Dear James,

This sounds fantastic. Can the dvd be shipped to the
United Kingdom? If so, what would be the total cost?

Thanks

Well I was just about to have breakfast and that vision made me lose
my appetite;-) BTW I'm guessing white.

I think the point has been made here on both sides. So play nice or
no Blue Peter for the rest of the week.

And if anyone doesn't know what Blue Peter is, just ask.

However, there was one prop from a previous film used in Conquest. It was a small control module with three buttons from Talyor's spacecraft. Taylor uses it here to activate his suspended animation chamber.

It is again used by Dodge to blow the hatch.

In Conquest it is used briefly by Kolp to set off the alert when the anomaly is discovered in Ape Management's records.

All I ask (hope) is that no one tries to sell it on eBay (or anywhere
else, for that matter). Buying a disc for $2 literally pays for
nothing but the DVD, the mailer, and postage. No profit is derived
from that offer.

As the 'toons disc said, "Made by the fans, for the fans."

I hope you all enjoy it. And again, my thanks to all of those who
contributed material, whether it or was used or not.

We don't but I'm sure everyone would support such an addition to the

Since we've been getting enquiries from members in the UK I thought I'd pass this along.

We have made arrangements for someone to handle distribution in the UK and Europe. However, that person will be on vacation until September 5th. Instructions will be annouced at that time.

In the meantime, for those who can't wait until then, Greg P. has generously offered to fulfill any requests from the UK. Just send $3 to his paypal account: urko3085@... For all requests inside the U.S. the cost is still $2.

That's a bit of a stretch, James.  Fox probably had dozen such items in the prop department, probably left over from the Irwin Allen shows.

What CONQUEST does have are ape suits from the crew members of VOYAGE TO THE BOTTOM OF THE SEA and, I suspect, the Ape Management set, where the apes are conditioned, was made from elements left over from the Control Room set from FANTASTIC VOYAGE.  I do know that that set was also used in Arthur Jacobs' 1969 film THE CHAIRMAN.

Well, Irwin Allen was well known for using whatever he could glom from other movies. Look how many times he reused footage from The Lost World (which was supposed to be stop motion by Willis O'Brien, but Fox wanted to rush it due to the success of Journey to the Center of the Earth). There is an episode of Land of the Giants with Malachi Throne as the leader of a race of Giants who live underground, in it is the entire Mutant Interrogation/Taylor Cell from Beneath! It's just painted blue and shot from behind.

I wish I could remember the damn title of that episode!

For those who haven't purchased the Legacy set, after four returns to
Circuit City of flawed presses of Beneath and Conquest, all sticking in
the same spot, today I returned the discs to Best Buy and swapped them
out, and as I suspected, Circuit City Legacy Sets are B stock flawed
presses, Best Buy (barcode ending in 50) are not. Beware the Circuit
City Press.

Will the new release of the live action tv series have new packaging,
or the same bland crap as last time? The Australian video release years
ago actually managed to utilise the opportunity an image-rich series
presented and created some excellent boxes.I was looking at one of the
Conquest lobby cards the other night and Ricardo is shown in one with
his microphone taped to his sweater! I'm convinced there was a
conspiracy to use the worst images possible for Apes!Is there a good
biography for Ricardo? John, Scrolls.

In the French lobby set from CONQUEST there is a nighttime shot of some apes on the roof of a building. In the background is a well lit sign that says "Century City."

Well the results here seem pretty clear. Most want to see a sixth
sequel to the originals. Least favorite was a sequel to the remake.
No surprize there.

How 'bout one?
We're older...
Wiser...
The past is no place for the future...
Ben Affleck may be a great script writer, but his acting sucks...

REALLY THINK, here...

Will ther ever be another Charelton Heston?
U-h-h, no...
Roddy McDowall?
Kim Hunter?
Natalie Trundy?
Try to take Eric Braden from Y&R...
Aldo Ray?
I think he's dead or very retired...
CGI's are out of the question...
I like my apes real...
And OUR apes are rare...

Take a good look at the 2001 and overlook the script...
They were great...
The makeup was real and there was not much "Tim Burton" glitter
except for Thade's fathers' house, which seemed to drip over a
dismal cliffside...
I know, I know..., I'm sticking up for it.
But, c'mon...!
Somebody had the balls to step up...
The best makeup artist, the best costumer...
For Christ's sake, it took ten years to launch...
It all began in '91...
The door has been opened, now let's do something with it.
Rory, I know you're reading this and cringeing...
I feel ya, dude...
But Zira and Cornedlius are dead and Caesar is far from
resurrected...
Can you see the future?
Narrowmindedness never got anyone far...
Broaden that horizon...
Open those doors to a new millenium of apes, but for Semos'
sake, shut those humans up!!!

> The best makeup artist,

Too bad he was hamstrung by time and Burton's stupid "sexy female
apes" edict.

> the best costumer...

Whatever. I hated the costumes from the very first picture I ever saw.

> For Christ's sake, it took ten years to launch...
> It all began in '91...

And yet, what was actually filmed was thrown together at the last
minute, with regard to absolutely nothing but an opening date that had
already been announced.

That episode first aired in early 1969, just prior to BENEATH going into production.  The set was originally the Grand Central Station set from HELLO, DOLLY!  You can see Barbra Streisand walk through it at the beginning on the film.  It was in the process of becoming the BENEATH set when "Land of the Giants" shot there.  The restaurant set shown later in the film became St. Patrick's Cathedral in BENEATH.

The image on the FOX website is the same as the previous release. But
then you never know if that may just be a mistake by the site.

I got my DVDs at Best Buy and never had a problem with them. Is there
any price difference between the Best Buy & Circuit City sets?

Subject: [POTA] POTA Rarities DVD

This is a very special announcement. Our good friend Hunter has done it again and put together a Planet of the Apes Rarities DVD.  The DVD contains:

• Bumpers & Promos
  • Sci Fi Channel Apes Week bumpers (intros) by Roddy McDowall
  • Sci Fi Channel TV Series bumpers by Roddy McDowall
  • AMC TV 30th Anniversary Apes bumpers with McDowall, Heston, and
    Kim Hunter
  • The "Old Galen" bumpers for the TV Series movies
  • Some promo spots from the Space channel
• Retrospectives
  • That's Hollywood, narrated by Tom Bosley
  • Movie Magic
  • TVOntario's Going Ape
  • Extra segment
  • Rule the Planet excerpt that covers the originals
  • A brief Space special excerpt
• Actors
  • "Biography: Roddy McDowall" excerpt
  • "Biography: Charlton Heston" excerpt
  • Charlton Heston on "Later" with Greg Kinnear
• Spoofs
  • Charlton Heston on SNL
  • Serta commercial
• MEGO Commercials
  • All six of them in better quality than I've ever seen them

This a wonderful collection of rare moments and a must for the DVD collection of any serious POTA fan. And there are two ways you can get your own copy:

1. Send me a blank DVD-R or DVD+R with a self addressed stamped envelope (email me privately for my address. Or if that is too much trouble:
2. Send $2 to Greg P. via his PayPal account: urko3085@sbcglobal. net. If you don't have a PayPal account email Greg at the same email to arrange to send him the $2 by Money Order.

That's all you have to do. Well worth the time & cost.

Once again thanks to Hunter for putting this DVD together and to everyone who contributed all the rare gems from their own video collections to make this happen.

The week of release, Circuit City had a lower sale price than any
other retailer that I saw (other than Costco). Circuit City boxes,
barcode endind in 00, are now showing up @ Best Buy with barcode
stickers applied over them ending in 50, so beware those as well.
The way I could tell the press was somehow varied (besides the Best
Buy not having the flaw) was there was more of a green highlight
around the ape eye on the beneath disc artwork, there was no green
highlight on CC, only blue in the artwork. Circuit City's standard
price is higher than best buys, though. $39.99 vs. $37.99.

Here I go...
Dude, I hear what you're saying and believe me, I know...
It WAS thrown together but there were too many people tossin' the
script...
Yeah, they had ten years, but that was all in preparation and
little thought went into a REAL (there's that word again) script...
The actors were well chosen just undernourished by pressure to
complete a film that was not ready to be completed...
Budgets suck...
That's why it had no significant plot...
"Hurry up! Hurry up! Just Git 'er Done!"...
That script was tossed like a Caesar Salad (no pun intended :]).
Look, I had a really tough day today... I had bad news delivered
that a very close friend has terminal cancer...
I am so bitter right now...
Please, forgive me if I come across harsh...
I'm feeling pretty low...
I don't even know why I put that in here...Perhaps someone out
there has had to deal with this?
Can you tell me how I'm supposed to feel?
I know it has nothing to do with apes, but I love y'all so much I
have no one else to really turn to and with all of you out there,
someone, surly has had this happen to them...

Sincerely,

Thades Darling Human

Just an update and a few questions that have come up.

 

The first batch of discs went in the mail this morning. Everyone who had sent payment by noon yesterday was in the fist batch. Got a few more people who sent in payments yesterday afternoon and evening and those discs will go out tomorrow.

 

Got several payments from people in Canada, and they were gracious to send in a few extra dollars to cover increased postage, which was greatly appreciated. If you're in Canada and want to order a disc but didn't because you weren't sure how much to send, $3 covers the increase in postage (that's $3 total, not $3 in addition to the $2 U.S. cost). Same deal for the UK. If you're somewhere other than the U.S., U.K. or Canada, please e-mail me first so I can confirm airmail rates to your country. Note that the disc is NTSC. It's also region-free.

 

The disc you'll receive is a DVD-R, Maxell brand. I don't have DVD+Rs. If you require a specific disc type or brand you have the option of sending a blank disc to James Aquila (jamesa1102@aol. com ). James has created a very cool label and DVD wrap and files for those can be found in the group files (on the DG they're in the Photos 2 sub-group). I won't be applying a label or otherwise marking the disc I send you in any way.

 

You can send PayPal payments ($2 for U.S., $3 for U.K. or Canada) to urko3085@sbcglobal. net or e-mail me at that address if you don't have a PayPal account and want to send a money order instead.

 

Thanks,

Greg

Spain has the same airmail rate as the UK, so $3 will cover the postage.

 

So that's $2 for the U.S. and $3 for the U.K., Canada and Spain. If you live somewhere else in the world and you want the DVD, e-mail me off-group and I'll confrim an amount that will cover the airmail postage to send you a disc. I suspect it will be $3 for most places outside the U.S. but would want to check to be sure.

 

Second batch of discs went out this morning. There's one disc for Canada that I have to bring to the post office tomorow, but otherwise all requests I received through late yesterday have been filled. I got a few this morning that I expect to ship tomorrow as well.

 

Thanks,

Finally have some time search out some Planet Of The Ape groups on
Yahoo , Google, and a few others. Decided to join this one. Hope
everyone is having an enjoyable summer.

Would like to toss an idea in the group here....Out of all the sci-fi
cons I have known about and the few I actually participated in, I have
yet to here or see a con dedicated to POTA. If funds were available to
do so, I would like to do a POTA convention. Since funding is not
available for me to start up something like that, I still would like
to know if anyone would still be interested in a Planet of the Apes
con anyway.....Just an idea, of course.

My belief has always been that the city in CONQUEST was part of a future "megalopolis" that extended from Washington DC to Boston, and that beneath this was a network of "security" tunnels that the oppressive authorities used to move police and other officials in order control the population.

After the nuclear Armageddon, and the background radition subsided and the atmosphere around the rumble was safe to breath again, the surviving humans sheltering underground, and now unable to live on the surface, converted these and other tunnels to ventilation shafts.

Planet of the Apes needs a Convention--it's too fantastic a concept
not to have a Convention.When I see some of the crap that gets
publicity nowadays, I pine for the mid 70s, when Apes Ruled.We had a
mini gathering at the Comics Festival in Bristol, England, a coule of
years ago and even got some t-shirts done.And it was a lot of fun--
meeting other fans and chatting about Apes was just wonderful, after
all of those lonely years.We still meet up each year in Bristol,
depending on who is going and,even if I couldn't make it to the
States, I'd still be thrilled to think a Con was happening over
there.Simian Scrolls has readers in the UK, US,NZ, Australia, Brasil,
Canada, Germany, Denmark, Spain and Ireland--just imagine the kind of
response, worldwide, an ApeCon could generate! I think Booth Colman
is up for convention appearances and maybe the guys at Apemania would
be interested too.Go for it people!!!!!! John, Scrolls.

I agree. I was looking at dealer table prices for Creation's Xena
Convention (no I'm not a dealer) and one of their stipulations was that
a dealer could NOT sell XENA merchandise at the XENA convention. (So
Creation would exclusively sell Xena merchandise) By fans for fans, my
a**!!!!

Thanks to Joe O'Brien we are able to bring you this preview of Issue 6 of the Revolution comic.

http://movies.groups.yahoo.com/group/pota/files/rpota-6-pp-12.jpg 

Issue 6 should be available in the next week or two. Be sure to pick it up and then let everyone know what you think about it either here or on MR comics Forum.

I'd like to publicly thank James for the POTA Rarities disc set that
arrived in the mail yesterday. I've only had opportunity to snoop
through some of the features, but all I can say is "wow". This is
exactly the stuff I've wanted to see as bonus features on official
POTA film releases; once again the fans beat FOX to the punch. The
quality of some of the segments ("aged" Galen, Mego commercials) is
amazing, I dunno how some of this stuff surfaced.

Thanks again...

Dan

WAY COOL!....That would make good wallpaper!

Did these actors ever appear in anything else? Where are they now? And
what happened to the model of the dead Stewart--I'd like to show it to
my mother-in-law to show her how, with help from a plastic surgeon, she
might one day look as good as that.John, Scrolls.

Now that's what I call a Revolution!!! This book is just superb and,
amazingly, gets better with each issue.We have GOT to have another
series, so COME ON FOLKS, LET'S BUY THIS IN BIG, BIG NUMBERS.Part of
being an Apes fan over the decades has been that helpless feeling when
shows, comics etc got cancelled and we could do nothing about it.It's a
real buzz to have classic Apes back, so don't lets miss the chance to
support the one new bit of living Apedom.If you have never seen the
comic, do yourself a big favour and get it--you'll be hooked,
instantly! John, Scrolls.

Yes, I think John Chambers did appliances for the face, but the hands
were the old woman's...

I spelled friend wrong....It's late and I'm not quite on the ball at
present.

A freind of mine will be undergoing some surgery in a few weeks. When
he recovers from that and we get back on track, I'll toss the idea up
at him again. He was one of the founding fathers of furrydom before
the youngsters got ahold of it and got it some questionable pablicity.
He knows how to start up cons from scratch and know who to contact.
If things work out, everybody here can start talking about when and
where next year to have it and what to do in it.
You all start thinking of what activities you want to participate
in...Like panels, art, costuming, etc.
Locations are important too. Where to have it. Either in a hotel with
a large enough meeting space or a campground retreat type facility.
I've done some meeting planning work, so I have some experience in
planning events and stuff. Lets all discuss this off and on during the
fall season and see what solutions will facilitate an Ape Con for next
sometime next year or the year after for sure.

Creation is a difficult group to deal with. I was more thinking along
the lines of either forming a group to spearhead the convention or
getting one of the furry groups to do it. Since I find most of the
Northern California and out of state furcon promoters are more
creative and more fan oriented than business oriented.

Creation at one time ran some really good Cons, but unfortunately success went to their heads. What an Apes con needs is something like the people who ran the first few Trek cons in NYC. I was at the first one ever and no other con was ever like it.

That was real Fan work.

I'll remind everyone that issues 1 thru 5 can still be ordered online at Altered States. Issue 6 will be available too as soon as it is released.

Of course, the real measure will be when the mass-market paperback of Revolution comes out. If that does well a second mini-series has been promised.

It seems Jeff Burton (Dodge) had the most active career, at least
through the early '70s. The others only had a handful of roles.

Unfortunately, both Burton and Robert Gunner have passed on. Only
Dianne Stanley is left.

You're very welcome Dan but I was just the messenger. The real heros
are Hunter and Greg P. for getting this all together.

What is sad about POTA is that so many of the principals have died. As
I noted in an earlier post, both Dodge and Landon are gone. At least
Linda Harrison is still with us. As is Eric Braden, Natalie Trundy, Don
Murray, Paul Williams and Austin Stoker.

Before I got this I'd never seen the "Old Galen" things.

I'm sure it's just me, but I found them kind of sad.  I mean you think how great the original movies is, and how good the makeup is, then you look at McDowall doing this.  I feel the same way when I see Roddy sitting in what's left of the Ape City set in that episode of the TV show.  Schaffner, Shamroy, Heston, Hunter, Evans.... they're all gone, and it's just Roddy left.  Personally, if it were me, I'd have sat on the set and cried!

That reminds me....

A few weeks ago I rented the new DVD of the movie THE LOVED ONE (1965).  Roddy McDowall has a small part in it, playing a studio executive.  His secretary is Asa "Conquest" Maynor, and also in the movie is Paul Williams -- playing a kid!  There's a featurette on the disc and Williams appears in it.  He's sure not a kid anymore.  In fact, he looked pretty old, and, No, he doesn't mention BATTLE -- would you?

I can't claim any credit for putting the disc together, I'm just
helping out with distribution. Hunter deserves the lion's share of
the credit for this disc, with the rest going to all the fans who
contributed clips from their collections.

In case anyone missed the Comedy Central Roast of William Shatner the
other night, there was an old clip of Bill singing with Mike Douglas.

BTW how many Trek-POTA links can people name?

Creation became a victim of its own success. Gary Berman & Adam Malin
were fans who were sick of Conventions that ripped off fans. They
started running their own comics cons and were very good at it.
Unfortunately now they are businessmen concerned with the bottomline.
They dropped a 007 license because it wasn't profitable enough. Now
they do deliever a good product to fans but only do so when there is
enough of a profit margin.
The only way they would ever touch POTA is if there were a new movie
generating buzz. Or if it was part of a general SF convention combined
with other properties.
