Somebody named "goathunter" (wonder who?) posted this on Blu-ray.com:
"I had pre-ordered the Dawn Blu-ray from Target back in September to get the "Target Exclusive Gorilla Soldier Action Figure." My order arrived today---but without the action figure. It's just the Blu-ray. The shipping email they sent me pictures the BD with the figure, but the description no longer mentions it, and an unexplained "other discounts" of $4.00 was applied to my order. I sent them a message, but I think it's pretty clear that, for whatever reason, they're not sending the figures out. The product page on their site no longer shows the figure or mentions it.
I sent a complaint-mail to them, but I don't expect to get a reply. One of my FB friends said he called them about it, but the two people he talked to had no idea what he was talking about."
I, too, pre-ordered DAWN from Target to get the NECA gorilla soldier. I haven't recieved mine yet but I did get a shipping order that made no mention of the NECA toy included and I was immediately suspicious, and my suspicions are confirmed by Hunter's comment. It pisses me off, but I'm not going to let it get to me as I already have the NECA figures. It would have been nice to get a second gorilla figure, but unfortunately, Target is run by lousy human bastards. (By the way, the second wave of figures mailed out last week from Entertainment Earth and I'm looking forward to that in the mail this week.)
As for DAWN on BD... I went out late Tuesday night to a Wal-mart to get the DAWN Blu-ray and was surprised to find them sold-out! I live in a very small North Carolina town -- and every Blu-ray of DAWN was sold-out in one day?!!!! AMAZING!!!!! The new APES franchise must be more popular than I thought. Anyway, they had two copies left of the DAWN 3D Blu-ray, which includes the 2D BD, so I was able to get that, and I prefer its cover anyway. I don't own a 3D Blu-ray player or TV, but I at least have the 3D disc if my situation ever changes.

.htmlPeople on Facebook are reporting that Target is just shipping the BR and figure from different places. Reports are that some people are even getting the action figure before the BR. And the refund is supposedly only because they lowered the price. Can't confirm any of this but it may be good news after all. Dario

As for DAWN on BD... I went out late Tuesday night to a Wal-mart to get the DAWN Blu-ray and was surprised to find them sold-out! I live in a very small North Carolina town -- and every Blu-ray of DAWN was sold-out in one day?!!!! AMAZING!!!!! The new APES franchise must be more popular than I thought. Anyway, they had two copies left of the DAWN 3D Blu-ray, which includes the 2D BD, so I was able to get that, and I prefer its cover anyway. I don't own a 3D Blu-ray player or TV, but I at least have the 3D disc if my situation ever changes.

People on Facebook are reporting that Target is just shipping the BR and figure from different places. Reports are that some people are even getting the action figure before the BR. And the refund is supposedly only because they lowered the price.
Can't confirm any of this but it may be good news after all.

| Subject: thoughts on the "Dawn" blu-ray |
.html
.html
It's been a week since the "Dawn" blu-ray came
out so I guess it's time to take a look under the hood. I'll just say I love
extras on DVD/blu-ray. A decade ago when DVD was hot they were all the rage. But
ultimately it became the same old thing: people in front of green screens/ads
for the movies. So people lost interest (those that had it) and since these
things cost money, extras have been weeded out lately. "Dawn" has about 2 hours
of extras, counting the trailers, which is a rarity these days. So I think it's
worth the dough just for that. So let's see what we get.
Matt Reeves commentary: I love commentaries if
the person doing it is good. We get a stream of consciousness that includes
stuff you won't get in the usual press. Reeves knows what a movie commentary
should be: watch the movie and comment on what it took to make that scene. It's
not, "Oh, there's so and so. She was nice". Or reiterate what we're watching on
screen: "He's lifting that because otherwise the enemy would see him". Reeves
gives good commentary.
Among the stuff I found interesting (as someone
who followed the promo interviews and stuff):
Reeves did conceive the opening hunt as a play on
"2001: A Space Odyssey". I remember when "Dawn of the POTA" was announced as the
title, back before Reeves was even a glimmer in POTA's eyes that it reminded me
of the "Dawn of Man" sequence in "2001" (considering "Rise" director Rupert
Wyatt was a Kubrick fan who compared "Rise" to "Sparticus"). It's just fun to
see Reeves take that full force, including 2001ish music in that scene. The hunt
scene also reminds me (though no has mentioned this) of the hunt in the original
POTA. One could imagine at the start of the scene that they are going to hunt
humans (but they are hunting antelope). Nice foreshadowing (as it was when
Caesar "hunted" the neighbor in "Rise"). Reeves also notes that chimps hunt in
packs, which wuz an inspiration for this scene.
Reeves gives a shout out to "Project Nim" as an
inspiration for the sign language in the film.
Reeves compares the ape society to "The
Godfather".
He sees the ape society as reminding of those in
director Akira Kurosawa's films.
First shot of Gary Oldman a direct lift from the
first shot in "The Searchers". Sees the story as a Western.
All these classic references were a way to ground
the dazzling new FX.
The bulk of the ape shots came in the last 6
weeks before premiere, so in a way Reeves was enjoying the movie anew like we
were.
The scene where Malcolm is brought before Caesar
wuz meant to evoke "Apocalypse Now" and "Aguirre, the Wrath of
God".
WETA rebuilt the apes from scratch and assure
Reeves that "Apes 3" will be even better. The scene where Caesar watches himself
and Will from "Rise" on the camcorder? They actually redid Caesar in that clip
so he would match the better apes in "Dawn".
People assume (like I did) that they superimpose
apes over the actors but they actually create a new scene (that's why they have
to film the scenes over without the ape performers). But there were certain
scenes Reeves "marked" that he wanted to keep the whole scene between humans and
apes, so they literally did put the ape over the actor. He mentions the scene
where Koba interacts with the two armory guys ("You want a drink?"); the scene
where they put the injured Caesar in the back of the truck.
Reeves also talks through his work with WETA. Sez
he spent 6 hours a day on SKYPE with them, mostly trying to get as much of the
actor's performance into the ape as possible ("You got his anger but can you
also get his sadness?").
Reeves notes when things got tough they always
had "Rise" to look back on as proof it could work out; but "Rise" had nothing to
compare it to.
The emotion of a scene wuz Job #1; everything
else came after.
Reeves believes eventually motion capture will be
able to directly apply the actor's performance to the role without all the
technical steps they do today. It will free up actors to play roles they may not
have the "body type" for.
The difference between this and "Rise" is they
never used "key frame animation" to create the apes; everything was based on an
actor or stuntman to give it reality.
Besides shooting a scene sans the apes (like a
human doing the scenes pretending to act with an ape) they also shot "clean
plates", which is nothing but the background. So if Caesar and Koba are
fighting, the actors have pads, etc. and they can take those out using the clean
plate.
Reeves sees the 76 gas station as an homage to
growing up in California.
Motion capture can only capture about 8 - 15
performances at a time (15 is pushing it).
When Dreyfus looks at the pics of his family it's
actually Gary Oldman's family; it wuz Gary's idea to help him in the
scene.
Reeves sees Koba as a nod to Kurosawa's "Ran",
"burning down the castle". He's primal rage/revenge.
The scene of Koba attacking the humans reminded
me of "Saving Pvt. Ryan" and Reeves acknowledges that's what he wuz going
for.
Reeves considers the Koba attack the genie out of
the bottle and the relationship between apes and humans will never be the same
(humans can't forgive the attack). I thought it wuz interesting that at the end
Caesar couldn't make the leap Malcolm did. Malcolm risked his own person to try
to talk to the apes but Caesar gives up right away ("they will never forgive").
The biggest challenge wuz the Koba tank POV
shot (1,030 versions by WETA). They had a team of animators that only worked on
that shot for nine months. It wuz one of the last shots finished and they opened
champagne to celebrate.
It's a sad thing but the look of the film wuz
helped greatly in New Orleans by Katrina.
The "Rise" house in New Orleans matched the floor
plan for the one used in Vancouver for "Rise".
The scene where Malcolm runs through the hallways
(where he sees Caesar's son) wuz the only Steadicam shot (and it wuz a bitch
because 3D cameras are heavy).
Reeves wanted Caesar to have a flaw in his
thinking, a blind spot (apes are better than humans morally) which is played
out.
One of the early shots where they knew WETA had
improved their game is the close-up of Maurice the orangutan in the
cage.
One of the advantages of motion capture is
refining scenes up to the last minute.
Fox wuz very supportive with what they wanted to
do because they loved the story.
Last minute ending change: was to end with the
apes watching the ships come in signaling war but the "friends and family"
screenings showed that it was too much too soon (as well as boxing them in for
the sequel). Reeves directed Andy over SKYPE greeting his fellow apes as a
quieter and more reflective ending.
"Dawn" ends with Caesar as a killer and that will
haunt "Apes 3" as Caesar becomes a seminal figure that leads to the POTA we
know.
Then there's the extras, which with the trailers
total about 2 hours (very rare these days):
"Journey to Dawn (9 minutes): Nice remembrance of
the success of "Rise" and their thoughts of moving the story forward. Reeves
talks about his POTA love and it's nice to see Rick Jaffa and Amanda Silver, the
writers who have moved on but made these new movies possible.
"Andy Serkis" (9 minutes): the required
look at the Master of Motion Capture and his approach to the process and this
story. Also on the DVD.
"Humans and Apes" (18 minutes): My favorite
part of the behind the scenes is seeing the ape actors perform and there's
plenty of that as we look at the cast and Reeves as an "actor's
director".
"The World of Dawn" (15 minutes): the look
of the film; shooting on location (85% of the shoot); the costumes (function not
fashion); doing the tank shot.
"The Ape Community" (10 minutes): creating
the ape world and where they are 10 years after "Rise" (sign language,
etc.).
"Move Like an Ape" (15 minutes): a tribute
to ape movement expert Terry Notary (who also got an extra on the POTA2001 DVD
13 years ago); he picked 5 people out of 150 to be ape extras (over and over
again). Notary: "It's performance capture. You see the actor and you see the
soul of the actor in the performance". Also touches on Karin Konoval and her
research to play Maurice the orangutan.
"WETA and Dawn" (20 minutes): This is
about the possibility of apes actually taking over the world. No it's not! We
know what it's about, the folks who make our apes. It's nice that it touches on
how much the original POTA inspires them. Actually Peter Jackson, the co-founder
of WETA, tried to make a POTA movie with Roddy McDowall in his corner but
eventually "Lord of the Rings" became WETA's proving ground. If you want to know
how they create the apes, this is the one for you, the longest extra. It's not
just "pushing a button".
"Fight For a New Dawn" (16 minutes):
sounds like it's about the stunts (covered in "Move Like An Ape") but it's
actually about THE fight, the final battle between Caesar and Koba. It's
actually the only scene that's 100% created in the computer, dubbed Koba's
Tower (as a rule, CG is expensive so you want to use real stuff as much as
possible). Also the challenges of figuring out a scene that just doesn't exist
in reality. Also tacked on is a look at the music composer, Michael Giacchino,
who deserved his own extra. He talks about how much he and Reeves are lifelong
fans of POTA (Reeves presents him with Caesar's spear, just a cool moment
between two fans). Basically this extra is the wrap up (the tower being the
finale, the music being the last element and then some final
words).
Also included is 3 trailers, 4 minutes of deleted
scenes (seems like something's missing) and a preview of Fox's Moses movie
"Exodus: Gods and Kings" (kind of appropriate since it's produced by Apes'
Chernin Entertainment and Caesar has been made out to be the "ape
Moses".
What else can I say? It's a fantastic movie and a
fantastic blu-ray. Ape fans have been waiting a long time for this moment where
Hollywood has caught up to our ambitions and here we are.

Not necessarily. Serkis is probably the most
called for Oscar. It sez "in all categories". But some ads highlight different
things and that one is touting the writing and directing.
But it's probably a lost cause. "Rise" wuz seen
as an original but this is a sequel and those rarely get nominated for the big
boys. It will probably win FX this time but no one's even talking "Dawn" this
year like they did for "Rise".

It's too soon to even talk about it. By the time
they get that far in the future it'll be a different writer and director who we
don't even know yet. And if they have a compelling idea of how to connect it to
the '68 movie it might happen. Then we'll be saying, "By cracky, those young

.htmlThe script for ESCAPE FROM THE PLANET OF THE APES called for Walter Cronkite in the scene in which Hasslein tries to explain "infinite regress" to a news anchor, but they couldn't get him -- so they got Bill Bonds, another real-life anchor, instead; Bonds passed away today. Bill Bonds, iconic former Channel 7 Action News anchorman, has died

Might this become the first Apes movie to break the billion dollar mark?
It helps that there's so much inflation:

Was it really 40 years ago this month that I got some POTA toys? I think that's when Mego advertised 'em on television, right?

I was sad to hear about my friend Booth Colman.
But it's hard to mourn someone who lived 91 years and spent most of that time
doing what he loved. We should all be so lucky.
I met Booth in 1996 when he agreed to make an
appearance for Eric Greene's book "POTA as American Myth". He did it just for
the hell of it but he enjoyed meeting the fans. So that started a side job of
doing conventions. Booth got to do some traveling and make some fans happy. Some
of you might have enjoyed his ape revelation.
I can't say we were fishing buddies (I
don't even know if he liked to fish) but we hung out whenever we were at
conventions together. And we talked on the phone from time to time. He liked my
"Veetus" cartoons and that meant a lot. When I think of Booth I think of his
sense of humor so we got along great. Booth meant a lot to me over the years.
The last time I saw him was in 2013. He
didn't think much of Burton's "Apes" but I asked him about "Rise" and he liked
it, saying it had a "good script". I don't know if he saw "Dawn" but I assume so
considering he was a member of the Motion Picture Academy (the Oscar folks) and
was privy to a lot of free movies. The last conversation we had he invited me to
an Academy showing, but sadly it didn't happen.
In short, did Booth know his portrayal of Zaius
was loved? You betcha! Of course I always wince when he's called "Dr.
Zaius" because he's never called that in the TV show. It was just Zaius and
definitely a different character.
Here's my interview with him:
And here's Booth's credits. He may have been
in more than you assumed:
R. I. P. my friend. You will live on in your
work.

kind of alternate reality where all the Ape stuff we've always wanted is

This is basically an interview about "Rise"
director Rupert Wyatt's new movie "The Gambler" (which hits today, his first
movie since "Rise"). But he talks about the low expectations for "Rise" (thanx
to a movie starring his current star Mark Wahlberg). This is an aspect I haven't
heard talked about re: "Rise". They asked a lot of people to direct it
(including Oliver Stone, who was a would be "Apes" producer in 1993) but
were turned down. Wyatt sez that's why he got the "opportunity" and certainly he
made the most of it.
Wyatt reportedly returns to sci-fi with a
10-part miniseries "The Echo Chamber" (originally an I.R.A. story but they felt
they could do more with it as sci-fi). I liked "The Escapist" and "Rise" so I'm
always interested in what he's got going on.

.html.html
Members, I've never said it before, and I know that a lot of you won't agree with me...but I've had mixed feelings about the "crossover" of Apes with Star Trek. Please don't get me wrong, the latter series was a great one, they really had some fantastic sequels and the original TV show of the Sixties was nice...but having the two "crossing over"...I just don't think that's a very good combination.
The two series were in different universes, different centuries and, of course, had different characters...I suppose if Taylor and his crew had a ship like the Enterprise they would've completed their original mission of reaching that distant star mentioned in the first Apes......if they had intended on visiting an alien planet, and it turned out to be another version of a future Earth, ravaged by a nuclear war and populated of apes and mute humans, it would've been totally different, the force-fields and everything would've defeated any army of gorillas...in essence, things would've turned out much different than it did. The Ape society would've considered them "super-humans"...I wondered what Dr. Zaius would've thought of Dr. Spock?
What are you own thought of this?

.html
A few months ago, the original PLANET OF THE APES premiered on Turner Classic Movies. It was an old letterboxed transfer that was not in HD. Last Tuesday (Dec. 30) TCM showed KING KONG in the afternoon followed by PLANET and BENEATH. Now TCM is showing true HD transfers of some films and this time they showed PLANET in HD. I was lucky enough to DVR it and just watched it this morning. Folks, it was the best transfer of PLANET I've ever seen, better that the one on Blu-ray!!!
It has to be the result of that restoration that was done in 2010. So, now I know: Fox has an HD transfer of PLANET superior to the 2008 Blu-ray. When will it get a release on Blu-ray? I suspect it won't be until the 2018 50th Anniversary (just four years away), and by that time the industry may be into 4K Blu-ray discs. Who knows what's going to happen?
By the way, BENEATH was also shown in HD on TCM and it too looked superior to the Blu-ray. So, Fox really needs to remaster all the films.

We're all getting old, but you really need to bone up on your ape knowledge.
Anyway, I've read that this release represents all that they've been able to find of the TV series music cues, and that they haven't been able to find any recordings of the music from the cartoon series, so don't get your hopes up there.

It's been years since I looked for a soundtrack CD in a store, probably more than a decade. What I'm interested in is pretty obscure, like a Planet of the Apes TV series soundtrack. But if you want to wait and see if it appears in any of those places, good luck to you. I'll be ordering it online so as to get it as soon as possible. I suggest you do the same. Just sayin'.

It's been almost a year since Fox announced that
"Apes 3" would be released in July 2016 but scratch that. Now it's 7/14/17. That
means no 50th anniversary "Apes" movie in 2018. That means no "Apes" movie in
the Year of the Monkey (2016). : (
The director has said it's going to be a
very ambitious movie, but no reason has been given for the move. Fox's comic
book movies "X-Men" and "Fantastic 4" still seem on track for sequels 2 years
after their last ones but "Apes" is being given more time. Could it be script
probs? Dunno.
Where does that leave "Apes" competish-wise? So
far it looks sandwiched between the next "Pirates of the Caribbean" (July 7) and
the next "Thor" (July 28).

"Apes 3" director Matt Reeves chatted on twitter
about the move to 2017, saying they're doing it "to make sure we get it right".
At this point he sez they will "probably" shoot at the end of the year. So what
are we supposed to do for the Year of the Monkey and the 50th anniversary?

Not surprised by this news at all. I hope it means a better screenplay will result, so I expect the addition of another writer, and there's always the possibility that creative differences will arise and even Matt Reeves could drop out. More time just means more possibilities for more things to happen. We'll see. I hate to have to wait longer, but then all good things come to those that wait, don't they?

50th Anniversary? I'd be happy just getting a 4K Blu-ray of PLANET.

Later we'll release "Apes 3". Later we'll do a
second trilogy set 200 years hence. Later we'll do a trilogy that gets us to
POTA68. We think we've got all the time in the world. How much time has the
world got before we're all in old age homes?! Somebody has to begin to
care!

And here it is, at least the announcement of it.
Yes, I can see it now, the 50th Anniversary "Ultra HD Blu-ray" of the original PLANET OF THE APES in late 2017 or early 2018.

Depends. Yes, Veetus, that's what you'll be wearing, Depends, when Fox announces the 25th APES movie set for the 70th Anniversary of PLANET in 2038.
