Just ran a test tonight and everything seems to working just fine.
Episode 1 was captured at 525 megs in Super VCD format, good sound and
picture, and no delays on audio.
7 episodes will be in disc 1 and 6 episodes in disc 2.

I'll have both DVDs ready by this weekend with captured pics to show to the
group, and ready to ship during the coming week.
Jeff's DVD will be ready in July.

Best.
Al

P.S. God, I love a good challenge. :o)

Loren Green said that.  Of course he only had one nipple when he said it.  An alligator bit it off while he was filming Loren Green's Wild World.  I wonder how you let a gator get near your nipple?  But if you think that's weird, think on this.  On Bonanza, Dan Blocker, who played his son Hoss, was older than he was!

I heard of others saying that the "Escape" ship is a mysterious third ship. I  know it's supposed to be Taylor's ship, but I did some theorizing just to see how it "could be" possible to say it's a third ship.


Here's an idea.  Some say that when you go through a Star Trek transporter that it actually destroys you and just makes a copy on the other side.  Perhaps that's what happened to the ship when it went through the time warp.  Only it was a bad copy.  That might explain Zira's hairline receding after the opening credits.

.htmlHey,
Did anybody else bother to see "Windtalkers" last weekend?  I did.  Anyway, the rock pool from PLANET (and countless other Fox movies) makes an appearance in a scene in "Windtalkers."  It's still there in Malibu Creek State Park and it still looks pretty much the same.  (By the way, I didn't like "Windtalkers."  Too much war action.  It got ridiculous.)

The ship never sank....what Taylor, Landon and Dodge saw was just an illusion created by the mutants in order to confuse them. So what Milo and the chimps eventually found was a fully intact and workable ship.

Well that's the way I would unflub it anyways...

I'll tell ya what happened, 'cause I was there, so I know. As the Icarus
sank it inverted. And air pocket protected the water sensitive systems from
shorting out. Some of the oxygen cylinders had bad seals on them. And when
the ship reached a certain depth the cold and pressure were too much for the
valves and they burst, driving most of the water out the hatch. The
resulting explosion caused the spare life raft to inflate, plugging the
hatch. As the ship rose, it righted itself and drifted ashore, where it was
found by Dr. Milo et al. QED

Good to see you, Rory. I heard a Fresh Air broadcast on NPR about
this and thought it was interesting. Is there any meat to the
story? Or does "Too much war action..." pretty much sum it up?
Thanks.

Hey,
Did anybody else bother to see "Windtalkers" last weekend?  I did.  Anyway, the rock pool from PLANET (and countless other Fox movies) makes an appearance in a scene in "Windtalkers."  It's still there in Malibu Creek State Park and it still looks pretty much the same.  (By the way, I didn't like "Windtalkers."  Too much war action.  It got ridiculous.)

Serious. That's the most worry free solution I could come up with and it
falls in line with the mutants' ability to project illusions. But honestly, I
don't get too bent out of shape about the ship or the other flubs. I just
enjoy the films for what they are.

The  ship is not a "dead horse" and we need to keep up topics on the APES all we can in here... I hope it gets the ball rolling in here as to other real APES topics / ideas because it sure as hell beats reading about some crap like left or right wing politics, whose gonna star in the next big budget movie, or some of the other way off base topics we get in here from time to time.

I predict Mr. Lucas will release the SW flicks on DVD in 2007. Ep. 3 comes
out in 2005 and then he will fiddle with the originals. He's shooting new
stuff and maybe even a new release in theatres of the "Special Special
edition " in '07, for the 30th anniversary. Then he will die.

Well there is no way these are official 20th Century Fox release - they are waiting to release these Episodes until Episode 3 hits DVD and they will have even more scenes added to Ep 4, 5 and 6.
 
If Alex says they are good quality then I'm sure they are, put personally my VHS tapes sound almost DVD quality anyway (as they do when you pay a lot for your VCR and surround amplifier/speakers).  So I guess the only advantage would be skipping chapters and that means very little to me.
 
Just on the topic, I have been assured by an expert in hi-fi that there are many different levels of DVD player sound quality output.  Someone recently said that it is all digital output so that would not matter.  That is not the case.  A cheap DVD player will put out cheap sound, albeit through 5 or 6 speakers.
 
Hey Alex, do these really have subtitles or is that just a joke?

It has something to do with bit rates.  To get good sound from a DVD player you have to have a sound processor that decodes the Dolby Digital 5.1 sound, or the better DTS sound.  To my ears DTS is only slightly better than DD 5.1, but both are pretty good and of course much better than VHS HiFi Dolby surround.  However, if you like what you're are hearing if you only have Dolby Surround, then fine.  Be happy with what you have.  That's the best way to live.

I had to think about it but what bugs me the most on POTA is the inconsistant
timeline given by Cornelius in ESCAPE. On the one hand he says that
apes spoke English for 2000 years and later he says they took several centuries
to articulate. The thing that bugs me is that the inconsistancy is not
between movies but in the same movie. Why didn't Roddy McDowall catch
this? Did he even care? I'll have to go with James explanation that
Cornelius wasn't telling the truth on one of them.

How good could they be, unless they had access to masters.  It's not unheard of.  A German group that had access to Brian Wilson's studio made remixes from dubs from the masters of Smile.

I think the big difference with DTS is that the rear (effects) speakers are in Stereo, otherwise they are in Mono.

If Alex says they are good quality then I'm sure they are, put personally my VHS tapes sound almost DVD quality anyway (as they do when you pay a lot for your VCR and surround amplifier/speakers).


How good could they be, unless they had access to masters.  It's not unheard of.  A German group that had access to Brian Wilson's studio made remixes from dubs from the masters of Smile.

They look very good but there is no way in the world they are
official releases, just very well done bootlegs.

Don't be surprised if Fox has eBay pull these auctions any day now.

Well there is no way these are official 20th Century Fox release - they are waiting to release these Episodes until Episode 3 hits DVD and they will have even more scenes added to Ep 4, 5 and 6.
 
If Alex says they are good quality then I'm sure they are, put personally my VHS tapes sound almost DVD quality anyway (as they do when you pay a lot for your VCR and surround amplifier/speakers).  So I guess the only advantage would be skipping chapters and that means very little to me.
 
Just on the topic, I have been assured by an expert in hi-fi that there are many different levels of DVD player sound quality output.  Someone recently said that it is all digital output so that would not matter.  That is not the case.  A cheap DVD player will put out cheap sound, albeit through 5 or 6 speakers.
 
Hey Alex, do these really have subtitles or is that just a joke?

Even if its a different timelime, all the ruins seen in Beneath are
from the 20th century. So either way Cornelius' recounting of

Maybe, maybe not. There are different interpetations that are

we'll never know the answer.

The original film cycle was completed, though at the last minute. They
were originally going to do more, then Jacobs decide for "Battle" to be the
last one. I think that's when they decided on the Lawgiver scene, which ends
almost exactly where "Planet" begins. Don't remember the exact date but the
Lawgiver scene takes place on like 2670 and at the beginning of "Planet",
taylor's clock says 2673. Full circle in what appears to be an add-on scene.

I completely agree that ESCAPE altered the timeline and I think there is no
question that Caesar never existed in the original timeline. But I disagree
with a lot of people over the original timeline. In ESCAPE Cornelius allows
for two possibilities in the original timeline: either the apes took over in
the 25th century or in the 20th century. Either of these can be true, but they
can't both be true. Cornelius had to be lieing about one or the other but
which? I believe that the 20th century was the truth because all of the other
movies suggest that.

The subway ruins in BENEATH and the human artifacts in the cave in PLANET are
both from the 20th century which say that the nuclear war occured in the 20th
century. And that makes sense. Since a 20th century nuclear war occured in
the altered BATTLE timeline it would also have occured in the original
timeline, hence the ruins in BENEATH and artifacts in PLANET. Both Paul Dehn
and the Corringtons had intended for the BATTLE Aldo to be the same as the
ESCAPE Aldo in the original timeline. Caesar didn't significantly change the
timing of the revolution, he hijacked its leadership from Aldo. I believe
that the timing of the revolution was linked together with the nuclear war,
which occured in the 20th century in both the original and the altered
timeline.

According to the "Behind POTA" documentary it was while Battle was
shooting that they decided it would be the last one. The Lawgiver
scenes were planned before that.

Good point about the ruins from the cave and Beneath being from the
20th Century. But I don't think there is no question that Caeser
existed in the original timeline. There are not enough facts to back
that up.
As to Cornelius' recounting of history there are several
possibilties:
1. He was lying, but the performance doesn't indicate this as well
as weak rationale for his motivation.
2. The history in the scrolls is inaccurate. The Lawgiver who wrote
them did so hundreds of years after the fact. Since the Apes a less
advanced culture you can't expect them to keep records by our
standard. Historians will tell you there are many inconsistancies in
historical records kept over hundreds of years.
3. The scrolls were written in a poetic style, not a straight
narative style. It could be that Cornelius simply interpeted the
time frame incorrectly.

Ultimately it's what one chooses to believe. I prefer to believe the apes
took over later. We've already gone in circles on this. Even if the apes
took over later, Cornelius could still dig up things from the 2oth Century.
The "Beneath" ruins look 20th Century but it's been said things are
underground that aren't underground now; the rest I can fob off to poor
production value. I don't think it's possible for anyone to render the
timelines problem-free, even Patrick. Ultimately there's things one has to
"blip" over and ignore, and decide for themselves what's satisfying. For me
the bottom line is, if in both timelines the apes took over in the 20th
Century then it didn't happen in our timeline and who cares? I've always
seen the original movie, "Beneath" and the TV show as OUR future (for
enjoyment of the movie, not something I'm rooting for) and that's how I look
at it. Etc. - - - Jeff

The last scene comes across as very conclusive so the details HAD to be
after they decided it was the last one. Maybe the Lawgiver was always in it

Don't remember the exact date but theLawgiver scene takes place on like 2670 and at the beginning of "Planet",taylor's clock says 2673.


That doesn't make any sense!
What happened to 3950 somthing?

I'm probably going to sound like a heretic for suggesting that the
ending of PLanet of the Apes has any room for improvement, but...

I think that if the first part of the above had happened it could have
been even better still. The image I have in my head is the camera
panning across the top of the statue, as per the original. Then, again
as per the original, Heston collapses to his knees, pounds his fists
into the ground and gives the "god damn you" speech. He is then picked
off by one of Zaius's gorilla snipers and drops dead on the beach,
before the camera pulls back from his corpse (the same way it pulls
back in the original) to show his dead body lying in front of the
ruined statue.

But then again I seem to like downer endings in movies.

I love his three big sci-fi films and his three more famous historical
epics (El Cid seems to be the most neglected of the three) but I seem
to recall a few years back Heston appeared on a talk show over here
and they talked about virtually nothing except Ben-Hur and Planet of
the Apes.

Like someone else said, I think it would have been the same, but ended
with "that day is upon you NOW!"

But I'd still love to see both the original version of the speech and
all the extra violence - a key moment would be Breck's death. Not only
would it be great to see, but it would also go some way toward
explaining why Breck is almost forgotten about in Battle.

There would certainly have been more satisfaction among us Apes fans
(one of the best issues of Adventure's series, in my opinion, was the
one that tied in directly to Conquest) but I really can't see it being
a boost to sales. Quite the opposite in fact. Everyone but the most
anal of Apes fans would be turned off by it and it would have been
lucky to last three or four issues.

Not necessarily - the buildings we see in ruins are from the 20th

    Actually you have a point. There is nothing in Beneath to suggest
    that the Apes took over in the 20th Century just that the nuclear
    war that destroyed New York took place then. The Apes could of rose

    That's a great analogy. I recently read that according to
    Egyptologists, there is no proof that Moses existed in any of the
    artifacts uncovered. Nor is there proof that Hebrews were ever a
    large slave force in Egypt or that there was ever a plauge the
    killed male children. However we know it happened because its
    documented in the Bible.

    I don't think that budget had anything to do with it. It's very
    clear that the intention of the filmmakers when they made Beneath
    was that the nuclear war took place in the late 20th Century.

    Yes but there are no ruins to indicate that the nuclear war was
    after the 20th century. Things like the dial phone and the city bus
    pretty indicate the time when the city was destroyed. Taylor even
    calls the bomb, "A lovely souvenier from the 20th Century".

    No Taylor took off in 1972 but in the openning scene of Planet
    the 'Earth Time' on the date meter is 2673. Which is what he said
    prove Hasslien's theory. (Wonder if he knew Hasslien became a Soap
    Opera star in the 1990s?)

    Well, Lucas said the original version of the flicks won't be on DVD, just
    the (final?) versions (I hear it's Jar Jar in "A New Hope"). They promised
    "E.T." in the original version on DVD but now it's if you buy a $70 version
    including a CD and other crap. Otherwise you only get the "special edition".
    Maybe they have to soak us because it didn't do so well in theatres.

    The new issue of "Model Kit Builder" has a POTA garage kit on the cover,
    the one with the gorilla on horseback raising his rifle in the air ("Ape
    Leader"?). Inside is an article about "bashing" the kit (making it more
    realistic).
    The Sideshow "Outer Limits" 6-Finger 12" action figure is out and the
    inside box has a picture of John Chambers doing the makeup. Chambers

    So, I'm closed minded huh? I know I am as far as Apes goes, and what it is to me, but I admit it. I'm not gonna get set back and say "Everyone's right, no one's wrong, everybody's thoughts are valid" when they're way outta whack. If I agree with something that I hadn't thought of before, or makes me see it somewhat differently, I'll say it.

    You set there and say I'm closed minded, well, look who's talking. You're as bad, if not worse, than me. You're closed minded by constantly bringing up the dial phone and the city transit to say that it happened in the 20th century. We're in the 21st century now, and I'm still seeing buses and phones, (eye glasses, and prefabricated heart valves too...) Things didn't stop on 12/31/99 and suddenly become the space age society you seem to think it has to be to prove that the Apes revolt (and "The War") happened in what I believe is the 2500's at least.

    And why is it you can't seem to say any of your points to try to say the timeline is circular rather than two seperate ones? You suddenly stoop to calling me closed minded and telling me to read a book (which I have read by the way.) I have given my theories of the timeline in here before. Some agreed, some didn't... which is perfectly fine. BUT for those that still said it was circular, more power to them. I didn't personally attack them as you seem to have to do whenever you're theories/ideas are "challenged."

    So, before you call others closed minded, look at yourself. You're every bit as closed minded as I am. The difference: When it comes to my thoughts on Apes, I'll admit I am.

    He didn't leave in 2673 -- that was just the time on the dial at the time.
    The time-dilation effect had already begun, and 700 years had already

    Cute jingle... "Sammy Davis Veetus"

    But on the serious side... I know you're correct that whatever they choose to call POTA technically is because they "say so." I also know you're right in saying that what POTA is is not the same to everyone. But I go by content, and to me some of the sh*t laid out in the comics is just a bunch of worthless crap. APES does not need to be played down to the lowest common denominator, which it was in the 70's "original" stories in the mag, and in the 90's throughout that whole comics run. To ME, there's no place for talking brains in glass bubbles, half ape/half human slaves, stupid sh*t like the "Taylorites", and yes, even the dreaded Ape-Nation on the Planet of the Apes.

    Actually, I have 2 of the British annuals, and personally, I think those stories aren't half bad. I mean they "fit in" with the basic elements of the tv series. A little "cartoonish" so to speak, but overall, considering what they are, they're not bad. They're a lot better than let's say..."Ape City".. At least the annual's stories kept a lot of the feel of the tv show and didn't take it waaaay off into right field.

    I sure do agree, but I must admit that I was (regardless) very excited to hear that someone was doing something apes in 1990.
     
    Again I say, what a shame it was such a pissy effort!

    We may never know, but seeing as the original film series WAS popular, and

    still believe they could have explored more interesting/familiar things than
    talking giant brains and the absolute garbage from the 70's stuff (ie
    someone's stupid comic strip, change faces to apes, call it POTA).

    You are absolutely right! Thankfully at least someone in here is seeing what I had said before. Just because it has talking Apes in it DOES NOT make it POTA.
