A fun fact about Rise of the Planet of the Apes and why it works so well: It was originally not supposed to be a franchise movie. It was just meant to be an unrelated standalone story about the perils of genetic engineering and keeping exotic animals as pets, but after the first draft of the script was finished, the writer realized “Hey wait, this could actually work as a prequel for Planet of the Apes” and then pitched that idea to Fox.

[@halpreme009]

​@wingedfish1175 seriously it's a point no one's talking bout they (whites in america) thought black people as literal animals or subhuman and at were "servants"(slaves) and at times were either graped or had some sort of procreational relationship. It's quite literally the same relationship for humans and apes in this movie.

[@TheHelper-l9m]

In real life. It was strange but some whites figured their slaves were better off in their servitude then on their own and starving. ( Some parents in modern society try to enslave their grown children the same way. ) Another thing. Some slaves in America were slaves in name and ultimately only and actually did many things and having nice homes nearly all their own. Moses Dallas was one such person. He was a black Confederate Navy ship pilot. He was just a nominal, ultimate slave. He was leading a pretty luxurious life actually. Google him and learn.

Technically, the twist in the finale does fit with the sci-fi time portal as presented in the movie. The later you go through the portal on your own side, the earlier you come out on the other side. In the beginning of the film, first the one chimp goes through, then Marky Mark, then the main ship. On the other side, first comes the main ship, then Marky Mark, then the one chimp. So when Marky Mark goes through, and then later Thade goes through (after somehow escaping), on our side it would be Thade who comes through first and then Marky Mark.

Thank you for acknowledging the issue of KZbinrs doing “reviews” which consist mostly of plot summary!! It’s something that has always bugged me. Another great vid btw.

Man, the original Planet of the Apes is one of my very favorite series. This new series is absolutely phenomenal, the book is also really good, and the comics are just unhinged madness. I highly recommend every aspect of the Planet of the Apes to everyone here.

[@deadpan2866]

i always saw the original films apes as evolved versions of apes, thats why they look more human, not because they are evolving to be more human, but because they just evolved to be more upright and talk better

[@Ergeniz]

I mean, wouldn't they be evolving to be more human though? Humans are evolved from other apes, and themselves ARE apes.

[@steveiguana6887]

Wrong! Ape together strong! Why evolve to weak human? Glove invented to spare ape from human disease

0:38 "And a twist ending that has been referenced so many times." One of my favourite anime of all time, Pani Poni Dash, STARTS with referencing the Planet Of The Apes ending twist. I was so expecting it'd show up here. XD

[@rigatonipasta]

I don’t know what the twist is

[@Jabber416]

​@rigatonipasta Watching the movie it seems like it's taking place on some sci-ci alien planet but the twist is that it's actually Earth and the apes just took over somehow.

[@freezasama5802]

ape lincoln is the best twist of Burton's movie

[@GDKF0238]

Ok so I’ve come across the book twist. “The implication is that the human-ape transition is a universal norm, that across the galaxy humans have arisen, flourished, and then declined. So, while Ulysse was on the Planet of the Apes, the Earth followed the same trajectory that other planets had. (The characters in the frame narrative are in a three-sun system, iirc, so that’s a third planet where the same thing has happened).” Pretty sure the movie one is that the whole fucking time they were just on earth. Which if that’s the case, it’s lame as shit (in my opinion. Then again, I do love the original writing of the invisible man so who am I to say what’s lame?) and I genuinely can’t believe people see it as a great twist to this day

[@slyseal2091]

@@GDKF0238 The movie one is the only one that makes sense though. The other ones work on below average time travel consistency and the assumption that aliens look like us beyond the scope of tool-usage. The only contrivancy in 1968 was that the statue of liberty still existed and was in travel range.

[@michaelboyes5849]

In the novel the astronaut doesn't arrive back on Earth in the modern day, he arrives thousands of years in the future thanks to travelling at close to the speed of light. Upon arrival, he finds that the humans of Earth got lazy and devolved after teaching apes to use technology to serve us, same as what had happened on the planet that he had visited. It wasn't a nonsensical twist.

[@WhiteRhinoPSO]

I'm surprised that he missed this little bit of Planet of the Apes trivia: The only ape in their entire society who secretly owned a gun was General Thade's father, Zaius, who was played by an uncredited Charlton Heston. Not only was Heston the star of the 1968 version of the film, but while he was the president of the National Rifle Association, he famously said that the government could only take his gun when they "pry it from my cold, dead hands." Shortly after giving Thade the pistol, Zaius dies.

[@GamerGod353]

y'know it's really fucking funny when i was like "man Pointless hub should touch on planet of the apes movie series cause they are right up his alley" like a few days ago and thought about contacting you on covering these videos and to my wonderful surprise I see this drop today. Thank you for psychically linking our brains together and bringing this to life. Ape's together strong!

[@toeray5864]

This movie embodies the term "bad taste but great execution." The costumes, sets, and prosthetics are legitimately excellent. The story and script are bizarre. If you had to have a twist ending make it so Marky Mark returns to an Earth embroiled in a war between apes and humans. Not Another Planet of the Apes. The saddest part of this movie is that Tim Roth turned down Snape in the HP flicks to be Thade.

[@aw3299]

​@@purplehaze2358 You hadn't been living under a rock, it's just so much entertainment and technology revolutions was going on from the mid 90s to late 2000s that you can really kinda break gen z itself up into three different generations. Like I was born in 1997, but the difference in what I grew up with compared to what my brother and sister (born in 2002 and 2005) grew up with is honestly kinda shocking to me. I myself had missed alot of things that even mid to younger millenials experienced, so don't feel bad about not knowing this movie. Compared to the Caesar trilogy, it's probably good that you dodged this.

The one time I seen this movie was when it was brand new so I was like 8 or 9 at the time, and it was only the last 10-20 minutes of the movie. That ending with Aperaham Lincoln scared the shit out of me, but from it I tried to piece together what the rest of the movie was about. I had assumed what happened was that a man had time traveled thousands of years in the past to the caveman era, right in the middle of this war between humans and smart apes, and whomever would be the victor would be the one who took over the planet, and the man ended up helping the wrong side win just trying to save himself.
