I'm a first time poster and new to the group: has anyone ever mapped
out the world of POTA? I am under the impression that Ape City is
located in the borough of Queens, possibly further on Long Island.
Brent and Nova journey from Ape City to what is left of Manhattan by
entering the subway system at Queensborough Plaza. This would have
them traveling west, which would mean that they were coming from
somewhere in Queens. Does anyone have any thoughts on this?

Welcome Chuck...Check in our features, we have a map of the East Coast,

One of the best crossover ideas yet.

I'm working on my own which is a crossover of Planet Of The Apes and
Boston Legal.
So far the script is twenty two pages of....

Dr Zaius - Denny Crane - Dr Zauis - Denny Crane- Dr Zauis- Denny Crane-
Dr Zauis- Denny Crane.

Brendan.

John, don't embarress us. Sienfeld is a sitcom not a chatshow.
Now quietly back away and run for the door while the Americans are
not looking...
Brendan.

i didn't like the queensborough plaza idea. they had that stop underground, when that stop is elevated. now i know this world is the future, and everything is messed up, but if you look at the design in the movie. they have it structured wrong it has the look of a undrground station. as you can see the tracks are sunken down from the platform. there are not like that at the queens stop. they should have used another underground stop that is popular.

They linked movies like Malcolm X with POTA.

That's funny. Jerry Seinfeld did a commercial based on the same premise:

I want a Boston Legal/Stargate crossover just to see James Spader b*tchslap Michael Shanks.

Just go here
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/pota/files/Misc./Stuff/Maps.htm and click
on the East Coast tab. This is based on the map shown in Planet. It
appears that Manhattan & most of Queens have molded with the mainland
over the centuries.
Ape City seems to be somewhere in Central New Jersey.

To celebrate the event please be sure to stop by the group's Yahoo Home page http://movies.groups.yahoo.com/group/pota/ for a special musical tribute.

Also, as an added treat a PDF copy of Issue #1 of Marvel's Adventures on the Planet of the Apes comic has been uploaded to the Fan Fiction group: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/PotaFanFiction/files/Adventure1.pdf. Issue #1 contains the first chapter of Marvel's adaption of Planet in color.

To access the PDF you need to be a member of the Fan Fiction group. If you aren't already, you can join here: http://movies.groups.yahoo.com/group/PotaFanFiction/join.

Happy Anniversary everyone!

So out of original ideas that we have to steal from one to forfill
the other?
Not that anyone listens(or reads, in this case), but c'mon...
Broaden those horizons...
Look beyond and don't be afraid to write them as they approach...
They're called "notes".
And they will all fit in the puzzle...
La di shan gri la...
Nobody listens...
I submitted my "un"subscription and still I remain like a captive...
Just do what your hear tells you and don't take anything,
especially life, too serious...
"They" will tell you - "Don't quit your day job", but if it's in
your soul, then you won't have to...

Say what?!...

Take it you have no goal in the writing field...
Obviously there is always someone willing to put up their dooks...
Hey..., know what?
I don't give a damn...
It's in my capacity to grasp the reality that you cannot realize
that you tear apart an anthology and in that effort it only breaks
down a piece that only makes it harder to realize and adhere to a
part of the future we will never see although, in our hearts we
wished it to be...
Thanks for crushing a dream, whether it be real or delusional...
Albeit, Illusional...
Time lines and half times...
Who'll write the next book in the chronicle?
None of you...
Too narrow minded for the 21st Century...
See you in the funny papers...

Sincerely,
Thade's Darling Human.

It is a great site but it has frooze twice after viewing about 5/6
screens.
I can open new windows and access other sites, but this one remains
frozen until I reboot.
So caution may be advised for some.

Is there a reason you keep insulting everyone like that? No one has
done anything to you. Everyone has been friendly and welcomed you
here despite your rather bizarre posting persona, and several people
(in this group and the other) have made it clear that no one has a
problem with your affection for POTA2001, even if it is a minority
opinion. However, instead of responding to anyone or actually
engaging in any meaningful discussion, you just keep posting
diatribes insulting the entire group. Why? Instead of slinging
insults at those who don't like POTA2001, why not post your opinion
of WHY you like the film? And instead of trashing everyone who likes
the original films, why not explain WHY you don't? Then you'd be a
positive force, inspiring conversations, instead of source of strife,
inspiring annoyance.

And oh... Brent and Nova covered a LOT of ground as
well, and ALL underground! The walk southwest from
Queensborough Plaza to pass the fqallen New York Stock
Exchange, then North again to St Patricks' Cathedral-
very likely would have taken them at least a full day,
and maybe two- with stops to rest. Heck, no wonder
they were sooooo thirsty by the time they got to St.
Patricks!!!

> Ape City seems to be somewhere in Central New Jersey.

Scary.

Amazing too... how so many famous landmarks survived,
being 'underground'.

Any good theories why so much wound up underground?
Where'd all of that covering dirt and rocks come from?

February 7th also happens to be my birthday, so...
so much the better! :-)

I was 13 years old when the movie came out. Kinda...
'scary' :-/

Feeling old...

This 'sitcom' of which you speak---it's 'situational comedy'?But it's
American, right? Obviously some strange, obscure sense of the
word 'comedy' that I haven't encountered before. If I understand the
rules, regular characters in these things have to say/do routines
they have done millions of times before in the show and then, as if
struck by lightning, the live studio audience have to piss themselves
laughing at this manifestation of surprise hilarity.Every cast member
is pals with everybody else, and it's all just so much fun they'd do
it for free? If ignorance is bliss, then, where US 'comedy' is
concerned, I'm content to stay a very happy guy. John, Scrolls.

Hello,

Hello!

My name is Bill Hollweg and I joined your site a few weeks ago- and
I must say it is incredible! Thank you for putting this up!

This being my first post and the anniversary of the relese of the
original POTA, I thought that I would share some news that is very
dear to me. I am a writer, producer and voice actor for Broken Sea
Audio Producions (we make radio plays, but with updated state of the
art music and sound sfx and quality sound productions). That said, I
have been a fan of POTA since my elementary school days when I would
race home with my best friend to catch the APE WEEK after school
special... I still love the original movies and watch them often and
have gotten my grandaughters (I am a 39 year old groovy grandad)
loving the films as well (ages 5 & 7).

But enough about me and my life- we are producing a full audio
dramatization of POTA based on Boulle's Novel and tying it in with
the actual screenplays from the movies and even some original scenes
I have written to add texture, shore up gaps in the movies and such!
It is a real labor of love and I invite you all to download it for
free at: www.brokensea.com on March 1st (when the first episode will
air). The website will be fully operational on March 1 2007, so
please come by and check it as well as some of our other audio
offering s out!

I have posted the mp3 trailer and the coming soon banner at the
BrokenSea yahoo group, and am posting them here as well. I thank you
for your time and all the wonderful discussions on everything ape!

Cheers!

Bill Hollweg

Perhaps sitcom is a nasty word, but this broke many rules of the
truly dire staple sitcom.
I think you might actually laugh at this more often then not.
For a start they tested the network censors constantly. Most
famously by doing a whole episode about a masturbation contest,
without mentioning the word.
He and or she who went the longest without, won.
Larry David who co-created this went on to write and star in Curb
Your Enthusiasm which is 11, that is one higher than 10, above
Seinfeld.
Trust me John, you would enjoy Larry David.
In the words of Mrs Doyle... Go On, you want to, go on (have a cup
of tea)
Brendan.

BrokenSea Audio Productions will be releasing an audio dramatization
of the 1968 PLANET OF THE APES film on March 1. You can find a link
to their site, view a banner for the show, and listen to an MP3
trailer for it on my site:

https://pota.goatley.com/

In addition, part 1 of 5 has been posted of a BBC "Books for Bedtime"
radio abridgement of Pierre Boulle's novel. A new part will be posted
each week.

I followed Bill Hollweg in here  as we are 2/3 of the triad behind the BrokenSea audio production group.

It's great to see fans giving such heartfelt tribute to the  classic pop-culture icon that is POTA.


Personally I think the remake stank.

I just looked at (anazlyzed) the 3 APE-Maps. NYC, Ape City, and
Shooting (on-location)Map.
I gotta add (ask), is the original location of the Statue of
LIBERTY, supposed to be anywhere close to it's final resting place?

I've always been under the impression that what they show you on-
screen - Lady Liberty rusted, and slightly tilted to one side - is
the 'only' the upper half. I kinda figured (guessed) that )over th
eyears) eithered HUDSON BAY dried up, and this are the left overs of
NYC harbor? Or Lady Liberty got blasted off it's base and landed
somewhere in the nearby vicinity.

That is the consensus.  It's a mediocre mishmash at best.

At worst it embodies all that is worst about movie remakes.

Here's what Uncle John's Bathroom Reader says about it.

 

Time Travel Movie Marathon

 

Planet of the Apes: Charlton Heston lands on what he thinks is

an alien planet and finds it populated by talking apes who think

he is a savage (mind you this is way before he became the NRA's

alpha male).  Ol' Charlie is awesome in this--he grunts, he snarls,

he chews the scenery like a silverback confronted with a particularly

choice bunch of bananas ("Get your stinking paws off me, you

damned dirty ape!"). They remade this one recently, but the new

version is--How do the French say?  Ah yes--un lame-o stinkeroo.

Stick with Charlie, baby.

it went for two and a half hours. Incredible -- and pan & scan to boot!

No way to watch APES, as far as I'm concerned. <<

>>It seems an interesting choice for the History channel, but why

From the programmers pov, show it and perhaps someone stays on the
channel to watch something else, or sees an ad for something else. Why
did I watch it, since I have it on DVD? Because along with a select
handful of movies; THEM! Forbidden Planet, The Thing from Another
World, The Day the Earth Stood Still; it's an endlessly, timeless
entertaining film. So what if I can sit there and repeat all the
dialouge along with the characters, or notice that the hatch is blown
before it's blown. It's just a classic that is worth watching again and
again and again.
And it always will be. <<<.html

Brent and Nova journey from Ape City to what is left of Manhattan by
entering the subway system at Queensborough Plaza. This would have
them traveling west, which would mean that they were coming from
somewhere in Queens. Does anyone have any thoughts on this?

Yeah, you want to map out the world of BENEATH THE PLANET OF THE APES, not the original.

That's what the captions say, although some of the captions are wrong,
for instance, the initial press read

"your GREED made a desert of it ages ago" instead of "your BREED made a
a desert of it ages ago" They fixed it in the remaster, but I remember
there were many mistakes in the captions in the evolution press.

Well, tonight on the American 'sitcom' "30 Rock"
starring Tina Fey late of "Saturday Night Live", a man
walks into her office and immediatly notices a French
poster of Planet of the Apes on her wall and it got a
close up!
Bizarre and out of the blue!

Ahh, at last! I'd heard the BBC had done a reading but had never been
able to confirm it. I'd even written to the station but never had any
response - and here it is at last.

Thanks to Neil and David for sharing - much apreciated.

Dave

Have not seen this one in a while. I have all the Ape films on VHS. Do
the DVD's have anything special (deleted scenes)?


John

Good question.
I thought I saw Don Murray as one of the Guards confronting Ceasar in
Conquest at the steps when he shouts ' lousy Human Bastards'
The two guards who turn to him after being invovled with subduing Aldo.
One does the questioning, but the other, mostly just stands in shot.
He looks very similar to Don Murray.
Do you think he wanted to cameo as a second character or was he
Governor Breck, undercover.

.html.htmlLast night, the 39th Anniversary of the opening of PLANET in 1968, a French PLANET poster made an appearence near the end of the NBC sitcom "30 Rock."
I've never seen it before on the show, but I haven't seen every episode, but I wonder if it means series creator, Tina Frey, is a fan or something.  The guy who walked in her office and mentioned the poster then said, "Did you know that in Greece they have to change Charlton Heston's name, because in Greek "Heston" means to shit on yourself?"

Anyway, it was a nice surprise.

Better picture quality and sound, for one.  Also, the 35th Anniversary edition of PLANET offers lots of extras.

I saw that too. In another episode she was quoting lines from Star
Wars. I think Tina Fey's in the show is supposed to be a bit of a geek.
Earlier in last night's episode they also made reference to "Ugly
Betty". A few weeks ago on that show, the plot was about their concept
for a Planet of the Apes themed fashsion shoot was stolen by a
competing magazine.
All proof positive that POTA lives!

Brent and Nova covered a LOT of ground as well, and ALL underground! The walk southwest from Queensborough Plaza to pass the fqallen New York Stock Exchange, then North again to St Patricks' Cathedral- very likely would have taken them at least a full day, and maybe two- with stops to rest.

Hello all
I will apologize beforehand if these questions have been answered at
an earlier time or are in any way considered to be dumb. I would like
to know these answers, if the answers exist.

1. Was Don Murray every approached about including his character
in "Battle?" Breck was in the Marvel magazines (if I am correct with
some kind of mask)and I know the recent mini-series showed exactly
how "the bomb killed the old governor." Or did his 'death' in the
original ending rule this out?

2. What was the exact number of Mendez leaders in the house of Mendez?

I appreciate your time and happy birthday apes!

For those who missed it last night, the episode is available online at:
http://www.nbc. com/Video/ rewind/full_ episodes/ 30rock..html"
The scene with the French POTA poster is in Part Three.

starting at 2:45, Marooned at 5:30 (featuring James Franciscus, among

Hello and greetings from Scotland.I have been an Apes fan ever since
the first film came out.The Original,and its sequels all take pride of
place in my video collection...well second pride of place after my Star
Trek collection,followed in third place by original series ''V''.Sadly
I have to confess I do have as well a copy of the Burton apes film(it
was a present)...but it is no way a patch on the originals..Why folk
cannot think of new ideas for films...Oh i know lets look and see we
will do a remake of ...King Kong,Planet Of The Apes,Superman,War Of The
Worlds etc etc..even that all time classic Black Christmas(1974) got a
recent remake....leave these films alone....they are classics and we
dont need/wanta remake we know what the film is about,and who is in it
etc..remakesin my mind rarely work..they are not a patch on the
original..War Of The Worlds did kinda work.Anyway enough ramblings for
now..from Bobby

Thanks Chris L.

That's why I said reworked.... It was no masterpiece, but there were
moments, and it wasn't the worst film I've ever seen, I guess maybe I
enjoyed it because I saw it as POTA. The theatrical version that is,
not the home video version... I despise the home video version...

I thought the movie was laughable -- when I first saw it...Then, I
read the book, which I enjoyed, and I realized what Travolta was up
against...And then I saw the movie again, and I have more respect for
it, now...

For me it would be a Chimpanzee, the most well rounded or so it seems,
of the three species from the movies. Chimps aren't overly antagonistic
as Gorillas are (except in reality its the other way around) nor are
they as pompous and power mad as the Orangutangs.

On the basis that it's only fair that you know why you are doomed,
I'm going to explain why none of 'Terror' was crap.If you mean
by 'mountain men' the River Society and the glorious characters
Gunpowder Julius and Steely Dan then you're dissing two of the most
well rounded,affectionate and solid characters from 70s black and
white magazines.The art by Ploog is STILL held up as a high point of
black and white art in the medium and the tales, exploring how Apes
and humans can live together, fight together and die together are
wonderful.It would be good if the entire 'Terror'run could be
collected in trade paperback and the evolution of this series and
recurring characters be enjoyed for what is is--a masterpiece. John,
Scrolls.

Depends on the weather.

In cool weather all that hair and leather could come in handy.

But in the Summer?  In the Desert?  I'd rather be digging artifacts

in a cave by the sea somewhere with a nice offshore breeze.

Crap and poor story telling. The only thing worthwhile
was Mike Ploogs artwork. The mutants were silly and
the way they spoke, ridiculous. You can argue all you
want, I didn't like it then and I don't like it now. I
feel the same way about Star Drek Enterprise. Poor
conception. Although if I had to re-read Jason and
Alexanders adventures or watch the first three seasons
of Enterprise, I'd be reading right now.

P.S. No one drew better jungle foliage than Mike.

Not being American, I always thought that it seemed like it had turned up on the WEST coast.  That coast line looks a lot like California does in other movies of the time.

Any one know where or how that scene was actually shot?

The Ugly Betty plot was to "a post apocalyptic Christmas" feature spread (which got stolen).  It didn't specifically mention POTA, but it had tanks, 21 tonnes of desert sand and designer flak jackets.  On the backdrop to the layout there was a POTA statue of liberty as part of the montage.

My wife makes me watch that show.

I saw that too. In another episode she was quoting lines from Star

Earlier in last night's episode they also made reference to "Ugly
Betty". A few weeks ago on that show, the plot was about their concept
for a Planet of the Apes themed fashsion shoot was stolen by a
competing magazine.
All proof positive that POTA lives!
