Just speculation, but to me, this film suggests that the destruction of the world of man (seen in the original film) could have been a response to the ape uprising, rather than a war of man against man. The line "you know what they're capable of" towards the end of the film seemed to set that up.

Saw this last week while on vacation. The theater was packed on a Monday night, which is always nice to see. Very much enjoyed the movie, and as a big fan of the original series of films, I'm glad to see it redeemed after the disastrous film 10 years ago. That said, while I appreciated the...

I very much doubt the film will acknowledge any relation to the Burton film, which is pretty much universally reviled (the posts in this thread notwithstanding) as one of the most pointless...

The problem remains that a lot of people are on vacation in August - it's one of, if not the, biggest months for vacations, so it's not surprising that movie-going drops off some. Of all the summer movies released in August, I can think of perhaps two in the 20 years that were really very good.
