"A Clockwork Orange". Apes are captured by the mutants, who force them to watch the original POTA movies. When they get to POTA2001, the apes crack, their minds gone, no doubt by some unsimian torture.

Maybe they like it because they are similar, sun metaphors. "Dawn" is fine because it reminds of "2001" 's "Dawn of Man" and the director is a Kubrick man. He compared "Rise" to "Sparticus" and the sequel to "Full Metal Jacket".



I hope the third one's not EYES WIDE SHUT. DR. STRANGELOVE maybe.

Don't worry---I've sat on the reels for what must be decades.These things aren't like the old black and white reels that used to blow up are they? Sometimes with these things, the footage is actually slightly different when people have assumed it's identical to the main feature.It would be good to check it, anyway.John, Scrolls.

Over the past weeks I've made two genuine attempts to watch Burton's Apes again, but simply lost the will to live 30 mins in.I liked this movie the first time I saw it, but now, in the cold light of day, it is,to me, far less than the sum of all its parts.Actually, Charlton Heston may be the best bit.To purge my mind, I re-watched RISE, with Wyatt's commentary.What a film.It improves with every viewing(which is saying something!) and you see new bits every time.The look of relief and weary joy Caesar shows at the very end before he leaps up the tree is something I missed before.If DOTPOTA can properly build on this, it will be some movie.John, Scrolls.

I used to have BENEATH on Super 8 but I'd given it to a cousin when I purchased the VHS tape.  I had a projector at that time too but with the advent of VHS recorder/players, they took the place of the old reel-and-projector technology.   BENEATH was very heavily edited, as I recall, it was mainly situated on the last thirty minutes of the film than anything else.    There are ways to transfer old reel movies over to DVD disc, I've had to take some old home movies I'd made back in the mid-Seventies to one of the Walgreen's stores and they in turn sent them to a firm associated with the store...in any case, I had them put onto one DVD pretty cheaply, considering how many I'd taken back then.   Zach            -------Original Message-------   From: Jeff K.

OT: when I met Ray Bradbury in 1999 during a space commercialization conference in Los Angeles, I did NOT ask for his autograph but instead opted for a nice brief chat. Why? In 1991 when I met Charlton Heston in Charlottesville, Va. I focused mainly on getting a picture with him and also his autograph in my POTA book (which I'd purchased weeks before, especially for that purpose). There consequently wasn't time for much of a conversation with "Colonel Taylor" as a result. I subsequently vowed never to repeat that mistake ever again. It will remain one of my life's regrets, as he was and likely remains my favorite actor of all time (and was thrilled to hear me say that). Now if I meet someone inspirational, I ask for an inspirational quote, NOT an authograph. Believe me, it'll carry you further in various ways. :-)

A good weekend to all from Houston, TX (where Colonel Taylor likely trained)...

I have all 5 apes films on super 8 in color and sound and also in Black and white. The BandW are 18 frames per second and the color 24 FPS. Theirs nothing new or different other than trying to make a story out of 11 minutes of film. They are all Pink now even though I kept them nice and hidden in a dark and cool room. Use to have marathons in my backyard in the summers of 73-75 and played them on my friends side of his house which was about 25X30 ft. So much fun then but the color with sound cost 25 dollars each, alot of dough then. Take care , John M.

I agree.I think RISE will stand the test of time and will be a true platform for future Apes movies.Burton's Apes is, in places, toe curlingly awful to watch now.Back in 2001 I was just so glad Apes were back, I'd have welcomed anything and I got swept up with the publicity.But it's just an abysmal failure on nearly every level---especially when we've since seen an Apes movie done right.The fact that it was Burton's Apes, not RISE, that got the merchandise is just not fair!

When will the remastering of POTA be available on Blu-ray? I've read here over the past half a year that a digitally remastered version of POTA exists, but has only aired on t.v. or cable. I haven't contacted Fox to ask them when it'll be available on Blu Ray. Might anyone here have an idea? Either way, my order from Amazon shipped today.

dear group, here are some neat ape photos. from william.<.html

Here's a video interview about POTA with Corinna Bechko and Gabriel Hardman, the husband and wife comics creators who will captain BOOM!'s flagship POTA series come September. Fans have dug their miniseries and now they're going to play in the era of Cornelius and Zira so it will be interesting.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nO8_0eTl5h0

Damian Couceiro is doing the art when BOOM!'s flagship POTA comic jumps to a new continuity in September. He did the art for BOOM!'s "Rise" prequel, which was online but I don't think ever published. So here it is for those who want to see his ape-bilities.

BOOM! hasn't said they are wrapping up the current series, I'm just assuming. There's usually only one main series. Maybe it will continue as a miniseries.

Anyone who questions that BOOM! is heading toward classic territory, these covers are for you. Am I finally going to have to buy multiple covers?!

I'm going by "POTA Revisited". We've been depending on "POTA Revisited" all these years and it's all lies! Nobody buy that book!
Anyway, I got the month right.

Imdb isn't always right. Actually, I have more faith in "POTA Revisited". Where's the proof?
And while we're at it, where did Fox get the date for Boulle's book publication?
The 50th anniversary is coming up. We need to be release date warriors!

IMBD notes that it opened in New York on June 29th and the rest of the country on June 30th. Since there is no notation for a seperate LA opening, the film most likely opened in LA on June 30th.

I was their at opening day Wendsday at the 2 pm showing or their abouts. Never knew that the Embassy was the theater of review, I missed that one, but my father and I were their and the cheering was deafining and the quality was fantastic. The train ride home was great thinking about when it will hit the Island(Long Island). Saw it in 1972 about 15 times, crazy huh? Take care, John M.

I thought Battle premiered in early July because it opened wide with POTA 68 and at some theaters with the rest of the sequels. Must check it out. John M.

I searched the LA Times website and its archives don't go back that far. The other newspaper in LA back then was the Herald-Examiner which went out of business 20 years ago so it doesn't have a website to search.

Oddly, the review on the Variety website, says it was published December 31st, 1971 which was before the film was shot.

It is a mystery. The only thing that is known for sure is that the film opened in New York on June 29th, 1972. If anyone has anything like an old newspaper review or ad prior to that, please let us know. Thanks.

Battle didn't open in New York City until mid-July when the film went into general release. However, unlike Conquest, most sources state Battle was released on June 15, 1973 in other parts of the country.

Fox has scheduled their sequel "Dawn of the POTA" for 5/23/14. It's still damn, dirty early but what competish could it be facing? So far scheduled for the merry month of May is the sequel to the as yet unveiled "Amazing Spiderman" on 5/2/14. Paramount has just announced they are moving their "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" reboot to May 16 2014, where it will square off against an unnamed Marvel movie ("Ant Man"?). On 5/23, "Dawn" takes on Adam Sandler in "Pixels", a kind of "Roger Rabbit" for famous video game characters. And on May 30th Pixar's "The Good Dinosaur" will be unveiled.
OK, OK, not so bad. "Dawn" is gonna make them wish they were never born, er, filmed. Will the apes rule the summer? So far the only other titles are "Capt. America 2" and Spielberg's sci-fi "Robopocalypse" in April (when "Dawn" should've been scheduled so it could be Ape-ril) and the sequels to "X-Men: First Class" and "Transformers" in July. "Rise" whupped "X-Men" and "Capt. America" but "Transformers" is the one to beat based on past performance. Everything else is an unknown quantity. No "Harry Potter"s or "Pirates" or Batmans that summer. But there's still a whole lot of scheduling and shifting to be done, so we'll see. Less than two years to go.

Both you and James are correct. Battle did not open in Metro NY until later in JULY(I remember waiting and wondering why it was at more remote places). Conquest ofcourse opened on Wednesday(if its June 29th) cause I saw it at the Embassy like I previously stated on opening day at around 2 pm.
I have copys from microfilm that I made in college in 1977 and I must find them for innacuracies.Take care, John M

Does anyone have an idea of what happened to this
site? I can't even access yuku.com

Maybe I should trouble shoot deeper or.........

Per one of the members:

Last night, for approximately 8-10 hours, the Yuku network was unexpectedly off-line due to a failure of Amazon Web Services that affected not only Yuku, but many popular web sites like Quora, Pinterest, Dropbox and Heroku. We apologize for this outage, and wanted to assure the community that we had our staff working overnight to bring the Yuku network back online as quickly as possible. According to Amazon, most of the connectivity has been restored, but the impact of the outage on the Yuku network is still being resolved by our engineers. We will provide you with additional updates as they become available and we appreciate your patience as we work to fully restore our network.

I don't know about that, but for the longest time I heard about

additional scenes I didn't remember in Battle.  I just heard

people talking about them. Then in a TV cut I saw the

additional scenes.  There have been other movies

I've scene this happen to in TV cuts that aired.

I love it when my Apes films come bracketed by Marvel goodness.2011 was my favourite movie year ever. Thor, X-Men First Class, RISE and Captain America were my four movies that year.In 2012 my two movies will be Avengers Assemble and Amazing Spider-Man.I'm glad to see 2014 is shaping up nicely for me.Movies should always be Apes or Marvel or, preferably, both.That should be the law.John, Scrolls.

In the Wilson 1967 script, p 80, the debate between Zaius and Taylor in Zaius' office has an exchange where Taylor explains he's from a different planet in a different solar system.Zaius asks how is it then they speak the same language.Do we think this was taken out to avoid spoiling the Liberty reveal?

Other then sending it into an expensive transfer facility there are a couple of ways. I never tried it, but one's called an Ambico Video Transfer Box. It's basically a scaled down version with a mirror and screen. You shine the projector on a screen on the box and point your camcorder in the hole and make a transfer that way.  You can find them on ebay. But if you want here's an alternative method I found online...

 

Project onto a plain piece of white paper about 11 x 17 with the video camera next to the projector. You can control contrast by letting a little diffused/bounced light from a 150 W household tungsten lamp fall on the 'screen'. Do a custom white balance on the 'screen' with the projector running without film, or just set the camera to the tungsten pre-set.

Adjust the projector speed to give minimum flicker. Are you shooting PAL or NTSC video? 8 mm film can be transferred at 16.67 fps (=50/3)or 25 fps (=50/2) to PAL and 20 fps to NTSC. Most Standard/Regular/Double 8 mm film was shot at 16 fps or thereabouts and Super 8 was either 18 or 24 fps - but these aren't hard-and-fast rules.

If you are dedicating a projector to video transfer there are a couple of mods that will help: filing out the film gate to show the whole film frame and a little beyond; and removing all the shutter blades except the blade(s) that interrupts the light during pull-down

There were three versions of these Super 8 mini movies, Black & White, Color, and Color with sound.  I never had a projector that had sound, so I never got the sound versions, just the color ones, which I eventually all put on one big reel.

Ricardo Montalban did a fantastic job in POTA, Star Trek and Fantasy Island productions.

It was particularly neat driving through New Mexico for the first time (in 1992) and hearing a radio broadcast of his voice greeting newcomers. I think traffic signs directed us to listen to that station. The place looked like the Forbidden Zone. Good time :-)

I didn't see him in Spy Kids as I seldom go to the silver screen lately (since litigation's sufficiently exciting for me while movie ticket prices increasingly exceed used Blu Ray ones). And I haven't had (or particularly wanted) a television in years. But just this week I purchased the POTA series on Blu-Ray (thanks to the announcement of one of our participants), so I look forward to seeing Armando in action again.

Greetings from Houston :-)

But I also knew that Ricardo's iconic role as Khan in "Star Trek 2: the Wrath of Khan" came out 30 years ago this summer. Were their anniversaries the same day? Naw, but it was the same month. "Star Trek 2" came out June 4rth, 1982.
> Is "Star Trek 2" the best "Star Trek" movie? I think so. Is Khan Montalban's most iconic role? I think so. But it's interesting about his two classic sci-fi roles. In both cases he had two performances (Armando in "Escape" and "Conquest", Khan in the "Space Seed" ep of "Star Trek" and "Star Trek 2"). In both cases I think he gave the better performance in the latter ones (but wow, were all performances terrific). In the case of POTA, he played a man of peace in a series that was about war (more or less). For "Star Trek", where humanity had found a way to live peacefully, he was the face of war.
> I would say Khan in "Star Trek 2" is his most iconic role, followed by... I dunno. He rocked in his two POTA movies but there's also Mr. Rourke of "Fantasy Island" and the grandpa in the "Spy Kids" movies (which introduced him to a new generation). So where does Armando fit in an incredible career?

Thank you for passing on the information. Hope the site
comes back soon....Will be patient till then^_^

You probably didn't wait 2 weeks to see "Conquest", did you? That would've been 2 weeks if it came out June 14. Maybe you saw a preview?

Dear Heavenly Father,
Please bring your faithful servant Joe Russo here to us so that he may explain where he got June 14. Thank you.

I have an manilla envelope with a Conquest postage stamp(Fox promo stamp) that some glossys were sent in. Im pretty sure on the envelope it has a blurb about its opening in NYC. Ill try to get this stuff but its hard because its all in a closet behind my stereo/theater and its a pain in the neck. I have back problems. Also I have a review that strangly has it rated GP instead of PG since that rating and the M rating were recently stopped by the Hollywood ratings board. The novelization book has it rated GP though.

Usually a day or two before a movie opens there is a press screening for critics and others in the media. Is it possible that you went to a press screening on the 28th?

That's not Bill and Paula, that's Roddy and Kim.
THIS is a knife!
I mean, this is Bill and Paula:

I heard about Rodney King's passing.  I'm saddened about it.    "Can't we all just get along" is very fitting for the APES saga, too.   Zach            -------Original Message-------   From: Jeff K.
