I'd be satisfied if it were just compelling, tense and unnerving.  Forget overly violent or profane -- that's what gets you the R rating.

Sounds like Akon.  I've never been into cosplay.

But even if I was, they last place I'd want to do

it would be in a convention center packed with

so many thousands of people that even their

huge A/C units can't keep up.  It has to be

especially bad on guy dressed as transformers.

The only ones really dressed for it are the girls

dressed as super heroes.  But in the theaters

they're so cold they're freezing to death.

Jess, now imagine that times 10!  That's Comic-Con.  And then as a costumed character, you can only walk 2 or 3 steps before getting stopped for pictures.  And sometimes that would last over 5 mins.

Let's face it.  POTA would never get a G Rating today.

You don't see G Rated films with bare-assed scenes,

forced mating and thermonuclear destruction.  Not to

mention lobotomies, human taxidermy and throat shots.

How they got a G in an era when Midnight Cowboy and

M*A*S*H were rated X is beyond me. Never again.

Yeah true, but to get that kind of film the studios tend to go for it by the inclusion of all you mentioned especially for sci-fi and fantasy, and crime dramas. Im not looking for graphic anything just truth, and truth these days require an R rating for the most part. John M.

An an animal lover I wouldn't want to see too much abuse overly portrayed to make a point.  It would lose any sense of entertainment.   When the original APE films were made certain imposed restrictions but at the same time forced the filmmakers to be more creative in terms of getting the point across in a way that would satisfy a wide audience range.  Our generation used out minds to fill in the blanks with imagination which is why these films are so personal and loved - like reading a book the film experience was more personal then unlike now.  We may have been labeled the "me" generation but at least we had insight, and imagination unlike today's "i" generation who is shallow, lacks insight, and needs to be medicated to have patience, and deal with anything negative.  I'd rather be apart of the "analog" generation over the "digital" any day.  I feel films today reflect too much of the chemically treated misfits of humanity who can't operate within the daily grind without a trip to the pharmacy in order to be human.  Ultra violent, insensitive, stories with crude characters devoid of intelligent dialog propagate movies digitally patched together with more technical savvy than written intellect populate today's theaters as the norm.  Add to that "actors" who aren't that but rather heads and bodies that are manufactured to sell more magazine covers than tickets don't exactly inspire me to pay $15 for a seat.  FOX's track record for remakes/reboots is too low for me to get excited, or look forward to anything even remotely passable.  There is a higher percentage of finding a higher grade mentally challenged youth (retarded person to our generation) performing a satisfying job at MacDonalds than FOX exec green lighting, then overseeing a good project come into effect. We may all live in hope but reality must sharpen the vision so clearly we should wait with less enthusiasm and anticipation, and more concern and apprehension - remember, in the end Caesar's statue did cry. - Scott M --- On Wed, 4/7/10, Haristas@... <Haristas@...> wrote: From: Haristas@... <Haristas@...> Subject: [pota] Re: Man, I wish it could be rated "R".

It's a link to a movie on You Tube, a Made-for-TV movie from 1973 that's never been on video. It has chimps in it and, with the impending CAESAR, if you've never seen it, and can watch it in this form (divided into seven parts), I highly recommend it. Some of you older folks may remember it.

To me, this is barely Planet of the Apes; it's more like Planet of That 70's Show, starring two intelligent chimps...complete with bad music.

WHAT?!!!!!!!!

 

Did you just say Jerry Goldsmith wrote bad music?!!!!!

Oh, the pain... the pain.

Your obviously not a musician. The wrecking crew did the basic rythm parts. The music is perfect and not at all kitsch. John M.

Why not in CANADA. Nooooo.....

Seriously. Every time there is a screening at any theater even remotely
near where I happen to be, something always comes up and I'm prevented
from seeing it. I was lucky enough to see Conquest and Battle in the
theaters in their runs, but POTA itself has always eluded me. <Sigh>.

I received the Forbidden Zine on Friday, but had to wait until Saturday
to read it. And then I was able to read in all in one great sitting.

I had high expectations based on advance info, but the zine was all that
was promised.

I can see why the printing costs where so high. This is by far the
highest grade of paper and color I have ever seen for a 'zine'.
Newsstand magazines do not compare. This is "Thick" quality paper stock!

I'm not going to comment to much about the stuff already discussed by
others that have reviewed the zine, so I'll start of with the things
that caught me by surprise. Many here know that I'm a big fan of Ty's
"Revolution" comic series. So it was a special treat for me to find many
of the conceptual drawings that led to the final covers. It's cool to
see the tweaks and modifications made as it changes hands and gets
revised until it hits the printers. (Perhaps we'll see this for the
covers of the Forbidden Zine itself someday.)

Keeping with the "Art" theme, "Painting POTA" by Graham "Hilly" Hill is
up next. We've all enjoyed his work before and he's even shown a few of
his works before as they have progressed from one stage to another, but
his detailed description of the many phases of his "Councilor Zaius"
piece was great. If nothing else, it shows just how much work goes into
creating these POTA masterpieces.

The article on the upcoming "Conspiracy" graphic novel just makes the
wait all the more anxious. The best part of course was the fantastic
"Complications" artwork by E.M. Gist. Wow! To be honest, I think it is
the best piece coming out of this venture and even outdoes the art they
have already released. If this is the kind of art that will be in
"Conspiracy", we'll be in for a great novel. I do hope 'Blam!' finalize
the release details soon.

Another article that was a bit of an eye opener regarding the amount of
work needed to create POTA inspired creation is Jessica's Costuming
article. As she mentions, it looks a lot easier than it is. I admit that
a lot of the things she mentioned are over my head as my sewing
experience is limited to sewing back a few loose buttons. But we can now
appreciate the real work that goes on for both costumers like herself
and even the kind work that went into making the original movie
costumes. The difference being is that Jessica is doing ALL the work
herself.

Neil Moxham's POTApedia article was a reminder for me to get off my
tuckus and see if there is anything I can contribute myself. The wiki
will never answer the many things that are in dispute among fans, but it
is important that we at least have all the facts archived. This is
especially important for a franchise like POTA where we seem to lose
those few people every year who had personal experience of the original
prodution as it took place. Soon they will all be gone and then projects
like the wiki will be the only authoritative sources we have.

It was nice seeing "Begins" again, and its been so long since I've last
read it, it was nearly 'new' to me. Nice work Michael and Neil. Reminds
me that I should also revisit Gideon too.

But the best. The BEST, was the awesome 'Kirby' style GENESIS comic by
Neil. I thought I had seen it all with the many different illustrations
and styles that he's treated us over the years, but he really nailed the
vintage style aimed for here. I really felt just like I was back in the
70's. Can't say how much I'm looking to seeing this story continue, not
only for the art, but for the plot being presented as well.

Now if we can only be assured that we see another Forbidden Zine. I know
that the reception has been lackluster. The price point is high, but
understandable because of the print quality. As much as I like the
quality and would be willing to pay for another just like it, I would be
willing to compromise if it brings more readers. Time will tell.

A big thank you to all who contributed articles, art or helped out in
any other way. But and even bigger thanks to Michael and Neil, for
accomplishing what they set out to do.

Dario

...and it was good too! I thought it was pretty damn AWESOME as well!!

I admit that a lot of the things she mentioned are over my head as my sewing experience is limited to sewing back a few loose buttons. But we can now appreciate the real work that goes on for both costumers like herself and even the kind work that went into making the original movie costumes. The difference being is that Jessica is doing ALL the work herself. Neil Moxham's POTApedia article was a reminder for me to get off my tuckus and see if there is anything I can contribute myself. The wiki will never answer the many things that are in dispute among fans, but it is important that we at least have all the facts archived. This is especially important for a franchise like POTA where we seem to lose those few people every year who had personal experience of the original prodution as it took place. Soon they will all be gone and then projects like the wiki will be the only authoritative sources we have. It was nice seeing "Begins" again, and its been so long since I've last read it, it was nearly 'new' to me. Nice work Michael and Neil. Reminds me that I should also revisit Gideon too. But the best. The BEST, was the awesome 'Kirby' style GENESIS comic by Neil. I thought I had seen it all with the many different illustrations and styles that he's treated us over the years, but he really nailed the vintage style aimed for here. I really felt just like I was back in the 70's. Can't say how much I'm looking to seeing this story continue, not only for the art, but for the plot being presented as well. Now if we can only be assured that we see another Forbidden Zine. I know that the reception has been lackluster. The price point is high, but understandable because of the print quality. As much as I like the quality and would be willing to pay for another just like it, I would be willing to compromise if it brings more readers. Time will tell. A big thank you to all who contributed articles, art or helped out in any other way. But and even bigger thanks to Michael and Neil, for accomplishing what they set out to do. Dario

I got to admit Harastas, that you came to musics(weather mine or Jerrys) defence because you know to insult music to some people is like insulting some guys favorite football team. Its all like I said subjective and I and the rest of you are Apes fans so are usaully granted alittle slack. I bought up Kiss (because most people tend to pick on Kiss proponents on many web sites and its silly). To insult others tastes in music is really neanderthal and infantile. Though I really dont mind some early Kiss. Im a typical Beethoven, Beatles, Beach Boys(Smile,Pet Sounds), King Crimson, Herb Alpert and TJB and Gershwin lover. Goldsmith and Rosenman are great, and Tom Scotts music for Conquest I thought was genius esp. when he only had a small brass section 15 or less to do it. Sorry for ranting, I just woke up and saw I was insulted for my taste so I felt like posting my opinion the best I could before I got my coffea...John M.

Well if your serious I could start an argument but forget it. Im not going to plaster my likes and dislikes all over the web here. My tastes are very conventional and very eclectic. Im a musician and trained in music and its a shame if you cant tell the irony and compositional style Goldsmith was using in Escape. Its the reverse of Planet and he did it wonderfully. You want me to get in to Aeloian, dORIAN CADANCES AND ALL THE TECHNICAL JARGON THAT GOLDSMITH USES JUST TO BACK UP A POINT OF THE SERIOUSNESS OF HIS STYLE FOR ESCAPE. Its just a matter of taste. But I guess you think Kiss(the group) is great.{ The cap. lock got stuck and I didnt feel like correcting it}. As a musician you really should not question a piece of music it is an art and very very subjective, except for Kiss..HaHa.

I have to agree with you here. All the sequels from Escape forward have a TV movie look to them. Escape it is even more pronounced than the others because of the contemporary setting.

However, the same can be said of many movies from that era. This was the pre-Star Wars period and studios made many films with modest budgets. It wasn't all tent pole films and blockbusters back then like it is today.

Escape and Battle have a TV look to it but, as you know I like Conquest, Conquest has a more documentary feel to it with the moving Bruce Surtees trademark camera work and the closeup riot scenes not unlike the news reports of the sixties, even though it was also done because of budget constraints..

I was talking about HELLO DOLLY!

 

I think it was set around the turn of the century or a little later, not 1890.

Well according to wikipedia is was set in 1890: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hello,_Dolly!_(film

But even if wikipedia is wrong and the film is set 10 years later at the turn of the century, the use of the stairs is historically inaccurate since they didn't start building the current terminal building until 1903 and it wasn't completed until 1913.

Raymond Burr and Kim were good friends.

They were doing a play together at the

Pasadena Playhouse when she was

discovered by a scout for David O. Selznick.

Early KISS Rocks!  Though I am confused as to

why they were chosen to be a Kid's Show Band

about sex.  What are they going to sing?  Lick It

Up?  Cold Gin?  Meet You In The Ladies Room?

I understand the appeal of the theatrics.  At least

I understood that before I understood the lyrics. I

just wonder if "The Kids" will think Baby Driver is

Good Point!

I was just thinking about that the

other day.  They say never meet

your heroes, because you'll only

be disappointed.  When you stop

to think about it, it's not the person

but the persona of a larger than life

character, or a carefully manufactured

public image that gets worshiped, and

not the person themselves.  Maybe it's

because I'm not a star struck type that

I don't feel like it's a big deal to meet a

celebrity.  Kim was really the only one

who had that effect on me.  And she did

not disappoint.  She was just as nice in

person as she seemed to be on camera.

Maybe if you got to know someone well

enough to be disappointed in them, they

would start to seem more like a person.

John Lydon comes to mind.  Now that

Malcolm is dead, he has nothing but nice

things to say about him.  That's not the

John I know.  He and Henry should

be great friends . . . if they had any.  ; )

I know Henry "Hank Garfield" Rollins.

And I know Edie ButterBrickle-Simon.,

aka Toe Jam.  And to be honest neither

has the right to insult the other about

music.  Henry is a dick, so I expect that.

But Greg was the real genius of Black

Flag.  What he invented was way over all

our heads.  It's jazz but it's not. It's rock

but it's not.  He came up with something

original.  Henry just happened to be last

of the four singers Black Flag had.  And his

band is just a poor imitation of Black Flag.

Edie just took Ricky Lee Jones' vocals and

put it over a Jerry Garcia guitar line, because

all of the New Bohemians are hardcore Dead

Heads who worship the Grateful Dead and

collect cassettes of board mixes from shows

like Red Rocks ' 78.  She's probably still just

be just that if I hadn't told her to stop wearing

that stupid beret, 'cause that's what she

looked like, and it was a little too obvious.

I took them out of that case and put them in individual DVD cases. I took out the book too and just put the case in a storage closet.

And thanks to you and Rory for the French lobby cards. They look great.

NO scanner, but going through them I noticed that 2 of them were my German cards. I kept the foreign cards together because they were the last Apes stuff I ever bought in 1980 and I never filed them like the rest of my stuff(just put them in my closet). Ill find a way soon because I have alot of cool stuff that I talk about and Im getting sick of telling everyone and not proving it. My kids will be getting me a "great" scanner soon. John M.

Thanks again William!

Does anyone know anything about the two publications, Apronas Planet and Comics Unlimited. CU looks like it was from the UK.

Looking at the FOX site, I'm annoyed that they didn't feature POTA on one of the posters. It's one of the most iconic films in their history yet the did a poster for 'Independence Day'. Strange.

BTW There is a great article from yesterday's LA Times that cites POTA as one of the films that save the studio in the '60s.

And to sellabrate, er, I mean celebrate, they are gearing up for a big year long promotion, including a new website: www.fox75th.com . The link below has a list of some of the DVDs that will be coming out this year. "Rocky Horror" on blu-ray? I'm there! Nothing Apes-wise so far (well, except for filming a new movie) but we don't want to bite the hand that feeds Cornelius. Happy Anniversary, Fox! We wouldn't be here without you.

Which paperback version of the novel do you have? It is this one?

It has the ape head on the cover, and somewhere there's the raft. Back cover has the cage scene with Taylor and Nova. It's not in perfect condition by any means, but it's not falling apart or anything. Just shows the unavoidable age signs when a book hasn't been kept in immaculate condition. I didn't see any tears or stains or missing pages or anything like that.
