Check out this clip from Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes, and see it in theaters May 10. Get tickets now: www.fandango.com/PlanetoftheApes
Director Wes Ball breathes new life into the global, epic franchise set several generations in the future following Caesar’s reign. Apes are the dominant species living harmoniously with one another and humans have been reduced to living in the shadows. As a new tyrannical ape leader builds his empire, one young ape will undertake a harrowing journey that will cause him to question all that he has known about the past and to make choices that will define a future for apes and humans alike.
Starring Freya Allan, William H. Macy, Dichen Lachman, Kevin Durand, Owen Teague, Peter Macon, and Travis Jeffery.

The irony of this entire series is that what these animals have created, is literally a step back from what humanity already achieved....and yet we're supposed to cheer them on against humanity. Of course you can find real examples of this in the real world, such as with the third world, but the idea of just giving the world to the third world, for them to take over and destroy ourselves to allow it, is a foolish and false sense of altruism at best. We are better not because it was gifted upon us, but because we earned it through thousands of years of progress. Like in this movie, they did not earn it, they're simply being given it or merely taking it by force.
