planet of the apes original

this movie is excellent...i watched it when i was a kid but coudnt remember much..not even the chilling ending....YOU BLEW IT...GODDAMN YOU..GODDAMN YOU ALL TO HELL!!!

great film.....and i like how the director has a pop at mankind..we deserve it

who likes it??

it was..........good then ok now

It was an alltime great for sure. I could watch this over and over, its a real pity that it spawned four appalling sequels, a horrible TV series, including animated, and worst of all the ridiculous remake by Tim Burton.

The orignal movie stands alone in its greatness.

Still is, kids. One of Sci Fi's greatest achievements.

I never said it wasn't, or didn't mean to anyway.

what happened with taylor and his friends....did they go through a time warp which sent them into the future....or does time just slow down when u are in space

I always felt that POTA was a parody to mock Evolution. Good film not the greatest sci-fi of all time.

I'm 26, for starters. Apparently you're just green to Sci Fi, which is O.K.

some people dont appreciate great films

well im 17 which is not a kid and because u appreciate something doesnt mean its the greatest thing in the genre

Lets all calm down shall we, everyone has their own tastes.

no !! i will not calm down at all
😄 just joking...i was calm to begin with
just sayin that not many people today appreciate old classics
they would rather watch crap films of today

Which is strange i'll admit, but to each his own. Those same people will think those who watch old movies are odd.

No longer a kid at 17. That's rich. Not once did I say POTA was the greatest movie in Sci Fi, I did however say it was one of the best, and most innovative.

"Don't get it twisted", as one of those rappers guys once said.

Man, this movies awesome. But stay clear of that botch Tim Butthole Burton made. It's like he took the original, pissed on it, set it on fire, and gave it to a retarded kid for a week, then released it to the public.

I was that kid 😐

the original was on here 4-5 weeks ago and jumped to the chance to see it again... it's obviously very old but I still think it's so good, with two very well known quotes:
"Get your paws of me, you dirty ape!" (when he says that I always think of the simpson episode where Troy McClure sings it)
"Damn them! Damn them all to hell!"

just love this film cause it's such a classic one ... the other four (?) were just horriblen though they did had a nice way of thinking in them 🙂
