Jeff, I think it is imperative that they re-do the story entirely but capture the spirit of POTA.

 

I am having trouble defining the spirit of POTA, but it is certainly more about themes and irony that it is or ever was about the script – would you agree?

   I have nothing against Harrison Ford and even now he wants to do another Indiana Jones, so he can still do the action. But there's certain age requirements for astronauts and that might have been a credibility problem for the story. Unless they did a totally different story without astronauts. Or have astronauts landing but the astronaut isn't the star. That might have been more interesting instead of doing the same old story like they did. - - - Jeff

I don't think the other actors got paid all that much. I remember when
POTA2001 came out Helena B. Carter said she'd only do a sequel if she got a
raise. And I think she gave the best performance. Of all the actors I think
Paul Giamatti is having the best career. He's become an unlikely movie star
with "American Splendor" and "Sideways" (people thought he should've got
Oscar nominations for both). He's featured in the new Russell Crowe boxing
movie ("Cinderella Man"?) and just got cast in M. Night Shamalain's new
movie (a kind of spooky "Splash" with Giamatti in the Tom Hanks role).
Wahlberg had a hit with "The Italian Job" but most of his movies have
flopped. Those huge movie star salaries not only hurt the others in a cast,
they hurt the ordinary hard working peons behind-the- scenes, and make
movies more costly and more of a risk, so they play it safe. - - - Jeff

I agree that HBC gave the best performance, I remember coming away
from the movie thinking that she had carried it and was one of the few
things I liked about it. I would have thought she would have been at
least on equal pay having had a better track record in films up to
then.

I wonder how much Heston got for embarrassing himself?

Neil

They already tried the "lets change the story completely and try and
keep the feel of POTA" and with a director I thought would have been a
perfect choice... and it was a disaster. I think the radical change in
the human characters (a woman or black male) could be a great avenue
to explore but the basic story needs to stay. Having the current man
be more animal and not speaking for one. The hunt in the Burton film
is nowhere near as dramatic or disturbing as the hunt filmed over 30
years earlier. The image of the piles of bodies or humans on poles
scarred me for life (in a good way). I also think Zira looks better
than Ari did. The other make-ups did look good but not enough to carry
the whole picture. The characters in the original series where all
terrific and you cared about them. I think Thade was the only
character in the new film that was in any way truly interesting. I
think Terry Gilliam is just bizzare and talented enough to pull off a
radical change in the series but keep it a story and character driven
film. I also think keeping the main character as someone who is dark
and disillusioned with the entire human race is a quality that
shouldn't be changed... but then again what do I know.... I'm just a
fan.

Maybe some military experiment where super warriors have been

released only in times of war and something goes wrong and they stay
asleep way too long before being reactivated by an unwitting ape in
the future... then let the carnage begin ;-)

If you've ever seen Norm, he looks like a Gorilla.

In fact, there was a time, before I knew better

when I thought he was Julius.  I'm sure one of

the reasons he was cast in Monkey's Uncle

is his Apish looks.  And I saw him on a

Master's Hot Rod build on Jessie James

Monster Garage.  He can still chop with the

best.  But he chopped his leg, and finished

the build on crutches.  He's a funny guy too,

His nickname is Norm "Woo Woo" Grabowski.

But it wasn't his comedy or his football player

physique that got him his break in show biz.

He built the hot rod Kookie drove in 77 Sunset Strip!

His custom cars are prized among collectors.

__________________________________

Tim Burton is a good director for certain things. As a "tribute"
director. "Edward Scissorhands" was a tribute to Frankenstein. "Ed Wood" was
a tribute to love of film. "Big Fish" did show promise as a storyteller in
his own right, though. But POTA needs a storyteller. Burton loves the Hammer
horror movies but when he did "Sleepy Hollow", it wasn't scary. It just
presented the basic elements of those movies and gave them a 'quirky' spin.
And of course his patented visuals. There's too much baggage that comes with
a Burton film.
I've seen Terry Gilliam's new movie "The Brothers Grimm" and it's an
expensive mess. It was supposed to come out last year but it's being
retooled. Hopefully they'll save it or he'll need a sign that says, "Will
direct for food". Again, Gilliam is good for things but I don't see him as
POTA's savior. It needs the new James Cameron or Sam Raimi, some one not so
"quirky". - - - Jeff

Seriously though, do you have any idea if these are all the rare shots
he got or are there (hopefully) many more that he will be using for
future card sets?

How about a chimp astronaut who communicates with sign language?

I could be wrong, but I think Andrew Martin, Isaac Asimov's Bicentennial Man, was created on April 3, 2005.  (I'm not sure the original "Positronic Man" was created that day, but I'm quite sure Robin Williams's character was.)

 

So, happy day of birth, Andrew.  Welcome to the world.

.html.html Today, April 3rd, but way back in 1968, POTA opened wide to neighborhood theatres in the NYC area -- and probably a lot of other places!  I first saw the movie on April 7th, which was a Sunday way back then.

She killed Hector, a chimp.  Strangled him with her bare hands.  Tough bitch that Nova!

No, Hector (?) was a chimp, not a monkey...
