I can't draw like Neil, but I can sure admire the art. (Thanks Neil).

I can't take any credit for the artwork, it was done by Frank Langford for an old B&W advert for the Megos (well Palitoy actually) that appeared in comics in the UK in the mid 70's.
I just cropped it and coloured it.

I did it! My first YouTube upload. Enjoy!!

Hello!

It's been a while since I've made some updates to my site, but thanks
to the generosity of several Apes fans, some new additions have been
made!

- Rory contributed a larger version of his 1979 Video Flyer that he
posted to pota earlier this week

- James Christopher contributed some Apes artwork he created

- Don Reitsam sent photos of a plush Zaius toy in its original box,
as well as photos of the Canadian-exclusive Mego Horse and Wagon
and Catapult toy

- Michael Meyer sent photos of an unused Addar model prototype

Thanks to everyone for the contributions!

I WAS THERE!

I'm in San Fran for the week and was strolling through Chinatown
yesterday. A steep street section between Grant and Stockton was closed
off and they had this tram go up about half way for a shot and then come
back down. They did it over and over. I stood for about 20 minutes
watching them from the bottom. I asked what they were filming and one of
the crew said a movie called "Caesar" but as I believed that all of Rise
was going to be filmed in Vancouver, I did not think it was POTA Caesar.
I even took a few video clips with my camera of some shoots. (I will
upload to Youtube when I get back). After I left the scene and came back
hours later, they were still shooting.

PS: I should meet up with Jessica later this week and she'll get to see
the vids on my camera first.

Amazing...

I should also have pointed out that I did not see the actor/stuntperson

Let's just hope the movie doesn't suck eggs. Anything's better than Burton's crap.

Why? Are they supposed to be filming there too? I've tried to avoid
reading about the plot of the new movie as I would rather be surprised
when I see it for the first time. I guess that was one reason I did not
know it was set in SF.

Unfortunately I won't have time to make the trek to the bridge this
time. But I did make it down 2 years ago, and yes I walked the bridge
and then back.

 When the premise of "Rise of the Apes" is brought up, people sometimes compare it to the 1999 shark flick "Deep Blue Sea": CG sharks are manipulated to find a cure for Alzheimer's and they turn out super-intelligent and run amok (er, swim amok). It's a comparison that will probably continue. I haven't seen this movie but it might be worth a look now that it's on blu-ray.

I'm fairly indifferent about Lost, but I liked the Serling interview - thanks Jeff. They could've used a better cameraman though.

This does not surprise me.

 

POTA fans are notorious for being weird.

I don't think it is bullshit as most POTA 'fans' are indeed weirdos. All one has to do to confirm this is to check out posts from a lot of the idiots who hang around and post on these groups.

*** That's the stupid thing... Some will look at APES and be like "How can
anyone like that? Like apes are ever really going to talk, c'mon..." And yet
they have no problem with Kirk screwing green alien women, Luke and Leia
just about getting it on, or R2-D2 who is a mechanical work droid having a
"personality"/emotions, etc..."
