Not sure, but the SNL FAQ's says

the game show host was Bill Murray.

Oh, so that's probably the classic cast...They were my favorites...But
what, you may ask, does all of this have to do with Planet of the
Apes?...Well, the original question mentioned Ricardo Montalban...=)

Hello all...I've just added a new, estended Planet of the Apes
Timeline in the Files section. It's based partly on the Hasslien
Observed Timeline which can be found at <a
href=http://www.goingfaster.com/icarus/tableofcontents.html">this
site.</a> It also has a bunch of stuff that I added to make it more
entertaining and optimistic. Enjoy!

Hello all...I've just added a Planet of the Apes timeline in the Files
section. It's based partly on the Hasslein Observed Timeline which can
be found at the All Things Icarus website, but has a bunch of stuff
that I've added. Hope you enjoy it!

Joe O'Brien and Ty Templeton have been nominated for a highly prized
Shuster award.If you go to www.shusterawards.com and follow the voting
links, you can vote for them.They're doing a fabulous job on the new
Apes comic, so let's get behind them and help Apes win awards
again.John, Scrolls.

Thanks Matt! Very entertaining. Members can find the timeline here:

Mike,

Who did you get the head from and how much are they?

Fantastic job on the custom.
I love that you attempted to do it as Mego might have. I think you
succeeded 100%

The head comes from here:

http://heads.tigersbonemachine.com/

under "Various Heads"

the sculpt is by someone that goes by the handle ABMAC on the Mego list but
he also might be a member here (speak up and take a bow if you are).

The head is available unpainted for $15 and it can also be bought painted
(don't know how much more it is I painted my own)

Best,
Mike

Two sites - deepdiscountdvd.com , and bestbuy.com have pulled the
Planet of the Apes Ultimate collection from their listings. Are they
selling out, release delayed, or has Fox scrapped the collection?

.html.htmlAmazon.com still has it for pre-order and includes this bit of info:

Each Planet of the Apes - The Ultimate DVD Edition is stamped with a limited edition number, 1-10,000. Numbers 1-100 have been stocked by Amazon.com and will be shipped randomly to customers who order this item. Please note we can't guarantee you will receive one of the lower numbers in this series.

ONLY IF YOU'RE CANADIAN! One little wrinkle my stupidity missed was
that the rules seem to say Canadians only.My vote seemed to be
accepted, however, so it may be worth a go.Either that or a French
surname is enough? Or maybe we could all move to Canada--I'm sure we
could all bunk down with Terry? John, Scrolls des Singes.

Hey Matt,

It's a braver man than I that has the courage to post a new vision of
the timeline for public comment. Y'see Matt, the problem is that if
you take 400 Ape fans and ask them to create thier own timeline you
are going to end up with 400 different versions all tailor made to the
individual.

Your timeline is certainly entertaining and well considered, you've
given it a lot of thought and for that I applaud you but it is nothing
at all like the timeline I envisage and I'm sure the same is true for
the majority of others. But that's not a criticism on my part and
please, don't take it as such. If this is how it works for you then
it's just as valid as any other that has been published here or elsewhere.

Thanks for sharing,
Dave

I get unpainted.  That Virgil's hair is too red.

And is it just me, or does the Taylor head

look more like Brent than it does Heston?

I think I'd just paint a beard on the Heston

head and use the other for a Brent head.

I just got an
additional Gold Key Beneath comic with a larger
purchase on ebay and was wondering.....has anyone
scanned that and posted it? Is it on Hunter's site? I
would gladly scan and send it on to someone else for
cleanup and posting if there is interest....the style
is cool and accurate (except for Zira's burgandy
clothes!)

No, it's not. If you don't mind scanning them, I'd love to get it
added. Just contact me off-list when you've scanned them.

Hunter

Yes, but were those eels JELLIED?I can just about relate to normal eels
normally cooked, as they're still, basically fish. Semi civilised
Cockneys like Ballard's lot go a lot further with their eels. They
slice them and kind of pickle them in a putrid piss based jelly and,
almost unbelievably then voluntarily place this pukey mess in their
mouths.The English drive towards Empire was fuelled solely by the need
to find edible food somewhere.And please, if you value your sanity,
don't get Alan Maxwell started on his Friday haggis, brown sauce and
square sausage sandwich.I feel sick just thinking about it. John,
Scrolls.

Will do....they really are different than all the
other comics we've been discussing....

Did anyone happen to catch the POTA spoof on Family Guy Sunday night?
Peter had managed to get one of the feet from the Statue of Liberty and
had it delivered to Spooner Street in order to stop Quagmire from getting
married (Quagmire has a foot fetish). Later, when Mayor Adam West (yes,
'Mayor') came upon the foot later in the episode, he launched into the
"You maniacs!!". "You blew it up!!" routine.

Commander McBragg also appeared in The Simpsons that night, so it was
60's pop culture reference heaven for me.

I've just uploaded an ad that has appeared in the UK sci-Fi mag SFX.

There's still confusion over here in the UK, with no definite
statement as to what the region 2 version does or does not include.
Some advertisers (like this one) make no mention of "Return' or the
extended "Battle', others do - but I get the feeling these are just
cut-and-paste descriptions from US trade ads.

If anyone wants a hi-res version of the scan just mail me off-list.

Interesting interview! I'm looking forward to the trade paperback
already.I so, so hope that this series continues beyond issue 6. It's
better than we could have dreamed and there are so many stories that
could be told.Everyone go out and buy a spare and send it to a friend,
spread the word. Thanks for an excellent insight, James. John, Scrolls.

If they are no longer offering the item it is very likely that they have
sold out their quantity to pre-orders.

Amazon.com is still taking pre-orders with over 500 orders all ready
confirmed plus other retailers like FYE and Musicland are planning on
carrying the item in their stores.  Smaller local outlets and catalog
companies (on-line and published) are buying their product from one of
the many distributors that have also placed orders with us.

So you know, FOX is out of the Ultimate Collection.  As of last
week, we have taken orders for all the units in the US and are almost
completely allocated for the units in Canada.

We are excited to see that accounts are taking the Legacy Boxset and the
single discs.  Many retailers are placing orders for those and hopefully
people will be jazzed to get these remastered versions.

I'm jazzed about getting the Legacy box set, but OH THOSE COVERS!  OH! OOOOOOHHHHH!

Those people at Fox got a lot of esplainin' to do!

Peabody's Improbable History, which was done by Jay Ward's studio. The
same people responsible for Rocky & Bullwinkle, Fractured Fairytales,
Dudley Do-Right, and Aesop & Son.

Tennessee Tuxedo was from Total Televison studios, who are probably
best know for Underdog, but were also responsible for King Leonardo &
Odie, The Hunter, Klondike Kat, Go-Go Gophers. You can find a bit of
history about the studio here:

http://www.toonopedia.com/peabody.htm

though there's also a book out that goes into much more detail:

Here's a question I'd like to throw out.

Since the cancellation of `Return to the POTA' what, for you, has been
the most satisfying production that's furthered the franchise?

Now, if I'd said `important' love it or hate it, it would have to be
Burton's remake - which is why I'm saying `satisfying'. There's been
lots of hits and misses over the years: Comics, Cds, books, toys,
chatrooms and websites, I'm sure we all have our favorites

For me, it would be a close tie of the `Behind' documentary and Joe's
`Revisited' book, but maybe for you it's something quite different.
Perhaps the Sideshow or Medicom figures? Perhaps the Archive or
Rittenhouse cards?

Anyone?

I doubt anyone here would recall an old English actor who appeared in movies in the 30s and 40s.  His name was Sir C. Aubrey Smith and he was in many, many movies, but you might remember him as the Colonel who was grandfather of Shirley Temple in WEE WILLIE WINKIE (1937).

There have been two things that have been the most satisfying for me.

The first was the news in 1997 that the complete score for PLANET was going to be released on CD.  As a huge Jerry Goldsmith fan -- and PLANET being my favorite film -- I was floating on air when I read this news.  Nothing since has really equalled it.

The second thing was the release of the 35th Anniversary DVD.  Oh, it wasn't all that I wanted it to be and in many ways a little disappointing, but after years of requesting such a thing from Fox on laserdisc, and after suffering through so many bad transfers of PLANET on VHS and laserdisc, to finally get the movie in a fine anamorphic DVD transfer, and with a very fine Dolby Digital 5.1 stereo soundtrack, well, I was finally satisfied.

The recent books, the Sideshow and Medicoms, "Behind", the fanzines and
e-groups...I prefer the new stuff to the old stuff, saving me a lot of
money. All this makes the Burton movie worth it. Most satisfying? Besides
the groups and fanzines, which go beyond mere "product", I'd say "Behind". I
love a good "Behind". - - - Jeff

   For me, it is the Sideshow figures and the new comic. Elaine

I'd say on a wider scale it would be the Medicom
figures because they were out there on the open market
for the public......
Personally I like Russo's book.....it answered may
questions I had had for years~

Greg, Marvel's UK division was a curious thing at the best of
times.Thet were often a week out out of synch with each other, plugging
stories as 'next week' when they's already happened. Years ago I tried
to contact Neil Tennant, the guy from the Pet Shop Boys, as he was
editor at Marvel UK for a while.I wanted to find out who was
responsible for the ridiculous/inspired decision to 'create'
Apeslayer.His personal assistant telephoned me back to say he never
worked on that comic, which is odd, as his name is in the small print!

.html.htmlDirtfishMovieNews:

Oscar winning actor Benicio Del Toro is to play The Wolf Man!

Del Toro, 39, has signed a deal with Universal Pictures to star in the
movie which will be a new version of the horror classic.

The Wolf Man is set in Victorian England and is about a man (Del Toro)
who returns from America to his ancestral homeland, gets bitten by a
werewolf and begins a hairy moonlight existence.

Andrew Kevin Walker (Seven) is working on a script.  Universal are
hoping for a summer 2008 release.

Del Toro is currently filming Che Guevara biopic Guerrilla for Oscar
winning director Steven Soderbergh.



Fox made a movie called CHE in 1969 starring Omar Shariff.  Michael Wilson wrote the screenplay!

Anyway, I love the Wolf Man.  Wanna take bets this new version will suck?

-- Rory<.html<.html

They probably chose Del Toro so they could save money on the make-up. He won't need
any.

I'd have to say the 30th Anniversary VHS Box Set. Not only do I closely
associate it with the AMC Labor Day Marathon in 1998 where I spent most
of the weekend glued to the television set and recording stuff on VHS
(the movies were also heavily programmed for the entire month of
September BTW), but I finally had a descent version of the BENEATH TV
spot (with the arrow scrolling down the screen) that I always used to see
on The 4:30 Movie. Of course, Fox claimed that it was the theatrical
trailer (which were already released on Laserdisc), but this is one
mistake I'm glad they made.

Closely behind that would be the proper releases of the CD soundtracks:
PLANET, BENEATH, and CONQUEST/BATTLE (in which yours truly is listed in
the special thanks section). :-D

The Wolf Man was my second favorite Universal Pictures monster, when
I was growing up...Unfortunately, you're probably right -- this will
most likely suck...It is a pretty sure bet that they will totally
miss the poignancy of the original...

G

I think it was the 30th anniversary screening held in Los Angeles in
1997. Heston, Roddy, Linda, Buck, and Kim attended. I didn't get into
the screening, but witnessing the stars together entering the theatre
and posing for press was awesome....

I'm about a stoked as I can get on it.  Which isn't as much as I thought.

It's a very, very tough call. The Sideshow figures are stunning.The
Behind documentary is still the best such behind the scenes disc I've
ever seen, truly definitive.The Medicoms were also amazing.The cd
release of the TV Series soundtrack was a massive, very welcome
surprise.Likewise the excellent Revoulution comic.However, after much
thought, the one single thing that brought the biggest smile to my
face, and still does, is Greg and co's homemade trading card
images.That project, for me, was simply a dream come true, brilliantly
executed and absolutely spot on with it's choice of images and text.It
gets my vote. John Scrolls.

I don't understand. Is there some animosity between the group and
Eric Greene? I think he's a cool guy.

I'm a big fan of Eric Greene's thesis. I really enjoyed his review of Burton's film, 'A Tale of
Two Planets' which I put in the files section about a year and a half ago. Check it out.

Anyone recall the Saturday morning sci-fi show 'Space Academy' with Jonathan Harris? Eric
Greene played the kid, Loki. I will use any excuse to drop a bad saturday morning tv show
reference.

As one of the Moderators of POTA I believe I can unequivocally state
that there is no problem between the group and anyone in POTA
fandom...As for individual members' feelings about others in fandom, I
cannot address...
