Lounge of the Planet of the Apes

[KRYPTON INC.]

When I watch the original film, should I watch the other following?

Honestly... I wouldn't put it as a must see bunch of films on your list. While the first sequel BENEATH THE PLANET OF THE APES has some interesting stuff in it (Mutant Atom Bomb worshipers. No joke.) It's a bit of a retread and a step down. James Fransiscos is no Heston. And as the series progressed the budgets obviously got less and less. I also feel that if you didn't grow up with the COLD WAR as a backdrop to your life, the fear of nuclear war which pervades the films won't be picked up on or in the forefront of your mind and that's kind of part of the spookiness those films had. For me, anyway. But the first one was written by Rod Serling of the TWILIGHT ZONE, and it's damned good 1960's style speculative fiction.

Krypton Inc is right.

 

[charl_huntress]

look at you two acting all cool like "haha whatever, look at this nerd. i'm going to be cool and reply with something snappy" but in reality ya'll are like "omg maybe? i mean..i never thought about it, but...oh my god. am i in love?"

Seriously....who are you?

 

[Aesop Rocks]

I'm your dad.

 

[JJJ's Ulcer]

That's Aesop Rocks. He craves attention and tries to be funny.


And usually fails.

 

[charl_huntress]

Their arguing vaguely reminds me of the arguing between Han and Leia in The Empire Strikes Back.

Go back to your corner.

 

[Fallen Angel]

Krypton Inc is right.

Old Man Kriptin is many things "right" isn't one of those.

[Ultron-5]

At least Aesop's funnier than Jar Jar.

 

[jonathancrane]

That's not saying much.

 

[Fallen Angel]

I think this can be turned into a hit show. Who is Aesop Rocks?

 

[Hal_Jordan]

♪Who Are You♪

Who Who, Who Who...

 

[JJJ's Ulcer]

Haha you're funny, newbie!


No.

 

[charl_huntress]

I'm your dad.

You can't be....You're too short.

 

[Aesop Rocks]

You can't be....You're too short.

I'm your REAL dad.

 

[KRYPTON INC.]

Krypton Inc is right.

It's a fluke. It was bound to happen at least one time.

I'm going to put everyone who joined the Hype in 2014 on ignore. Nothing worthwhile ever comes out of them.

So i've made the cut? Nice one Triple J.

 

[Feenix]

I don't even understand what Aesop is saying.


Are you...drunk? Been hitting the sauce a little too hard tonight?

 

[Aesop Rocks]

I'm a recovering alcoholic so that's actually incredibly offensive to me. I'm reporting you.

 

[Ultron-5]

You'll end up putting everyone on ignore except Charl

You know it.

 

[JJJ's Ulcer]

I would have said 2013 as well, but Pinchy is too awesome. So thank her for saving you.

 

[E-Man]

I told you, CeCil. I told you. Look at what happens when you don't do your duty!

 

[JJJ's Ulcer]

Okay, that was pretty good. You can live.
