**** Being there is nothing ever said that would indicate Chief Councilor Zaius in the TV series is also (Minister of Science and/or) Chief Defender of the Faith, I find that a little hard to believe.

 

Okay, on  the "Mountain of the Delphi" record by POWER records, they call him "Dr. Zaius" after Galen says something about their "Minister of Science", but the fact that they incorrectly call him "Dr. Zaius" says that "Minister of Science" title is also null and void.

 

Not once on the TV series is he called Doctor, and being he is his own character, he never should be. ***

That makes sense. Or perhaps it's a surname - Dr. Jim Zaius? But then
it's back to them being related again...

On the question of Zaius('s) titles - TV Zaius is the head of the ape
council, but is movie Zaius ranked below the 'President of the
Assembly'? Or does his 'Defender of the Faith' role give him extra
authority?

Hi Wayne,
yes, 'Ursus' in the early scripts evolved briefly into 'Urso', before
becoming 'Urko' when it came to filming the first episode. As to why
they thought to change Ursus but keep Zaius, I don't know; certainly
the merchandising was often fairly casual about the distinction between
them.

Neil or Mark - any idea what year that show was? Just expanding the
list of venues from the Simian Scrolls article, I'm guessing it would
have been the summer of 1976? (Sorry, I know you don't remember that
much about it, but just on the off-chance) Thanks.

I cleaned up that avant-garde Romanian poster and put it in
the 'Wallpapers' folder along with Czech poster - somehow those
gorillas remind me of the Blue Meanies...

http://movies.groups.yahoo.com/group/PotaDG/files/Wallpapers%20/

yes, this mask was moulded from a TV gorilla face appliance.it is rather heavy.i put some professional facial make-up on top, to give it a more realistic look.bronzing powder, then placed in the centre of a fake fur cushion, and then in a presentation box.actually, the photo i sent, gives it a strange look of an egyptian pharaoh...so why not a gorilla-pharaoh?make a good story, for the likes of urko to look up to.....instead of the greatest ape. wayne S --- On Sun, 25/1/09, Michael & Sally Whitty <sallywhitty@...> wrote: From: Michael & Sally Whitty <sallywhitty@...> Subject: RE: [PotaDG] Re:PIC 8;Bronze gorilla tv mask*authentic*moulded from original To: PotaDG@yahoogroups.com Date: Sunday, 25 January, 2009, 5:40 AM Can you tell me more about the BRONZE mask?!?!?   From: PotaDG@yahoogroups. com [ PotaDG@yahoogroups. com ] On Behalf Of Wayne Sylvester Sent: Sunday, 25 January 2009 12:43 PM To: PotaDG@yahoogroups. com Subject: [PotaDG] Re:PIC 8;Bronze gorilla tv mask*authentic* moulded from original   Wayne S --- On Sun, 25/1/09, Michael & Sally Whitty <sallywhitty@ bigpond.com> wrote: From: Michael & Sally Whitty <sallywhitty@ bigpond.com> Subject: [PotaDG] Zaius vs Dr Zaius To: PotaDG@yahoogroups. com Date: Sunday, 25 January, 2009, 12:20 AM Are you saying Zaius didn't have a time machine?

I most admit Logans Run was good, but there where other fantastic
American Sci-Fi series which i remember growing up that i loved, Land
of the Giants/ Time Tunnel / V the mini series/ Lost in Space and
some of our own British ( but not quite has good special effects Dr
Who/ Blake 7 to mention a few
But Planet of the Apes was the best of them all, i do wish they had
completed the second series of the T.V show, especially has it was
better recieved over here in the U.K than in the states.
One thing that may have been the problem was over kill with
everything from film / masks / money boxs / toys / jigsaws and the
rest , however it was harder obtained over here so it was still being
well recieved.

That makes sense. Or perhaps it's a surname - Dr. Jim Zaius? But then it's back to them being related again...

**** That's the thing, the apes don't have last names... And even if they did have last names, as I've said before, that doesn't necessarily mean anyone is related. It'd be like saying you're related to everyone who has your last name. ***

 

On the question of Zaius('s) titles - TV Zaius is the head of the ape council, but is movie Zaius ranked below the 'President of the Assembly'? Or does his 'Defender of the Faith' role give him extra
authority?

*** Correct, Dr. Zaius is ranked below the Pesident... He's not "top dog" of the apes. ***

Yes i must admit , its not until you really start looking you see
just how much the Planet of the Apes series have actually done,
although some of it being rubbish ( how i wish i had some of that
rubbish ) probably worth a bit ?
Maybe has i said before but we where a little behind the states here
in the U.K.
I remember how much trouble as a kid ordering the U.K version of the
Marvel comics

*** Yeah, you might have some trouble with that, but your MEGO distributor (PALITOY) made great backing cards for the figures and there were also the UK only puzzles that had scenes from the TV series on them. And you also had the Annuals. So, you may have been behind in getting the stuff, but the TV series had more longevity over there which beats getting a comic on time. ***

In Burton's defence the make-up was fantastic , so was the costumes.
O.k Burton didn't do the make-up or costumes ,but they where good and
if only they had been able to do that back in the early seventy's.
The storyline was crap and i think most people could remember there
lines because they didn't have many.
Other that that it should have won an Oscar????????????

I do remember seeing or reading somewhere that the cost of making
each episode was for the time rather expensive.
Do you really think the B.B.C or I.T.V ( No channel 4 then )could
have paided the fee's required for each episode , dont forget what
the special effects of Dr Who where like back then???? ( exactly )
O.K they didn't finish the first series that was what i was trying to
say they had originally 22 episodes planned

I do remember seeing or reading somewhere that the cost of making each episode was for the time rather expensive.

*** Yes, it's often stated that APES was the most expensive TV series produced up to that time. With all the corners they cut, I find it a little hard to believe. ***

Do you really think the B.B.C or I.T.V ( No channel 4 then )could have paided the fee's required for each episode, dont forget what the special effects of Dr Who where like back then???? ( exactly )

 

*** Not being from the UK, I have no idea of what those networks could have afforded to spend on making an episode. ***

But Planet of the Apes was the best of them all, i do wish they had completed the second series of the T.V show, especially has it was better recieved over here in the U.K than in the states.

*** Second series of the TV show? I wish they had been able to complete the first.

Seeing how huge the show was in the UK, the BBC or something should have obtained the rights to produce the show. And I think the show was more popular here than they let on... The CBS people wanted it gone from the get go, even on the BEHIND interview even Roddy says that it was dead in the water from the start. But, CBS held the reins, so they cancelled it. ****

One thing that may have been the problem was over kill with everything from film / masks / money boxs / toys / jigsaws and the rest, however it was harder obtained over here so it was still being
well recieved.

*** The APES merchandise sold well even after the show was canceled. True, there was a flood of items, and some of it really is crap, but I don't think it was ever overkill... I don't have the number in front of me, but at the time the merchandise sold I think a hundred million dollars worth. It wouldn't have sold that well if nobody wanted it. The idea was the merchandise was going to help promote the show and the show's popularity would sell more merchandise and going by the amount of things sold, that worked at least halfway: The merchandising sales were huge! Roddy was right when he said that they should have used some of the merchandising profits to help subsidize the making of the show. I mean it was sort of "free money" to FOX, so they could have used it to help fund a show which in turn would have sold more items, in the end lining FOX's pockets even more. ***
