i've seen ALL of the Planet of the Apes. Thank you! stay safe and awesome everyone! xo
My favorite detail of kingdom is when they go into the vault and find that human doll that talks like the older movie. It’s a very small detail most people miss.

When I saw them riding on the beach, my eye caught an oddly shaped island in the background, which looked like the Torch from the Statue of Liberty.
Great retrospect! I'm 62 and grew up with the originals being played on TV as special annual marathons. We made plans for a night of snacks and Heston (a favorite of ours). Happy memories in our orange shag carpet, wood paneled & bean bag chairs basement.

Yeah, my wife doesn't understand why I love this so much. I was like when I was a kid. It came on all day on TV s on Christmas and it was hosted by a Doctor Zaius type monkey.... When you're like 8 9 10 and haven't seen any of these movies and they're on every Christmas all day for the Christmas with the Apes marathon, you're gonna grow up loving them.
This was the best breakdown of not only the Apes fictional timeline but the franchise in general. I especially love some of the insane multimedia spinoff 😂

"It's all about leather-clad apes with guns riding horses." My first thought was "that's not what Doctor Who's about" because I realised what the whole paragraph was.

Mark Lenard played a Romulan commander in TOS "Balance of Terror", a Vulcan, Spock's father, Sarek (TOS and TNG), and a Klingon commander attacking V'Ger in the beginning of ST: TMP
Easily among the best videos you’ve ever made. Great work.
The first appearance of the apes on horses in their garb with guns and that strident music is one of the best striking scenes I've seen.
The diving crash of the Icarus sounds more like a pitched-up version of the "fusion core" of the Jupiter 2 from Lost in Space, than the Batmobile engine.
I love every Ape I see…from Chimpan-A to Chimpan-Z…
Fun fact: The MPAA was going to ding the movie up a rating because of the 'God Damned' swearing, but they were talked out of it by explaining that no that wasn't Taylor swwearing. he is literally invoking God to torch the place.
I had some of the Mego action figures in the 70s. But by the time I finally got Lizard and was ready for him to take of Spiderman, I'd broken my Spiderman. So poor Cornelius got his head pulled off and replaced with Peter Parker's head and outfit. Cornelius died so Peter Parker could take on Curt Connors.
The series is so good but I’d honestly have to say that the newer ones are definitely better then the others

There was also the allegation of Kevin Smith that Burton ripped off the POTA ending from him.
I like how you say the same voice actor who did the cartoon Urko (Henry Cordin) also played the voice of Fred Flintstone BUT then you play a clip of Fred being voiced by the ORIGINAL actor to play him, Alan Reed.
I was just literally watching all of these at work on Sunday and now you guys make a recap video oh man I love you guys Ryan and Doug 😂❤

I kinda feel that the trilogy makes up for the Tim Burton film. We may not have got these otherwise. I remember the social media marketing which was cutting edge at the time. I was disappointed but I loved Tim Roths performance, I thought the costume with CGI has stood the test of time. Helen BC not so much

I think it was for the best that there was never a follow-up. I'm sure that Burton had some idea of what to do but it would likely have been too convoluted and confusing and just would have made it worse than it already was.
Nicely done screencrush team! Thank you for this!
Dude absolutely greatness. Love this brake down of all of those older and newer movies and shows and music wtf lol.
IT’S A MAD HOUSE A MAD HOUSE!!!!! The best line.
Roddy McDowall was the Planet of the Apes, in movies and in the T.V. show. Haven't seen the new ones yet, but I did see Tim Burton's ape movie. BTW your run down of the movies was excellent and your dog's cute, so you have one more subscriber.
Theres a theory that these latest films are actually the beginning of the entire saga. In a couple thousand years, Heston will crash land, the iccurus will be repaired and go back in time, and the virus will be introduced much earlier and create a new timeline. And considering the ending of Kingdom, theres still room for the nuclear bomb part of the story to occur.
Really interesting video you guys put together. Planet of the Apes (the entire world and lore) is so much deeper than I ever realised!
I really appreciate this. I have no time to watch them all but was always curious about the story. So thank you for this!!
6:08 honorable mention: "Kingdom of the Spiders".
If it's taken 36 years for a Beetlejuice follow up then there's hope foe Tim sequel. But I always thought where Mark crash landed, he had severe concussion and that was a dream. So inconclusive end
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS
Beneath was so grim. Left a mark.
Outstanding video, guys. A+++
"... a talking animal its a grat gimmick" hahahaha nice
I always liked the Mark Wahlberg version.
Yoooo Ryan !!! Long time listener first time caller. More long form content pleaseeeeeee
One of my favorite movies because of the great acting script and ending. The later movies I find also very good. Just saw Kingdom. I liked it. Each one has great FX . So with a good storyline and production who knows when it could end.
Great job everyone. The Apes movies always creeped me out as a kid in the 80s as wrapping my head around time travel, alternate timelines, and the apocalypse was scary. Plus the makeup creeped me out!
One of my favourite film series almost entirely based on the first film and Escape from. Amazing films
Great vid now im gonna start watching them again tonight starting with the first 2🤟
There were two events that were pivotal in me becoming a sci-fi fan: In 1973, at 8 or 9 years old, I discovered Star Trek reruns on Saturday afternoons. About the same time, I saw Planet of the Apes on TV for the first time. By the time Star Wars rolled around when I was 12, it was my genre of choice.
Thank you for this break down. I love all the old ones. I do like the new ones as well. I get them remaking some of them to catch up with the times and to add in what they wanted in old ones that may not have been in the budget or they had a better or different idea after all these years. If you have a franchise like this you kinda have to look at the old to be able to understand the new or at least respect it. Kinda like the new star track to the new star wars and so on. Also I cant help but think you little dog looks like an Ewok an is adorable. I have 2 dogs Kylo Ren and Ben Solo they are my service dogs. :)
to me the way eddie murphy described the go ape for a day how excited he looked reminded me of midnight movie showings or gamestop midnight luanches.
Respect I like how you did this and the video was good and informational
They also had some good parody scenes in “Jay and Silent Bob Strikes Back”
The comic books are amazing as well!
Gary Goldman's Dreyfus was the antagonist in Dawn but he wasn't a villain, and technically speaking Colonel McCullough wasn't wrong despite his brutality and descent into madness
These are one of those videos I wish would never end
23:49 Live stage shows are also a tradition for Japanese superhero franchises like Kamen Rider and Super Sentai. To THIS DAY, they still host live stage events for the currently airing series.
23:02 - I still have that DVD box set. Sold the ape bust on eBay the same week I recieved it. I just wanted the DVD set.
Seen all the movies and the 70s television series however, the 1968 original stands head and shoulders above the rest. You were right; the first movie contains so many hidden messages that you could write a thesis about them.
A friend of mine saw the live planet of the apes on horseback thing when he was a child. Said it was as high quality as you would expect.

Tarzan on the planet of the apes is by far the best comic book in the story. All about hatred and fear leading to eventual destruction but love may stop it. Dr. Zaius as the Watcher role. Fantastic.
Probably my favourite vid you've done. I'm a big fan of POTA but obviously not as big as I thought!
Too be fair with Oldman in "Dawn", he wasn't really a "bad guy" per say . At least not how I saw things. Just a desperate dude, that lost his family. I actually liked Oldmans's more layered performance than Woody's, kinda one note "bad guy" role. Different characters for sure. Might just be me. Great video though! Seeing the new Apes tonight!

Yeah I'd say Dreyfus was more neutral if anything. He allowed Malcolm time to negotiate with Caesar and come to a peaceful resolution and he only fought back against the apes when Koba's army attacked the city. I imagine if he had survived Dawn then he most likely would have been opposed to the Colonel's actions and the Colonel would likely have him killed as he did Malcolm.
Yeah, I think that the half human boy would of been a bit distracting, it would of turned the film into an unintentional dark comedy with people yucking out when we find out if it was mum or dad that was an ape. 😂
All i remember from tim burtons planet of the apes is mark whalbergs breathing

The first movie was rated G (General Audiences) when it came out. However in the first few minutes of the movie there is a scene where the guys are swimming and it shows full frontal male nudity. Much different than what is considered a G rating today.
I mustn't tell a lie... I have only ever seen the second film. And for all my life up until tonight, I thought it was the first.
Great vid SC I been on a big PoA kick lately. This hit the spot
I love your videos. I do. Truly. I love this video. But, Ryan, Gary Oldman is terrific in "Dawn" and "Dawn" is the best of that trilogy. It is an amazing film from start to end just like "Batman Begins," - meaning that there is literally no filler and every scene is just right. Gary was not meant to be the big bad of that film like Woody was in "War." Gary was meant to be someone who doesn't understand the connection with the apes like Jason Clarke did, but that was because he wasn't conversing with Caesar all throughout the events of that film, and also because he already lost his family where Jason Clarke still had his son and another romantic connection with Keri Russell. I mean, when they get power back in the city and Gary's iPad comes to life, displaying images of the family he had lost from the virus, it is a heartbreaking scene. Hence, you were supposed to connect with this man and understand him and not see him as the warmonger and big baddy that Woody perfectly played in "War." And again, just IMO of course, "Dawn" is a perfect film. Well, okay, almost perfect. The only part of "Dawn" that I don't like is the character of Carver as he is just overly hateful and one of those bad written characters that is just there to move the story along, and never listens or connects with obvious reasoning. I would actually say, even though his character is poorly written, he is actually meant to be the "bad human character" of that film. Other than Carver, that film is amazing and is still the best of the bunch - including the newly introduced "Kingdom." I give my commentary here with all due respect as you and your videos are really terrific, and I thank you for them.
I’d love to watch The Twilight Zone mashup but couldn’t find it on KZread.
The Apes prequel trilogy is nearly perfect. Rise can drag a little for me but Dawn and War are epic and amazing. My only real grip is I think the titles of 1 and 2 should be swapped

Maybe someone said it but the rating for the original film was G in a time when there was no PG or PG-13. The next rating was M for mature…closer to like a borderline pg-13/R rating, perhaps. Then it was R and X. I remember my dad teaching me all about when he rented all five films for a weekend marathon when I was a kid.
