Thanks Dario. If that article had been written before the DVD was released I would've taken that as proof, but checking up on it, that issue of Rue Morgue was from the same month (Sept
05) as the DVD box set you mentioned was released. So I'm still not certain the story wasn't just invented then.

You guys should take a listen to the Adam Carolla Podcast with Director Andy Fickman (Escape to Witch Mountain). Towards the end of the Podcast they start talking about Taylor trying to get under the skin of
the other Astronauts. It's really funny. The link is below. The Podcast is from 4/1/09.

I have the Tombs Of The Blind Dead DVD, so I'll give you a rundown on
what's on there regarding this little curio, which takes the form of
a 50-second alternate opening sequence.
Before this plays, however, some on-screen text explains that: "A cut
version of Tombs Of The Blind Dead was released in the US under the
title Revenge Of The Planet Ape in an effort to capitalise on the
success of Planet Of The Apes. The following prologue was added to
make a dubious connection between the two films. It's an excellent
example of the length fly-by-night drive-in distributors would go to
in order to exploit a film."
The prologue then starts. The visuals comprise stills from the film's
main location - a crumbling, ruined Spanish town. As these rotate, an
earnest voice intones: "Legend has it, almost 3,000 years ago, a
simian civilization of super-intelligent apes struggled with man to
gain control of this planet. In the end, man conquered ape after a
brutal battle, which saw him destroy the ape, his culture and
society. After this battle, man tortured and killed all the ape
prisoners by piercing their eyes with a red-hot poker. One of the
prisoners, who was also the leader of the apes, vowed they would
return from the dead to avenge man's brutality - at a point in time
before man destroyed Earth himself. That time is now."
The title is then overlaid in a cartoonish font: Revenge From Planet
Ape (note: a slightly different title from the one introduced in the
explanatory text). The opening credits start to play (these are
straight from the original film), and the sequence fades out, ending
with: "Special thanks to Harry Guerro"
A quick Google leads me to the Exhumed Films website, where Guerro is
listed among their staff as "a serious collector of rare 16mm and
35mm film prints".
It's true that there doesn't seem to be much about Revenge From
Planet Ape on the web. The best I've come up with is this blog, which
features a review from someone claiming to have seen the entire film:
http://mymovie.medialife.org/?action=movieDetails&movieID=1291
It sounds like the screening, from 2007, was public (with the
original Tombs Of The Blind Dead shown the night before, according to
the review underneath), and he or she mentions most of the cuts to
the original film. On the weight of all this, I'm inclined to believe
that it's authentic, though it was clearly unsanctioned at the time:
the handiwork of a dodgy distributor.

I have the Tombs Of The Blind Dead DVD, so I'll give you a rundown on
what's on there regarding this little curio, which takes the form of
a 50-second alternate opening sequence.
Before this plays, however, some on-screen text explains that: "A cut
version of Tombs Of The Blind Dead was released in the US under the
title Revenge Of The Planet Ape in an effort to capitalise on the
success of Planet Of The Apes. The following prologue was added to
make a dubious connection between the two films. It's an excellent
example of the length fly-by-night drive-in distributors would go to
in order to exploit a film."
The prologue then starts. The visuals comprise stills from the film's
main location - a crumbling, ruined Spanish town. As these rotate, an
earnest voice intones: "Legend has it, almost 3,000 years ago, a
simian civilization of super-intelligent apes struggled with man to
gain control of this planet. In the end, man conquered ape after a
brutal battle, which saw him destroy the ape, his culture and
society. After this battle, man tortured and killed all the ape
prisoners by piercing their eyes with a red-hot poker. One of the
prisoners, who was also the leader of the apes, vowed they would
return from the dead to avenge man's brutality - at a point in time
before man destroyed Earth himself. That time is now."

I know people sometimes bid on their own items and get other friends to so it looks like they are popular.
May I ask does anybody here like these?
I am quite offended because the maker is clearly NOT a FAN and is likely just someone else trying to fetch a ludicrous price for something that SAYS Planet of the Apes but has nothing to do with it.
Am I alone here in protest?

I know people sometimes bid on their own items and get other friends to so it looks like they are popular.
May I ask does anybody here like these?
I am quite offended because the maker is clearly NOT a FAN and is likely just someone else trying to fetch a ludicrous price for something that SAYS Planet of the Apes but has nothing to do with it.
Am I alone here in protest?

I notice there’s a certain fellow
saying he like the Blu-Ray animated Lawgiver on the Blu-Ray intros over at our “sister”
group.
I must say both Neil and I were quite
excited about the lawgiver.
Not necessarily what he said but the fact
that he looks so cool as an animated character.
Neil – you liked him too right?
Could someone alert John to the fact that
he’s in good company? J

I don't think so James. Most people probably see this as the shameless rip-off it was and aren't interested, but I'm trying to put together someting about POTA cash-ins such as
this and 'Saru No Gundan', and any others that people care to suggest, and posting my question here has turned out to be very helpful. Sorry you're not excited.

.htmlWhile those trolls are not my cup of tea either, I do like to at least
know about them. Licensed or not, nice or ugly, cheap or expensive, if
there is even a remote tie in to POTA, it should always be valid to be
brought up in these forums. If you don't like it then fine. You can
either ignore it or perhaps state the reasons of your dislike. But how
are we to judge these things if we don't even know about them.
So thanks Micheal for pointing them out, and don't regret doing so.
Besides, those baby monkey dolls were even uglier! ;)

I’ve heard on the apevine these are from

Joe Russo. I saw their Doors gig when I was
in New Jersey. They're pretty good.
I don't think those are his. That doesn't
seem his style to put a few photos on a website like that. He's got much better
ones. But maybe.
Yeah, that's Paula Crist.

On Monday, April 13th, 2009 Yahoo! Groups will undergo scheduled maintenance.
During this time your group will be unavailable for 30-60 minutes.
The
outage is currently scheduled to begin at 1 pm PT, 8 pm GMT. At this time, 1/4
of all Yahoo! Groups will become unavailable while the team services these
groups. Once maintenance is complete on that 1/4 of Groups, they will be made
available again, and the next 1/4 will become unavailable until all of the
groups have been serviced.
In total the maintenance period should last
around 5 hours, with the maintenance concluding around 6 pm PT, midnight
GMT.
While your group is being serviced, all features of your group,
including messages, photos, attachments, etc. will be completely unavailable.
However, once your outage time concludes, your group and all of its features
should return and any messages that were posted to the group via email during
this downtime will be sent out. Please note that your group's outage should only
last around an hour.
In an effort to better communicate to all of you, a
blast message will be posted to all groups starting today and continuing on
through April 13th, 2009, linking to this message on the blog. This blast
message is visible on all groups to all members and moderators.
Thank you
for your patience—during the outage, the blog (http://www.ygroupsb log.com) will
remain up (and comments will remain open) and we will update you all as
information becomes available.

They never used any of these “ape

Interesting they departed so much from the
Ape

Yeah, exactly. It couldn't have been much more expensive than what they ended up doing, and it would have made it a much more original film. But it looks like it was never an option,
even at the planning stage.

Yes I have seen them. (My Flickr name is Bijoux!) Anyway, they look like Sideshow apes that were shrunk down to Mego scale, neck posts added and then a mold was taken and these are the
casts. People can shrink vinyl heads in acetone, maybe in a 10-minute bath...longer sometimes. And then you take the head out (which is now completely stripped of any paint)...and let it shrink to the appropriate
size. I have not done any shrinking before, but that's one way you can shrink vinyl into Mego scale. His Cornelius came out well.

I guess they'll have to find "more of a Star

Abrams just signed a new deal with Paramount (March '09) that gives them first look through 2013. He can work with someone else but only if Paramount passes.
If he wanted to do POTA I think he would've pursued that before getting tied up with Paramount. Paramount gave him his big break, letting him go from a TV guy to directing a big "Mission: Impossible"
movie his first time out. "Star Trek" is only his second movie. That's quite a leap. I think he only directed a couple episodes of "Alias" before that. And Fox has a bad reputation dealing with
creatives.

Abrams just signed a new deal with Paramount (March '09) that gives them
first look through 2013. He can work with someone else but only if Paramount
passes.
If he wanted to do POTA I think he would've pursued that before getting tied
up with Paramount. Paramount gave him his big break, letting him go from a
TV guy to directing a big "Mission: Impossible" movie his first time out.
"Star Trek" is only his second movie. That's quite a leap. I think he only
directed a couple episodes of "Alias" before that. And Fox has a bad
reputation dealing with creatives.

He is doing other things though - for example he's still discussing the Dark
Tower with Stephen King (maybe that's with Paramount too?).

J. J. can't. He's signed with Paramount and he has to oversee "Star Trek"
for the next 10 years.
I guess they'll have to find "more of a Star Trek fan than a POTA fan" to
direct POTA.

Hey Al
Loved the extras!
JJ Abrahams is my hope to pick up the next POTA movie.
He's been quoted to say "I was more a POTA fan than a Star Trek fan" so it
would be appropriate!
T4 looks awesome too.

And I'm happy with my current Cornelius, which is an enlarged Medicom sculpt
for the head that I repainted. Not sure if you've seen him before.

.htmlThere's usually more than one.
Often there's a few veggies that ain't potatoes too, that rot a lot quicker
than the potatoes.
They tend to quickly send the rot to the other potatoes nearest them in the
sack.
