It reminds me of the original scene when the alien burst out of John Hurts chest I was thinking some form of deformity. But you're probably right.

BigSqwert Posted August 3, 2011 Share Posted August 3, 2011 The new Planet of the Apes film is getting some surprisingly good early reviews. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Milkman delivers Posted August 3, 2011 Share Posted August 3, 2011 Why do you say that it's surprising? I wasn't interested when I first heard about it, but the previews have really made it look appealing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wasn't interested when I first heard about it, but the previews have really made it look appealing. I don't know. Maybe it's the CGI or the fact that the last Burton film was so lame. Regarding the CGI; I hate CGI used for humans or animals. It just looks completely fake to me and the apes in the previews are no exception.

Milkman delivers Posted August 3, 2011 Share Posted August 3, 2011 They look hit or miss in the previews. Some look real and others very fake. I dislike CGI as well, but one thing I CAN say is that they're definitely getting there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The idea sounded cool, but it looks like monkeys goring cities. Meh. I'd rather have seen the process of how they got to that point versus everyone getting their faces ripped off.

You said, "With movie making today?" The last attempt was 10 years ago. The next one was 38 years ago. Plus it's getting good reviews. I see no reason to think that this won't be good, and that they can't cover both elements in the movie.

kjshoe04 Posted August 3, 2011 Share Posted August 3, 2011 (edited) I for one can't wait to see the Planet of the Apes movie. Looks awesome. That and Harry Potter were the only movies I looked forward to this summer. Edited August 3, 2011 by kjshoe04 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rowand44 Posted August 4, 2011 Share Posted August 4, 2011 I love the premise of the new Planet of the Apes movie, the only thing that has bugged me in the previews is how damn fake the apes look. Oh well, I can get around that, definitely want to see it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlaSoxxJim Posted August 4, 2011 Share Posted August 4, 2011 I am a lifelong fan of the Apes franchise, so I am certainly looking forward to the new one. I do wish Burton's turn at the franchise had produced a more memorable film, but such is life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

qwerty Posted August 4, 2011 Share Posted August 4, 2011 Awesome film. I had been waiting for this film for two plus years now. Not for everyone. Pushes the envelope in many regards.

I know it was pretty much your typical major studio production, but I really enjoyed the ending. Caught me off guard. And Bradley Cooper was good as usual.
