I generally enjoy the Apes movies, hopefully this one is decent

Huh, I always wondered if they were going to do another Apes movie. I'm not sure how necessary it is, but eh why not.

As long as they continue to have strong ape characters and have the right balance with the human characters I'll be happy. One thing I always liked about the last three movies where the apes were actually the main characters.

In contrast with the Transformers movies where they kept on focusing on Shia Leboeuf's character(which was fine for the first movie but come on...).

 

[Unlimited Chequing]

I feel like the first three of the reboot were done so well that this can't possibly come close. The movie already feels a somewhat empty without Andy Serkis/Cesar.

 

[LeafalCrusader]

Loved the Andy Serkis films. Hopefully this will be a decent follow up.

Humans can't speak anymore, so it should be very ape focused.

I'll watch but yeah no Andy Serkis is gonna be a big loss.

 

[x Tame Impala]

What an underrated trilogy of movies. All of them were a great time in the theater and I wasn't expecting that whatsoever

Rewatched the first two and watched War for the first time last night to get ready for Kingdom.

Just an fyi Kingdom takes place 300 years after War.

Hm, then when starts the original story of Planet of Apes?

Hm, then when starts the original story of Planet of Apes?

Most of it takes place in 3978, or 2000 years into the future, so this new movie is about 1650 years before the original story. Still lots of time to milk with sequels.

I think eventually it will, in Rise there was a space mission that was briefly mentioned, wouldn't be surprised if one of movies in the trilogy involves their return.
