Well, TV is different. You need so much
material other people have to write it. But a comic strip, something one
individual has been doing for 50 years, should be left alone. By then it's run
it's course anyway. I guess creators can put a stop to it. No one picked up the
baton on "Calvin and Hobbes" and "The Far Side", and those left when they were
very popular. Jeff

That's great about the graphic novel, Ty!
I agree, "The Simpsons" is and has to be a
group effort because it's a TV show/franchise. But Groening also does a comic
strip, "Life In Hell", which is his baby. I doubt someone else would do that.
That's why I kinda get annoyed that Groening's signature is on all the publicity
drawings for "Simpsons" - - the TV Guide ads, the comic book covers, etc.
unless he personally draws them (which I doubt). Kinda like how the Scrooge
McDuck comic strips were creditted "by Walt Disney". Let those who do the work
have their name on there. Comic strips are supposed to have a personality,
they're shouldn't be corporate-run. But of course we know there's always money
to be made (ask the Goldman family about OJ's book) so most things will get run
into the ground one way or another. Jeff

Slightly off the POTA track, but the Simpsons came up.
Matt has
written very very few episodes of the show, less than a half dozen in the last
fifteen years, I'll wager, and I don't think I can come up with any, other
than the pilot and the Tracy Shorts. Although he's very much the head of the
family, the show was always intended to be the work of many, many hands, most
prominently James Brooks, Brad Bird, John Swartzwelder, and tons of other
people, from day one (and nowadays, myself, toiling in the books and comics
dept.)
For something as personal as a comic strip, always the
work of a single human mind, I'll grant you it should probably be put to rest
with the original creator. That's why I was pleased to see Peanuts bow
out with Charles Shultz, but the Simpsons has always been a group
effort. (Personally I believe the best episodes are the ones written by
Shwartzwelder and the small, but delightful number of episodes written by
Conan O'Brien.)
Onto a POTA note. I'll guess most of us
here prefer the script to the original POTA movie above the the novel by
Boulle; I know I do. I think Wilson and Serling's work, over someone
else's creation, led to a fabulous NEW thing we all admire. And the
later work by Dehn, some of it good, some of it, not so much, still
entertained the hell out of all of us.
I think the best
solution, is to let it happen, and let the fans decide what should or
shouldn't be done with other people's creations after they pass away, or stop
working on it. We the fans, instinctively know when it's okay.
Pogo attempted to continue after Walt Kelly died (notably with his wife and
inking assistants continuing on, with little change in visual style) but it
didn't last more than a year because the fans knew it. But James Bond
seems to thrive in the absence of Ian Fleming lately, and does anyone really
notice that Bob Kane and Bill Finger haven't worked on Batman since the
Fifties? There's been some good Batman since the fifties.
BY THE
WAY. I was talking to our publisher this week, and the Revolution
graphic novel is absolutely coming out before Christmas. I'm as
surprised as you guys, but it's actually coming out. WOO HOO!
And
in other MrComics news.... www.hoverboy. com is
up and running, with a funny film about Hoverboy featuring my ugly face, and a
few other interesting people.

Great cover, but the Statue of
Liberty/apocalypse theme has become so diluted by use, does it even make people
think of POTA any more?

Slightly off the POTA track, but the Simpsons came
up.
Matt has written very very few episodes of the show, less than a
half dozen in the last fifteen years, I'll wager, and I don't think I can
come up with any, other than the pilot and the Tracy Shorts. Although he's
very much the head of the family, the show was always intended to be the
work of many, many hands, most prominently James Brooks, Brad Bird, John
Swartzwelder, and tons of other people, from day one (and nowadays, myself,
toiling in the books and comics dept.)
For something as
personal as a comic strip, always the work of a single human mind, I'll
grant you it should probably be put to rest with the original creator.
That's why I was pleased to see Peanuts bow out with Charles Shultz, but the
Simpsons has always been a group effort. (Personally I believe the
best episodes are the ones written by Shwartzwelder and the small, but
delightful number of episodes written by Conan O'Brien.)
Onto a POTA
note. I'll guess most of us here prefer the script to the
original POTA movie above the the novel by Boulle; I know I do. I
think Wilson and Serling's work, over someone else's creation, led to a
fabulous NEW thing we all admire. And the later work by Dehn, some of
it good, some of it, not so much, still entertained the hell out of all of
us.
I think the best solution, is to let it happen, and let
the fans decide what should or shouldn't be done with other people's
creations after they pass away, or stop working on it. We the fans,
instinctively know when it's okay. Pogo attempted to continue after
Walt Kelly died (notably with his wife and inking assistants continuing on,
with little change in visual style) but it didn't last more than a year
because the fans knew it. But James Bond seems to thrive in the
absence of Ian Fleming lately, and does anyone really notice that Bob Kane
and Bill Finger haven't worked on Batman since the Fifties? There's
been some good Batman since the fifties.
BY THE WAY. I was
talking to our publisher this week, and the Revolution graphic novel is
absolutely coming out before Christmas. I'm as surprised as you guys,
but it's actually coming out. WOO HOO!

Yeah, I think Mr. Comics readers will get
the connection because of "Revolution" but in general...just this year the
destroyed Statue appeared in the teaser poster for "Cloverfield", the poster for
"Resident Evil: Extinction" and the hot new video game (can't think of the
title). It's become such a cliche now (ID4, "Day After Tomorrow") I wonder if it
dilutes the ending of POTA for new viewers.

Nah, Garfield was a group effort from the first year onwards. (I know a number of Garfield ghosts, they're common in my biz.)
And it's rarely about just the art style, in my opinion. It's more about getting the WHOLE thing "right". If Dennis the Menace still feels right to its fans, then it should
continue. (I don't live in a market that still carries Dennis, so I didn't know it was continuing, but good on it, if it's still quality work.)
Anything that feels "right" should continue. It's far more about the fans deciding, than the creators, or their successors.
I'm thrilled that Serling and Dehn continued the ideas and characters first seen in Boulle's novel, and most of us here are, as well. It's all about what the fans accept. Throw it ALL against
the wall, and see what sticks.

The Apes movies continuously destroyed American iconography for a specific contextual reason (the statue of Liberty in Apes, Times Square in Beneath, the American political and law
enforcement system in Conquest, etc.) At the time they came out, they were STRONGLY political films (a fact somewhat diluted by time), and were trying to deconstruct American imperialism against Asia, and American
racism in their own inner cities.
I'm not sure the Sydney Opera house gets to any of that metaphorically, as lovely as the building is. :) Ty the Guy On 10/14/07,

Yeah, I think Mr. Comics readers will get the
connection because of "Revolution" but in general...just this year
the destroyed Statue appeared in the teaser poster for "Cloverfield",
the poster for "Resident Evil: Extinction" and the hot new video game
(can't think of the title). It's become such a cliche now (ID4, "Day After
Tomorrow") I wonder if it dilutes the ending of POTA for new viewers.

I wasn't too worried if people "got" it or
not. I just figured, since Mr. Comics published POTA, and they're
publishing Hoverboy, we'd do a minor shout out that made sense.

Slightly off the POTA track, but the Simpsons came up.
Matt has written very very few episodes of the show, less than a half dozen in
the last fifteen years, I'll wager, and I don't think I can come up with any,
other than the pilot and the Tracy Shorts. Although he's very much the head of
the family, the show was always intended to be the work of many, many hands,
most prominently James Brooks, Brad Bird, John Swartzwelder, and tons of other
people, from day one (and nowadays, myself, toiling in the books and comics
dept.)
For something as personal as a comic strip, always the work of a single human
mind, I'll grant you it should probably be put to rest with the original
creator. That's why I was pleased to see Peanuts bow out with Charles
Shultz, but the Simpsons has always been a group effort. (Personally I
believe the best episodes are the ones written by Shwartzwelder and the small,
but delightful number of episodes written by Conan O'Brien.)
Onto a POTA note. I'll guess most of us here prefer the script to
the original POTA movie above the the novel by Boulle; I know I do. I
think Wilson and Serling's work, over someone else's creation, led to a
fabulous NEW thing we all admire. And the later work by Dehn, some of it
good, some of it, not so much, still entertained the hell out of all of
us.
I think the best solution, is to let it happen, and let the fans decide what
should or shouldn't be done with other people's creations after they pass away,
or stop working on it. We the fans, instinctively know when it's okay.
Pogo attempted to continue after Walt Kelly died (notably with his wife
and inking assistants continuing on, with little change in visual style) but it
didn't last more than a year because the fans knew it. But James Bond
seems to thrive in the absence of Ian Fleming lately, and does anyone really
notice that Bob Kane and Bill Finger haven't worked on Batman since the
Fifties? There's been some good Batman since the fifties.
BY THE WAY. I was talking to our publisher this week, and the Revolution
graphic novel is absolutely coming out before Christmas. I'm as surprised
as you guys, but it's actually coming out. WOO HOO!
And in other MrComics news.... www.hoverboy.com
is up and running, with a funny film about Hoverboy featuring my ugly face, and
a few other interesting people.

enjoy it for what it was -- and
I bought 2 copies of each issue when they came out. Just doin' my part for POTA, you know. And, I'll be buying 2 copies of the graphic novel, too. So, I'm happy as a termite-fishin' chimp that
REVOLUTION is getting the GN treatment.

Hey Patrick
In WITHIN Neil and I had Milo there well before Cornelius..BUT we knew this could be a problem so we made it that they were there without anyone's knowledge but Zaius.
However I think I fell over this by having Marcus report things to Ursus, suggesting that Marcus went into the FZ to spy.
Rewrite time! :-)
______________________________________________________________
Hey Mike
Taking all 5 films into account, it's obvious that Milo had to have ventured into the Forbidden Zone at some point, and there are any number of scenarios that can be cooked up to cover that.
I think it's imperative, though, that Milo -- whenever or however he traveled there -- did not
do so on any official basis, with approval from Zaius and/or the Academy. Milo is a chimp, and Zaius "looks down his nose on chimpanzees" (according to Zira), right? In Cornelius' estimation, Milo was
"a genius far in advance of his time"... but his genius wouldn't necessarily be recognized by Zaius and the orangutans; remember, Cornelius' own "brilliant hypothesis" was deemed by
"half the Academy" to be Heresy! Chances are that Milo's brilliant hypotheses would similarly be deemed foolish at best -- and heretical at worst -- by the orangutan-controlled Academy.
My own take on this Milo-in-the-FZ plot involves two lines in PLANET
, spoken by Zira and Cornelius, respectively. Zira mentions Cornelius' trip into the Forbidden Zone which had occurred "over a year ago" -- she mentions "his trip" and
not "our trip"... indicating that Cornelius went there, but Zira herself did not go. But did Cornelius go there alone? No!
When Taylor asks Cornelius, "Where does this river lead to?", Cornelius tells him -- at one point -- that "we had no boats on
our last expedition."
"We"...? That plural word implies that Cornelius had to have had at least one fellow explorer with him. He says "our last expedition"... meaning that it wasn't just
his own, sole expedition.
We know from ESCAPE that Milo found the ANSA ship which they later flew up into orbit "on our seaboard" -- the word seaboard meaning the
coast of the sea. And the word "sea" is used by Cornelius in BENEATH to denote not the lake into which the PLANET
ship sank [i.e. "Dead Lake"], but the ocean. I have deduced that this third ANSA ship -- unlike the PLANET
ship with its depleted power supplies and the BENEATH ship with its "computer... shot" -- had to have been landed by other
ANSA astronauts somewhere further along the shoreline, beyond
the half-buried Statue of Liberty. Taylor never saw it because once he reached the Statue, he and Nova couldn't get around it on horseback: they had to have backtracked on the beach, in the direction of the
Cave but venturing inland before that. And, since that third spacecraft had to have had a Power supply and a working Computer, that rules out
either of the two ships we'd already seen in the first two movies. Oh, and there's that gull-wing hatch in the ship's cockpit, too... proving
that the third ship existed, and that there must have been other ANSA astronauts in the vicinity during the events of BENEATH (and PLANET
) who had landed it safely on the shore for Milo to later find.
Here's another thought: Cornelius worked at "the diggings"... at the Cave site, we know. But how did all that woodwork
get built, and who built it? If it was only Cornelius and Milo together, not only mapping the Forbidden Zone to a great degree [i.e. the convoluted shoreline of Dead Lake which we see on Cornelius' map] but
also carting all those logs from who-knows-where to the Cave site, and then constructing the causeway and the platform just outside the Cave's entrance... how much time would that have taken???
I submit the probability that Cornelius' expedition to the Forbidden Zone was done with a team of chimpanzee science students who were all willing to assist Dr. Cornelius in his illegal
endeavours, with many of those students working at a DECOY site (where Zaius and the Academy thought
Cornelius would be spending all his time), somewhere in the "allowed" areas covered by the Travel Permit. But there would also be a group of students helping Cornelius bring all the logs (etc) to the
Cave
site and building the causeway (etc) to his specifications. During those times, if any representative from the Academy were to go to the Decoy site, asking to speak to Cornelius, one of his students would
give him the runaround, lying to him that Cornelius was somewhere else (yet not in the Forbidden Zone, of course).
I also submit that the artifacts which Cornelius found -- some of them, but not all
of them, of course -- he brought back with him from the Cave site to the Decoy site and, when Zaius found him there at the Decoy site, Cornelius pretended
to have discovered those artifacts at the Decoy site... but Zaius suspected that they came from a site in the Forbidden Zone. He suspected it, but couldn't prove it
. However, on the suspicion
that Cornelius had violated the law and gone into the Forbidden Zone, Zaius revoked his Travel Permit [preventing him from bringing more artifacts to that decoy site] and then bided his time, plotting to find
some way to "expose" Cornelius... to get him to admit that he had violated the terms of his Travel Permit.
That's what the Tribunal/Hearing was all about: using Taylor as a feint to get Cornelius to blab the truth about having been to the Forbidden Zone. And Zaius' plan worked perfectly.
Back to Milo.
If the State keeps tabs on the whereabouts of its citizens -- forcing them to apply for Travel Permits in order to move around -- then why didn't they keep better tabs on Milo? It's evident that Milo
wasn't stopped from his doings in the Forbidden Zone when Zaius put the kibosh on Cornelius' activities. Why not?
Well... what do we know about Milo? Not much. For all we know, Milo wasn't even a native to that part of the world! Maybe he was a traveler, having been born in the region where the TV show took place (Central
City/California/West Coast)... and, at some point in his life, traveled across the continent to discover the Ape City area from inland.
Zaius wonders whether or not there is "another jungle beyond the Forbidden Zone"... but what about other
habitable places beyond the other side of the Ape-inhabited region? There's a reference in the BENEATH novelization*
that the entire habitable region was surrounded completely by desert -- though, admittedly, this dialogue isn't in the actual movie -- so that Zaius might also
wonder what may lie beyond the desert regions further inland.
[* The reference is in the 4th chapter [URSUS
], where General Ursus says, "I saw our country imprisoned on one side by the sea, and by north and south and west--by naked desert." -- see page 27 of Michael Avallone's novelization. Among other
things, this gives further evidence to the notion that Cornelius' map -- when he showed it to Taylor -- was positioned with WEST at the top... and, when he showed it to Brent, he indicated that "deep into the
area" the Apes call the Forbidden Zone, Taylor's heading, was "towards the NORTH"... and not towards the East. Ah, but that's an argument we need not go into here!]
Back to Milo. Maybe he came from the California region. Who's to say?
Maybe, alternatively, Milo had faked his death
and then traveled incognito, avoiding gorilla-manned garrisons and outposts so as to make secret trips of his own into the Forbidden Zone, both with and without Cornelius. If Cornelius' earlier trip into the
Forbidden Zone was with the help of Milo and others (i.e. chimp science students), and if that trip did not involve the use of boats ["... and we had no boats on our last expedition...
"], then perhaps Milo made other trips to the Cave site without
Cornelius, in the time between Cornelius' first and second expeditions -- using boats to get from the "good" side of the Map to the "bad" (forbidden) side of the Map. Maybe Milo owned an
estate on the actual oceanic coastline, and could then go out via boat far enough so as to not be seen by any gorilla sentries looking out from outposts along the shoreline. Who knows?
I submit the probability that Milo used boats of his own to get to the Cave site -- and beyond
it, to the location further down the shoreline where that ANSA vehicle had been safely landed by those mysterious other astronauts who had to have landed it. How else could he have gotten past the Statue of Liberty
site? As Cornelius told Taylor, "You can't ride along the shore at high tide..." And even if one were to try
to do so, getting around the Statue via horseback would be impossible, given the size of those waves crashing into the beach and into those rocks hemming in the Statue to the cliff in that cul-de-sac.
Unless Milo rode a horse along the top of the cliff overlooking that beach and then found the ANSA ship perched on its launch stage below, he had
to have gotten to that spacecraft's landing site by boat. And, prior to the detonation of the Alpha Omega bomb, Milo probably took Zira and Cornelius to that seaboard site by boat, too, for at least two
reasons:
1) It would be faster going from Ape City to that beach site by boat, since there is a waterway (river) leading from Ape City all the way to the Sea... "to the diggings" (the Cave)... and only by boat
could they get past the Statue of Liberty site to the part of the shoreline where the awaiting spacecraft had been landed.
2) By going via boat -- and avoiding a land-route on horseback -- they not only avoid the possibility of running into Ursus' army, but they also can't be exposed to the effects of the Mutants' illusions.
Chances are that the Mutants would have hit them with Visual and Sonic Deterrents if
they had galloped anywhere within the zone of influence of their mental abilities. None of the Ape-onauts ever mentions having seen the weird "manifestations" that Ursus tells Zaius his scout had
reported, and the Mutants -- who can "see" the approaching Ape Army -- never "see" the traveling chimpanzees, or, at least, they never mention seeing them. I submit that the best explanation for this
is that Milo took his two friends with him to the spacecraft site by boat, remaining out of the reach of both Ursus' army and the Mutants' illusions.
There are any number of scenarios that can be imagined by POTA fans to cover the in-between stories, the Milo stuff, etc... but I submit that a theory which doesn't adequately cover all
the facts already given in the movies, and which violates them, should be acknowledged as being impossible to fit into the Canon. That's not to say that POTA fans can't
enjoy an uncanonical tale here and there -- I myself have enjoyed many POTA stories (be they from Marvel, from Ty, from the team that brought us WITHIN
) which I feel don't fit the facts well enough. I enjoyed the cartoon series for what it was... but I don't consider it part of the POTA Canon. For me, only the 5 films and the 14 TV episodes
truly belong in the Canon. Others don't count the TV show, and include only the 5 films. At least one POTA fan -- and you can probably guess who that
is! -- doesn't include anything but the 1st film.
To each their own.

I really don't see why it is such a big deal if I like them
______________________________________________________
David,
1) It isn't such a big deal to me that you like the "CORNELIUS' JOURNALS" thing. As I said before, Good for you if they do entertain you. I'm glad for you.
Having said that, there are people of the swishy persuasion who like reading fanfics that present Kirk and Spock as being homosexual lovers... and it doesn't bother me that they like those, either. But I do
not consider such fanfics to belong in the STAR TREK canon!
But does that mean that the writers of those gay Kirk-Spock stories shouldn't be free to write them, or for others to enjoy them? Nope. But, as far as I'm concerned, Kirk was -- or will be
-- the most heterosexual male human being living in the 23rd Century, bar none! Kirk would've f***ed that Horta from "DEVIL IN THE DARK" -- which was female, if you'll remember -- if he
wouldn't have been afraid of gettin' his Little Jimmy burnt off!
And Spock, what with his Seven-Year-Itch (the pon farr
), cannot be gay either: remember the episode where the spores force Spock to give in to his emotions... and he falls in love -- and is happy for the first time in his life -- with a woman
(played by Jill Ireland, I think it was)...? If he were gay, he'd have politely rebuffed her and gone a-sauntering over to one of the male colonists to get some Brokeback mountin' action, if ya know what I
mean.
Which reminds me of a joke: How do they separate the men from the boys in the Greek navy? -- With a crowbar, that's how!
2) I am very strict in my interpretation of the POTA stories, but that does not mean that I don't speculate, David. I speculate a whole helluva lot
, believe me! Mlccougar is absolutely right about that. And I fully encourage other POTA fans to offer up their own speculative interpretations... reserving the right to point out aspects of them which may be flawed
due to the presence in the various films of evidence which doesn't jibe with their interpretations. I also encourage other POTA fans to see if they can point out elements of my own interpretations which
they
feel don't jibe with the POTA canon's evidence, too. I don't want to overlook any detail which may contradict my own POTA scenario, and it helps that there is this rabid fanbase which is more than
willing to point out such details.
Patrick
P.S. If it were up to me, the only films in the STAR WARS canon would be Star Wars, The Empire Strikes Back, and half of
The Return of the Jedi
. I would ditch the prequel trilogy entirely and get rid of that whole nauseating notion that Luke and Leia were actually brother-and-sister all along. Luke has the hots for her in Star Wars
, sharing a kiss at one point, right before the gallant swing-across-the-chasm... and in Empire
she plants a smacker onto his kisser after he recuperates from cold exposure on Hoth -- a kiss which he obviously delighted
in, to Han's dismay. When Lucas revealed that Luke and Leia were siblings in Jedi, he made watching those earlier scenes from SW and Empire
acquire an Ick-factor. As in Ewww... As in, George, what the f*** is up with this incest crap?
I, for one, don't believe that Lucas planned out a six- or nine-episode epic, only to decide to film the 4th story in it first, blah blah blah. Oh, Lucas will go to his grave claiming
that he'd planned it all out beforehand, but I think he's a damned liar. STAR WARS was great, don't get me wrong. But he hoped it would make its money back,
not knowing that it would. Spielberg -- who was making CE3K
at the time -- and Lucas gave each other a percentage of the profits of their respective films, Lucas thinking that Spielberg's movie would make more money. Spielberg, as he's said in interviews, got
the better end of the deal! But Lucas didn't know SW
would go through the roof Box Office-wise... so, when it came time to make a sequel he had to come up with a story that would be a worthy follow-up.
And he left his options open! He had Darth Vader claiming to be Luke's father... but we didn't find out that he actually was beyond a doubt until Yoda, in JEDI
, admitted this to Luke. He could have had Jedi establish that Darth's claim to be Luke's father was a lie
... part of his attempt to turn Luke to the Dark Side of the Force. And Yoda's reference to "... there is another..." (i.e. another person capable of being trained in the ways of the Force)
could've been exploited not with Leia but with Han Solo.
Remember the scene in Jedi
where Han gets the weird feeling that he's never going to see the Millennium Falcon again, right before they take off for Endor in that Imperial Shuttle? Well, with Lando Calrissian (and his sidekick)
flying the Falcon in the strike on the newer Death Star, Lucas had the original cut of Jedi culminate in the Falcon hitting the Death Star's reactor core... and then being destroyed when the thing blew up
. Lucas was actually going to have one of the heroes fighting this "star war" die
in that battle. As part of a character arc, it made sense for Lando -- who had betrayed Han in Empire -- to pay a price for that betrayal.
And Han's premonition about never seeing the Falcon again... that could easily have led to Han Solo himself becoming the "another" one mentioned by Yoda. So much time spent in the presence of a budding
Jedi Knight (Luke) was beginning to rub off on that ol' pirate. That premonition could've led to Han becoming trained to be another Jedi Knight, to join Luke in the return of the Jedi... and, who knows? Harrison
Ford might've been intrigued enough by such a turn of events, by such a potential change in his character, that he might've been willing to make a 4th Star Wars movie, since there'd be something new for him
to play.
But that all changed when Lucas had a preview showing of JEDI
... and fans filling out those cards at the end of the screening voiced their complaint that the Millennium Falcon gets destroyed in the battle. I'm sure the black (i.e. African American) people in that
preview audience also voiced a complaint that the only black person in the story gets killed!
So, what did George do? He changed the ending. He filmed a special effects sequence where the Falcon manages to zip past the fireball in the nick of time, Lando going "Yoo-hoo!" with delight...
and they refilmed the Ewok-dance at the end, so as to show Lando present there, rather than him being a casualty of the war.
In order to placate the preview audience, Lucas changed Jedi
-- making it a lesser movie, in my opinion. And, by removing the significance of that "funny feeling" Han has... his possible Force-provided premonition
of the demise of the Millennium Falcon... he had to have somebody else be the "another"... and that's where he got severely stupid and had Leia be it. And not only that
-- not only is she the "another" last hope for the Rebellion, for the re-emergence of the Jedi -- but George had to go and make her Luke's goddamned sister!
Thanks, George! Thanks for making perfectly wonderful scenes from Star Wars and Empire feel icky in retrospect!
I can almost hear him now. There's royal incest in Greek Myth (Zeus and Hera were married siblings)... in Egyptian Myth (Osiris and Isis, ditto)... and Star Wars
is all about re-inventing Myth for the Space Age, following Joseph Campbell's studies. So who gives a damn that Luke wanted to stick his flesh-sabre into his sister's gash-compactor?
Well... I, for one, you bearded big-wig bastard!

pond, "Wah-HOOOO!! !" This is great
news. Although I may have my issues with the canonicity of the story told in REVOLUTION,
it was a new POTA project
with some great art (and, some not-so-great, but what-the-hell! ) and with some interesting ideas thrown
in... and I did enjoy it
for what it was -- and I
bought 2 copies of each issue when they came out. Just doin' my part for POTA,
you know. And, I'll be buying 2 copies of the graphic novel, too. So, I'm happy
as a termite-fishin' chimp that REVOLUTION is getting
the GN treatment.

Ursus, suggesting that Marcus went into the FZ to spy.

Hey Mike
Taking
all 5 films into account, it's obvious that Milo had to have ventured into the Forbidden
Zone at some point, and
there are any number of scenarios that can be cooked up to cover that.
I think
it's imperative, though, that Milo -- whenever or however he traveled there -- did
not do so on any official basis, with
approval from Zaius and/or the Academy. Milo
is a chimp, and Zaius "looks down his nose on chimpanzees" (according
to Zira), right? In Cornelius' estimation, Milo
was "a genius far in advance of his time"... but his genius wouldn't
necessarily be recognized by Zaius and the orangutans; remember, Cornelius' own
"brilliant hypothesis" was deemed by "half the Academy" to
be Heresy! Chances are that Milo 's brilliant
hypotheses would similarly be deemed foolish at best -- and heretical at worst
-- by the orangutan-controlle d Academy.

That's Andy. The funniest character on Little Britain.
My wife came back from Britain and got me hooked
on the show from this character alone. He's one of
those people taking advantage of the National Health
program in Britain. He's in a wheelchair and has this
volunteer Lou, who push his chair around and helps
him with every little thing. The joke is he's not really
a cripple, and as soon as Lou's back is turned he's
out of the chair doing stuff. It's on BBC America.
Here's a link to learn more about the character

.html Hello everyone. I am a new member here, so glad to have found this
group. I have been enjoying all of the photos of the group. So nice
to meet with others who have the same passion as me.
I did a search for Mego and kind of read up the posts on that. I
recently bought a Mego Zira doll and she's currently standing at my
desk next to the Cornelius Mego doll. I am going to sew her up
another more accurate outfit. Has anybody in this group done this
for your Zira dolls, and may I see photos?
Also, I just bought a Sideshow Zaius and he was delivered to my eager
little paws a few days ago. I hate the way they bound him up. The
wires are messing up his jacket and I'm afraid it will be permanently
wrinkled. They should have bound only his legs. So my question is,
am I going to ruin the overall value of the doll if I open up the box
and unbind him so that his jacket is not wrinkled? What do
collectors do?
I have two sideshow Zira dolls coming as well. One will be to never
open, and the other one I will play with. Does anybody in this group
play with their Planet of the Apes dolls? If so, what is your
favorite doll to play with...and am I crazy? Planet of the Apes is
my first love I admit.

I think our favorite toys to actually "play" with are the Medicom

Jessica, you are wise my friend.
I took the sideshow Zira out of the box.
It was put into another box with some
odds and ends while tidying up and
another box was put on top of it without
closing the flaps on the first box. I didn't
think anything about it, as I didn't consider
anything in the bottom box to be fragile.
A word of warning. Sideshow's are weak
in the knee joints. If I ever get a second
one, the box will probably stay sealed.
Perhaps there is an after-market body
with good old fashioned joints on it.

Yes, the magazine is still in production and
they still have those monthly price guides in the middle ( http://www.leestoyreview.com ).
I'm sure when they were researching that prices were inflated because the 2001
movie was coming out. After it arrived, everything flatlined.

Thanks Tim. Ultimately, the question I was after was "Where would I
get a copy of my own if I wanted one." SO my second question would
have been, does anyone have a pic of the cover of the magazine. So
you've already answered my real question!
In answer to Mike's
comment about the validity of this, or any other price guide for that
matter, I don't see much use for them in that regard. Prices are always
subjective to begin with, fluctuate wildly with time, and are more related
to actual availability/ demand ratio at the time of a particular
instance in time. So essentially, they are useless to helping you
determine an actual price. They are OK for judging whether a particular
item may be more sought after than another. They are great to just let a
reader know 'what's out there'.
But I like them only because they can
have a lot of nice pictures and I use them for reference
material.
Thanks guys, Dario

I played with Zira all evening and re-posed her again this morning. I am having so much fun with the doll! I was trying to take off her boots, but they wouldn't come off easily and I was afraid to
ruin her so they stayed on. The sideshow doll is super poseable, and I am so happy with it. Thanks for the warning regarding the joints--didn't realize that. Zira is so very beautiful! Does
your Sideshow Zira have her pocket glyph sewn upside down? Both of mine are sewn upside down. I don't know what to do with the other items that came with the doll, so I guess I'm going to have to sew
together a carpet bag like from Escape to keep them in. I can't wait until I have Cornelius, too. I already have a boxed one, but I want one to play with. Hope I find one that is not so expensive.
Any thoughts about unbinding Dr. Zaius? I don't like the way his jacket is all bunched up.

I agree, Sauseville's book is a good
collection of photos. And takes up a lot less space than an actual collection.
Maybe it's not complete but it's the only book of it's kind out there. I love
those kinds of books, flipping through them. I've got ones for "Star Wars",
"Batman", TV shows, stuff I would never collect but I enjoy having a
"collection" in a book. It probably wouldn't go over here, but I thought someone
should do one of those books on Burton's films since his visuals are so unique
and so many of them spawned toys and stuff. As far as I know, no one has done a
book on "Collecting Tim Burton Films".
But I agree Sauseville's choices
weren't always the best (pictures of scripts, etc.). Jeff

I agree, Sauseville's book is a good collection of photos. And takes up a lot less space than an actual collection. Maybe it's not complete but it's the only book of

"collection" in a book. It probably wouldn't go over here, but I thought
someone should do one of those books on Burton's films since his visuals are so unique and so many of them spawned toys and stuff. As far as I know, no one has done a book on "Collecting Tim Burton
Films". But I agree Sauseville's choices weren't always the best (pictures of scripts, etc.). Jeff

Damn, even
the Aussie cricket team is conspiring against POTA! :-)
A SENIOR Cricket Australia
official has revealed that "don't go ape" will be the thrust of an anti-racism
marketing campaign this summer to prevent a repeat of the ugly incidents in
India last week. A nasty race row erupted when Australian
all-rounder Andrew Symonds was taunted with monkey noises and gestures by Indian
crowds during the one-day series on the Subcontinent.
Australian cricket bosses are desperate to avoid acts of retaliation against
the touring Indian and Sri Lankan teams this summer and have fast-tracked
pointed public service announcements.

Why Dogs Make the Best Friends
Women, money and friends come and go, but dogs are
forever.
By Jim Thornton, Men's Health
"Remember these rules," said my new housemate Adam
about my other new housemate, Diablo, a wolf-German
shepherd mix who looked as though he had eaten more
jugular veins than Snausages. "Don't make quick moves,
don't try to touch him, don't look him in the eye, and
you'll probably be fine."

Speaking of Crap!
Anyone see Circle of Iron the other day?
Of all of Schlonggy McDick's movies that
has to be one of the worst. I still watched it.
It was a step up from Fellini's Satyricon. I
swear they were ripping it off putting The Pike,
Eli Walleye in a vat of oil in the desert. "I seek Zetan."
"There is no answer in Zetan.. The answer
is in here with me! If you won't melt it off
Cut it off! Do it now! For whatever your
dreams are it will ruin them!" Classic stuff.

Flute!

Tvshowsondvd is reporting a rumor that Roddy
McDowall's series from the '80's, "Tales of the Gold Monkey" might be on DVD
next year. It was kind of a cash-in on "Raiders of the Lost Ark" (like
"Battlestar Galactica" tried to do with "Star Wars"). With a new Indie Jones
movie next year, the theory is that it would be a good time to put out the whole
show in a season set ( 20 episodes and the movie opener). For the link:

. May all your monkeys be gold. Jeff

-- Graham, as
far as I know it was never made as it was originally designed. I do know that
Chris ended up deciding to use parts of the artwork on different boxes
but not the whole picture as originally planned.
As for showing the
whole thing, it's not mine so it's not really up to me if I can show it,
sorry.
Neil
Did the box ever get made Neil ?
Any chance of showing the whole thing?

The seller in this
auction is including a couple of the very rare pictures which were sold
at the UK Live Shows and appearances:
Pity he's not
selling them separately.
