Bob Lombardo is the actor behind the makeup in the "This is Marcus" POTA ads.  In the film he's the gorilla that comes to get Taylor to be gelded and talks to Julius, and he the same one that pushes Zira away after Taylor is caught in the net.  Lombardo doesn't seem o have done much else in films.

He's the same one that laughs when Zaius mentions Zira's theory of "human domestication" right?

No that was Norman Burton who was credited as Hunt Leader. He is easy to spot in the film. He's the only Gorilla with glyphs on his sash.

Norman was also in Escape as the Army General on the Presidential Commission.

Incorrect.

The ape that you're referring to is The Hunt Leader and he was played
by Norman Burton.

The Hunt Leader was not Marcus, head of Security Police.

Years ago now, I managed to contact Glenn Shadix, a superhumanly nice
guy.I did a really poor job interviewing him, and when we get to
review Burton's movie legacy in Scrolls one day, we'll run it.Anyway,
he told me that the schedule was telescoped because it was meant to
be Christmas. It definitely has , in places, the look of a badly
rushed movie. I have on mini tape somewhere Glenn telling me 'Next
you'll be telling us these beasts have a soul!' which was spooky!
John, Scrolls.

> Where did you hear POTA2001 was planned as a Christmas release?

As far as I know, the reason POTA was rushed was because they moved
it up a year because Fox had planned "Minority Report" for 2001 but
Cruise and Speilberg couldn't do it so they switched POTA and M.R.
Basically, Fox needed a big summer movie to plug into 2001. Added to
that was the threatened writer's strike. They had to finish
productions early. So POTA (and Burton) were squeezed from both
directions. Jeff

Exactly. "Some" of it might have appeared in the earliest drafts of
the script, but the scenes he's talking of didn't.

There's not even any "photographic evidence" to support the
possibilty that something like that was ever shot (excluding the
Zaius/Taylor bit, which exists on film and photos, so it'd be hard
to say what's what in an existing scene.)

The only things from BENEATH that I know of that may have existed
and were cut or edited are:


Longer steam-bath scene (footage of which exists in the BENEATH
featurette).

Longer Ursus speech (same as above).

The scene where Zaius, Ursus and the Minister are debating the
Forbidden Zone invasion (scripted AND photos exist.)

The scene where Cornelius is out by the wagons telling the gorilla
that he needs Brent and Nova for research, the gorilla says "no"
due to Captain Odo's (?) orders, to which Cornelius says he can have
them due to orders from Dr. Zaius or something like that. (This too
was scripted and there are photos that indicate such a scene was shot.
I believe one even appeared on a poster for BENEATH, but I'm not
positive of this.)

In addition to playing the Hunt Leader and General Brody, he also
played Yalu, Galen's father in the TV series.

Hi,
I'm in need of a picture of the 'trigger' piece, who was broken by
previous owner I guess. Anyone out there who has a clear and detailed
picture of the 'trigger' piece (brown plastic), care to send it over to
my mailbox ; this way, I could restore the broken piece in some way as
to enjoy this boardgame even more.
Cheers, Peter

Hi there,
is there anyone out there in pota universe who has some pictures of the
trigger assembly who was included with the pota vintage gameboard MB
1974.
I bought the gameboard online several weeks ago ; all pieces are in
mint condition, except for one particular piece (trigger) who seems to
be broken on the underside ; this piece needs to be complete to
activate the trigger motion (open or close the prison roof).
So, if someone can help me out here and send me a clear and detailed
picture of that particular 'trigger' (made in brown plastic), I would
be very glad and could enjoy this game even more...

Greetings, PETER

In Starburst #120 (from 1988)there's a snotty article about the Apes
movies.It mentions that James Franciscus and Ted Post re-wrote the
script with 'a writer named John Ryan'. Who is John Ryan? John, Scrolls.

http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20070720/ap_on_sc/australia_old_chimp_dies

SYDNEY, Australia - One of the world's oldest chimps, Fifi, has died
in Australia, zoo officials said Friday. Fifi was the matriarch of
the 18 chimpanzees at Sydney's Taronga Zoo, and celebrated her 60th
birthday in May with sugar-free cupcakes and coconuts among four
generations of her family.



But Fifi, who suffered arthritis and had taken to sipping from a cup
of chamomile tea each morning in her later years, stayed in bed
Thursday morning, raising suspicions among the keepers that she was
unwell, the zoo said in a statement.

Keepers provided her with fresh bedding and her favorite foods, while
other chimps in the group visited her throughout the day, the zoo
said. She died peacefully in the afternoon.

"Keepers have been saddened by the peaceful passing of their oldest
and much loved Chimpanzee, Fifi," the zoo said.

The zoo said an investigation would be held to determine a cause of
death.

Chimps, who share 98 percent of humans' DNA and are our closest
living relatives in nature, have an average life expectancy of about
45 years, but can live longer in captivity because of the health care
and good diet they get.

Cheeta, the star of a dozen "Tarzan" movies in the 1930s and 1940s,
is listed by the Guinness Book of World Records as the world's oldest
chimp. He turned 75 in April.

Hi, All.

I kind ok lurk, but saw the home page picture and thought it would be

Percy was superb as Aboro--oddly enough, if the scheduling list is
right, The Tyrant is on ITV 4 over here in a few hours! He was a really
menacing character, definitely someone I'd have liked to be a recurring
character.Interestingly, in the script and the novel, he's far less
impressive and Daku is the manipulator.Shows what a powerful performer
Percy is.I snuck in, underage, in 1975 to see Jaws twice--that is
almost the perfect film.John, Scrolls.

>
> Percy Rodrigues played Aboro in the POTA episode "The Tyrant", one

of my favorite guest stars on the show, one of the rare times a gorilla
seemed intelligent.

> There's an independent documentary about the movie "Jaws" that's

been made, kind of a professional fan film that interviews all the
people involved in making the film, as well as a fan convention at
Martha's Vineyard where the movie was shot. "Jaws" has always been one
of my favorites, so when this flick arrives, I'm there!

> Anyway, Percy has a distincive voice and is a long time narrator of

movie trailers ("The Exorcist", etc.). He did the trailer for "Jaws"
and agreed to do the trailer for this documentary. Here's a link to the
trailer plus pictures of Percy back in the day and now and background
on getting him to do it. I thought it might be of interest.

Hehehe... I get frustrated when I check in, because I usually can't
figure out what you all are talking about.

You going downtown to the Simpsons premier? Ben and Jerry's is going
to have two new flavors of ice cream!

As long as I am in the neighborhood, I just want to comment on how
consistantly consistant these Lessons are. I enjoy reading them and
am amazed at how unified they seem from one week to the next. Kudos
to those involved. It's a treat to have them arrive in my mailbox
each week.

Thank you.

Did anyone else get "The Rat Patrol" on DVD?  I have both seasons.  It's a boy's adventure/comic-book level show but I like the cast and cinematography (lots of desert).

Hi Peter,

I remember the trigger piece was always a problem in that game.

If anyone has a copy of the original directions and can scan them, it might be helpful.

I was just looking at mine ..... There are no
instructions as far as I know....I think I would have
kept them. The wheel thingy sits inside the
case...there should be a round foam piece inside
underneath that the wheel sits on......the tall piece
fits in to the top facing away....Supposedly when you
turn the "knob" it catches the tall piece and either
pulls it back or doesn't therefore either dropping the
human into the cage or not......but mine doesn't seem
to work all that good...I seem to remember having
trouble with it originally as well....

Hope the pics help!

I have it.  Right now I can't recall how much I paid for it.  Could have been $500, but I seem to recall $350.  It was a number of years ago.

Thanks for sending Tim. If I recall correctly there was a round piece of foam rubber that went inside under the wheel to act like a spring.

All it takes is the willingness to spend whatever it takes.  I used to be that crazy, but not any more.  One piece I never got was the PLANET British quad.  By the time I could have gotten one my POTA-poster-collecting fever was gone and I wasn't willing to spend the $$$.

In the original POTA, when Taylor goes through the museum, he runs past a "sculpture" of a 3 fingered hand - that is clearly not an ape hand.

My pondering is -  was this meant to be an abstract piece of "Ape Modern Art" or was it a representation of a mutant limb?  It was a big sculpture, so clearly wasn't a real fossil etc.

Does anyone know why this was included as a set piece?

It is obviously the claw from the Flying Serpent in The Animated
Series!
And if anyone counts the toes and compares and they don't exactly
match, that's because the Claw was re-imagined due to Director's Ego.

Hello fellow Apesters,

I'm here, you're beloved Italian POTA fan, T.C. I know you were missing
me! Yes, I know that! What a great and compact fan following is this. ;)

By the way, what's the name of that actress who gave that superb
performance in the TV SERIES ('Planet of The Apes: Adventures in the
Apeline One', 1974) as an Humanoid Chimp brainwashing Burke (or
Virdon)? What's her character? I remember I watched in awe the clip on
youtube, and she gave one of the best POTA performances of all the
times! And the make-up work on her was outstanding.

Thanks.


T.C.

Many thanks. What can I say? Top notch make-up, top notch character,
top notch acting performance. Actually, this same pic seems a
beautiful painting. In all regards, that's one of the million of
reasons POTA is far superior to any other cinematic saga.

It interests me because it suggests an intention to indicate that Apes were capable of artistic expression (which makes perfect sense in the POTA verse).

But are there any other examples of Ape art in any of the POTA media?

There are statues of the Lawgiver, intricate architecture and stylised buildings (which seem to be built around an intriguing ape aesthetic) interior lattices which are carefully designed to appear vine like, but no real samples of painting or abstract sculpture beyond that one really odd piece.


Is it because of the stifling of creative thought by the Orangs that the Apes haven't fostered a creative culture? Or are they just not sufficiently evolved to express themselves in matters of faith and creation beyond the rigid dogma of the sacred scrolls?

But the problem is he only saw them as talking monkeys. You can blame FOX all you want but they are just a group of nameless executives. Burton put his name on the film so it was ultimately his responsibilty.

 

I agree.  He can say the studio bullied him all he wants,

but as the director it's up to him to stand up to them and

fight for his vision.  I just don't think he really had one.

  They were both crap. Fox exec Peter Chernin said the Hayes script was one of the best scripts he ever read. Typical. But I preferred it to the Hamm version which was awful.  The Rifkin one, too. Of all of them (including Burton's), Hayes was the best.    Jeff

They're out there somewhere. My site is proud to be a PotA2001-free
zone, so the scripts aren't there. But I've seen them around on the
'net somewhere. The Forbidden Zone site, maybe?

I've got Valley of the Dinosaurs in my machine at the moment, so Jackie
has certainly come a long way.I hope his career takes off--he gave a
luminous performance in The Legacy and my only concern is whether
Watchmen will let us really see him as an actor or whether the whole
thing will be a bit swamping and spectacle based.I'll definitely have
to dig out my Watchmen trade now! John, Scrolls.

I can see it now--for the 40th Anniversary release, Julius will have
his cigar digitally removed and replaced with one of those twirly party
horns.Anybody who saw Linda Harrison's expression at the NEC this year
whilst she had to hold Buck Kartalian's cigar may think the ban is a
good idea.Wasn't there a group in America letting down tyres at one
time because it was wrong to imprison the air? And no, that's not a
punchline to a fart joke. John, Scrolls.

> The media watchdogs are at it again. Disney has become the first

studio to ban smoking from it's family films, and it's executives
will "discourage" smoking in it's more adult flicks, like Miramax and
Touchstone. That's just more political B.S. and censorship. As a life
long movie fan who never took up smoking, I find this buckling to
pressure groups ridiculous. Teaching kids not to smoke should take
place in real life. Sometimes smoking works as a way to show character
or, yeah, showing rebellion. There should be a pressure group to stop
homogeneous corporate think in society.

smoke in "Escape"? Jeff

Lessee...Damnation Alley is probably too old, so could it be one of
those godawful Bad News Bears monstrosities? This isn't a trick
question about alien beings inhabiting the souls of actors is it?
