"BUT I don't think he ever saw all the POTA movies. He said on camera
during the '98 AMC 30th anniversary marathon that he was going to
finally watch them all. But he told me in '99 that he only watched
"Beneath"."

Well, while I was visiting Joe Russo he told me about when he asked
Roddy McDowall in '83 about the filming of the scenes inside the
spaceship in ESCAPE, which were ultimately left out of the finished
film, and Roddy's response was, "Oh, they were?" Even McDowall didn't
see all the POTA films, at least not for years, and remember that last
video interview he did for the "Behind" documentary where he couldn't
even recall "Battle" at all.

OK, this is the announcement Yahoo Group members....

But first I want to say to everyone, because I know with most of you
money is tight, to try and start saving at least $10 a week, every
week, starting now until the end of the year. Put it away in your Dr.
Zaius piggy bank and forget about it -- because you're going to need it.

You already know that PLANET OF THE APES is being prepared for Blu-ray
DVD... Well, there's more.

While I was visiting Joe Russo, he told me he'd just gotten an email
from a video production company that Fox hires to do their DVD extras.
It seems some executive at Fox, at the last minute, has decided that
the studio might as well put ALL the five original APES movies out on
Blu-ray at the same time, AND that the release date for this is
tentatively scheduled for October 2008!

What I'm going to say now is nothing I know for sure, here is what I've
heard: Mort Abrahams and Eric Greene are involved in some way, and
perhaps others (Joe Russo goes into Manhattan on Monday, April 7th to
sit down for a two-hour video interview). All five films with have new
"Making of" featurettes, AND that Fox is actively looking for any and
all deleted scenes and outtakes! Also, that the original ending, if
not the entire "preview" cut, of CONQUEST has been found (but again, I
don't know this for a FACT).

I will also assume that new commentary tracks and isolated scores, as
well as more extensive still galleries are being prepared.

But here's the real reason why it's important that I tell you this
news. This production company is just getting started right this week
on the extras for the sequels (I think PLANET is pretty much already
done). Fox has them on a ridiculously short schedule to get something
ready. NOW, NOW, NOW is the time -- MORE THAN EVER -- to send a flurry
of letters to Fox telling them EXACTLY what you want to see, otherwise
I think this may come out as just another rush job from Fox.

And none of you should put up with that now because not only are you
going to have to buy new DVDs, but they will be Blu-ray, higher priced
than the standard stuff -- and THEY WON'T PLAY ON YOUR STANDARD DVD
PLAYERS. You are going to have to buy Blu-ray DVD players!

This is why I told you to start saving your money, and if you still
have family that buys you stuff for Christmas -- tell them you're going
to want a Blu-ray DVD player. (Don't buy one now, though! The second
generation players will be out in the Fall and they'll be cheaper
(probably an average of $250.)

So, that's the news for now. I can't emphasize more my belief that
letters to Fox STILL should be written. Now that we may finally be
getting stuff we've wanted to see for years, we shouldn't let any kind
of sloppy rush job go down without a fight. If only in tribute to the
now late Charlton Heston, please try and send Fox even a hand-written
note! Please don't just do nothing.

Addresses, email addresses, phone and fax numbers will be forthcoming
from James. We're still trying to figure out who exactly to address
letters to at Fox. (Who's the executive closest to the project? Maybe
Joe Russo will find out tomorrow. I'll ask him to ask.)

I found it really interesting that Arsenio Hall referred to him as
his "Go To Guy," if a guest cancelled at the last minute, he said he
could always call Charlton Heston & he'd be there. Speaking of which,
Heston made an appearance on the Conan O'Brian show that has to be the
funniest interview Conan has ever done, all done with great respect for
Heston, but Conan was at the top of his game. I really wish someone had
a copy of it and would submit it for Rareties 3. Maybe NBC will rerun
it this week.

How long after the premiere of POTA2001 did she die? Larry Landsman
took her to that premiere and said she was very frail. He also said

The program booklet was cobbled together from the Teacher's Study Guide available on Hunter's site: https://pota.goatley.com/scripts/pota_teachguide.pdf ; so don't get too excited that is is something original.

A PDF of it is available in the group's File's section: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/pota/files/Planet%20of%20the%20Apes.pdf as well as a special flyer: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/pota/files/Flyer.pdf

Thanks for the update. The Private Screening show was on yesterday. They showed a clip of Planet and Heston commented over it. Gives you a taste of what his DVD commentary would have been like if only FOX had bothered to do one. Missed opportunity.

No, just making an observation. After all these years I'm neither here
nor there about it. In fact, I've never really thought much about
Zira's bag, except that she should have hung onto it! Could have saved
everybody's lives.

Depending on your definition, Zira's carpet bag is the only McGuffin
in the POTA saga (I'm sure this can be debated, it doesn't create the
action, but under other film maker's interpretations, I would call it
one.)

It's the first thing the Human's mention about the apes

"Where did they get those clothes?"

"They brought them with them, sir. In that suitcase"

"Suitcase?"

Then it's forgotton, until the end when its recognition comes back
and bites them....

One of the many reasons I will argue that the sequels are well
written, especially Escape....

Hi everyone.   I am deeply saddened by the loss of one of Hollywood's most revered and dynamic actors:  Charlton Heston.  I'd been a fan of his for quite some time, before and after APES:  "The Ten Commandments", "The Omega Man", "Soylent Green", "Will Penny", "Ben-Hur", etc., but as far as I'm concerned, if he hadn't been in the first APES, I strongly believe that it wouldn't have become the classic box-office smash that it was.  Who could have played the role of Colonel Taylor better than he?   Mr. Heston made the APES saga one of the greatest movie series of all time that is will be enjoyed by future generations.    You will be missed, Colonel George Taylor.   Zach

No.4:Nice replica , when you pass your hands on the side of the mask
you can actually feel the ears of Cornelius.

Now i have to find the right make-up for my eyes to match the skin
