Neca is making a new Exorcist diorama, maybe they'll take over
Apes?! Everyone LOVED us. Even young kids recognized who we were.
100's of photos taken by people over 2 days. Apes are still loved,
but not #1 or even #10. Lots of, "I grew up with you guys" or "My

Jeff, I added some photos from SDCC 2008 that I found while sifting

Thank you!
There's a not terrible good Canadian show about Hollywood and television
called "The Industry", but it had an episode where they were making a
Hercules ripoff of Xena, and they had watched a new type of Euro new wave cinema
that used no lighting, and a guy asked how it was different from Canadian film
making and he said they use "Bad" Lighting. I think it was a gaffer or
cinematographer who was asking the great James Wong Howe advice for the lighting
of Sounder, and he said there is no Source Lighting. Look at my
films, there is no justification for source. The same is true for
POTA. We don't know what they used for light. I don't remember
any candles and only a torch or two. Don't even get me started on the hand
held camera work these days for films like the Bourne movies. What a cheap
trick to put the audience on edge by churning their stomachs, and cheat them out
of a good action sequence with sloppy camera work. Feck!

I love their Dracula movies.
Some sucked but they were still a pleasure to watch.
Like the classic Kung Fu movies, every frame a painting!

Though I'm sure their may have been some discussions along those lines, I
think we read a lot into the behind the scenes prep that went into the making of
it, maybe analyzing it more after the fact than they did before making it.
And just as an Australopithecus is an ape that took a step up the
evolutionary ladder, though we might no longer consider him an ape, we might
also not consider him fully human.

Yeah just about nothing in Star Wars is technologically realistic.
But then that's a long time ago in a galaxy far far away. But as someone
once asked, If Wile E. Coyote has money enough for all that ACME stuff why
doesn't he just buy dinner?

Dehn fell ill and wasn't able to do the rewrite. The Corringtons were brought in and they completely overhauled and rewrote Dehn's story. They did however maintain several characters like Aldo &
Mendez and plot points such as the Alpha-Omega bomb, Aldo's plotting against Caesar and killing a family member (in Dehn's original it was Lisa, not Cornelius). FOX and Jacobs approved the treatment and commissioned the Corringtons to write the full script. When they delivered it J. Lee Thompson and others were unhappy with it so the Corringtons were fired. By then Dehn had recovered and was brought in to rewrite the script. It was his final version that was filmed. The biggest change that Dehn made was the ending. In the Corrington's version the film ends with an Ape and Human child getting into a violent schoolyard fight. Dehn changed it to the tear on the statue. When the Corrington's saw the film they were very upset about the new ending. They, of course, thought their's was better.

As far as I know, we were the only apes days 2 and
3. Friday: I was Marcus, Trey was Julius, Lacey was Zira, Stephanie was
Nova. Saturday: I was Julius (wearing my son's WET prosthetics from
Friday), Lacey was Nova, and Lexi was a young human female. Apparently on
Sunday there were 2 guys dressed up as gorillas. I never saw them,
but here are pics of them. Stephanie was our photographer, but only took
"in process" pics. All the pics I am getting are off the internet.
We found 1 GREAT pic that appeared somewhere. I'm still trying to refind
it. We're all looking at one guy and Zira is looking dirctly at this other
guys camera.

.htmlMmmm. Those new HD featurettes might just be quickies with a running time of 10 mins ea. Nothing said about: Missing footage from PLANET, and ESCAPE. What about the trailers: are we getting the same ol'ones, yet again. No Mention of TV spots, radio spots? I wonder if it's a true restored edition of CONQUEST or are they going to do an ALIEN 3? Also, with all the room on the Blu disc BOTH versions of CONQUEST should be made available - even via bridging. Also, what's the use of have lossless audio in 5.1 if they are the same 5.1 mixes previously release - that weren't don't as well as they could have been. It didn't say new re-mixes. ...and the price?
At least for it didn't say that CONQUEST was a Blu exclusive so maybe those who can't afford Blu might be able to get a standard release. Well, it all sound "kinda" nice but not what it should
be. As we get closer it will officially posted as a pre-order with maybe more details. -Scott B.

They count on the millions of closet Ape fans
to be sucked in and take the plunge on a
new machine. Just get the new PS3 or
install a Blu-Ray drive in your PC.
It's cheaper. Prices will drop.

Fox sucks at user innovation. Like most companies, they decide what
they're going to give the customer instead of giving the consumer what they
want. BMW is he same way. They spent millions on a technological
suggestion box and only use one or two ideas a year. Not that there aren't
more good ideas than that. But like most physical suggestion boxes, at the
end of the week, they just empty it in the trash.

Yes Billy. Donate your extra footage to Hunter
for the next Rarities disc so we can all enjoy it.

.html After speaking with a contact at FOX it's been confirmed that BOTH
versions of BATTLE will be on the disc via branching.
Also, I inquired about the 5.1 mixes - "are they the same from the
previous release?" The answer was newly re-mixed 5.1 soundtracks were
made for the Blu release. If this indeed true at least there's hope of
more being done to take advantage of what 5.1 can offer.
Also, I inquired about the trailers. Going by what they responded it
seems we will only get what we've had previous.
I also asked if there were any plans to re-visit either the animated or
live action TV series for Blu - the answer was, "for now, no plans."
Hope this answers a few more questions.

.htmlMy guess is since they are STILL pushing that Ape Head at a lower price I don't see them opening returns and filling it with new DVD from newer masters. So that is probably something to stay away from. Truthfully I would even keep away from any newly packaged standard release unless it shows details on what is exactly inside.
I know WARNERS did this with Harry Potter recently. The first film had had a horrible master from the day it was put out. In fact I gave it such a bad review, complete with screen grabs comparing the color to the trailer which had better color - they said I would have to take down the screen caps or be taken off the list for future review copies. (It turned out they used such a low bit rate the film lost its color detail needing a higher bit rate to better handle the darker photography. You see, depending on how their contract is signed with the digital duplicator a higher bit rate can cost more. In
any case, I didn't take down the review and was taken off the list. Seems WB just repackaged the Harry Potters but used old master for the current re-selling. However the Bluray editions are indeed new masters. I bet FOX will do the same for the new POTA releases - unless other stated on the packaging. I can see them putting out the new master for PLANET, and maybe CONQUEST - but not the others. I will try to find out more. Also, the Blu set containing all POTA films is supposed to be packaged in a special way - but I don't know what that may be. As soon as I find out I will forward that to the group. Scott B.

.html Hi,
I did a scan of a small article printed in a retailer's publication
magazine on POTA Film on Blu. Even though at this point we know the
info stated I think it such a piece of crap and PR from the mouth of
FOX itself. Since this is for Retailers and the like it amazing how
people can be taken with slick worlds.
I swear, being involved in the Home Video realm since it began I've
seen it change so much. In the beginning it was new and made up of
those from the theatrical division then through the year those people
retired and newbies took their place not know anything about the
theatrical end, or movies in general. Instead it became populated by
slick side-show like snakes more akin to the porn industy in a classic
sterotype way.
Anyway, it make for a disguesting read. Bring a shovel. The article is
in the PHOTO section under BLU MOCK-UPS It was actually from an adobe
online version of the magazine so I had to do a screen grab.

I don't know.... I just don't know. Back at the end of March, when I first heard of this, I found out what a rush Fox was putting on the creation of the new featurettes, and my first thought was, "It sounds like a total rush job." I suspect the new transfers may have problems.

.htmlThose new HD featurettes might just be quickies with a running time of 10 mins ea. I'm told 12 minutes each. Nothing to get excied about as far as I'm concerned. Things I wanted to see: all new commentaries, including one of those Nick Redman "score" commentaries, and it says all the sequels with have isolated scores, BUT they seem unaware that the 35th anniversary edition of PLANET failed to provide an isolated score.
Maybe there are further details to come?

Mmmm. Those new HD featurettes might just be quickies with a running time of 10 mins ea.
Nothing said about:
Missing footage from PLANET, and ESCAPE.
What about the trailers: are we getting the same ol'ones, yet again. No Mention of TV spots, radio spots?
I wonder if it's a true restored edition of CONQUEST or are they going to do an ALIEN 3?
Also, with all the room on the Blu disc BOTH versions of CONQUEST should be made available - even via bridging.
Also, what's the use of have lossless audio in 5.1 if they are the same 5.1 mixes previously release - that weren't don't as well as they could have been. It didn't say new re-mixes.
...and the price?
At least for it didn't say that CONQUEST was a Blu exclusive so maybe those who can't afford Blu might be able to get a standard release.
Well, it all sound "kinda" nice but not what it should be.
As we get closer it will officially posted as a pre-order with maybe more details.

Hi gang--Joe Russo here--Well,yes they seem to again be using
Mr.Greene quite a bit again (he IS a very rapid-fire
commentator,which is what they always look for). I wasn't contacted
by my ""buddy Kevin Burns when they did the BEHIND documentary,but I
WAS interviewed on-camera for use in the new blu-ray documentaries.To
be honest, I had NO preparation time and it's been quite a few years
since I fired-up my APES I.Q , but they were happy with what I WAS
able to contribute.I tried to get my audio interviews with actors "no
longer here" (i.e,Heston,Franciscus,Gregory,McDowall,Hunter,Chambers)
onto the Blu-rays for audio commentary use,but the producers decided
against using them,perhaps because some of the audio quality was
substandard (they were mostly done on cassettes in 1983-86).In any
event, I am just as curious as all of you as to see exactly what's
been done here!

.htmlI think FOX is doing what other companies do - they used the same people for whatever reason and then re-use the water like it came from a swamp. I've experienced it before as a consultant. They are also taking the easy way out. Personally I don't care about newly produced material. The only people I would want to hear from are now dead. FOX missed the boat years ago. There is still old stuff in their archives that should be addressed. Unless it comes from the actual production people or those who acted in the films I feel it's all a one time view or listen.
They seem to avoid in really search their vaults for stuff. But what really sickens me is we get glimpses of what is there, showing up in documentaries. Trailers and behind the scenes material. I will be furious if the prologue from ESCAPE shows up not at bonus material but part of a documentary, edited. - Scott

John, that would have been wonderful. Burton's movie stank big time. I think I'd mentioned this before, but when I first heard of the 2001 APES I thought that it would've been just that--it would've continued the story after BATTLE. Instead, what we got was an awful 're-imagining' --there were no references to the original characters (Zira, Cornelius, Taylor, Armando, Caesar, etc.) and personally, as far as I'm concerned, the 2001 version was a confusing, listless movie. It deserves being in the cut-out bin. Zach -------Original Message----- --

have actually gotten better. Just more proof of the Hollywood stagnation that perpetuates flogging crap.

Subject: [pota] Added an article on
Bluray POTA
Hi, I did a scan of a small article printed in a retailer's publication
magazine on POTA Film on Blu. Even though at this point we know the
info stated I think it such a piece of crap and PR from the mouth of
FOX itself. Since this is for Retailers and the like it amazing how
people can be taken with slick worlds. I swear, being involved in the
Home Video realm since it began I've seen it change so much. In the
beginning it was new and made up of those from the theatrical division
then through the year those people retired and newbies took their place
not know anything about the theatrical end, or movies in general. Instead
it became populated by slick side-show like snakes more akin to the porn
industy in a classic sterotype way. Anyway, it make for a disguesting
read. Bring a shovel. The article is in the PHOTO section under BLU
MOCK-UPS It was actually from an adobe online version of the magazine so I
had to do a screen grab. -Scott B.

.htmlThere are no missing pieces from Planet. The film we see today is the same film that was released in 1968. Nothing needs to be restored. Any scenes left on the cutting room floor were left out of the final cut due to creative decisions made by Franklin Schaffner and Arthur P. Jacobs. While it would be great to include those deleted scenes as a bonus feature, no one should tamper with Schaffer's and Jacob's masterpiece.

If you're going to put that much into it
then go the extra mile and shoot on film.
I don't want to hear "Well, we spent all our
budget on costumes and makeup." Then
you need to get a bigger budget. Don't
cheat the customer. The customer is king.
Don't do it half-assed and ride the coattails
of a classic. Take a lesson from Burton.
That's what Fox did to all the sequels.

You got that right.
If you ever want publicity
just put together a press kit.
Reporters like nothing better
than to have their work done for them.
Well, unless of course it's an open bar.

.htmlThose are NOT apes from the films - they're new guys. In fact, that creepy orangutan is there. I guess FOX hasn't changes - they still don't know who Roddy is. ...and there's something else I don't get - if BLU is supposed to hold sooooooooo much data WHY THE HELL are there 5 discs?! BENEATH & ESCAPE should fit on one disc easy without ruining quality. I can see PLANET with all the extras on one disc. Truthfully both CONQUEST and BATTLE could be on one disc since they are supposed to be used digital branching - which saves room. With all this extra space on each disc they should be SAVING THE CONSUMER MONEY. At the very least, it should be 4 discs which would knock off about $30 from the set.
What's the point of pushing all this room on discs if 1. The studios don't take advantage to put more stuff on the disc or 2. Condense the amount of disc in a set to bring down the price.
Sorry, this smells. Scott B.

For the reason you said: if they released it as a 2-disc set, no one
would pay $160 for it. It doesn't really cost them that much to put
it on more discs, and they can justify their price (to themselves)
this way.
As it stands now, I doubt that I'll be getting this set, since I don't

PLANET with all the extras on one disc. Truthfully both CONQUEST and

branching - which saves room. With all this extra space on each disc
they should be SAVING THE CONSUMER MONEY. At the very least, it should
be 4 discs which would knock off about $30 from the set.
What's the point of pushing all this room on discs if 1. The studios
don't take advantage to put more stuff on the disc or 2. Condense
the amount of disc in a set to bring down the price.

"In any event, I am just as curious as all of you as to see exactly what's
been done here!"
My curiosity is dropping like a stone, not about the transfers or the unedited CONQUEST, but based on what I've seen of "Brand new featurettes" on other recent Fox DVDs, these things are nothing more than quick, talking heads fluff pieces that are hardly worth the 10 to 12 minutes you spend watching them.
Still, I'm not yet ready to be as negative as someone else here about Fox, but the fact I see no indication of any kind of new commentary track(s) is really pissing me off. I was depressed yesterday, especially considering this release is little more than three months away and there's probably little that can be done to get Fox to do more. And did I read it wrong, or are these things going to be sold in that damn head again?!? I don't want that! I want
original poster images!
I think I'll try to get a bunch of relatives together to get this thing for me as a Christmas present so I don't have to pay for it!

Well, thank the Lawgiver we don't have to buy these things in that damn ugly head! (And by the way, don't count on the preview version of CONQUEST or any of the new extras being in the "Heads" Fox is still trying to sell.)
Looks like the hardcover book has already been written. I really don't plan on seeing or reading anything new in it, but maybe I'll be surprised.
Also looks like the folks at Apemania got their pictures took for the images on the box and discs. CAN'T SAY I'M TOO CRAZY ABOUT THAT! Is there something wrong with actual photos from the films?
You know, I don't think the dummies at Fox could ever -- even if given two thousand years to do it -- make something to my complete satisfaction in regards to how APES should be presented, and I'm at the point of not caring anymore. If it were up to me, PLANET would get a Blu-ray release all its own, then, I think at BENEATH's 40th anniversary, you'd get a box set of the sequels.

Hunter Well, it's the 21st Century, Hunter, and it's about time you threw out that old black and white Dupont you're still watching!
Seriously though, LCD 16x9 displays that will show you 1080p are getting mighty cheap. Even ones sold at Wal-mart look pretty good. The next generation of Blu-ray players should be out just before Christmas, and I expect prices in the $250 to $350 price range, cheaper if on sale. With the economy as bad as it is now, they better make this stuff cheap.
As far as people who simply can't afford or refuse to upgrade, I figure there's someone here that can copy the Blu-ray stuff to standard DVD. Fox loves when you do that kind of stuff!

.htmlThere are no missing pieces from Planet. The film we see today is the same film that was released in 1968. Nothing needs to be restored. Any scenes left on the cutting room floor were left out of the final cut due to creative decisions made by Franklin Schaffner and Arthur P. Jacobs. While it would be great to include those deleted scenes as a bonus feature, no one should tamper with Schaffer's and Jacob's masterpiece. No offense, but... WHAT GENIUS WROTE THIS?!?

PLANET only needs to be restored in terms of the best possible picture and sound. There are NO cut scenes that need to be restored. What you see now is Franklin J. Schaffner's final edit. Yes, there was stuff shot that didn't make the cut that was given for Jerry Goldsmith to score, and it would be nice -- if it's still in the vaults -- to see it, but NOT re-edited into Schaffner's version. NO WAY, NO HOW! Try to understand that not only would that be artistically wrong, but the Director's Guild wouldn't allow Fox to do it!

Listen, I've got an idea... if this Blu-ray release isn't precisely what we want it to be, let's get a bunch of us together, get on a bus, preferably a school bus, drive to LA to the Fox corporation, and blow the whole damn place sky high and finally put an end to this madness? How about that, Mr. Bosco? Of course, you must realize we blow ourselves up along with all of Fox, otherwise this would merely be a selfish gesture. We must be ready to be martyrs.

Yep, but they won't.
Price of new TV + price of BR player + price of Apes set = more money
than I can or want to spend at this time. Especially since I do not
plan to rebuy all of my existing movies on Blu-Ray, which means I'd be
buying all of that primarily just for the Apes films that (sadly) no

Hunter OK, Hunter, don't buy them then, wait until the future. You know from APES the future is always worth waiting for, and from the news of the world of late, it looks like the near-future of this planet is sure going to be a rosy one.

.htmlFor those of you that have recently watched the APES films in HD on MonstersHD:
Satellite Now Blu-ray Quality? Definitely not!
Posted July 31, 2008 12:41 PM by Josh Dreuth
Dish Network announced this morning that they would soon be offering a total of 114 national HD channels, and to celebrate the announcement they would, starting tomorrow, offer the Will Smith film 'I am Legend' in 1080p as a pay-per-view offering. They went further to suggest that because it was 1080p, the presentation would be "same as Blu-ray Disc quality". Of course, anyone with a Blu-ray player knows this definitely can't be true.
While both satellite broadcasts and Blu-ray movies can=2
0display 1080p video, the similarities end there. In order to conserve broadcast space, companies like DishNetwork and DirecTV will limit video bitrate to less than half of what a typical Blu-ray title requires for perfect video reproduction. This often results in pixelation during scenes with a lot of movement, which is definitely not a characteristic of Blu-ray.
Video aside, audio is something that can't even compare. Even the best satellite broadcasts only use 5.1 Dolby Digital for audio soundtracks. These tracks are easily trumped by PCM, Dolby TrueHD, and DTS-HD Master Audio often found on Blu-ray discs.
The fact remains, neither satellite, cable, fiber-optic, nor any other broadcast medium can compare to the high definition experience of Blu-ray. The bogus statement made by DishNetwork only adds to consumer confusion about high definition offerings and is a desperate attempt to ride on Blu-ray's coattails. Much the same as claims of "high definition" digital downloads must be heavily scrutinized, so should claims by television broadcasters attempting to pull off the same trick.
DishNetwork did not respond to requests for clarification on their statement.

What would be wrong with seeing a different version? Will the director turn
over in his grave? Movies like STRIPES have the deleted scenes restored all
the time. Is the fact that the director passed on a reason not to restore the
film? The original silent LOST WORLD was restored when additional footage was
found many many years later.
