Yeah, thanks James, this is incredibly helpful. The other day I remarked 'put me down for a
half dozen copies' - now I can actually go out and do it! I'm going to email all the mail
order businesses in my neck of the woods and ask them if they plan to stock the title -
let's all get a little awareness going.

That would be very flattering although I'd much rather see the genuine, unrestored, clean
cover art. Forget Picasso and Da Vinci - give me Bob Larkin any day :0)

.html Dario, thanks for the info.Is it Ken or Tom Fowler? Tom Fowler did the
art recently on Green Arrow and looked really good.I'm not familiar
with a Ken Fowler.I think the look of the gorilla on the poster bodes
well for this series.It seems to accept that thses Apes didn't just
evolve overnight, which suggests that these creators are going to do
this right, with an adult and serious approach to the classic saga.The
cover of issue 18 of Marvel's mag has a similar bull gorilla going mad
and, let's face it, had effects and budget allowed, the movies would
have bulked up their gorillas---much as Tim Burton did. How these Apes
evolved has always been a hot topic and I'm really looking forward to
seeing how this comic turns out.John, Scrolls. <.html

Thanks for the info Dario, I was 'removed' from the DG so wasn't aware of any of this.

This sounds great! I'd like to see an anthology format with varying length stories (rather
than a single on-going story line). That many artists are involved may mean I'm going to
get my wish.

This just gets better and better :0). I can't blame the guy for not saying much, comic
liscenses are riddled with all kinds of legal mumbo jumbo. Until everyone involved has
given thier approval, speaking prematurely can often spell disaster.

We will certainly ask the question but don't be surprised if Scrolls is asked to respect the
same level of confidentiality as Ken.

Section:
http://movies.groups.yahoo.com/group/pota/files/FOX%20Letters/
I believe the letters were written by Rory & Cougar for the 35th
Anniversary editions.
The addresses are old and I'm not sure if those people are still at FOX
or in the same positions.

Hey I can't thank you enough NOW IF I could just Find that January 1970 Cosmopolitan Magazine with a VERY HOT Pic of Linda Harrison on it I could Die a happy Apefan! lol Seriously I wanna also thank DAVE B. for Posting the Pictures of My Ape Kits and a few others (non ape) You can see my son TAYLOR inspecting the Model of his Namesake! lol so as I was sayin' before I/we just recently moved and now the Wife is happy cause instead of filling up our livingroom with my Museum Of Horrors I/We actually got a place with an Office attached.Three of the four Walls or Windowed (hence the Name for these kinds of Rooms are often called Florida Rooms) it's great I have my Huge "Forbidden Planet" Saucer Suspended from the Ceiling,and my Figure Kits on
shelves Around the Room.The ONLY downside is this Office catches ALL the Sunlight which can Play HELL on some of my Posters and Collectables,But I've hung up some thin Curtins just to Diffuse the Direct Sun. A couple of HUNDRED Promo and Political PINS hanging up helps Block out the Sun too! lol (YES I HAVE TWO APES PINS From A Video Store They're Advertising the Remake BUT I also have an ACTUAL FUR COVERED Pin with the ORIGINAL POTA Logo in Silver Plate! I love that one it was for the ORIGINAL 5 Films.As I mentioned before IIRC I'd told you guys I was a Theater Projectionist and I worked at a lot of OLD "Inner City" Former Movie Palaces that were Beautiful in the 1930's BUT now they ONLY showed Films like "SHAFT" or "TEXAS CHAINSAW" BUT this was in the Late 80's early 90's so in my Area (Washington D.C. and VA) these Classic Theaters are all exstinct. BUT
before the went I was welcomed to Grab all the ONE-Sheet (Posters) and Lobby Cards I could EVER WANT!! It was Beautiful In that HUGE (two Station Wagon Loads) AFTER making sure to Shake out ANY pests lol I began to Inventory what I had OF INTEREST TO YOU GUYS was LOBBY CARDS to APES 1 and 4 and Presskits to Apes 1,2,4 and 5 (I dunno why no Escape From?) Anyhoo, So I HAD (my dumb Ass Sold them! for $20.00 Years ago) I had those Tall Thin Presskits that had the Ads AND the offer for the Door Posters. I remember One of the PB's had an Orange Cover and the Other Yellow. Hey But I gotta tell ya' One Funny thing I noticed In the PB for "Conquest" (Which in my Opinion has the Crappiest Poster of All The Films,) there was 4 or 5 B&W Stills,One of these is A shot of Gov. Breck (Don Murry) On his Knees in front of Ceaser as a Bunch of Gorillas look about to Crack his Skull with
their Rifle Butts. Well This Still MUST have been from a Rehersal Cause there in Roddys Hand/Paw IS A PINT CARTON OF MILK! With A STRAW noless! I swear this is true and IF you looked closer in the Background there was another Ape Actor SANS THE MASK But still with the Dark Greasepaint around the Eyes. Yet This was a Pic to be run in Ads or Reviews Seems Strange to me. Btw It Seems to me that of ALL the Apes Movie Memrobillia out there CONQUEST seems to be the EASIEST (and cheapest) to Obtain. Again it's probly cause it's such a Crappy lookin' Poster. lol Well I've bored you long enough But lemmie just say Again my thanks and YEAH TIM OR MARK I WOULD LIKE THE "Marcus" AND FOR SURE the "Taylor" for my Son.

Elaine, By rights, all publicity material remains the property of the issuing studio and in
theory should be returned. Because of the cost and admin involved this rarely happens so
it's usually down to the discretion of the theatre.
Most of it probably goes to a member of staff and is then sold on eBay.
My local cinema stores them for a year and then has a charity sale, selling posters for
about .50p each. ($1)

.html Elaine - All a Theater's One-Sheets (or Posters) and Standees (Big
Cardboard Signs) are ALWAYS taken out to a "Nice Farm Somewhere in
The Country to spend The Rest of their Days Frolicking with Other
Posters" Uh Never Mind That's actually what My Mudda told me happened
with my Pet Cat! lol Actually It's JUST what Dave Said! I USED to GET
EVERYTHING from the Cinema I worked For. Hell when I was only a 15
yearold (1980) I used to get in ALL kinds of Trouble for making Long
Distance Calls to FOX,Warner Bros (for Superman 2 Stuff) Coloumbia
Pics etc. And at First I lied and said I was a Legit Reviewer (I knew
the Right words to say) BUT then I started Tellin' them the Truth and
I actually ended up Developing Freindships with these Folks (I
haven't Obtained ANYTHING from them in awhile Like 20 years!) BUT
Eventually Back then my Local Newspaper Did an Article on me and my
Collecting! it's Title "TRASH MADE TREASURE" Etc Etc It was Through
my Love of the Apes Films I began Collecting Posters,Lobbies Etc See
at age 14 I was Cute (That's what they Told me! But you can see My
Son in the "Hobbies" Pohto Section of this Site! He looks JUST like
me! lol Anyhoo So I started calling the Local Theaters in my Town
Rich Va. and Finally I met the Great guy who REALLY advanced my
Collecting,A great Man named mr. Ray Bently in my town and all over
the Country Actually Mr. Bently Did the Promotional Work for a
Theater Chain (now Long Gone) called Neighborhood Theaters Inc. and
one of the Managers I used to bother All the time Got me in touch
with Him (Although I don't think the BIG Cinema Chains do it this way
anymore) BUT at the Time ALL the Advertising Posters,Standees,Etc
went to the Chain's Home Office then out to the Individual Theaters.
So Ray invited me oneday to come on up to the NTI Offices where he
let me Go through a Huge room full of File Cabinets and Take ANYTHING
I wanted!!! Since I was Nervous I wrote down a list of about a Dozen
Titles I wanted At the Top of my list was the First Five Apes Movies!
well Long Story Longer lol Ray Told me to "Have at it BUT IF there
was any Files that ONLY had an "Ad Slick" I had to leave AT LEAST
one" these Ad Slicks were Sheets that had the Original Newspaper Ads
on em' so JUST IN CASE they EVER played that Film Again He would
Submitt these to the Local Paper. Anyhoo I started in the Letter "P"
Drawer and There was a POTA Set of COLOR Photos (you can see these on
Goatley's Site) A Pressbook and a Small Poster (Insert Card) the same
for "Beneath" and the other Three Nuthin on Escape though BUT I gotta
mention at that time I also got 5 or 6 of the "REVENGE of the Jedi"
Posters BEFORE Lucas decided to change the Title to "RETURN Of The
Jedi" lol I got a BUNCH of sets of Empire Strikes Back Color Lobby
Cards (I've since sold ALL but one set!) and Alien But these were
just things I picked up cause they were ALL over the guys Floor
(literly) As for my List I was lookin' for Film Titles that Mattered
to me like Star Trek (Got Several) or Escape From New York (One of my
All Time Favorites Although I can't tell ya' Why!lol) and Even my Mom
had me Askin for a Couple (Cleopatra ,Gone With The Wind Stuff Chicks
Liked lol) The Collection at this Guys office went back to about 1954
Cause that's when this Company bought these Theaters. So a few years
later I ended up getting a Job as Projectionist at the VERY SAME
Theater Chain and I worked there for Years Till they finally Sold out
to Another Company and I Moved on.Sorry for such a long Answer but I
love talkin' about the Good Ol' Days and Frankly after 13 Years of

.htmlI was going to post a correction, but you already caught me. :(
It is indeed "Tom" Fowler. Don't know why I typed "Ken".
I was also going to correct the date as I went back and checked that
too. Someone mentioned that the new comics may be appearing at the end
of this year, not 2006.
As for me, I'm trying not prejudice my feelings towards the comics
based on what part of the timeline is targeted. While I would enjoy
any good story, I've always felt that the "Conquest" years are not as
well represented, so I think I would enjoy seeing that in this series.
For all we know, it may not even be a single story arc, but more an
anthology of very different stories. Wouldn't that be something!
Got a question for those people here who regularly buy comics in
advance. How early do dealers have a chance to take order? Should I
really be inquiring now, or it it too early. I've seen a issues
of "Preview" (or some title like that) that the dealers get (and sell)
showing up and coming comics, but I'm not sure how early are the
advance notices, and more importantly how early can dealers actually
order specific comics.

Actually My Paasion for about the last 10 years is Building those
Model Kits. the Term is "Garage Kits" Again you can see a few in the
Photos or Files Section Right here! For this past Christmas the Wifey
gave me this Beautiful and HUGE Model of Ol' Chuck Heston
aka "Taylor" as Two Gorillas are Restraining him! Then For my B-Day
(in March) I got this Companion Piece called the "Mutant Leader"
Which can Also be seen in the Photos or Files Section HERE! (Again my
thanks to Dave for posting those I Can Barely Work one of These
Computer Contraptions! lol) I used to Build all the Apes Model Kits
as a Kid and Bought them All again when they got Rereleased a few
Years ago but then about 12 Years ago I found out about All these
guys (and Gals) who grew up with these old Models and Decided because
of their Interest and Sculpting Talent to Make NEW Beautiful Kits of
their Favorite Subjects (Including LOTS of APES! lol) And btw I
enclose a Couple of Great sites Where you can go Look and Chat about
ALL these things Please check it out!

I've just got to say that I remain in awe of Greg's stamina on this project. I hate scanning, I
find it desperately dull and tedious and I would have climbed the wall long ago. Greg has
hung in there, and as regular as clockwork has been adding to this valuable archive.
I enjoy getting my weekly nostalgia fix when I see a new issue posted. I never cared for
those UK covers at the time, they always seemed - to a 13 year old - the very poor cousins
of thier US counterparts. But seeing them again now, 30 odd years later makes me feel like
a teen again, if only for a minute or so.
Please keep them coming, Greg, I'm loving it.
Oh, and can we please see the return of your made up taglines. "Issue 41! The sense

Michael also noted on the DG that this issue was lacking an exciting introduction by me, for which I apologize. When I noticed that Hunter had posted the latest issue a little earlier than normal, I made a quick announcement rather than take the time to review the issue for anything worth noting.
Upon review I did notice that this issue is noteworthy in that it has far fewer apes than your typical issue. There are no apes in the story itself, as this part of the adaptation has Bent being questioned by the mutant council. There is an ape on the cover, and a photo of the TV Zaius graces the letter column, but that's it. So the tagline for this issue could read:
Man and his descendants take center-stage in this virtually ape-free installment of the thrilling adaptation of Beneath the Planet of the Apes!

'Godfather Part IV'? 'Planet of the Apes' is pristine. When I go to wakes, I never look at the
body. I like to remember family/friends as the way they were. 'Planet of the Apes' is an
old friend to me. I like bits and pieces of the (and the word came down from Fox) sequels,
but watching them takes away some of the magic from the original for me. I look at the
TV show as a whole different animal and I'm a big fan of it. And I'm not just saying that to

I remember when I first read that, I think I was around nine years old, and it made the hairs on the back of my neck -- don't know how many hairs I actually had -- stand on end.
Oddly, the first copy of Boulle's novel I got from a library was missing the final chapter. It wouldn't be until a couple years later that I finally read the entire book!

That was what really made me feel cheated by Burton's "surprise" ending.
It wasn't a surprise to anyone who'd read the book.
Not only that, but it was so badly done. Ed Wood couldn't have done it worse on a bad day. The whole movie was just one big bastardization of the entire concept and, really, I think truthfully, it's buried the franchise. It was a total disaster.
Thankfully, the original movie seems unblemished by the thing.

.html I've recently started collecting the marvel UK weekly apes comics
but can anyone clarify which are reprints. I'm only really
interested in collecting the stories rather than than every comic
ever published, at least at this stage.
I'm aware that there are several series; US "Curtis" monthlies, UK
weekly, US "Adventures on POTA" and UK Mighty World Of Marvel Feat.
POTA.
I know that the US "Adventures on POTA" reprints the movie
adaptations from the weekly / monthly titles so I guess my questions
are:
1) Is EVERYTHING from the US "Curtis" monthlies reprinted in the UK
weeklies?
2) Is there any original material in the UK Mighty World Of Marvel
or is this just reprints?
3) Any tips where I can buy any of this stuff other than ebay?
(bearing in mind that I live in the UK)
Thanks in advance,
Adam
PS. Great DG - look forward to spending lots of time here! <.html

.html Adam, welcome to the group.Taking your questions in order
1.Curtis was just the distribution company and those Apes mags are pure
Marvel.Nearly all of the strips, bar a couple of pages here and there,
were reprinted in the UK weekly,sometimes twice.The best checklist has
just appeared courtesy of Rob Kirby in Volume3 of the Comic Book Artist
Collection (www.twomorrows.com)
2.There WAS an Apes strip that only appeared in the UK comics.Issues 23-
30 feature the Apeslayer strip, a cut and paste adaption using Marvel's
War of the Worlds/Killraven strip--once seen, never forgotten, and
reviewed by Rob in the CBA volume 3.Also, the UK comics had some
excellent colour posters(mainly TV Series, although not all of the US
Mag articles found their way into the UK comic.
3.The US mags are expensive, and the UKs are creeping up.30TH Century
Comics usually have the weeklies--tel 020 8788 2052, web,
www.thirtiethcentury.free-online.co.uk.They're based in Putney.There
are some trade paperback collections of Planet, Beneath and Terror, but
they're pretty rare.

I will see it if you are in it baby. Seriously, no, I would not go see it. Would you go see 'Godfather Part IV'? 'Planet of the Apes' is pristine. When I go to wakes, I never look at the body. I like to remember family/friends as the way they were. 'Planet of the Apes' is an old friend to me. I like bits and pieces of the (and the word came down from Fox) sequels, but watching them takes away some of the magic from the original for me. I look at the TV show as a whole different animal and I'm a big fan of it. And I'm not just saying that to get on your good side. Okay people, lay into me.
I can see your point. The original movie is a classic and the sequels don't hold up to it.

.html Elaine, I would argue that the sequels DO hold up to the original. The
original is not a perfect film--the humour elements are jarring, I
think---but you won't find me saying it's not a classic.It's THE
classic! Beneath, however, is a really, really deep(no pun intended!)
film and Escape is an amazing movie, a self contained adventure/love
story that never drags, never bores and always makes me think.Conquest
is my least favourite but is still excellent---light years ahead of
the Lucas sequels in tone and story.Battle aint perfect but it's still
a gripping movie, in my view.All three have excellent plots, excellent
screenplays, excellent direction, scores and acting.They are also, in
my humble opinion, not just rip off sequels but solid tales in their
own right, adding to, not stealing from, the original.If one franchise
ever got its sequels right, Apes is it, in my view.I love 'em all!

I enjoy all the sequels(Beneath is my least favorite) but still feel the original is a classic
movie that is even better than many of the movies today. If the sequels were not made, I would still want comics and novels etc about pota. Conquest will always be one of my favorite movies(despite it's flaws) because it is the first pota movie I saw and I was hooked.
Next to the original, Battle is my favorite despite being aimed at kids, because of the variety
of characters and the story. I feel Escape is a good movie but I like the movies with more apes in them. Elaine

No, I think the reason you've never seen it
is because it was on at 4:00 in the morning.
I wouldn't have seen it either, but it was on
right after Blade Runner. They showed three
episodes back to back, The Beasts, Evolution
Revolution, and The Machines. Some of the
clips were from movies I'd never heard of, and
looked pretty good, so I'm glad I taped it, so
I can look for them and check them out.

And I'm sure everyone wishes David a happy birthday.
I do, but not because of that unmentionable movie, but instead because of another movie called MORGAN! (1966). Anyone here ever see it?

Thanks Rory...I never knew the size .....I've got a
40" by 60" Beneath poster and halfsheets for Escape
and Battle...the odd size (not 30x40 onsheet) are
harder to find...\

I have a couple 40x60s of PLANET, but they're in rough shape. Those size posters were mostly displayed at Drive-Ins and those places didn't take care of things too well. American Half-sheets are 28x22, half the size of American 1-sheets (27x41). I like Half-sheets because they look nice displayed. 1-sheets seem a bit much for the inside of a home.
The 30x40s that you mention are "British Quads." I really like the British Quad to PLANET, but I've never been able to get one -- and now I've lost interest. The collecting fever has passed.

.html.html .html20th Century Fox today confirmed that it is supporting Blu-ray Disc, rather than HD-DVD, in the upcoming high-definition format war. The move has been expected for almost a year - last October the studio joined the Blu-ray Disc Association as an advisory member, but said they had yet to decide which format they would ultimately support (Fox is, of course, also a member of the DVD Forum
). Now their preference for the format is official. With their decision, Fox joins Sony, MGM and Buena Vista as the major Blu-ray Disc supporting studios. By comparison, the HD-DVD camp includes Warner Bros., Universal and Paramount.
In addition to its greater data storage capacity and features that Fox considers to be a greater technical innovation beyond the existing DVD spec, the main reason Fox ultimately decided to support Blu-ray Disc over HD-DVD is that the Blu-ray Disc spec calls for a particular form of renewable copy protection, which is considered more robust. Fox and other studios had called for the HD-DVD format to include the same renewable copy protection, but forces within the HD-DVD camp apparently believed that it was too expensive and unnecessary. Despite this announcement, there's no specific word yet as to which titles will be among Fox's initial Blu-ray Disc releases when the format officially launches early next year.
So.... eventually you'll all be buying POTA on blu-ray DVD for High Definition, maybe in 2008!
