Well I got the talking view master viewer and listeed
finally to POTA! It's basically a high pitched
narrator very excitedly telling us what's going
on...no dialogue or anyone trying to impersonate the
actors...very similar to the style of the Power
records!
Interesting side note...the woman who sold it to me
had some troubles getting it to me so as a bonus she
sent me three talking reels from......Land of the
Lost....starring....Ron Harper.....how strange is
that...she said she didn't even think about that...!

Because writers (artist) are individuals, they, like their style, get names
in variety of ways and through influences. Frank Baum got the word "Oz" of
his filing cabinet; whereas my writer friend, Mary, picks and researches her
character's names from a handful of name books in her library. As a budding
childern's author, I usually end up inventing my characters' names either by
accident or by playing with sounds. Both of these applied when I created the
name K'Clea from Cleo.. One day I mistyped changing the "o" to an "a"
spelling "Clea" instead of "Cleo". I thought Clea was great name. But it
didn't seem complete - having a click or sound the name seemed to require.
So I added "K" to "Clea" making it "K'Clea" (kay-kleeya).

Perhaps Boulle knew a Zira, a girl friend or female relation. (Back in his
day, maybe Zira, due to the Exodus, was a common name in France, like Wendy
was common due to release of Peter Pan) Yet again, as stated, he could have
read it somewhere, like off his ciggs or even a box of cereal. The answer
might lie within his other works where the names of his other characters
could hold a pattern common to POTA his characters. Whatever the answer may
be, I'm sure that he has taken it to his grave.

Tzero,

Didn't see this before I entered my input. Nevertheless, ditto.

PS. I named my Dell Zira. Does this mean she will be tease mercilessly by

.html.html OK, I still wasn't satisfied with the back cover I did for my DVD cover of BENEATH, so here's what I hope is my final version.  I found the image I've put on the top of the back cover in my computer.  I think it was James that posted it once.

I'm about to start on covers for CONQUEST and BATTLE, and then I'm going to revisit the original again.

Anyone who what's these JPGs e-mailed directly to them just let me know.  I print them up at work, where there's a nice digital printer that prints on real photographic paper, and they come out nice.  I haven't finished the other APES films yet because I'm redoing covers for so many of my DVDs.

As I've said in the past, Boulle has a history of naming characters after
characters in Joseph Conrad novels (his favorite author). So I would submit
that Boulle named Cornelius after the Cornelius in "Lord Jim" (Boulle's
favorite novel). - - - Jeff

Lucked out with my URL. With the music, just go to the bands page and
click "add" on their player and it will directly link the song to
your page. For pictures I dump them into "photo bucket" and it
generates a code for you to "copy". You then take that code
and "paste" it on your page through the edit Myspace option. You just
paste it in whatever section you want the pic to show.

-- Okay we now have a group set up for the uploading of those
rare photographs and other stuff that we were discussing the other week
for the Rare Photos CD project.
It is an old DG group set up a few years ago for DG related projects
that was hardly ever used for anything and is appropriately called Pota
DG Projects.
I have done some 'house cleaning' and it is now ready for use.

It can be found here:
http://movies.groups.yahoo.com/group/PotaDGprojects/

Any of you who wish to start uploading pictures just need to let us
know on the DG and I will send you an invite or you can go to the group
and join yourself.

No problem. I'm still waiting for some more apes photos. I want to a

something like a "Planet of the Apes" art book with rare photos and the

Issue 83 is now available to download from Hunter's site. The Future History Chronicles continue this issue. Two bonus items this issue: a photo of Roddy McDowall as Galen and a full-page ad from the UK PotA Fan Club with their Planet of the Apes Mastermind 1976 contest. How many questions can YOU answer correctly?

Don't know if everyone is familiar with Toyfare magazine.....it's all about action figures and every issue they do a strip called "Twisted Toyfare Theatre" where they use action figures in a comic strip form. It used to be called Twisted MEGO Theatre but I think they got in trouble ...Here is part of the current issue. It has a Probe Driod from Star Wars dropping into other universes like Superman, He-Man, LOTR, and Star Trek where after Kirk learns it is a "probe" droid locks himself in a room with it! At one point the droid lands on a distant forest planet......

At http://www.tvshowsondvd.com/newsitem.cfm?NewsID=5668 it says a card in the new DVD season of the TV show "M*A*S*H" announces when the series is done being released on DVD in November, there will be an "Ultimate" collection of the entire series. It will include "extras". Well, the loyal "M*A*S*H" fans who have been collecting the series haven't had extras. So, unless they plan on including those extras on the final season (Season 11), the most loyal fans will be forced to rebuy the entire series or do without. Kinda puts them in the same place as "Ape" fans (who, so far, have had to buy the "Ultimate" collection or miss out on the official cartoons). But this collection will probably be more expensive (seasons go for about $30 - 40 each, though ironically I just got about 5 used season for $9 each). This is only the second "Ultimate" collection from Fox I've heard about, so maybe it's a trend.

True. However, some chimps might have walked upright, like Oliver, who has a
mutated gene, causing him to walk upright. Most science thought he was a
hybrid, but since looking at his DNA, they concluded that he has unusual
gene not commonly found in todays chimps. In fact they think he came from a
troop unigue to chimps. Thanks to bush meat and the destruction of the
chimps' habitat, his troop inevitably no longer exist. Sigh!

Yeah, the rumors of a new season of Futurama are false as well.

Fox is just going to do a few direct to disc movies.  Milk it for all

it's worth, and then sell it to Adult Swim.  Sounds like something

Fox would do. They are the Entertainment "Pushers" of Hollywood.

Yes, but you must pay. Pay, or wait.  That's how it is with Fox.  Money talks. But even though that crap version of POTA did well, extremely well for the opening week, it wasn't enough for them. Maybe they're just waiting for Zanuck to die.  That might be best.  Zanuck + Apes spells Stinkberger! 

 

But it's interesting that when Sir Ian McKellan was asked about X Men,  . . . Singer?  Or Ratner? he said, "I can assure you Brett won't be pulling a Tim Burton.  He won't be taking it in a different direction on this one. "

 

I guess that has become a new phrase in Hollywood . . .

Re-imagining - v. aka "Pulling a Tim Burton" :  To take an established film franchise in a new direction, which is decidedly, not for the better.   (also see pulling a Zanuck)

 

Pulling a Zanuck - v. To hire the wrong man for the job and ruin a pictures chances of being good from the start. (also see The Producer's Joke) 

 

The Producer's Joke -  A Director and a Producer are in the desert scouting a location for a shoot when suddenly the car breaks down.  They walk for hours until they find an oasis.  The director begins drinking from it thirstily, while the producer proceeds to urinate into it.

 

"What the hell do you think you're doing!?!", asks the director.

 

To which the producer replies, "I'm making it better."

"Humanzee" I believe, is correct. It first aired on "Animal Planet" in 2003.
Oliver is still around. I believe he lives in the chimp sanctuary in
Arizona. He not walking upright these days as he suffers from arthristis. As
for the green tunic. Well, he'd smoking a cigar too. He loves his cigars as
well as his beer. :0)

Actually this isn't that shocking, when you consider that everyone

looked like a monkey back then, there no reason why anyone would

even notice the split between apes and human for a million years.

I've been waiting for someone to say that they did not like the
seconday story in ROTPOTA #4. I can easily see how this is would not
be everyone's cup of tea. The entire story hinges upon that last act
of insanity and either you buy into it or you don't. It also ennerved
me when I first read it, but unlike you (and I'm sure others), it
really made me ponder the 'why did she do that?' question. And it was
at that point that I really got to enjoy the story.

My take on it is that she was not the most stable person in the first
place. She obviously had a chip on her shoulder with her grumblings
that we read right at the beginning of the story. Here she is
begrudging her dad when those events in her life have been old
history. At the same time she does have some feeling for everyone
concerned. What really makes this story nice is that while she herself
does not know it, her fate (because of her actions) are immediately
tied to apes, and the reader also knows that her dad's fate was also
tied to apes. When Taylor screams out at the end of POTA, "Damn them!
They really did it. They blew it up." is he not (essentially) also
talking about her? Emmotions are running high and she, in essence,
just loses it and did some blowing up of her own, perhaps regretfully.

Like POTA, this is a human nature story and apes are just used as a
backdrop to convey the story. This could have been any hostage
taking, riot or other tense situation piting two opposing groups.

One last point. The believability of the story is what really
determines whether someone likes it or not. If the central character
is portrayed as being too irrational before the climax, then the
shooting becomes something the reader can guess all to easily. If the
character is portrayed as being very soft and docile, then the event
really becomes irrational. A fine line indeed, and certainly NOT an
easy task for any writer (or artist having to convey those feelings).

Now I that I realize that I'm begining to tell an artist how hard it
is to be an artist, I think I'll shut up now and crawl back to my
corner. ;)
