The trailer looked AWFUL! I predict this film will BOMB..... HARD... I think it will be on a level with that 'the day the earth stood still' remake.

On a budget of $80m The Day the Earth Stood Still grossed more than $230m worldwide, which is a solid return, and certainly not a bomb. I didn't see it, though from what I heard about it it was terrible, but that doesn't mean it was a bomb.

“We may observe that the government in a civilized country is much more expensive than in a barbarous one; and when we say that one government is more expensive than another, it is the same as if we said that that one country is farther advanced in improvement than another. To say that the government is expensive and the people not oppressed is to say that the people are rich.”

ks like it's going to be an action packed man v monkey movie, so that will be fun,plus it looks like it's from the apes point of view,so probably no boring humans talking about their feelings.


That was Charlton Heston!


Oh really? I didn't see his name in the credits.
Oops my bad. Lol

Just checked IMDb,
He was uncredited.
Shame it should have had "and starring Charlton Heston as Zaius"

I just wanted to say that the title of this movie really is terrible.

The RISE of the PLANET of the APES is just too long.

It should either be..

If you fired, I reckon that 'cork' would just.. cease to exist. Anyway, that's only there for whilst it's not in combat to keep the barrel clean.. or something.

Even without an operational main weapon, I find it very hard to believe monkeys could take it down.

Huh, with the anti-gun laws over the Pond I would think a troop of smart Apes could take GB in a week. Texas...no WAY! (they have killer Dachshunds I hear)

Seriously, a single full grown Silverback could wreck some major havoc. Hell people, we find shambling zombie movies believable, this is totally doable.

I think for me it's one of those "I'll wait 'til it's £3 in the shops" before I see it, didn't think that much of the last remake, but love the originals. Speaking of which, generally I find remakes disappointing, Clash of the Titans being a case in point. On the other hand special effects and computer newfangledness have helped a lot of films better their originals - Spiderman, Batman and all the other Super hero stuff which was a bit pants first time round but now looks pretty good. However, many films are classics and should be left that way.

But this is a prequel...?

Which expands upon the original without having to make up a lot of new idiocy like sequels have to. (TF2-3 anyone?)

We only have to look at Star Wars to see what doing the prequels last does.
