I don't think Rocket is 'tamed', he's just been cowed. (Rocket's more scared of Buck than he is Caesar) In the compound it's easier for Caesar to keep a watchful eye on Rocket and keep him in line. Rocket's something of a wild card and what with all the other apes having previously been subversive to him perhaps having him as Caesar's 'lieutenant' helps make the transition of leadership (from Rocket to Caesar) easier to accept.

Once free Caesar (and Buck) won't have the opportunity to keep any wild cards in line. He hesitates because he's still naively hoping for a bloodless revolution with zero casualties and he's weighing up the odds of Rocket doing more harm than good.

Maybe Caesar's not totally sure of his ape.In Conquest, Caesar has the chance to test his influence by remote control, getting his minions to carry out tasks out of his direct control.Up to this point in RISE, Caesar has always had Rocket well within view--maybe he's worried that Rocket is playing a double game and may revert to type outside? Maybe Rocket still will....John, Scrolls.

Dave, spot on.Can I also muse that this is exactly the sort of thing a novelisation could fill in, giving us the inner thoughts of what is, substantially, a mute cast.I still hope for a novelisation of RISE--it's a glaring gap in Apedom and RISE is the ONLY Apes movie without a novel--even the animated series was novelised!!

Burton was also in Escape as an Army General and in the TV series as Galen's father.

He wasn't the only actor in Diamonds are Forever with a Ape film connection, Bruce Cabot starred in the original King Kong.

I agree with you on this, Rory. Any movie made in the last five years that I enjoyed seems to be rated too low by him in my opinion. Maybe he's seen too many movies over the years and has become jaded, or maybe I haven't seen enough, but I definitely don't agree with most of his recent reviews like I used to years ago, and I've been buying his book since 1974!

Yeah, that's right, only two and a half stars, and say that it "starts out so well that it seems a shame it winds up like a cheesy monster movie from the 1950s." What planet are they living on?!!! And to make things worse, remember SUPER 8? I've already nearly forgotten it. Maltin gives that one three and a half stars!!!! This guy has lost it.

I could go for a Banana Slusho---or should that be an Oper Slusho.... if I knew what a Slusho IS! Sounds like a colonic irrigation? John, Scrolls.

So will Slusho! find it's way into some abandoned human iconography in POTA? Maybe Rocket will find an empty Slusho! cup and his first words will be, "Where get me a Slusho?". I was an "Alias" fan so I'd enjoy a subtle reference that would go over most people's heads. No harm done?

One thing that used to exercise my little mind with Apes was the question of the language they spoke---not that it is English, but that it's RECOGNISABLE English. 2000 years is a long time in the evolution of language and a modern Englishman would not be easily able to converse with a Dark Age Angle or Saxon.But, listening to the audio Boulle, the answer is there! The Orangs, conservative and repressive, stifled all new thought and initiative, teaching exactly the same stuff to young Apes in school, thereby keeping ideas---and the language--frozen.It's a bit like Latin--because it was the language of a monolithic, repressive Church and State, it stayed frozen--a Medieval monk could have had a conversation with Nero.
So, panic over.Apes does make sense after all! John, Scrolls.

Here's a featurette about the movie "Argo" (hitting Friday), including John Goodman talking about the man he plays.

Good point John! Remember Cornelius said he spoke the language taught to him by his father who was taught it by his father.

I think the Apes conservatism would account for their lack of technology too---the repressive regimes of the Middle Ages in Europe held mankind back for centuries---just look at the advances of the Industrial Revolution when the shackles of religious correctness were thrown off.So, maybe, in AD 4500 or so, Apedom will be embracing technology and shooting for the Moon.
Which won't be there.John, Scrolls.

Just got issue #2 of Cataclysm and it looks fantastic--the cover is already one of my fave Apes covers.This is our ongoing series, our only current bit of new Apes, so as many of who can buy it, the better, to keep the Ape flame burning bright.Have a look at the covers on BOOM!'s site--they're gorgeous!!John, Scrolls.

It's when a cold beer just won't do and you put one in the freezer, but

then you forget about it, and it ends up in there for more than half an hour

and gets below 22 degrees. Then you open it, and take a drink. You take a

couple of glugs. But you stop, and the sudden release of CO2 make it freeze.

But wouldn't is actually be cheaper to do some of it 'in camera' with prosthetics? I know that Captain America's Red Skull was a blend of CGI and make-up and it looked awesome.I just pine a bit for the traditional pre-publicity stuff of actors bleary-eyed in chairs, or driving cars in full ape make-up.Andy in a romper suit just aint the same, somehow.John, Scrolls.

Just received my Caesar action figure.Like me, he comes with two faces, cute and angry, and like Ballard he comes with two sets of hairy feet and hands.He (Caesar, not Ballard) also has a spear (from the zoo cage) and a cannister of smart gas (which Ballard could probably actually use).Anyway,unlike Ballard, Caesar is bloody gorgeous and is my new best friend--he's got a date with my Mego Zira later, the horny little primate.John, Scrolls.

I recall some Actors feeling that Ape Prosthetics were not really legitimate acting, The Passage of Time says differently though, how it will fare with CG, I don't know.

I feel like a bit of a Hypocrite, mainly because Destiny of the Planet of the Apes is being done with CG Characters.

I've never been a Fan of CGI, the over the top use of it anyway, and I'm still not, but over the past few years I've learned a lot more about it and have a greater appreciation of the work that goes into it.

I must admit, I wasn't really blown away by RISE, I read a draft of the script and thought it was great, the Movie is a different story, aside from feeling like a gutted movie, it just doesn't have anything that I personally find memorable, at least where the Humans are concerned.

The Apes are obviously the real Stars, and I was mostly impressed with how well they came off, despite the fact that I wasn't enthusiastic about them being CG, after reading a draft of the script I understood the logic behind it, Suits and Animatronics could be used, but the proportions are still not 100% accurate, and they were going for totally realistic.

There are Shots in RISE, where the Apes look absolutely real(especially the hands) then there are shots where they look a bit off, and then there are shots where they look Like Cartoony CGI with really great textures.

I think there would be fewer flaws in the CG if more time had been given to do it, I recall that at one point it was scheduled for release in November of 2011, then got pushed up to August, I feel that the CG would have benefited from a few extra months, unfortunately a movies don't always get an appropriate amount of post Production time, and are rushed into the theater, and cut down to squeeze more showings into 1 day.

As for DAWN, well I'm not holding my breath hoping that it will tie directly into the originals, and that's fine because I never expected that.

using prosthetics and CG in the film would be neat, I would love to see that, but I don't expect it, no matter how much I as a Fan want to see that, it's not about what I want.

I don't really keep up with much of the News on DAWN, I liked RISE, I was glad it did well, but I personally just didn't feel very compelled by it.

They do indeed make Ballard dolls over here, but there's a long waiting list as the amount of material needed for life-size presents problems of logistics.Mine is damaged--having taken three hours to inflate,I gave it one small love biet and it farted and shot out of the bedroom window.John, Scrolls.

The CGI in RISE was an eye opener for me.I ranted against CGI when it was announced, but, when I saw that trailer, I just melted.That said, I'd LOVE to see some make-up an a future film, because, somehow, that's a part of Apes I don't want to forget and I still wonder what Andy Serkis would do with it.John, Scrolls.

Is Chief Burrus in CATACLYSM#2 the fattest Ape in Apedom.Magauanus in Marvel's Terror had his love handles, and Apemania's Ursus could be argued to be on the Forbidden Zone side of cuddly.My own turn as Berass, the gorilla with the dropping pants back in 2007 adds much weight to the argument also.But Chief Burrus---he's the Ape equivalent of Elvis on the toilet.John, Scrolls.

This will have been mentioned somewhere before, I'm sure, but, towards the end of John Wyndham's Day of the Triffids,published in 1951, the hero, Bill, arrives at a farm where the occupants are Dennis and Mary BRENT and Joyce TAYLOR.Do we know how soon the name of Brent arrived---was it pre or post Dehn? Maybe this was a small tribute from one Brit to another? And, to cap it, the hero,Bill, has the name of our commanding astronaut in RETURN!!!Spooky or what? John, Scrolls.

Thanks not only pre Dehn, that's pre Boulle! PotA itself was only published in 1963.

Loved reading Triffids when I was a teen and many other John Wyndham novels (especially "The Midwich Cuckoos" which has been filmed as "Village of the Dammed").

This will have been mentioned somewhere before, I'm sure, but, towards the end of John Wyndham's Day of the Triffids,published in 1951, the hero, Bill, arrives at a farm where the occupants are Dennis and Mary BRENT and Joyce TAYLOR.Do we know how soon the name of Brent arrived---was it pre or post Dehn? Maybe this was a small tribute from one Brit to another? And, to cap it, the hero,Bill, has the name of our commanding astronaut in RETURN!!!Spooky or what? John, Scrolls.

I realized that I was mistaken and there are two who appeared in both a POTA and James Bond movie. Norman Burton is the first but, as Yoda would say, there is another. And the actor who played James Bond in which this Oscar winner appeared has a connection to someone who was in Planet.

I finally stumped Rory!

The answer is John Huston who was the Lawgiver in Battle and played M in the 1967 version of Casino Royale. David Niven played James Bond in that film and he starred in the movie Stairway to Heaven with Kim Hunter.

Seems like a lot of Matt's working on Dawn. If they bring in Matt LeBlanc to star, I'm outta here;-)

Is one of the scarecrows on the cover of THE APE Mark Wahlberg in full, emotive acting mode? It looks like him.Actually, one of his better performances......John, Scrolls.

On the screenrant.com site, the feature on Bomback's appointment mentions he actually did uncredited work on RISE.Apart from anything else, 'Bomback' sounds like a suicide gorilla with a grudge, so it should be action-filled.Is Bomback's involvement a signal for action and explosions? John, Scrolls.
