Planet of the Apes

How can we be sure that the statue is of general thade?. Most of the apes in the movie looks similar except for their costumes and ornaments. Vimal
It says so in big letters on the stone plague behind the statue! ________________ David Wulff http://www.davidwulff.co.uk "My grandfather once told me that there are two kinds of people: those who work and those who take the credit.

Michael Martin wrote: Can someone explain how this was meant to actual work? I think your problem is that you are comparing the original film and book to this new film. The director directly tells you that it is not a literal and factual remake. He takes a lot of liberties with the original story. As far as I know the planet Marky Mark goes back to, with the apes on it in stone age form, is NOT Earth in the future. It is a totally different world or rather an alternate universe with a different timeline. In the book it was Earth in the future, in this latest movie it is not. So that clears up the whole problem of a "logical ending". However saying all that I thought the movie sucked and the ending was even more disapointing than the ending of The Neutronean Alchemist (a series of books by Hamilton.) In fact I felt physically ill by the director thinking that he could end a film like that and expect people to like it! Calling it a cliche would be an insult to cliches. bottom line? nobody should care much about the movie or whether it is logical. The only good bit is the credits at the end saying you can go home now and cry in frustration. regards, Paul Watson Bluegrass Cape Town, South Africa "The greatest thing you will ever learn is to love, and be loved in return" - Moulin Rouge Martin Marvinski wrote: Unfortunatly Deep Throat isn't my cup of tea Do you Sonork?

Just curious Nish, I thought you don't really watch movies in India (too busy with your computer ~15 hours/day). That's what you wrote recently, Am I wrong? It's good to read that you have seen the movie. I also hate the ending, I used to like the TV series. - God bless the World
Well :-) I do watch the odd movie or two Nish Sonork ID 100.9786 voidmain www.busterboy.org If you don't find me on CP, I'll be at Bob's HungOut
