The remake made no sense, especially the end when he lands back in DC. They don't even try to explain itOriginally Posted by DMoney82
Yea I was lol it's been a while since I saw the OG and I figured they were still on Earth when he said he was home the whole time. I just wonder why on the remake their planet had two moons.Originally Posted by ThrowedInDaGame

Great movie. The defining scene was when Cesar snuffed the kid with the hose. How the filmmakers showed his rise to power was interesting too. A concious ape and the demise of a human race by his own creation is what makes this movie.

I really didnt catch the racial undertones.....
info?
Good movie. Maybe poster above is right about the racial undertones cause some dudes in the theater where being rude and making comments. I thought they were just trying to take away from the backwardness but they were your typical ghetto dudes. Movie was good cause they were quiet once it started rolling.
Im curious to know tho. I felt they did a good job with the racial stuff.and its hollywood

If anyone is curious as to win this movie takes place or missed it during the film...
Spoiler [+]
There was a news report going on in the background at the shelter (when Dodge asks Riley "Well where the hell did my cookies go?". They were saying on the news that it had been eight months since we sent astronauts to Mars...I'm assuming that this may be is 2045 or 2050. Not to far off from where we are now? Thoughts?
The ending was a nice touch, but a clear indication that the film is looking into building a bigger story.

I was blown away by this movie. Would've been epic if Buck would have talked and said "My name is BUCK" like dude in Kill Bill

I just saw it, unbelievable. I'm a big proponent of not jumping the gun and getting ahead of myself when I rate movies and do my reviews, but honestly, this is the best movie of the year thus far.

Movie was great one of the best I've seen in the last few years, I'm hoping they'll make a sequel that doesn't begin years later.
I don't really understand what was so racial about it, most likely you're reaching.

When Caesar was grown, they had him on a leash like LeVar Burton in Roots, had dogs barking at him like how the Police had dogs barking at Blacks in the South, of course the whole correlation between Blacks and monkeys, keeping them isolated in their own filth like on the slave ships and getting them ready to send them to a lab (like how they were auctioning them off), spraying the Apes with a water hose if they "acted" up.
Caesar reminded of a slave that stole books to educate himself, then he passed on the knowledge to other Apes. In the movie, the Apes weren't trying to hurt anybody. They wanted to be free and not be bothered by humans, but of course after treating the Apes like garbage they defended themselves and all of a sudden they were the problem.
If ya'll can't see the racial undertones in this movie, ya'll must know your history very well.
