It didn't pass "Rio" ($ 484 million) and become Fox's top movie so it will have to settle for # 2. Thanks to the performance of the new "Twilight" movie ($488 million so far after a little over a week) "Rise" is pushed out of the Top 10 for the year as well. For the "Rise" sequel the apes are going to need better abs. But it is the top non-sequel, non- kid flick of the year and beat all the comic book movies. Also to be considered is that "Rise" didn't benefit from 3D prices or aggressive promotion like the big boys. So it's time to celebrate a box office performance well done. But we're going to celebrate the Heston way, with a Bud Light.

I thought the "madhouse" line was worked in the context, and it was in the background. The "damn dirty ape" is the most in your face but it works for me because it leads directly to the payoff (another reference, but one I think fans would've missed if it wasn't there, the first word spoke by an ape). People complain about Malfoy but his character served it's purpose and I thought it was fun to have the A hole (the character, not Felton, who was fine in the role) say those lines.
> What else was there? Caesar building the Statue of Liberty? Why not? For a movie that some fans feel went too far astray from classic POTA it's a nice little reminder. I could've done without some of the names but I think "Dodge" is the only one that's spoken. "Cornelia" is fine, so what? The names that are nods to people who worked on classic Apes, those are good tributes. Probably Buck Kartalian got a kick out of it. I loved the Jacobs reference.

Thanks Haristas, funny you should mention it, but I believe the movies here are sometimes in English with Japanese subtitles. I do know that in some cases they are also dubbed; however, in all honesty I probably wouldn't go see Rise in a Japanese theater due to it being way too expensive. I think it costs about $12 to $15 but don't quote me. As much as we love Japan, the culture, the people, the food and everything are really wonderful, and it has been a great experience, but things out on the economy can be pretty expensive.

I saw Rise at a US military theater and it was full to capacity--of course I went on opening day and everyone was really excited. It was with a bunch of Marines and their family members. Funny aside to this, I don't know if you ever read any posts on imdb (the Internet Movie Database)about Rise but there's this really insane and angry bruins fan who calls himself StanleyCupbruins and he's a troll. He bashes Apes fans whenever he gets the chance. He has an on-going rant about how much Rise has made and he recently said "loners and geeks everywhere are rejoicing." In another post he said that the only people who went to see the movie were a bunch of "wimps, loners,losers, Un-American blah, blah,blah." He also said that if he had gone to see the film he would have physically assaulted the people in line. I have to laugh at his comments because I really would have liked to have seen him try this with the Marines that I saw the movie with--Hee Hee. But its funny, I would never ever type anything as rude or belligerant as this guy has been posting. It was really quite uncalled for and the shame is that they can't really censor the guy. I chalk it up to someone being immature or possibly someone who has always just been a bully.But I do giggle at his comment about bullying people at a Rise opening, etc.

But I like Apes fans, because they are intelligent and don't resort to the kind of shenanigans that this guy tries to provoke. I was really quite impressed as most of the Apefans who commented back to the guy didn't lose their cool or get too hot under the collar or fly off the handle as this is what trolls are looking for.

Cheers.

My vision for a sequel is that the humans have messed themselves up with the plague so they're having to pay for what they've done--reap what they've sewn, etc. Kind of like paying for their past sins--so to speak. Will the apes be merciful? The humans are kind of asking for a new start, but since it's still early in the apes saga, the apes are just starting to take over and Caesar may have to decide what to do about the humans--should he trust them? Should he let a race that essentially destroyed themselves live or will he just tell them that they had their chance and flubbed it up. While Caesar is trying to make this decision, I'm pretty sure Koba will be there to try and influence the decision or possibly challenge Caesar's power with the goal of getting rid of the humans once and for all. Caesar saw Will Rodman as being like his father. If Will dies from the disease will Caesar go through the stages of mourning--such as anger, denial, etc.? Could he get angry enough after Will's death to blame humans for it--humans wanted to do the experimentation in the first place that led to their own demise.
> Will he be angry with Will for killing himself and the human race?
> Perhaps a twist and play on the title "Penance" would be that in the beginning, it's the humans who are asking for "penance" but in the end it's the apes who need it because they end up making a decision that they will have to pay for later--like messing with nuclear weapons or something. Perhaps Koba gets hold of a warhead, etc. to fight the humans with...etc., etc.

A title for Apes just has to avoid silliness like Revenge, Peace and Tranquility on the..,War for the Planet of the Apes, maybe, Ascention, Revolution, Fight for , the "of the" rule limits a person badly. A title that suggests a War of Supremecy can be and is tough. WoW this gets annoying, Take Care, John M.

It is the Genesis literally as I can tell by what we are told so the other route is to describe a Battle sort of since it will be presumably more a war for supremacy or war to stay alive film. Its also a film that either wipes out mankind or deals with it one way or the other. Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes. Corny. Civil War on the Planet of the Apes...AAAAHHHH John M.
