Brand New Rise of the Planet of the Apes Trailer

Awesome, it's gonna be a great movie. This is the type of CGI that Green Lantern needs.

Going to be a great movie!

I guess man against chimps and monkeys is better than Zombies. At least our numbers won't go down while theirs double lol.

It looks totally awesome

That looks awesome!

Pissed off super apes invasion would be WAY scarier than a Zombie apocalypse.

...about as unrealistic as it can get. While the original film was a tad campy, nothing still beats that classic.


Here is the whole movie in one paragraph summary:

"Man tries to play god through experiments. Experiment works, but then backfires right in Man's face. Experiments try to take over the world unrealistically (cue shots of Man's national monuments being destroyed to make us "care" about said destruction in their arrogance - Man is the supposed bad guy somewhere in all this, and while we cheer for the Apes, Man gets kicked in the between the balls as thanks for their trouble), but in the end there will always be hope that Man will rise again in the far future as possible sequels deal with the aftermath, etc. And if we're not stupid enough, the sequels will most likely detail how Man will become the good guy as the roles will reverse and some Apes will join them fighting for equality for all species."

- THAT is the whole movie in a nutshell, an Apocalypse movie with Apes.

And somewhere down the line if sequels are confirmed, we'll see something like THIS again:

What's up with every movie rising? I am not usually one to bitch, but they should really change the name, it's too much of a mouthful.
How about Planet of Man? Planet of the Humans? Rise of the Apes?

And the CGI was done using an old Playstation 1 console. Amazing what you can do with old tech! :P

rise of the

planet of the


...apes

Does Grif always have to be SUCH a tool?

I was impressed by the special effects in the first short trailer but now, meh...

The apes just looks too 'cartoonish'.

I mean King Kong from Weta/Peter Jackson was a badass, great computer-generated character. He looked so big, so real, so "alive". It's worked because King Kong was an UNSEEN creature : a giant prehistoric gorilla, something you never saw of your life.


These baboons/chimps are supposed to be real animals living in zoos/laboratories/center or whatever but sorry they looks FAKE and far away from real living chimps!

I think Weta needs more time for the special effects on this movie.

@Arminies, they are classifying it as a Reboot with a whole "new storyline" and "History". The main plot, however, is so overdone to death with that there is only so much you can do with a franchise like this that it becomes repetitive no matter how much they try to change it.

@LOL, LMAO at your picture. A little disturbing though.

You can complain about the CGI, but it looks so much better than some of the crap that comes out today.

It's a total REBOOT with new characters and new ideas/stories.

I don't think we'll ever see talking/civilised/clothed apes like in the original movies.

Rise of the... seems to be more realistic.

Looks fan[frick]ingtastic. Planet of the Apes movies are among the best in Sci-Fi history. They have that great Roddenberry-esque human dilemma thing going on.

"Conquest" and "Battle For" are my favorite, so it'll be great to see a modern take on the "Conquest of the Planet of the Apes" themes.

CGI snobs don't understand the concept of suspension of disbelief apparently. It looks good enough for me.

looks good

@Intruder-

How do you know something like a nuclear holocaust doesn't happen in this movie?

Striker! Seems like wolverine was not his only project.

Okay I'm sold. FREEDOM FOR APES!!

caesar is one bad ass mother[frick]er

Looks okey!

"We call it... THE CURE!"

Great!
