(one of my guilty pleasure faves since Shelley Winters dies in it) was a little disconcerting for I was so used to seeing his soulful eyes in chimp makeup, but that voice soothed me quickly.

Somebody got something against Shelley Winters? She was one of the best things in LOLITA.

McDowall over playing, as usual with as much depth as a kids pool.

McDowall was one of those kind of actors that needed a good director -- which explains why he's so good in PLANET, ESCAPE and CONQUEST, but oh God! Get the hose out for him sometimes on the TV show.

In POTA we only see Dodge stuffed; Landon, though lobotomized, is still very much alive. Does this mean that Zaius and the simian scientists murdered Landon as well and had him stuffed between films?

I don't know, but I'm watching it again on AMC right now and Chu ck battles magnificently for his melon. Though I guess he didn't know that until the Trial. So technically he was battling for his nuts, but kicking gorilla ass all over the place. All three bits of anatomy worth fighting for.. Zira would have been proud!

Speaking of Zira, I just watched an epi of Mission Impossible and McDowall was the bad guy. Jim's cover name was, coincidentally, Hunter. McDowall over playing, as usual with as much depth as a kids pool.

Hey Rory,

Since you (and James and someone else) spotted some errors in the DVD
transfer of POTA'68, why don't you write a letter and/or start a
petition in order to get those "mistakes" fixed BEFORE they make the
BLUE RAY? Before it's too late...

In order to get a better treatment...

Hey You!

Because from what I've been told, PLANET is already done.

I'll never say that I'm sure this is what we're going to get, but I'm keeping my fingers crossed: A few years ago an archival restoration was done on PLANET. Someone who posted in this group either saw a showing of it, as a "work in progress," or reported on the showing of it at the George Eastman House in Rochester, NY. At that time the man in charge of film restoration at Fox, Shawn Belston, said that a couple of reels of the original negative were missing (scenes of the escape from Ape City and at the gorge)! Anyway, I assumed this restoration was being done for two reasons: in preparation for high definition video and to provide the best possible print to the Library of Congress -- since the movie made the "National Registry" list a few years ago.

Now, is this what's being shown on Monsters HD? Got me, I can't see it, but I hope that what w e'll get on Blu-ray will be an actual film restoration of PLANET and not one that's merely from the digital realm, which is what we now have on 35th Anniversary DVD. Will the sequels hopefully get the same treatment? Got me. What did you think of the transfers in the Legacy set? Pretty good for the most part, but BENEATH looked too bright.

Keep your fingers crossed. In the meantime, with this thing supposedly coming out in either late October or November, and Fox putting a rush on the creation of the extras, I expect it's too late to write letters now. Luckily, plenty of letters have been sent in the past. I think those at Fox have a pretty good idea of what the fans expect and desire, though that doesn't mean they can or will deliver, and we can do little more now than wait and see.

Thanks Scott!! I especially enjoyed the BENEATH behind the scenes shots. In particular, where Ted Post is trying to show James Franciscus what his facial reaction should be when the Mutants remove their masks.

 

Occasionally, I've know people to get unique items like these (in particular, lots of behind the scenes photos from BENEATH) and then flat out refuse to share them with other fans because of a "mine, mine, mine" mentality. A complete dick move in my opinion. I've spent lots of money on the items I've contributed to the online POTA community (all of which are on Hunter's site), and my first thought when I receive them is to get the images posted online (which either Hunter or Greg P. always help out with).

 

Any others from BENEATH?

My approval or that of any other moderator is not needed. All we ask is that the link is somehow POTA related. Thanks.

If this is a UK edition of them which came out in 1974 I can get the set for about £200 !!!!

This is a theory that occurred to me as I was working on my POTA
fanfic, and I thought I'd put it out there and see weather my fellow
Apes fans agree with me. My apologies if someone else thought of this
before me, and forgive me if I'm pointing out the blatantly obvious.

Most people I've talked to agree that the ending of Battle for the
Planet of the Apes is proof that the future had been changed, and
instead of the Ape scoiety of the first two films developing a joint
Ape/Human scoiety develops instead. I've always assumed this as well,
but maybe the future wasn't really changer after all. My theory
focuses on the Lawgiver.

My theory is this, the Lawgiver we see at the beginning and end of
Battle isn't the Lawgiver mentioned in the first two movies, the one
who wrote the sacred scrolls. Maybe it's just me, but I've always just
assumed that the Lawgiver from Battle is the one mentioned in the
original movie, but now I don't think that is the case.

Try to follow my logic. The ending scene in Battle with the Lawgiver
teaching his class of Ape and Human children takes place 600 years
after Caesar's death, which means that there is gap of approximately
one thousand four hundred years between the end of Battle and the
start of the original film. In the original Dr. Zaius tells Taylor
that the Sacred Scrolls were written approximately one thousand two
hundred years ago, two hundred years after Battle's ending scene. That
would mean that Battle's Lawgiver couldn't be the THE Lawgiver from
the original movie. That would also mean that there is ample time for
the joint ape/human scoiety to fail, Humans to devolve into animals,
and the Ape scoiety seen in the first two movies to develop.

Again, forgive me if I;m pointing out something that everyone else had
already figured out a long time ago, but there it is. So what do you
all think?

If you get to ask any questions, please ask if they corrected the audio EFX from BENEATH.

What exactly are we talking about here?  I can't recall, but did BENEATH still have audio problems with its "Legacy" set anamorphic release?  (I'll have to check this out.)  Are we still hearing audio in the background before the scene arrives?

Coolness. Please see if you can find the table/booth/ panel where Fox is supposedly going to be discussing the Blu-Ray set. If you get to ask any questions, please ask if they corrected the audio EFX from BENEATH. If you want, I can e-mail you a list of particulars.

 

And on the odd chance they're giving some promo stuff away, please grab me one. Or two. Of each.  ;-)

 

 

Thanks,

 

Chris

*** I think Edward G. Robinson could have easily pulled off Dr. Zaius with the same "spirit" as Maurice Evans (though in the Edward G. Robinson style of course...) ***

I'm not sure, but I think in the long run Robinson would have been too much of a distraction as Zaius.  Everyone would still be going "That's Edward G. Robinson!"  Evans, because he wasn't that familiar to movie audiences then and especially now, kind of IS Dr. Zaius.
