,
one of Caesar (from Conquest), one of Zaius, and one of Ursus. It also has
the PotA logo on it too. Great shirt.
A black one with a huge picture of Urko (with a kind of red glow around him)
in an Uncle Sam style pose (pointing) accompanied by huge lettering "I WANT
YOU". If it was just that it would be great, but sadly there is more
lettering underneath that, which reads "to hunt down all humans and do with
them as you wish for the only good human is a dead human!" which kind of
spoils it. It also has the PotA logo on it.
I'd scan them, but the designs are too big for my scanner!

Thanks for the link,
great restoration!
Dr Milo happens to be my fave from the series (probably because I get
compared to him at work - don't ask why), he's the one ape I'd like to

I would be very grateful if anyone could supply me with the extant

.html Zanuck Back With 'Apes'
Richard Zanuck is returning as producer of the remake of one of the films
he pushed through while president of Fox in the '60s: Planet of the Apes.
Zanuck's signing for the important producing position serves to show how
serious Fox is about getting the Apes production up and moving quickly. In
addition, Zanuck's participation might calm any doubts fans of the old series
have about a contemporary take on the classic film series.
While talking to Variety, current 20th Century Fox Film Group prez, Tom Rothman,
says, "This is a big film with a very very significant director. (Zanuck) is a
pro's pro
and there's the karmic unity of the fact he was here when the series started.
There's
a certain poetry to that."
Zanuck tells the Hollywood Reporter, "For me to come back into this, I feel like
I'm
in a time warp. I initially put this into production when I was at Fox 30-some
years
ago. The idea was so intriguing to me then, and I think we can do better now
because
technology will allow us to improve the look and articulation of the apes."
Regarding working with Tim Burton, the producer adds, "Tim Burton is somebody
who
I admire and have tried to get for a lot of my previous projects, but was never
was able
to do it." Zanuck is said to have already met twice with Burton and the project
and will
do so again after the Academy Awards broadcast, something else he produces.
Now that the project has both a producer and a director, the previously
announced Tim
Burton, pre-production on the project should start very quickly as well as any
necessary
re-writes of Bill Broyles script.

.htmlAt risk of being ridiculed for my ignorance, what is Bill Broyles script?
Is it the original POTA script or a new story (I have heard the "new" film
over the past 8 years or so referred to as both a "remake" and a new story
and I have read a variety of scripts - just checking!).

.htmlApes Saga Coming to DVD!
Here's a little tidbit from dvdfile.com (thanks to our tipster for
letting us know):
Now, on to the goodies. First is probably the biggest Fox request as of
late, the PLANET OF THE APES box set. Indeed, this six-disc set
is THX-certified and all-anamorphic (yeah, baby), will arrive around 4Q
2000 and features all the films plus an extra "sixth disc" containing
the terrific making-of documentary seen on the Fox Channel, amongst
other places. However, never fear, the sixth disc will be included in
the
box set and you won't have to mail away for it! There may be some other
goodies on the discs, but in any event it looks pretty dang cool. No
price is yet available.

.htmlI'm working on a Flash based POTA animation. I have collated plenty of photo
resources from various sites, but what I am really after is some wav files
of the weird funky music from the first film, specifically, the kind of
discordant trumpeting noise that signalled the human hunt. Does anyone know
of a site where I might find such files? I have had a look around, but the
number of fan sites out there is pretty staggering.
Any help appreciated.

I'm completely oblivious to all this DVD lark - what does anamorphic mean?
That's something to do with the screen ratio, yes?

I'l answer, but first: I read the link, and whoever sent that post to
me in the first place copied the press release word for word, except
they changed "non- anamorphic" to "All-anamorphic". Why? I don't know.
In layman's terms (or as I understand it - feel free to correct me) -
Anamorphic is similar to Cinescope, where the actual exposed image is
stretched vertically into a 35mm frame. It's then projected through a
lens which squashes the image back into its proper perspective. On
video, this packs more visual information into the thinner widescreen
frame, giving greater detail. <.html
