00:00:01,560 --> 00:00:06,360
Hell ho, ladies and gentlemen,
Welcome to the Final Plan, the Apes

2
00:00:06,440 --> 00:00:11,679
Retrospective. I am the clown Prince
of Apes as always trust now I'm joined

3
00:00:11,679 --> 00:00:17,960
by I'm the Donkey kirklmb Patzer,
the Colonel taylor Field. Wow, there's

4
00:00:18,399 --> 00:00:23,440
the Colonel. Eh, that's who
you're going with? Why terrible man in

5
00:00:23,480 --> 00:00:29,280
thee alliance with his ideal. He's
iconic, iconic. There's gonna be shaving

6
00:00:29,320 --> 00:00:32,359
his head with a straight razor after
this. Two weeks from now, I'll

7
00:00:32,359 --> 00:00:35,840
be like, you remember who the
colonel is to the Colonel who I won't.

8
00:00:36,119 --> 00:00:39,759
I won't say everybody else is iconic
in this movie. But yes,

9
00:00:39,920 --> 00:00:44,399
this is the last retro unless we
ever do this as a full time job

10
00:00:44,439 --> 00:00:47,560
and someone wants to do the TV
show. Maybe one day we'll go around

11
00:00:47,600 --> 00:00:51,280
and get there. But for the
movies, this is it. Patreon Obviously,

12
00:00:51,320 --> 00:00:53,759
when you're listening to this is months
in event, so as always do

13
00:00:53,840 --> 00:00:56,560
that. You can get other retrospectives
like the Mad Max ones. We're about

14
00:00:56,600 --> 00:00:59,560
to start Alien. That will be
lots of fun and that will be our

15
00:00:59,600 --> 00:01:02,560
retro. I think for the year
there'll be some other one off like Beetlejuice

16
00:01:02,560 --> 00:01:03,760
and I guess we're gonna do Strangers, so there's some good things coming.

17
00:01:03,799 --> 00:01:07,400
But yeah, this year we're coming
to it ann but you can get all

18
00:01:07,400 --> 00:01:10,879
that stuff early if it's like,
hey, you're getting this Beetlejuice retro at

19
00:01:10,920 --> 00:01:11,519
this point. No, no,
you can't get it months early. Don't

20
00:01:11,560 --> 00:01:15,840
record yet, but we will be
along with an ad free RSS feed.

21
00:01:17,120 --> 00:01:22,159
Get multiple episodes that are exclusive depending
which tear you're on, Call Nafnin which

22
00:01:22,200 --> 00:01:25,680
is very fun. Geek firs Day
will be happening in August. It sometimes,

23
00:01:25,719 --> 00:01:29,079
so tune on the patron. There
are lots of good stuff there and

24
00:01:29,599 --> 00:01:32,879
interaction stuff you can do. So
yeah, just head down a lot for

25
00:01:32,920 --> 00:01:38,359
everything you need to know or plan
the apes. I'm gonna again leave kirkle

26
00:01:38,400 --> 00:01:42,560
Lass, but this time I'm gonna
start with mister Field. What was your

27
00:01:42,599 --> 00:01:45,200
experience watched this with? Well,
I guess we kind we kind of know

28
00:01:45,239 --> 00:01:52,480
this this one. We've heard molt
any new people jumping in just the complete

29
00:01:52,799 --> 00:01:56,680
same thing that you said. But
isn't there like you should tell a story

30
00:01:56,680 --> 00:02:00,319
of Is this the one that you
didn't end up for on the review for

31
00:02:00,760 --> 00:02:05,159
right? Nope, Briggs didn't end
up on this review. I ended up

32
00:02:05,159 --> 00:02:08,639
reviewing this with Dylan. What was
the review that Dylan and Briggs reviewed it?

33
00:02:08,680 --> 00:02:13,199
Without quiet place and no outside their
house watching Netflix waiting for them to

34
00:02:13,199 --> 00:02:15,960
tell me to come in, and
they're like, oh, we did the

35
00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:17,520
review, but you didn't want to
join for I'm like, what the fuck?

36
00:02:17,639 --> 00:02:21,080
So I went back and picked Madison
from Rock Climbing. I was like,

37
00:02:21,080 --> 00:02:23,879
this is a waste of time.
Okay, so so not this one,

38
00:02:23,919 --> 00:02:30,520
but okay there so yeah this.
I went and saw this a few

39
00:02:30,560 --> 00:02:34,759
days early with Briggs because we went
to the theater and they did a whole

40
00:02:35,039 --> 00:02:38,240
marathon. So it was the Mark
Alberg one. Nice, it was,

41
00:02:38,319 --> 00:02:49,240
yeah, the the other one.
Yeah, if they put the Mark Ohlberg

42
00:02:49,280 --> 00:02:52,159
one back in the theaters, anybody
would buy a ticket to go see Oh

43
00:02:52,199 --> 00:02:54,080
I get I for sure think that
people would. I know I would.

44
00:02:54,080 --> 00:02:58,039
I'd love to actually see it on
the big screen. I'd go like,

45
00:02:58,080 --> 00:03:00,719
there's a bunch right now, like
Alien and Spidery, but they're not playing

46
00:03:00,759 --> 00:03:04,199
here and I'm pissed about spider Man. I really am. I really want

47
00:03:04,240 --> 00:03:07,960
to take the girls the first Jeraimi
films. I'm fucking livid. Every day

48
00:03:07,080 --> 00:03:13,400
I'm throwing shit at Grand Tan and
sounded like a monkey myself. No Landmark

49
00:03:13,800 --> 00:03:19,919
and the boom, Yeah, second
time this week, just show the Spider

50
00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:23,759
Man movie, you know. But
yeah, this this film has so much

51
00:03:23,800 --> 00:03:28,319
going for it. And I remember
seeing it in theaters and just coming off

52
00:03:28,360 --> 00:03:30,520
of the two first films and getting
to this one, you're already emotionally unstable

53
00:03:30,560 --> 00:03:35,159
and you're just a fucking wreck,
like and this movie does not hold back.

54
00:03:35,240 --> 00:03:38,360
It's just the score is beautiful.
The moment I finished this movie,

55
00:03:38,400 --> 00:03:40,759
I went and I bought the I
Remember One on my iTunes store, and

56
00:03:40,800 --> 00:03:44,120
I bought the whole soundtrack, the
whole score, and I listened to it

57
00:03:44,199 --> 00:03:46,879
still to this day. Let's say
pretty consistently. There's a few tracks on

58
00:03:46,919 --> 00:03:52,000
there album and go to once a
month just to get it into my system

59
00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:54,800
because it's just it hits, It
really really hits. But is this is

60
00:03:54,879 --> 00:03:58,400
because you talk about this thing so
much? Was this the one that made

61
00:03:58,439 --> 00:04:01,800
you like a massive stan like I
know you like a lot of his work,

62
00:04:01,879 --> 00:04:03,439
was it? But was it this
one? Or is there a different

63
00:04:03,479 --> 00:04:06,039
one like Rattoo or something in particular
where you're like Okay, he's my guy.

64
00:04:06,159 --> 00:04:10,759
Now, you know, this one
for me, it was when I

65
00:04:10,800 --> 00:04:13,360
heard up, I'm like, Okay, Giacchino, he's one of the he's

66
00:04:13,360 --> 00:04:17,120
one of my guys. You know. Ah, this one definitely stood out,

67
00:04:17,160 --> 00:04:20,759
and I think that I say,
maybe that's when I maybe that's why

68
00:04:20,800 --> 00:04:23,959
I realized. But no, hang
on, hang on, I think there's

69
00:04:24,040 --> 00:04:32,279
something else sky high, ah,
because when did he do this one twenty

70
00:04:32,279 --> 00:04:35,720
seventeen? This was twenty seventeen.
This is twenty seventeen. And when did

71
00:04:35,720 --> 00:04:39,240
you do Star Trek Into Darkness?
How long ago was that? Was that?

72
00:04:39,279 --> 00:04:44,839
Twenty thirteen? That's before this,
I think, because like I think

73
00:04:45,759 --> 00:04:48,120
I might have I don't know how
to say it, because it's like this

74
00:04:48,199 --> 00:04:50,920
movie. I think you're right.
I seeing the name with the soundtrack probably

75
00:04:50,920 --> 00:04:54,639
started to make me realize, like, okay, like his name is affiliated

76
00:04:54,639 --> 00:04:57,759
with all these other tracks. And
now when I'm older in retrospect, when

77
00:04:57,759 --> 00:05:00,639
I look and see that he's had
his hand in like Jurassic po and Star

78
00:05:00,680 --> 00:05:03,560
Wars and Star Trek, yeah,
Disney Pixar movies, he's had his hand

79
00:05:03,600 --> 00:05:08,759
tapped on like a lot of major
ips that I really really like. So

80
00:05:10,120 --> 00:05:13,879
just he's fantastic. Yeah, this
score is just great. But the characters

81
00:05:13,959 --> 00:05:17,759
in this movie, some of them
are hauntingly just terrifying. But there's such

82
00:05:17,800 --> 00:05:21,439
a sweet undertone to this movie that
I really really like, and I think

83
00:05:21,480 --> 00:05:26,839
it ends on there is I think, so yeah, a sweet undertone that

84
00:05:26,839 --> 00:05:30,199
that ends on a high note as
sad, as bittersweet as it is,

85
00:05:30,240 --> 00:05:35,360
but it is sweet nonetheless, that's
a take. I think there's like sweet

86
00:05:35,439 --> 00:05:38,920
moments, but like, I don't
think this movie has a sweet undertone.

87
00:05:38,959 --> 00:05:43,240
Do I think this movie is fucking
fucking sweet. That kernel man ye such

88
00:05:43,240 --> 00:05:47,519
a nice guy. Some us understood. Uh. So My story with this

89
00:05:47,560 --> 00:05:50,600
one is I did see the theaters, but this is one where I was.

90
00:05:50,680 --> 00:05:57,000
This came out July, and I
remember it came out specifically July twelfth

91
00:05:57,040 --> 00:06:01,160
to thirteenth, because I bought tickets. War said Maine whatever. Because at

92
00:06:01,199 --> 00:06:03,240
that point I was a big fan, like I was still as a big

93
00:06:03,279 --> 00:06:06,079
fan of apes, but we had
never done apes on geek first and heard,

94
00:06:06,079 --> 00:06:11,040
oh, they're doing the trilogy,
you know, Matt Reeve's trilogy as

95
00:06:11,079 --> 00:06:12,639
the thing. Get to see a
couple of days. They's so great.

96
00:06:12,639 --> 00:06:15,920
I could not wait to go watch
these all again. Uh, but at

97
00:06:15,920 --> 00:06:19,600
this time, my wife, you
know, mother and my children was past

98
00:06:19,800 --> 00:06:23,639
the do day, like it was, it was already passed, so it's

99
00:06:23,680 --> 00:06:27,480
like it was already risk but it
had been a couple of days already,

100
00:06:27,759 --> 00:06:30,680
so I had these tickets, so
I was holding out and she went into

101
00:06:30,759 --> 00:06:35,959
labor a boat I think that very
same day. I think it was in

102
00:06:35,959 --> 00:06:42,600
the afternoon in the morning. And
then I also never remembered to refund my

103
00:06:42,639 --> 00:06:45,800
ticket, so I paid for this
whole experience, never got a refund or

104
00:06:45,839 --> 00:06:47,360
anything like that. But it's okay
because I got the child and it all

105
00:06:47,399 --> 00:06:49,600
worked out. But so that was
my experience, and then I didn't end

106
00:06:49,639 --> 00:06:54,800
up seeing it to like I think
a month later with Kyle And Yeah,

107
00:06:54,879 --> 00:06:59,199
this one's interesting because I feel like
lots of people have varying opinions on this.

108
00:06:59,279 --> 00:07:02,079
I think the biggest thing is I've
heard ballied against. It is not

109
00:07:02,120 --> 00:07:04,319
of the biggest one of us,
Like it's called war for of planet's but

110
00:07:04,319 --> 00:07:08,439
it's not really war film, which
I kind of understand. I think for

111
00:07:08,480 --> 00:07:12,759
me, I'm just much more on
a positive outline where I do have more

112
00:07:12,839 --> 00:07:16,480
issues with this one, but I
don't like there's nothing major. I don't

113
00:07:16,519 --> 00:07:19,040
have anything like, oh this really
takes me out. This is a big

114
00:07:19,079 --> 00:07:21,839
problem. This is a big step
down. I just feel that it's like

115
00:07:21,879 --> 00:07:26,360
a very different type of film.
I feel like this one is actually closer

116
00:07:26,399 --> 00:07:30,240
to The Batman than Dawn because I
feel like this has that similar slow pace.

117
00:07:30,399 --> 00:07:33,399
It's very kind of depressing at times. It's very not so much like

118
00:07:33,399 --> 00:07:36,399
the macabness of The Batman and like
the tone of like goth and not that,

119
00:07:36,480 --> 00:07:41,199
but just like the pace is a
very You're dealing with a character that's

120
00:07:41,279 --> 00:07:45,920
very hurt and you're working things through
with them. And to me, that's

121
00:07:45,959 --> 00:07:48,279
where like when I watch them,
I can't find any too much sweetness in

122
00:07:48,319 --> 00:07:53,240
there, you know, like in
the first act we suffer some really terrible

123
00:07:53,360 --> 00:07:57,279
deaths, like right away, you
know. And that's where again where I

124
00:07:57,279 --> 00:07:59,120
was like, oh man, this
guy can do Batman because like they pretty

125
00:07:59,160 --> 00:08:01,279
much just make season and he makes
the losses enough to go. But that's

126
00:08:01,279 --> 00:08:05,680
where for me, Yeah, it's
not necessarily it's about war, but this

127
00:08:05,759 --> 00:08:09,680
is a revenge movie. It is
still having to do with all the apes

128
00:08:09,720 --> 00:08:11,040
and our characters, and you have
the Kernel and the virus, like all

129
00:08:11,079 --> 00:08:16,240
those things that were from the past. But this is a fully character study

130
00:08:16,279 --> 00:08:22,439
about Caesar revenge film, like how
far should you go to payback someone?

131
00:08:22,560 --> 00:08:24,959
Right? What is the steps?
What is the line? Where is your

132
00:08:24,120 --> 00:08:28,600
you know, what can you sacrifice
that doesn't even belong to you that should

133
00:08:28,639 --> 00:08:30,879
be? And there's a lot of
morality stuff. I fel like this is

134
00:08:30,920 --> 00:08:33,679
the first time in the trilogy where
you could always question Caesar, but this

135
00:08:33,720 --> 00:08:37,559
is the first time he's making choices
where he's like, ah, I don't

136
00:08:37,600 --> 00:08:39,559
know in good ways where your question
like I'd like, this is too far,

137
00:08:39,720 --> 00:08:43,440
man, I think you gotta you
gotta stop. And that's some of

138
00:08:43,440 --> 00:08:46,039
the best places I love when they
put our characters. When you put characters

139
00:08:46,039 --> 00:08:48,919
that you really enjoy and they're making
decisions that you don't know are right,

140
00:08:50,440 --> 00:08:54,279
that's where that's where the money is
in. I think movies and TV shows

141
00:08:54,279 --> 00:08:56,320
and characters when it's like gray area
of man, I see the point of

142
00:08:56,360 --> 00:09:00,759
view that this could also go down
some bad stuff. So no, I

143
00:09:00,799 --> 00:09:03,480
love this movie. I still you
know, have Dawn above it. So

144
00:09:03,879 --> 00:09:05,759
for my many rankings, but this
is this ranks high. This is again

145
00:09:05,879 --> 00:09:09,879
just the film craftmanship, the acting, the directing, the writing, the

146
00:09:09,879 --> 00:09:13,960
score, everything, some great visual
some great moments, some surprising moments.

147
00:09:15,039 --> 00:09:18,600
So no, I still I'm a
big fan of this movie, more fan

148
00:09:18,639 --> 00:09:20,039
than I think others, because I
feel like lots of people look at three

149
00:09:20,080 --> 00:09:22,000
a's like, oh yeah, it's
not a big step down, but it's

150
00:09:22,039 --> 00:09:24,840
definitely like a step down from two. I don't look at it that way.

151
00:09:24,879 --> 00:09:28,960
I just look at like two is
a better movie. But this is

152
00:09:28,000 --> 00:09:33,720
still still great stuff from Reeves and
the crew. So current Pats are again

153
00:09:33,759 --> 00:09:35,799
this is your first time. As
you revealed in Dawn, you watch them

154
00:09:35,879 --> 00:09:39,759
back to back. So what were
your thoughts on this one? Closing out

155
00:09:39,799 --> 00:09:43,039
the trilogy and Caesar's story here,
I had, like the Kill Bill Volume

156
00:09:43,080 --> 00:09:46,879
one two affect this one one one
complete film. Yeah, I like,

157
00:09:48,120 --> 00:09:50,799
I don't want to be a downer
or anything, but this one was a

158
00:09:50,840 --> 00:09:56,399
noticeable step down actually for me earlier
at Dawn. Yeah, I still had

159
00:09:56,440 --> 00:10:01,759
a good time with this one.
I think it is still especially comparing it

160
00:10:01,759 --> 00:10:05,519
to some of the earlier Apes films, like not counting the very first one,

161
00:10:05,600 --> 00:10:09,759
but man, like what a step
up from fucking something like Beneath or

162
00:10:09,000 --> 00:10:13,480
or those types of movies, Like
it has some fantastic moments. It looks

163
00:10:13,720 --> 00:10:18,039
so beautiful. I was, I
was shouting out the like the jungle biomes

164
00:10:18,080 --> 00:10:20,080
of the last movie, the whole
winter scapes that we have in this one.

165
00:10:20,120 --> 00:10:24,679
It just it goes so well.
This movie. Also, I just

166
00:10:24,720 --> 00:10:28,320
remember had like some of the best
posters that they ever had, like just

167
00:10:28,320 --> 00:10:31,279
just having Caesar on the horse with
the gun on his back, with like

168
00:10:31,279 --> 00:10:33,600
the little girl. I just love
those visuals. It just especially like while

169
00:10:33,679 --> 00:10:37,080
when I was seeing those, I
hadn't seen Dawn or anything, so I'm

170
00:10:37,120 --> 00:10:39,519
like, I don't know what the
fuck's going on at this point in time

171
00:10:39,559 --> 00:10:45,399
and the chronological order of the events. But no, I think I also

172
00:10:45,519 --> 00:10:48,879
just had really high expectations for the
film because I just remember those trailers being

173
00:10:48,960 --> 00:10:52,759
so topped here, even though I
didn't really know everything that was going on

174
00:10:52,799 --> 00:10:54,960
the story wise, I thought the
marketing for this movie was just so top

175
00:10:56,080 --> 00:11:00,240
tier. Having Woody Harrelson as the
villain I was really really intrigued by,

176
00:11:00,519 --> 00:11:03,919
which I like, I was just
so disappointed by that villain. Like man,

177
00:11:03,000 --> 00:11:07,480
Woody Harrelson is Cone I don't want
to say downhill, but like just

178
00:11:07,559 --> 00:11:11,840
my recent viewing of his characters,
I'm just really not, like, what

179
00:11:11,879 --> 00:11:18,840
else is venom carnage? Like that's
one of the worst things directed by circus.

180
00:11:18,279 --> 00:11:22,600
You don't forget so like again,
like it's probably pretty we got together

181
00:11:22,759 --> 00:11:26,559
that he well, no, he
didn't hire never mind, I'm wrong.

182
00:11:26,639 --> 00:11:28,720
He didn't hire Woody Harrelson. That
was in the first movie. So I

183
00:11:28,720 --> 00:11:31,159
thought, because the connection of this, it's like, oh, I've worked

184
00:11:31,159 --> 00:11:35,120
with it, you know what he
I like, like, I'm directing Venom

185
00:11:35,159 --> 00:11:37,960
too. But no, that was
just like a happy accident. But and

186
00:11:37,559 --> 00:11:41,320
like I get like, it's it's
you know, two examples there, and

187
00:11:41,320 --> 00:11:43,519
I'm probably hyperbolyzing by saying that,
but it's just like recent memory. I

188
00:11:43,919 --> 00:11:48,399
think my favorite Harrelson roles are like
the earlier ones that I had seen of

189
00:11:48,480 --> 00:11:52,480
him. I guess Zombie Zombie Land
is a later one. Have you never

190
00:11:52,519 --> 00:11:56,559
crossed off True Detective on your life? I've never seen True Defective. I

191
00:11:56,600 --> 00:11:58,799
heard he's fantastic. You should put
that hire on the list, just to

192
00:11:58,879 --> 00:12:03,399
like rinse out the wood. What's
what he's so great? You know that

193
00:12:03,559 --> 00:12:07,919
is that stuff? I should do
that because I I I do like him,

194
00:12:07,919 --> 00:12:11,200
like I like again like in the
comedies and stuff like I think he's

195
00:12:11,240 --> 00:12:16,159
absolutely fantastic, but no, in
this movie, I think maybe the the

196
00:12:16,200 --> 00:12:20,840
coupling of a I had like just
finished Dawn, which was just like ten

197
00:12:20,879 --> 00:12:24,480
and a ten peak like okay,
this like if Dawn is there, like

198
00:12:24,559 --> 00:12:26,559
war has got to be just like
another step up. And it really wasn't

199
00:12:26,600 --> 00:12:31,440
for me. I I wasn't really
super fond of the villain, which being

200
00:12:31,480 --> 00:12:35,960
the Colonel. Also just like things, I don't know, can I say

201
00:12:35,960 --> 00:12:41,639
spoilers at this point? I seen
the movie you know, Come Come,

202
00:12:41,720 --> 00:12:46,360
you know it's the killing off of
blue Eyes, and and the mother was

203
00:12:46,440 --> 00:12:52,320
just so fast and especially just kind
of kind of the like blue Eyes is.

204
00:12:52,480 --> 00:12:54,240
He's not the main pillar of the
of Dawn, but like he is

205
00:12:54,279 --> 00:12:58,279
in the movie quite a bit,
And just coming from that movie, I'm

206
00:12:58,320 --> 00:13:00,559
like, man, what's gonna happen
now with blue Eyes? He's just gonna

207
00:13:00,600 --> 00:13:03,240
be in such a more important role. They kill him off so quickly.

208
00:13:03,279 --> 00:13:07,960
He goes out like fucking rouning the
accuser just like a complete bitch that he's

209
00:13:07,960 --> 00:13:13,080
supposed to against. It's like souped
up call duties. It's like and take

210
00:13:13,120 --> 00:13:16,399
out you know, a couple more
humans, but Hoody Harrelson's turn into fucking

211
00:13:16,600 --> 00:13:22,399
Jason Bourne. Here he's a cave
diving like he's set. Like they got

212
00:13:22,440 --> 00:13:26,279
some good ass shit these weapons.
You know, that's not like I'm excited

213
00:13:26,320 --> 00:13:30,639
to talk about this, because that's
not things I've like. I've heard these

214
00:13:30,679 --> 00:13:35,039
criticisms before, and I'm of two
minds where I don't really have an answer,

215
00:13:35,080 --> 00:13:35,960
and that's where I guess. I
still like the film overall, So

216
00:13:35,960 --> 00:13:39,679
I'm fine at the route they went
because they that run is, yeah,

217
00:13:39,679 --> 00:13:43,120
you killed off a character that you
built up in the last movie very I

218
00:13:43,159 --> 00:13:45,720
won't say nonchalantly, but it's like
off screen, you just find his dead

219
00:13:45,720 --> 00:13:48,120
body and you move on. And
they don't make the new son, Cornelius,

220
00:13:48,240 --> 00:13:52,080
like that much more of a character
because he's still a child, right,

221
00:13:52,120 --> 00:13:54,000
So you do lose a lot.
But then at the same time,

222
00:13:54,120 --> 00:13:58,080
for me, it's like, well, if you want to feel big loss,

223
00:13:58,639 --> 00:14:00,840
that is, you know, because
I feel like you can kill the

224
00:14:00,879 --> 00:14:03,519
wife, but in these movies,
I don't think the wife means as much.

225
00:14:03,600 --> 00:14:05,559
Right. I don't know if you
had to kill them both, but

226
00:14:05,879 --> 00:14:09,600
I feel like that's where if you
want to do the pitch of k he

227
00:14:09,840 --> 00:14:13,039
no matter what, feels like he
has to kill this guy. You got

228
00:14:13,039 --> 00:14:15,679
to take someone big from him.
So if he just kills like as bad

229
00:14:15,679 --> 00:14:18,480
as it sounds like Maurice or Luca, like I think he kind of he

230
00:14:18,480 --> 00:14:22,279
doesn't move on, but he can
like process that where his son and his

231
00:14:22,399 --> 00:14:24,320
daughter that's or his son of his
wife. I feel like that's where it's

232
00:14:24,320 --> 00:14:28,320
like, Okay, you understand,
like if you were put yourself in that

233
00:14:28,399 --> 00:14:31,120
perspective of you know, your wife
and son get killed and you can get

234
00:14:31,159 --> 00:14:33,159
the guy. It's gonna be tough, but you can get the guy,

235
00:14:33,519 --> 00:14:37,919
would you? And that's where I'm
up two minds where I completely get why

236
00:14:37,919 --> 00:14:39,360
you and other people go, oh
it is disappointing, But then I can

237
00:14:39,399 --> 00:14:43,039
see the other side of well,
how else would you make Caesar just so

238
00:14:43,399 --> 00:14:46,840
obsessed with getting the colonel right,
because if he just kills a couple other

239
00:14:46,879 --> 00:14:50,679
apes, it's fine, But the
wife and son, that's as it's not

240
00:14:50,799 --> 00:14:54,440
the decision to kill them off,
it's just the execution of it. Like

241
00:14:54,519 --> 00:14:58,080
Luca, Luca had a more meaningful
death than Blue Eyes here, and I

242
00:14:58,080 --> 00:15:01,519
think that's just gonna bizarre but you
know, it was a decision. We

243
00:15:01,799 --> 00:15:07,600
had to have some sort of cause
to get Sezer to go on this this

244
00:15:07,720 --> 00:15:11,159
rampage of revenge. So that's fair. And again this might be something.

245
00:15:11,360 --> 00:15:15,159
The more we talk about these specific
moments, I like them a little bit

246
00:15:15,159 --> 00:15:16,759
more that that's already happened, you
know, on the Dawn. On the

247
00:15:16,840 --> 00:15:22,320
Dawn retro, I had that happen
once or twice, so that could kill

248
00:15:22,399 --> 00:15:26,480
off And you know, I mentioned
Luca even just there's a certain part of

249
00:15:26,480 --> 00:15:28,240
this movie I just felt like we
were losing characters. I thought Rocket was

250
00:15:28,279 --> 00:15:31,840
gonna go out like really easily as
well, and I was worried. I

251
00:15:31,879 --> 00:15:37,080
was worried about that. I was
actually impressed that they managed to save him.

252
00:15:37,279 --> 00:15:39,519
I thought he was just gonna get
destroyed by the Red Donkey in that

253
00:15:39,519 --> 00:15:43,080
one moment and then that was just
gonna be a death there, and like

254
00:15:43,080 --> 00:15:45,919
like up until that point, it's
like, well, of course they're going

255
00:15:45,919 --> 00:15:48,120
to kill him off here. They
killed Blue Eyes off so easily. They

256
00:15:48,159 --> 00:15:50,000
just killed off Luca, Like it
just seems like we're trying to kill off

257
00:15:50,039 --> 00:15:54,960
members to just have our our little
our crew here just just go down in

258
00:15:56,080 --> 00:16:00,360
numbers to make it seem like like
the Fellowship of just losing people and and

259
00:16:00,519 --> 00:16:07,039
like to have some some significance on
on theirmaining members. But I don't know,

260
00:16:07,080 --> 00:16:11,559
it's it's just my initial reaction to
to losing those characters was just like,

261
00:16:11,639 --> 00:16:14,759
ah, that's not the best way
to do it in my mind,

262
00:16:15,080 --> 00:16:18,000
to war though, you know they're
all dying and stuff. I'm actually surprised,

263
00:16:18,039 --> 00:16:21,559
other than Maurice, that Rocket did
make it because I thought with especially

264
00:16:21,639 --> 00:16:22,960
now with Kingdom, we're jumping so
far in the future. I don't think

265
00:16:22,960 --> 00:16:27,039
we're gonna see Maurice, right.
I don't know if we're gonna see Cornelius

266
00:16:27,039 --> 00:16:32,120
because I don't think the main character
is flashbacks, right, I imagine.

267
00:16:32,120 --> 00:16:34,759
I don't think we're gonna like Cornelius. Could that even be an option because

268
00:16:34,759 --> 00:16:37,879
that's not the name character than this
one, right, Kingdom and someone else,

269
00:16:38,399 --> 00:16:41,720
unless it's a descendant, I mean
worth hundreds of years in the future,

270
00:16:41,799 --> 00:16:47,039
right. I thought it was confirmed. Okay, that's what I Yeah,

271
00:16:47,600 --> 00:16:49,480
I didn't know where it was.
So that's where it's interesting. I'm

272
00:16:49,519 --> 00:16:52,559
sure you'll get some descendants of them
and stuff. You got the rain Tangs

273
00:16:52,559 --> 00:16:56,240
telling the story, so I was
surprised, yeah, Rocket did make it,

274
00:16:56,240 --> 00:16:57,879
because I thought we were losing them
all and I hadn't seen this one

275
00:16:57,879 --> 00:17:00,879
in a while because, like I
said, because this one is like,

276
00:17:00,120 --> 00:17:03,680
it's very depressing. You open up
your movie the first fifteen to twenty minutes

277
00:17:03,720 --> 00:17:10,000
killing it's three years, three hundred
years, just three years or definitely three

278
00:17:10,039 --> 00:17:17,839
months, three months after Franco back
where Caesar I didn't die. Yeah,

279
00:17:18,279 --> 00:17:21,039
okay, seeah, we're definitely not
getting So yeah, I'm kind of surprised

280
00:17:21,079 --> 00:17:26,599
they all made it. But yeah, I was just gonna round off my

281
00:17:26,759 --> 00:17:30,319
initial there of like some of those
decisions I think just brought down my overall

282
00:17:30,400 --> 00:17:34,960
enjoyment. I still think that this
movie has some fantastic stakes at play,

283
00:17:36,000 --> 00:17:40,319
and again like, uh, some
complexity to the individual sides, Like we

284
00:17:40,359 --> 00:17:42,079
find out the Colonel and his faction, you know, they got they got

285
00:17:42,079 --> 00:17:45,440
bigger fish to fry than just these
chimps, which which is not something I

286
00:17:45,480 --> 00:17:49,079
was expecting to see at all.
And you know, this is where they

287
00:17:49,119 --> 00:17:55,200
introduced kind of the prolonged effects or
maybe the mutation of the Sindian flu of

288
00:17:55,599 --> 00:18:00,000
bringing the humans down to the ape
level, which initially I was like Okay,

289
00:18:00,480 --> 00:18:03,200
I guess so you gotta get there, right, we gotta get there.

290
00:18:03,279 --> 00:18:06,279
And and the more I stood on
it, I'm like, I actually

291
00:18:06,359 --> 00:18:08,960
kind of like that. I I
kind of like how this this disease it

292
00:18:10,119 --> 00:18:11,839
not only just wiped out a good
chunk of them, but it is also

293
00:18:11,920 --> 00:18:17,279
having this like reverse evolution effects sort
of like it just making them stupid,

294
00:18:17,319 --> 00:18:19,839
and so you either die or you
live, but then you get devolved for

295
00:18:21,319 --> 00:18:25,240
you know, living. Yeah,
it's it's it's almost like a weird zombie

296
00:18:25,720 --> 00:18:29,400
like, uh like evolution of the
humans here. And I did like that

297
00:18:29,480 --> 00:18:32,200
for the most part. So there
is a lot of aspects in this movie

298
00:18:32,200 --> 00:18:34,039
that I did like, but it's
just it's just really not as clean as

299
00:18:34,079 --> 00:18:37,720
what the last movie was. And
I think because i'd just seen it,

300
00:18:37,720 --> 00:18:41,839
it was just such a noticeable,
uh just such a noticeable drop off for

301
00:18:41,880 --> 00:18:44,960
me. But yeah, so I'm
excited to unpack it. I was gonna

302
00:18:45,039 --> 00:18:48,920
ask you before we get to Taylor's
thoughts, So, like the movie overall

303
00:18:48,960 --> 00:18:53,119
doesn't live up to Dawn, do
you still is it a satisfying conclusion of

304
00:18:53,200 --> 00:18:57,079
trilogy or even is that kind of
a little wavering for you as far as

305
00:18:57,079 --> 00:19:02,359
like these three films, the ending
of it all. I I, yeah,

306
00:19:02,559 --> 00:19:07,440
it's definitely satisfying by the end.
It's not like some weird cliff and

307
00:19:07,559 --> 00:19:10,960
watching. Yeah, yeah, I
don't think it's that by any means,

308
00:19:11,480 --> 00:19:14,839
because you know, if it was
that bad, like it potentially could have

309
00:19:14,880 --> 00:19:18,279
brought down some of the events of
Don Right, which is just such a

310
00:19:18,440 --> 00:19:22,519
solid movie because Don directly sets this
up. And if it is just such

311
00:19:22,519 --> 00:19:26,319
a disappointing finale, it's like,
when I rewatch these, maybe I'll just

312
00:19:26,359 --> 00:19:30,240
not watch that. So I'm glad
that wasn't the result. I think even

313
00:19:30,319 --> 00:19:34,720
just like the whole revenge stuff with
Caesar, it is like the main idea

314
00:19:34,720 --> 00:19:37,359
of what this movie is, like, like he's just totally shifted on his

315
00:19:37,400 --> 00:19:42,440
ideals because of an understandable moment,
right like when he loses his wife and

316
00:19:42,480 --> 00:19:47,400
his son after sparing the humans too. It's not even that they just killed

317
00:19:47,440 --> 00:19:48,400
them. He gave them a chance
to be like, I'm not going to

318
00:19:48,480 --> 00:19:52,559
kill these, Like he showed mercy
for them, and what was their response

319
00:19:52,759 --> 00:19:56,799
to kill his family. It's like
the alt like the ultimate one eighty of

320
00:19:56,880 --> 00:19:59,480
like you're saying, because there's a
chance that if they kill those soldiers,

321
00:19:59,480 --> 00:20:02,599
they don't go back and say all
like give them the deats and stuff.

322
00:20:02,599 --> 00:20:06,799
There's a chance if he kills those
humans at the beginning, his son and

323
00:20:06,880 --> 00:20:08,920
wife are still around, which has
to be a yeah, they wouldn't know

324
00:20:08,960 --> 00:20:12,480
where they are, right, Like
it would be a lot of uh and

325
00:20:12,480 --> 00:20:17,480
and like I like that in hindsight
of just having a lot of consequence on

326
00:20:17,480 --> 00:20:21,319
on Caesar directly, Like it might
not have been his hand that killed is

327
00:20:21,480 --> 00:20:26,559
his son and my wife, but
his actions indirectly totally uh resulted that.

328
00:20:26,680 --> 00:20:30,440
So I a few times, right
when he leaves them the camp and they

329
00:20:30,480 --> 00:20:33,279
get captured, like maybe they still
have got captured, but he feels like,

330
00:20:33,319 --> 00:20:34,519
oh, I could have led them
in a way that the people wouldn't

331
00:20:34,519 --> 00:20:37,599
be here, right. So it's
like multiple times you see that his actions

332
00:20:37,759 --> 00:20:42,160
have a reaction, good or bad, mostly bad unfortunately for Caesar. And

333
00:20:42,240 --> 00:20:45,720
I think I think just the fact
that we're jumping from like the fact that

334
00:20:45,799 --> 00:20:51,799
he was not this all knowing leader
but just the super wise individual that is

335
00:20:51,880 --> 00:20:56,640
like their one defining Yeah, and
like he's always staying true to his morals,

336
00:20:56,680 --> 00:20:59,799
where you know, he loses his
his loved ones and that just goes

337
00:20:59,839 --> 00:21:03,680
up window now and he's going like
full Coba. Initially, like I didn't

338
00:21:03,759 --> 00:21:07,799
like that, but the fact that
they bring in Koba and like like directly

339
00:21:07,079 --> 00:21:11,319
have Caesar realize that he's kind of
becoming this and he's having this internal struggle.

340
00:21:11,480 --> 00:21:15,720
He's realizing that he's not strong enough
to kind of put this revenge to

341
00:21:15,759 --> 00:21:18,759
the side and just focus on what's
important. Like, I do love those

342
00:21:18,799 --> 00:21:22,640
moments. So I am a little
bit conflicted because there's some decisions in here.

343
00:21:22,680 --> 00:21:25,599
It's like, I don't know,
this is kind of strange. But

344
00:21:25,640 --> 00:21:27,079
they also kind of cover it.
It's not like they're trying to hide the

345
00:21:27,119 --> 00:21:33,599
fact of like they're shifting his his
motivation and and what his goal is.

346
00:21:33,839 --> 00:21:37,599
They're actually talking about that. So
I do like that. I think I

347
00:21:37,680 --> 00:21:41,200
just I don't know, I need
more time to stew upon it. It's

348
00:21:41,240 --> 00:21:44,279
too fresh. And that's where you
know, like you're talking the wrong person.

349
00:21:44,359 --> 00:21:45,839
I'm somebody that believes in the death
penalty, so you know whatever,

350
00:21:45,880 --> 00:21:49,640
but that the lesson of life is
and what the morality tale is. Like

351
00:21:51,279 --> 00:21:53,079
Caesar, even at the end,
he has to get revenge. He goes

352
00:21:53,119 --> 00:21:56,759
to the colonel still decides not the
kilms, that's good. But on his

353
00:21:56,799 --> 00:21:59,519
way he gets shot. So again
you could argue, if he wouldn't have

354
00:21:59,599 --> 00:22:02,519
gone back there, try to thought
about getting revenge, he could still be

355
00:22:02,559 --> 00:22:04,119
living with his son the apes.
But that's where it's trying to show you,

356
00:22:04,160 --> 00:22:08,759
like, don't that might be what
your your emotions and your feelings are

357
00:22:08,759 --> 00:22:11,559
telling you like to get back of
the person, But it is sometimes you

358
00:22:11,640 --> 00:22:15,119
gotta take the high road. And
if you would have taken the high road,

359
00:22:15,240 --> 00:22:15,960
he would have left. But he
had like three or four times like

360
00:22:17,039 --> 00:22:18,799
we get out of here, he'll
be good, and you're like, no,

361
00:22:18,960 --> 00:22:22,359
I'm doing this. You know.
It's just like he he really was

362
00:22:22,359 --> 00:22:26,559
like possessed by the idea and it
kind of is fitting. Like I hate

363
00:22:26,559 --> 00:22:29,359
that he dies, like it's always
heartbreak. I hate that because it's such

364
00:22:29,359 --> 00:22:32,920
a journey, especially you literally see
this like eight from like baby Chimpanzee to

365
00:22:32,920 --> 00:22:33,720
the end. But it's like even
in the theater, I was like,

366
00:22:34,039 --> 00:22:37,440
I know he has to die of
a man, I don't want him die.

367
00:22:37,480 --> 00:22:38,200
In the second it's the same thing. I feel so bad for the

368
00:22:38,200 --> 00:22:41,680
fucking Cornelius man, just also his
family. In forty eight hours, just

369
00:22:41,720 --> 00:22:48,440
like incummeries. Yeahs and and what's
uh blue Lake or no not fast Lake?

370
00:22:48,880 --> 00:22:53,279
Fuck bad fuck bad epe Oh your
dad died but you got bad ape?

371
00:22:53,319 --> 00:22:56,279
No, yeah Lake. He was
like a surrogate, like sister in

372
00:22:56,359 --> 00:23:00,759
law and a way. But yeah, how'd you feel about all the the

373
00:23:00,799 --> 00:23:03,480
big deaths and Caesar's motivation for kicking
off this journey because it's not for the

374
00:23:03,480 --> 00:23:07,279
Apes, it's for himself, you
know. Yeah. I I was just

375
00:23:07,559 --> 00:23:11,319
I was really excited to see this
lineage of Caesar kind of continue on and

376
00:23:11,680 --> 00:23:22,160
fuck go Colba's back. Oh oh
no, no, she just stops crying

377
00:23:22,160 --> 00:23:30,920
instantly. Just but yeah, I
think that getting the lineage cut short here

378
00:23:30,960 --> 00:23:34,720
well of course, uh Cornelia is
still alive. I think that's fantastic and

379
00:23:34,759 --> 00:23:38,799
I hope that they play off of
that in the Kingdom. But seeing,

380
00:23:40,119 --> 00:23:42,119
yeah, just the stakes raised,
and I think that's what really sets the

381
00:23:42,160 --> 00:23:45,559
tone for me. And I mean
I never felt connected to the wife,

382
00:23:47,039 --> 00:23:49,319
and I definitely felt connected to Blue
Eyes, but that's why it really felt

383
00:23:49,519 --> 00:23:53,759
in awe and shock. And could
they have expanded upon that, yes,

384
00:23:53,880 --> 00:23:56,440
But to me, I feel like
we got the expansion of the deep dive

385
00:23:56,519 --> 00:23:59,960
with that character in the last one, and there are times when I thought

386
00:24:00,079 --> 00:24:03,759
the last one he was actually gonna
get killed in certain situations. So here

387
00:24:03,799 --> 00:24:07,720
we are now, and I feel
like his death it happened, and I

388
00:24:07,759 --> 00:24:11,599
as much as I hated it because
it was just so emotionally like holy shit

389
00:24:11,799 --> 00:24:14,880
as a moment, but I still
was able to kind of like accept it

390
00:24:14,920 --> 00:24:17,480
because I've gotten to know this character
and see everything. I know. The

391
00:24:17,519 --> 00:24:21,480
stakes are elevated here because as you
guys talked about, Caesar's going through a

392
00:24:21,519 --> 00:24:23,680
lot of turmoil. Now he's haunted
by these visions of Coba, which are

393
00:24:23,720 --> 00:24:29,400
just eerie as they loomed throughout And
yeah, so now I think it really

394
00:24:29,400 --> 00:24:32,880
puts an interesting light now on Caesar, and I like that in each film

395
00:24:32,960 --> 00:24:37,440
he's really overcoming all these different things
in his life and these different challenges.

396
00:24:37,839 --> 00:24:44,319
And it sucks because I wish that
the other apes could have could learn these

397
00:24:44,920 --> 00:24:48,480
these teachings, these lessons that he
is going through. And I feel like

398
00:24:48,519 --> 00:24:52,559
all of these things that he's going
through, it's very much accustomed to him

399
00:24:52,799 --> 00:24:56,519
as a as a character, and
he takes the weight, he takes the

400
00:24:56,559 --> 00:25:00,640
load of all of these problems and
everything so that as people can thrive and

401
00:25:00,680 --> 00:25:03,720
can continue on and exists, and
they get to this amazing new place.

402
00:25:03,799 --> 00:25:10,039
But the message of Caesar here,
even though he stood for so many good

403
00:25:10,119 --> 00:25:14,039
things and stood for his kind,
it will it's going to be warped and

404
00:25:14,079 --> 00:25:17,319
distorted in the future, I'm sure, and that'll be I'm hoping they expand

405
00:25:17,400 --> 00:25:19,359
upon that a little bit, because
it's just the way the way things go.

406
00:25:21,480 --> 00:25:26,480
So I think that I can't even
remember where I was going with all

407
00:25:26,559 --> 00:25:37,000
this the ape characters ship, What
am I doing here? What was the

408
00:25:37,039 --> 00:25:41,440
initial question just about the death and
answer? So you can take us somewhere

409
00:25:41,440 --> 00:25:45,279
else if you want to go now
you couldn't go anywhere, can go anywhere

410
00:25:45,279 --> 00:25:48,519
at all? Anywhere? Yeah,
I want to go to the colonel here

411
00:25:48,920 --> 00:25:53,319
at the end though, at the
end where just the final war breaks out,

412
00:25:53,400 --> 00:25:56,000
and I think this this scene,
it was quiet and it was really

413
00:25:56,039 --> 00:26:02,920
crazy when the last remnant of like
humans just storm this base and it's just

414
00:26:03,039 --> 00:26:07,279
all out chaos and destruction and war
and you got helicopters and tanks, like

415
00:26:07,359 --> 00:26:11,519
it's just nuts. And I wasn't
expecting this in this movie at all,

416
00:26:11,160 --> 00:26:15,000
or they caught me off guard to
see the human be human aspect here.

417
00:26:15,000 --> 00:26:22,200
But again I think I said this
in the Don retro where all of the

418
00:26:22,240 --> 00:26:26,960
negatives that humans encounter and this trilogy
or human cause, and in this one

419
00:26:26,960 --> 00:26:32,440
in particular, it wasn't really the
Simian flu that really sealed the deal here

420
00:26:32,480 --> 00:26:36,519
for them. They literally just like
mother Nature was like, you know what,

421
00:26:36,599 --> 00:26:38,400
fine, one more fuck you,
and they launched their bombs and the

422
00:26:38,400 --> 00:26:41,960
avalanche came down and just took them
out. And it's just it was all

423
00:26:41,079 --> 00:26:45,759
human cause they could have they could
have been that better, that better guy,

424
00:26:45,920 --> 00:26:48,319
like, you know what, let
these humans just die out here in

425
00:26:48,359 --> 00:26:52,599
this little nook in the middle of
nowhere, and we're just gonna buger off

426
00:26:52,640 --> 00:26:55,440
and go do our own thing and
leave it be. And we don't even

427
00:26:55,519 --> 00:26:59,119
know what it's like around the world
with other apes, and we assume that

428
00:26:59,160 --> 00:27:02,359
it's it's it's like this if you
go to Australia or you go to the

429
00:27:02,440 --> 00:27:06,720
UK. We assume that those apes
are also evolving based on this flu,

430
00:27:06,799 --> 00:27:11,640
because the flu moved from through the
airlines. But yeah, they didn't,

431
00:27:11,680 --> 00:27:14,240
they didn't take that. The humans
just went here, they fought, and

432
00:27:14,599 --> 00:27:17,359
I just thought this whole scene was
just absolutely bonkers and crazy. And the

433
00:27:17,400 --> 00:27:19,519
one thing I like in particular is
when you don't know how these humans are

434
00:27:19,519 --> 00:27:22,000
gonna react with the apes. And
so when the apes are sneaking out and

435
00:27:22,039 --> 00:27:26,359
they like before the avalanche hits,
the guys in their suits like turn in

436
00:27:26,440 --> 00:27:27,640
look at them, and you're wondering, like, what are they gonna do?

437
00:27:29,079 --> 00:27:32,079
And of course they they go to
sit, they start opening fire on

438
00:27:32,119 --> 00:27:34,960
them, which again, it's just
fucked. I thought they were gonna show

439
00:27:36,000 --> 00:27:38,240
those humans at the end being like, oh, these are not good humans.

440
00:27:38,240 --> 00:27:41,359
But the way they're doing that with
the apes of like, okay,

441
00:27:41,720 --> 00:27:44,200
some apes choose violence, them don't. So the fact that they had that

442
00:27:44,279 --> 00:27:47,240
soldier start to raise the gun that
I will say it was like a little

443
00:27:47,240 --> 00:27:49,440
disappointed, And I don't really know
what the message was there. It was

444
00:27:49,559 --> 00:27:52,680
his own judgment call. It wasn't
the order. He's like, you know

445
00:27:52,680 --> 00:27:55,920
what, fu Yeah. I thought
it was gonna be like, Okay,

446
00:27:55,960 --> 00:28:00,640
again, this is showing Caesar there
are some good humans out there. Even

447
00:28:00,640 --> 00:28:03,039
with this one. That guy he's
saved became a complete shit bag. You

448
00:28:03,039 --> 00:28:06,920
know, he didn'tend up saving Caesar. Donkey had to fucking blow him away

449
00:28:06,960 --> 00:28:11,079
with RBG Preacher. Yeah, so
I thought, oh, this is gonna

450
00:28:11,119 --> 00:28:14,039
be And so that is one little
thing i'd have where I don't know the

451
00:28:14,039 --> 00:28:15,960
point of the eight Like it's just
is it. So when we get to

452
00:28:17,039 --> 00:28:19,680
Kingdom, we don't feel bad about
the apes or the humans because in this

453
00:28:19,799 --> 00:28:23,519
movie, it's not like with Malcolm
everything. This movie we got no good

454
00:28:23,559 --> 00:28:26,799
humans really, you know, we
didn't get to see that. We saw

455
00:28:26,160 --> 00:28:29,799
the Colonel's team and then we saw
the next team who they killed the colonel.

456
00:28:29,880 --> 00:28:32,920
So maybe the girl she's the only
good human. Yeah, true,

457
00:28:32,920 --> 00:28:36,119
but like she's good, which that's
some problems to Like, is that guy

458
00:28:36,240 --> 00:28:41,440
her dad that they kill accidentally?
Which guy was it at the barns when

459
00:28:41,480 --> 00:28:45,519
he both goes a pole gun and
then Caesar suits him. Yea, I

460
00:28:45,559 --> 00:28:52,759
don't understand how Lucas dying and she's
bawn like a motherfucker. But then suppose

461
00:28:52,839 --> 00:28:56,799
this guy who is her father,
not a single tear shed for him.

462
00:28:56,839 --> 00:28:59,000
So that's the only thing I was
trying to think is maybe that's not her

463
00:28:59,039 --> 00:29:00,279
dad and just some guy that's on
her taking care of her, because like,

464
00:29:00,319 --> 00:29:03,720
hey, it's a little kid.
But so that's why I try head

465
00:29:03,759 --> 00:29:07,000
cannon. But if that is her
father, it makes no sense why she's

466
00:29:07,039 --> 00:29:10,799
like emotionless but these monkeys she's known
for less than a day. Man,

467
00:29:10,960 --> 00:29:14,079
the world is over. I know
it's a kid, but still like I

468
00:29:14,079 --> 00:29:15,839
feel like they made the kids smart
off that react the way. So I

469
00:29:15,839 --> 00:29:18,480
had a couple of little things with
that too. That's fair, you know,

470
00:29:18,559 --> 00:29:22,200
I think I would prefer to head
cannon that it wasn't actually her dad.

471
00:29:22,240 --> 00:29:26,119
Maybe me too, Like a soldier
who hold your hostage, she knows,

472
00:29:26,359 --> 00:29:29,480
I mean she was infected, right, Like, maybe the order is

473
00:29:29,480 --> 00:29:32,880
to just fucking chop her head off
or something. I don't know, because

474
00:29:32,920 --> 00:29:37,359
because because because he had he was
marked right by the uh the omega symbol

475
00:29:37,400 --> 00:29:42,720
whatever it was. So maybe it's
maybe that was the order to just because

476
00:29:42,759 --> 00:29:47,680
Colonel's Colonel's orders, right, was
to just execute those individuals that ever.

477
00:29:48,680 --> 00:29:51,599
Yeah, but Tay, you didn't
talk much about the actual current. You

478
00:29:51,599 --> 00:29:52,759
brought him up and you start talking
about the idea of it, but what

479
00:29:52,759 --> 00:29:56,039
about what he harrels? And you
know, yeah, I mean he just

480
00:29:56,640 --> 00:30:00,519
when the moment he appears and he
just fucking annihilates the family. It's just

481
00:30:00,559 --> 00:30:04,559
like I want tom a war Zone
team. Yeah, like god damn.

482
00:30:04,839 --> 00:30:07,880
Also, he's also not gonna revive
you though, this guy. You're down,

483
00:30:08,400 --> 00:30:11,799
You better self revived, bitch,
because I ain't getting you're like oh,

484
00:30:14,119 --> 00:30:17,960
but yeah, he just from the
things that he's talking to with Caesar

485
00:30:18,079 --> 00:30:21,880
and just like kind of like Probe
and Caesar and like, I don't know

486
00:30:21,920 --> 00:30:25,160
if he wants necessarily learning more about
him, but just kind of like instilling

487
00:30:25,440 --> 00:30:27,279
his way of life. And I
feel like there's just this kind of like

488
00:30:27,680 --> 00:30:32,759
interest in his enemy when he's talking
to Caesar and like, and again it's

489
00:30:32,839 --> 00:30:36,119
very it's shameful too because he's just
making them be slaves and whatnot. He

490
00:30:36,200 --> 00:30:38,200
wants them to be have their will
stripped out. And that's another huge factor

491
00:30:38,240 --> 00:30:45,599
too with this character, just overseering
overseeing them just being demotivated and if you

492
00:30:45,640 --> 00:30:48,000
resist or you help you anything like
that, it's just it's just the slaver

493
00:30:48,319 --> 00:30:52,039
kind of stuff. Just it's just
brutal, just brutal, And I think

494
00:30:52,079 --> 00:30:56,400
that's what makes you hate this this
guy even more. Like we've seen humans

495
00:30:56,440 --> 00:31:03,279
do very shitty things in this relogy
because they're you know, they're idiots or

496
00:31:03,440 --> 00:31:07,839
they're in for money but here you
have, at the first time we have

497
00:31:07,920 --> 00:31:11,880
a human that's thinking from it,
thinking at this scenario from a huge military

498
00:31:11,960 --> 00:31:18,599
standing and just a real piece of
shit, like just because he hates them,

499
00:31:18,640 --> 00:31:22,599
he really hates them. So I
think that's that's an interesting transition because

500
00:31:22,640 --> 00:31:26,759
it's not for any other motivation.
And it's tough, right, because that

501
00:31:26,839 --> 00:31:30,799
I think is the some of the
toughest villains is they did give him some

502
00:31:30,839 --> 00:31:37,680
motivation, but it's like a,
I don't not some they did. I

503
00:31:37,680 --> 00:31:41,039
guess it's a tough thing to talk
about even because like they do make him

504
00:31:41,039 --> 00:31:45,519
a bit more of a political villain, where at first they really pose amts.

505
00:31:45,599 --> 00:31:47,920
He's just the bad guy. He's
the bad guy that hates apes and

506
00:31:47,920 --> 00:31:49,000
he's a slave guy. And that's
always hard, right because we're gonna talk

507
00:31:49,039 --> 00:31:52,960
about mad Max Layer today for breaking
forth wall. But that's different. It's

508
00:31:52,960 --> 00:31:53,759
like, okay, more than Joe
just a bad guy, right, but

509
00:31:53,799 --> 00:31:57,319
they make him super cool with an
outfit and like a voice. It's like

510
00:31:57,319 --> 00:32:00,440
a The Vader thing where it's like, okay, he's bad, but he

511
00:32:00,480 --> 00:32:02,000
looks like a comic book bad guy, where this is like, okay,

512
00:32:02,000 --> 00:32:07,319
he's just bad and they reveal his
methods of he's not bad, he is

513
00:32:07,519 --> 00:32:12,599
for him trying to give the human
race another shot. And he feels that

514
00:32:12,640 --> 00:32:14,640
even if you have to axe you
peep, you have to. And I

515
00:32:14,640 --> 00:32:16,160
imagine there's probably people in real life
that do feel that way, right,

516
00:32:16,319 --> 00:32:20,079
I don't know how bad COVID got, but I'm sure there's people that maybe

517
00:32:20,119 --> 00:32:22,759
would have made that call where that's
not myself. Myself, I'm not gonna

518
00:32:22,759 --> 00:32:25,559
be, you know, slaughtering my
family to like, oh hope this gets

519
00:32:25,559 --> 00:32:29,799
better, and it it was really
for nothing because they're all getting sick anyway.

520
00:32:29,880 --> 00:32:30,799
So like he kind of ends up
being an idiot because he thought this

521
00:32:30,799 --> 00:32:35,400
would help and it did. Like
they're like they're just all getting infected.

522
00:32:35,480 --> 00:32:38,880
So it feels like they're going for
a character that's a little misinformed and he's

523
00:32:38,920 --> 00:32:44,039
making these bold choices when really it
just you gotta play it out a little

524
00:32:44,039 --> 00:32:47,200
bit, or it should be you
investing in your people. So I I

525
00:32:47,279 --> 00:32:50,839
like Woody in the role. I
think he's what he always does a great

526
00:32:50,920 --> 00:32:54,759
job just being that smarmy just like
just to fucking prick, like when he's

527
00:32:54,799 --> 00:32:58,640
just looking down at Caesar when Caesar's
just like tied up and then thrown the

528
00:32:58,640 --> 00:33:00,480
water. Just that look, even
onto the glasses, you can just feel

529
00:33:00,480 --> 00:33:05,680
like man Woody Harrelson. It's just
he's a vile motherfucker. And it's almost

530
00:33:05,720 --> 00:33:08,079
sometimes the same thing of like until
they talked about the something, it's like

531
00:33:08,119 --> 00:33:12,200
Izzy doing this as an excuse to
be violent, of like, oh yeah,

532
00:33:12,200 --> 00:33:15,279
I'm trying to help people. But
he's so off kilter you never know.

533
00:33:15,319 --> 00:33:16,839
But then you get that moment at
the end with him and Caesar where

534
00:33:19,079 --> 00:33:22,240
they say, like, oh,
you're gonna like Caesar's talking about I showed

535
00:33:22,279 --> 00:33:23,799
your men mercy and you know,
oh, well, you're not gonna show

536
00:33:23,799 --> 00:33:27,559
me mercy even though I killed your
you know, your son, your wife,

537
00:33:27,559 --> 00:33:30,640
Like what you're gonna do to me? And Caesar does do that.

538
00:33:30,720 --> 00:33:34,559
He's the bigger man, bigger ape
and shows of mercy and like the Colonel

539
00:33:34,640 --> 00:33:38,039
kind of acknowledges that there's some tears
there. So he's a very like complex

540
00:33:38,119 --> 00:33:40,680
character where I think for me,
where I would have liked him more,

541
00:33:40,839 --> 00:33:45,279
I think we needed maybe a little
more time with him. And it's already

542
00:33:45,279 --> 00:33:46,640
a long movie, right, so
it's tough that it's a finale there's lots

543
00:33:46,680 --> 00:33:50,839
of apes, lots of pieces,
but I think maybe like even ten more

544
00:33:50,920 --> 00:33:54,279
minutes to learn a bit more about
him. So I still like it overall.

545
00:33:54,400 --> 00:33:58,400
And it's also tough coming off Koba, where I think Coba is top

546
00:33:58,440 --> 00:34:00,759
tier villain, where I think this
is like a very good villain for I

547
00:34:00,759 --> 00:34:06,640
guess what the story needs as far
as we just need Caesar to have vengeance

548
00:34:06,839 --> 00:34:09,400
filled in his heart. Right.
So I like the Colonel, but it's

549
00:34:09,440 --> 00:34:13,840
not like oh Man, one of
my favorite villains of you know, the

550
00:34:13,960 --> 00:34:15,760
sci fi Genre's like, okay,
he's he gets the job done, but

551
00:34:15,920 --> 00:34:19,679
Kirkle and you had some he had
some issues right here, you're done Withody

552
00:34:19,679 --> 00:34:23,280
Harrelson, you see him? Uh
No, I yeah, I'm not a

553
00:34:23,280 --> 00:34:28,159
fan of the Colonel here, I
and hear what you're saying. I feel

554
00:34:28,159 --> 00:34:32,159
like, for me, he just
he seemed a little too like one note

555
00:34:32,199 --> 00:34:36,360
in the sense of like he's never
gonna waiver from his decision, like he

556
00:34:36,519 --> 00:34:42,559
is just pure against the apes and
just like a little extreme, well very

557
00:34:42,559 --> 00:34:45,599
extreme actually when you find out he's
murking his own soldiers and even later on

558
00:34:45,719 --> 00:34:47,880
when he's talking about his son,
like I thought it was gonna be like

559
00:34:47,880 --> 00:34:52,039
a really heartfelt moment where he was
like really conflicted, you couldn't do it,

560
00:34:52,079 --> 00:34:53,320
but he's like, I just fucking
shot my son right then and there,

561
00:34:53,360 --> 00:34:57,079
yeah, because he's like this is
my purpose, this is my whatever.

562
00:34:57,159 --> 00:34:59,280
And much like Carver though, it's
like there are all those people,

563
00:34:59,320 --> 00:35:01,119
right, so it's like, well, semi believable, but like he's not

564
00:35:01,159 --> 00:35:05,039
really complicated from that point on,
Like he is just kind of a Darth

565
00:35:05,119 --> 00:35:07,480
Vader character. He's just evil and
he and like that's just what he is,

566
00:35:07,679 --> 00:35:13,519
and there's no real I don't know, like like there's not a lot

567
00:35:13,519 --> 00:35:15,639
of depth in his decision of like
wavering. Like I thought there's gonna be

568
00:35:15,719 --> 00:35:21,119
moments when he brings Caesar up to
his his quarters to uh, you know,

569
00:35:21,320 --> 00:35:23,719
just just just talk to him,
and then he loves talking to Caesar.

570
00:35:23,760 --> 00:35:28,119
Man. He like I'm always waiting
for them to be like help us

571
00:35:28,159 --> 00:35:29,880
with the war, and he gets
some food. But I feel like he

572
00:35:30,000 --> 00:35:31,960
just he does just want to see
what Caesar is and that's what I but

573
00:35:32,039 --> 00:35:35,719
that's what I was waiting for,
was like some of those moments of like

574
00:35:35,840 --> 00:35:37,760
maybe meeting somewhere in the middle,
like hey, if you agree to do

575
00:35:37,800 --> 00:35:42,079
this or like rally your troops.
I'll I'll give you people food and water,

576
00:35:42,159 --> 00:35:44,480
and he's like, you'll get your
fucking food and water when you're done

577
00:35:44,480 --> 00:35:46,440
building the wall. It's like the
wall's not gonna be built, like and

578
00:35:46,519 --> 00:35:50,159
that decision, it just it's like, hey, he's kind of stupid,

579
00:35:50,239 --> 00:35:53,000
like like he doesn't realize that the
apes actually need sustenance in order to work.

580
00:35:53,039 --> 00:35:55,039
But then the next day he does
get him that though, right he

581
00:35:55,079 --> 00:35:59,039
does. That's when the star shows
up. Okay, yeah, you got

582
00:35:59,079 --> 00:36:01,400
me there with the I guess it
does talk him down eventually, but he

583
00:36:01,400 --> 00:36:04,880
comes off as kind of like an
idiotor I agree with you there where it's

584
00:36:04,920 --> 00:36:07,000
like if Caesar doesn't say this,
he's like, well, let's just hope

585
00:36:07,039 --> 00:36:10,280
this works out, and like by
the end, you know, his his

586
00:36:10,400 --> 00:36:15,280
fade. He ultimately gets poisoned by
the doll that Nova has that she kind

587
00:36:15,280 --> 00:36:21,599
of infected infects him. I kind
of like how it was so simple in

588
00:36:21,639 --> 00:36:23,519
that sense, but it's also just
a little bit less satisfying because he doesn't

589
00:36:23,559 --> 00:36:28,079
really like he's not even really part
of the war. When it finally comes

590
00:36:28,079 --> 00:36:31,320
down to the other soldiers coming to
raid like he's just on bed rest.

591
00:36:31,440 --> 00:36:37,000
He's he's going, Yeah, when
the war starts, he's already gone.

592
00:36:37,039 --> 00:36:40,280
He's already made his But I think
that's supposed to say something that like,

593
00:36:42,039 --> 00:36:45,519
I guess he feels well, No, I guess it's shows he's a man

594
00:36:45,559 --> 00:36:49,639
of conviction. I guess right,
because he's willing to kill himself to stop

595
00:36:49,679 --> 00:36:52,440
this virus from going, even though
I feel like they buried the bodies in

596
00:36:52,480 --> 00:36:54,360
the snow because they felt it would
spread. So I feel like you're busted

597
00:36:54,400 --> 00:36:59,199
brains all over this lot isn't gonna
not spread it so all over the food

598
00:36:59,320 --> 00:37:01,639
rations. He just blew his head. At least go out there and maybe

599
00:37:01,639 --> 00:37:05,239
do some shooting first, you know, at least take a couple of bullets

600
00:37:05,239 --> 00:37:07,039
and save some of your guys.
But these guys are fighting a war that

601
00:37:07,039 --> 00:37:10,400
they don't even know is over their
colonels up there fucking dead. It's like

602
00:37:10,400 --> 00:37:15,480
an eight off Hitler situation. We
just just covered Rebel Moon part two,

603
00:37:15,480 --> 00:37:19,960
and we were talking about that that
king's mother that just like suicide herself when

604
00:37:19,960 --> 00:37:23,000
the invasion was happening. Same idea, like his soldiers don't really even know

605
00:37:23,039 --> 00:37:28,960
what happened to him, like the
like on their on their Yeah, the

606
00:37:29,280 --> 00:37:31,880
morale is like where's our soldier or
sorry, where's our leader to like lead

607
00:37:32,039 --> 00:37:36,320
the soldiers into battle, and he's
They just think he's fucking hiding out in

608
00:37:36,320 --> 00:37:44,480
his bedroom listening to some tunes,
jerking off or something. One minute,

609
00:37:45,119 --> 00:37:49,079
I did like that Caesar didn't pull
the trigger. You know, it showed

610
00:37:49,119 --> 00:37:53,960
the I don't know, just more
so the character of Caesar better man than

611
00:37:54,000 --> 00:37:57,519
me. I would have fucking took
my monkey Claus and I would have been

612
00:37:57,559 --> 00:38:00,920
all over that guy. Fisto,
yeah, each bone. I would start

613
00:38:00,960 --> 00:38:04,840
by one leg. Oh yeah,
I don't care. I said, I'm

614
00:38:04,840 --> 00:38:07,760
all for the death. I'm not
in the oh. I forgive you mercy,

615
00:38:07,800 --> 00:38:10,719
no penalty to fucking just torturing this
guy to death. Break I think,

616
00:38:12,239 --> 00:38:15,480
I don't care. You're going citizen
on him. Cut this out,

617
00:38:15,599 --> 00:38:20,079
share it when I run for office
one day. Fucking people that are raping

618
00:38:20,119 --> 00:38:22,719
and killing kids whatnot. You could
torch those people all day long. I

619
00:38:22,719 --> 00:38:24,360
don't give a ship. Those are
people that don't deserve it. So if

620
00:38:24,400 --> 00:38:29,280
it's like we're gonna if their death
was hey, you know you're a pedophile

621
00:38:29,360 --> 00:38:31,280
you did these things, you're death
by executioners. We're gonna put you in

622
00:38:31,280 --> 00:38:35,000
a room with a chimpanzee. Good
luck to you. I'd be like,

623
00:38:35,079 --> 00:38:37,800
yeah, sure, dude, Like
I'm completely like Caesar should have fucking pounded

624
00:38:37,880 --> 00:38:43,280
up every bone in that guy's body
because fuck man, like he did not

625
00:38:43,360 --> 00:38:45,840
have to kill. Like he's like, oh I was looking for you.

626
00:38:45,320 --> 00:38:47,480
You know, that's not them,
this fucking like you know this, like

627
00:38:47,559 --> 00:38:52,159
especially this female ape like you know, like you know, it's not Caesar.

628
00:38:52,320 --> 00:38:54,000
So he's just a piece and it's
fine because that's whatoy Harrelson's character.

629
00:38:54,000 --> 00:38:58,000
He's a piece of shit person.
But like he didn't have to kill those

630
00:38:58,039 --> 00:39:00,760
people, you know. So on
the note, I think it would have

631
00:39:00,800 --> 00:39:04,159
been better if Caesar didn't leave the
gun with him and just fucking left him.

632
00:39:06,000 --> 00:39:07,400
Yeah, so I'm not gonna kill
you. I'm not gonna kill you,

633
00:39:07,480 --> 00:39:09,280
but I'm not gonna save you either, you know, yeah, because

634
00:39:09,360 --> 00:39:13,079
yeah, that would have been the
result I would have preferred there. So

635
00:39:13,559 --> 00:39:15,000
yeah, just taking the high road, right because the whole movie didn't and

636
00:39:15,039 --> 00:39:19,559
to fuck him over. So he's
gonna I'm I'm not gonna kill I'm gonna

637
00:39:19,599 --> 00:39:22,960
let him do whatever he wants.
So the ape Caesar is a better person

638
00:39:22,960 --> 00:39:24,000
than me, I guess, so
I wouldn't have been surprised. But the

639
00:39:24,000 --> 00:39:29,760
Colonel just shot Caesar there and then
shot himself like like like the movie did

640
00:39:29,800 --> 00:39:34,920
nothing for me to think otherwise.
Yeah, he is a piece of shit

641
00:39:35,000 --> 00:39:37,599
character that would do. He did
have like a war mentality, so he

642
00:39:37,679 --> 00:39:40,960
respected Caesar for like putting him out
of his misery. That's why, like

643
00:39:42,000 --> 00:39:45,159
it's very like it is a very
the reason I guess some like why the

644
00:39:45,239 --> 00:39:49,880
character works and doesn't work for me
because like I don't like I don't get

645
00:39:49,920 --> 00:39:52,880
on board with like the war mentality
and people like that. So it is

646
00:39:52,920 --> 00:39:57,239
that sort of way of well he
is now respects Caesar because he gave him

647
00:39:57,239 --> 00:40:00,039
the chance to off himself instead just
killing him, right, and he's showing

648
00:40:00,039 --> 00:40:04,719
a mercy so fair enough. Yeah, overall, didn't love it. Really

649
00:40:04,760 --> 00:40:07,440
didn't like the Colonel. I think
I was just expecting a lot, especially

650
00:40:07,519 --> 00:40:10,800
the complexity of our villains from the
previous movie. It was just like,

651
00:40:10,800 --> 00:40:14,480
Okay, this guy's just evil and
we're just going with that. You know.

652
00:40:14,599 --> 00:40:16,400
He made some arguments for like he
does give them food, which is

653
00:40:16,440 --> 00:40:21,159
fair enough, but yeah, just
not what I was hoping for. Yeah,

654
00:40:21,320 --> 00:40:23,159
but great job and make it if
you want to, if you want

655
00:40:23,400 --> 00:40:25,679
to make me feel like you want
a character to die, I think they

656
00:40:25,719 --> 00:40:30,039
did that. Theyre all that stuff
with the apes and the camps and treat

657
00:40:30,079 --> 00:40:31,079
them the way they are. They
got them shrung up, just like they

658
00:40:31,079 --> 00:40:36,280
did in the original movies, like
they're from places, those xes up,

659
00:40:36,800 --> 00:40:38,320
yeah, and like that's brutal.
They're just like out there, some of

660
00:40:38,320 --> 00:40:42,000
them dying. Did. Like caes
you got thrown water on, which that's

661
00:40:42,039 --> 00:40:45,000
a piece of trivia. They told
Circus it was gonna be warm water.

662
00:40:45,280 --> 00:40:46,880
They fully intended it to be warm
water, but they forgot to warm up.

663
00:40:46,920 --> 00:40:50,280
So when they threw it on me, it was ice cold. But

664
00:40:50,360 --> 00:40:53,519
he was happy because he's like,
oh it made the scene better because yeah,

665
00:40:53,679 --> 00:40:59,360
these suits stink. But yeah,
so that's the same thing. In

666
00:40:59,400 --> 00:41:01,679
the store, they throw cold water
on just let them sit overnight, and

667
00:41:01,719 --> 00:41:05,599
it's like already the apes, like
you can see their breasts. It's like

668
00:41:05,960 --> 00:41:07,760
this fucking that's the same thing.
Even if Caesars don't get shot, there's

669
00:41:07,760 --> 00:41:10,880
a chance he's fucking dying for just
like hypothermia, so like he was,

670
00:41:12,119 --> 00:41:15,880
they put him through the fucking ringer. But I think they if you talk

671
00:41:15,880 --> 00:41:17,360
about the middle portion as far as
if, which I think they want to

672
00:41:17,360 --> 00:41:21,239
do, make you just feel dread. They even the first they make you

673
00:41:21,239 --> 00:41:23,280
feel dread. Those camps feel real
bad, like they're definitely going for like

674
00:41:23,320 --> 00:41:28,360
when we talk about like apes,
the first one having that you know,

675
00:41:28,480 --> 00:41:30,679
kind of a lot of allusions to
racisms and things that happen in life.

676
00:41:30,840 --> 00:41:34,639
That's concentration camps, right, They're
like what they're doing there, and they

677
00:41:34,679 --> 00:41:37,920
do a very good like that poor
rangeting when he can't even fucking move and

678
00:41:37,960 --> 00:41:39,840
then so he's like, oh,
he just needs food, and the colonel

679
00:41:39,840 --> 00:41:42,920
like gives a head and then just
shoots them right on the spot. You're

680
00:41:42,960 --> 00:41:45,599
like, fuck man, like anybody
can go. But it's I think it's

681
00:41:45,639 --> 00:41:49,239
smart. One thing I will give
the colonel though, because I know some

682
00:41:49,239 --> 00:41:51,559
people are like, oh, why
didn't just shoot Caesar. I think the

683
00:41:51,599 --> 00:41:54,000
colonel recognizes that, Like if he
shoots Caesar, I think these apes are

684
00:41:54,039 --> 00:41:57,920
gonna fucking turn on me because they
all like so I did like that where

685
00:41:57,920 --> 00:42:01,119
he was smart enough to go,
Okay, I gotta try to somehow work

686
00:42:01,199 --> 00:42:04,719
or figure out something to do with
this ape, because if I kill this

687
00:42:04,800 --> 00:42:07,199
guy, they might turn and sure
they might die, right, but that's

688
00:42:07,239 --> 00:42:09,760
not the point. They don't want. They're not there to make the apes

689
00:42:09,800 --> 00:42:13,079
their slaves. They need these apes
to get this fucking wall built, so

690
00:42:13,159 --> 00:42:15,840
they save themselves. So that that's
where I like that push and pull of

691
00:42:15,960 --> 00:42:20,639
Caesar does have a little power,
and Caesar knows that because it's a great

692
00:42:20,639 --> 00:42:22,599
scene when they're all like cheering,
and it's almost similar to the first one.

693
00:42:22,639 --> 00:42:25,159
I remember when Brian Cox was going
out that night and he looked and

694
00:42:25,159 --> 00:42:28,440
all the apes were like, oh, like, they have that moment again

695
00:42:28,599 --> 00:42:31,840
here where Woody Harrison realizes fuck like, he is like the alpha, like

696
00:42:31,840 --> 00:42:36,239
that there's no I gotta be careful
with how I do this. So I

697
00:42:36,280 --> 00:42:37,800
still think that he would have shot
Caesar right there though, right he was

698
00:42:37,840 --> 00:42:42,159
counting down to five and then Lake
like gets back to work, and that's

699
00:42:42,239 --> 00:42:44,960
kind of what changes. Yeah,
I think, yeah, I think there.

700
00:42:45,079 --> 00:42:46,719
I think later on, I think
you're right. I think later on

701
00:42:46,760 --> 00:42:51,599
he realizes not so much. So
that's why he pins him up and does

702
00:42:51,639 --> 00:42:52,400
like, well, I'm not gonna
kill your leader, but I can show

703
00:42:52,440 --> 00:42:58,039
you that I can have your yes. So I think you're right in that

704
00:42:58,079 --> 00:43:00,880
moment though he hadn't put tune to
get there, and he was ready just

705
00:43:00,920 --> 00:43:05,280
to you know, good on lake
for save and save the fucking huge rock

706
00:43:05,320 --> 00:43:07,719
shait to lift up. My god, he probably saved all the apes there,

707
00:43:07,760 --> 00:43:09,480
because if Caesar dies, I don't
think they they would have been able

708
00:43:09,519 --> 00:43:12,719
to get out of there. Right. Hopefully her and Marie are of the

709
00:43:12,760 --> 00:43:15,840
one lean apes because she was making
those who were making better decisions than Caesar

710
00:43:15,960 --> 00:43:19,639
was in this movie, you know, because he was absolutely especially the pivotal

711
00:43:19,719 --> 00:43:23,639
moment. He just that pivotal moment, you know, fucking Corneas just lost

712
00:43:23,679 --> 00:43:28,079
his brother, lost his mom.
I feel like maybe he's close with dad

713
00:43:28,159 --> 00:43:30,480
Mo, not the closest because I
feel like Caesar's like always busy off to

714
00:43:30,559 --> 00:43:36,239
war doing this type of stuff.
So the fact that his son's there and

715
00:43:36,239 --> 00:43:38,360
they're about to go to a new
location, that's when Caesar decides this is

716
00:43:38,400 --> 00:43:43,719
the time. It's much like Aragorn
right before the Big Bower Turn the King,

717
00:43:43,719 --> 00:43:45,280
where he has to go speak to
the arm and dead. All the

718
00:43:45,320 --> 00:43:47,880
apes are like what the fuck?
Like where's Caesar going at least for that

719
00:43:47,920 --> 00:43:50,960
one though, Ara Goron's like,
well, I'm going so I can like

720
00:43:51,320 --> 00:43:54,320
hope again an army to help us
out. Caesar's leaving completely just for ah,

721
00:43:54,599 --> 00:43:57,960
fuck you guys all, you know, Like I like, he's not

722
00:43:58,039 --> 00:44:00,039
saying that, but the same way, A big thing to put on Lake,

723
00:44:00,320 --> 00:44:04,119
like take care of my son.
It's like that shouldn't be her fucking

724
00:44:04,119 --> 00:44:06,639
burden, like step no, man, Like I know that guy killed your

725
00:44:06,679 --> 00:44:08,320
wife and somebody like, no,
you gotta step up. You gotta stay

726
00:44:08,320 --> 00:44:10,880
here to take care of your son. But I like that for the character

727
00:44:10,920 --> 00:44:17,679
because again it makes you, uh
question your your hero. So we want

728
00:44:17,679 --> 00:44:21,840
to go to next Yeah, we
lost Luca. We we met uh what

729
00:44:22,000 --> 00:44:27,960
was the what'll bino ape? Winter
winter fucking turncoat? He was scared next

730
00:44:28,000 --> 00:44:31,280
day essentially, yeah, exactly,
Yeah, but I see, and that's

731
00:44:31,280 --> 00:44:35,719
so death. I really like that
they're trying to make him quiet, but

732
00:44:35,880 --> 00:44:37,760
like Caesar's just still so pissed off
with this ape, but he kind of

733
00:44:37,880 --> 00:44:42,760
accidentally kills the ape, like I
guess, like up to interpretation, but

734
00:44:42,840 --> 00:44:45,840
yeah, we lost him. We
didn't lose rocket. We lost Luca.

735
00:44:45,880 --> 00:44:49,039
Who Yeah, I got shot by
a couple of soldiers. Unfortunately, he

736
00:44:49,079 --> 00:44:51,360
got stabbed in the end. Yeah, you're right, he got stabbed by

737
00:44:51,360 --> 00:44:54,159
the what is that thing? They
haven't like a Yeah, so he fucking

738
00:44:54,199 --> 00:44:57,760
killed those guys. But yeah he
got which I'm surpri I guess if you

739
00:44:57,840 --> 00:45:00,840
hit a grill on the right spot, it could do the trick. I

740
00:45:00,840 --> 00:45:02,639
guess, right, he's the big
guys. But like that was a moment

741
00:45:02,719 --> 00:45:08,239
that I just didn't think the death
was necessary. And also it is just

742
00:45:08,280 --> 00:45:12,320
like, okay, we're just dropping
characters here, like, Okay, you

743
00:45:12,320 --> 00:45:15,639
got poked with a little fucking toothpick. Okay, this giant gorilla gets killed

744
00:45:15,679 --> 00:45:19,599
here. But it's just it just
split up Caesar from the other ones,

745
00:45:19,679 --> 00:45:22,760
right, because that's exactly you man, exactly, And like it just seems

746
00:45:22,800 --> 00:45:25,639
like, okay, by this point
in the movie, we have to be

747
00:45:25,719 --> 00:45:30,159
down to x amount of apes,
so let's just say that he gets poked

748
00:45:30,159 --> 00:45:35,800
by little bayonet here, you know, drops his giant gorilla. Like story

749
00:45:35,840 --> 00:45:38,000
wise, it didn't really seem super
necessary because we still have a shit ton

750
00:45:38,039 --> 00:45:42,199
of apes in the end, Like
why does it? I guess it just

751
00:45:42,239 --> 00:45:45,000
has to be a consequence thing.
But well, because I think the idea

752
00:45:45,039 --> 00:45:47,719
is so like it's literally just story
stuff because Caesar has to be alone,

753
00:45:47,800 --> 00:45:52,280
right, and then those apes can't
be with him because they help escape,

754
00:45:52,360 --> 00:45:54,400
right, so they all get kidnapped. They don't find the underground. So

755
00:45:54,960 --> 00:45:59,840
it's literally just like a story exposition
sort of thing of how do we sweat

756
00:45:59,840 --> 00:46:02,280
these guys out? Okay, Luca
has to die and they say this is

757
00:46:02,360 --> 00:46:05,639
enough, let's go back, and
then she was like, no, I'm

758
00:46:05,639 --> 00:46:07,159
not going. So that's why it's
just kind of like a it's a plot

759
00:46:07,199 --> 00:46:12,920
device to get Caesar alone and then
those other apes what was Rocket bad Ape

760
00:46:12,960 --> 00:46:16,199
and uh Maurice and then Nova you
know Nova. Yeah, I think it's

761
00:46:16,320 --> 00:46:21,519
I think it's Charlton Heston's coming for
you look out. I think it's the

762
00:46:21,559 --> 00:46:24,159
same thing with like Blue Eyes,
where I'm not upset that the death happened,

763
00:46:24,159 --> 00:46:28,079
it's more so just the execution of
it. It wasn't satisfying enough,

764
00:46:28,159 --> 00:46:30,559
especially like come on, Luca,
that's his boy from the zoo, right,

765
00:46:30,639 --> 00:46:34,800
like like that was his first Gorilla. They get the ball rolling Luca

766
00:46:34,800 --> 00:46:37,119
because yeah, like he helped Yeah, so good soldier man though, Luca

767
00:46:37,599 --> 00:46:40,199
to the end, man, he
like, I take him right or die

768
00:46:40,239 --> 00:46:44,760
to the Actually was that the I
don't know what? No, wasn't the

769
00:46:44,800 --> 00:46:46,719
gorilla in the first apes. Wasn't
that the one that died in the helicopter?

770
00:46:47,159 --> 00:46:50,599
Oh? Yeah, you're right,
Yeah, okay, never mind,

771
00:46:50,760 --> 00:46:55,039
Remember he got Luca Luca can die
then I guess he was in Rupert Riots

772
00:46:57,119 --> 00:47:00,840
apes. You'll Never be Lucas?
Yeah? What about you? How do

773
00:47:00,840 --> 00:47:05,039
you feel about some of these other
death of the Chimpanzees apes? And and

774
00:47:05,039 --> 00:47:07,159
also you can start off, how
did you feel about Bad Ape? We

775
00:47:07,199 --> 00:47:10,039
get made Steve's on who you know, massive fan for me day daycare?

776
00:47:10,159 --> 00:47:14,760
Man. I loved Steve's on that
fucking movie. Man. So how do

777
00:47:14,760 --> 00:47:17,079
you feel with those apes and a
bad Ape being introduced? Because I feel

778
00:47:17,119 --> 00:47:22,360
like that's a mixed character for people. Bad Ape. So well, yeah,

779
00:47:22,480 --> 00:47:24,119
again the deaths, I don't have
much else to add aside from it's

780
00:47:24,159 --> 00:47:28,199
just it's it's it's it's a stakes
and it just really really heavy. Yeah,

781
00:47:28,519 --> 00:47:31,440
good good death. Fuck. I
think that was Bad Ape. I

782
00:47:31,480 --> 00:47:36,440
think he's a very interesting character.
I liked seeing this ape because to me,

783
00:47:36,599 --> 00:47:40,760
it was we have an introduction of
an ape that's outside of the Caesars

784
00:47:40,760 --> 00:47:45,760
group and this is our first foot
out the door of understanding. Okay,

785
00:47:45,840 --> 00:47:49,280
we can see that, Like as
mentioned before, this flu is spread across

786
00:47:49,280 --> 00:47:51,840
the world, and there's other apes
that are now affected by this, and

787
00:47:51,880 --> 00:47:53,599
they they don't they mean, they
don't have groups. They're just on their

788
00:47:53,639 --> 00:47:58,519
own surviving, but they they are
out there, and it's it's cool to

789
00:47:58,559 --> 00:48:02,559
see the spread of us and the
great of of this the Ape. I

790
00:48:02,559 --> 00:48:07,840
guess civilization because the movies do a
good job at feeling like it's very small

791
00:48:07,880 --> 00:48:12,400
and it's a limited just Caesars group
and it's just a more of a minority

792
00:48:12,440 --> 00:48:15,800
dealing with this war and everything.
But for me, Bad Ape just feels

793
00:48:15,800 --> 00:48:17,599
like he's just a victim of this, this fallout of this war. And

794
00:48:20,320 --> 00:48:22,840
yeah, I think he's just an
interesting character. Almost got blown away,

795
00:48:22,840 --> 00:48:28,519
but he didn't. So Caesar doesn't
survive, Bad Ape does. It's the

796
00:48:28,559 --> 00:48:34,360
new leader now bad Ape bad is
taken a lead. I could be I

797
00:48:34,360 --> 00:48:37,800
wouldn't want that, but I think
I like I like that he was just

798
00:48:37,880 --> 00:48:39,920
he was talking and he was talking
better than some of the other apes were

799
00:48:39,960 --> 00:48:44,480
too. Yeah, And I guess
at this stage of the game, like

800
00:48:44,519 --> 00:48:47,079
not all the apes are still very
like proficient English speakers. They're still they're

801
00:48:47,079 --> 00:48:53,360
still getting there. Yeah, yeah, I'm I think bad ape. I

802
00:48:53,480 --> 00:48:59,280
was maybe annoyed with my first go
around much too. I think Taylor's false

803
00:48:59,320 --> 00:49:01,480
claim that this movie has a lot
of sweetness in it. I think that

804
00:49:02,159 --> 00:49:06,880
bad ape is needed now I've watched
it this time, because it is a

805
00:49:07,039 --> 00:49:09,840
very die I don't know in needed
right. I actually don't know that because

806
00:49:09,880 --> 00:49:13,960
I watched The Batman. There's like
no comedic like there's jokes, but there's

807
00:49:14,000 --> 00:49:16,719
like a comedic character. It's fine, So I think honest like this I

808
00:49:16,760 --> 00:49:21,719
think is probably my third watch of
this one, I am more used to

809
00:49:21,800 --> 00:49:23,920
it. I don't dislike the character. I think it's fine from a screen

810
00:49:23,960 --> 00:49:28,559
time they have, so I think
I generally go into the camp of it's

811
00:49:28,559 --> 00:49:30,079
not a negative for me, but
it's also not like if you took it

812
00:49:30,079 --> 00:49:32,440
out of the movie, would I
miss it? No, So that's what

813
00:49:32,519 --> 00:49:36,280
you could do with runtime. Maybe
I would take out some of his stuff

814
00:49:36,280 --> 00:49:37,920
and give more time to the Colonel
to add some more layers there. So

815
00:49:38,840 --> 00:49:43,360
I'm kind of like positive in the
middle of it. But I've seen a

816
00:49:43,519 --> 00:49:45,360
pivot of all this character noise,
which I absolutely get because sometimes those characters

817
00:49:45,360 --> 00:49:47,679
any the fuck out of me.
I think with this one, I guess

818
00:49:47,719 --> 00:49:50,840
even to that point too, like
the Batman, Like, of course you're

819
00:49:50,880 --> 00:49:53,199
dealing with Bruce Wayne's dead parents,
but that's like years later this movie opens

820
00:49:53,239 --> 00:49:55,960
up again with the murder of like
a wife and a child. So it's

821
00:49:57,000 --> 00:50:00,320
like, I I kind of understand
why at some point where he's and coming

822
00:50:00,280 --> 00:50:04,320
to and be like we need like
somebody in here to just add like just

823
00:50:04,360 --> 00:50:07,400
a breath, like just a breather
to be like, hey, it's not

824
00:50:07,559 --> 00:50:10,039
all just fucking awful because you're not
making jokes at the camp. You're not

825
00:50:10,079 --> 00:50:14,559
making jokes like right after season lose
his family, so like to have this

826
00:50:14,639 --> 00:50:16,960
look, and I like Steve's on
I think he plays it the right way.

827
00:50:17,079 --> 00:50:21,960
So yeah, I end up being
like I guess pro bad ape,

828
00:50:21,960 --> 00:50:23,519
you know, but I'm not like
gonna fight to the death for bad ape.

829
00:50:23,639 --> 00:50:29,280
So yeah, I uh. For
the most part, I didn't love

830
00:50:29,320 --> 00:50:31,599
the just comedic relief character, but
you do make a good point that you

831
00:50:31,679 --> 00:50:37,079
kind of need it for just how
dour this movie is overall, like it

832
00:50:37,119 --> 00:50:39,760
is very depressing, and there was
a couple of moments that kind of got

833
00:50:39,800 --> 00:50:45,039
me with just like his his certain
reactions to the thing. But I think

834
00:50:45,199 --> 00:50:50,119
I'm think I'm I'm happy that they
didn't overdo it with the humor. I

835
00:50:50,159 --> 00:50:53,320
think there's some moments that felt like
maybe it was being overdone, but yeah,

836
00:50:53,400 --> 00:50:57,519
it was. It was alright.
He was also reminded me of my

837
00:50:57,559 --> 00:51:00,559
one grandfather, which was just hilarious
because he's kind of smaller and you guys

838
00:51:00,559 --> 00:51:07,960
called Grandpa just broke his soul every
time. What's up back? They dressed

839
00:51:07,000 --> 00:51:10,000
like that too, Yeah, he
does definitely if you were if he's wearing

840
00:51:10,039 --> 00:51:13,360
like a tuke or something, he
just looks like a little little bad ape.

841
00:51:13,440 --> 00:51:19,480
But no pants, no pants,
he's cock out always Grandpa put some

842
00:51:19,519 --> 00:51:22,480
clothes on. I did like when
he was wearing the sweater that was That

843
00:51:22,599 --> 00:51:25,719
was a funny moment, and I
guess just also showing that, like there

844
00:51:25,760 --> 00:51:30,400
are apes out there that are kind
of just on their own and yeah,

845
00:51:30,079 --> 00:51:32,599
what's your finger? I thought you
were going a different way. I'll respond

846
00:51:32,639 --> 00:51:37,000
after them, Okay, No,
I I like that, like just showing

847
00:51:37,119 --> 00:51:42,360
that obviously, the Simon flu is
everywhere and it's affecting apes. Everywhere,

848
00:51:42,360 --> 00:51:45,159
and some apes that aren't necessarily you
know, with a faction of of other

849
00:51:45,199 --> 00:51:47,960
ones and are just kind of on
their own. And he is very loopy,

850
00:51:49,000 --> 00:51:51,639
but it makes sense for someone that's
just been living on their own and

851
00:51:51,639 --> 00:51:54,000
and kind of just you know,
getting stir crazy, like cabin favor,

852
00:51:54,119 --> 00:51:57,960
like you look like a hoarder.
He had just all these objects everywhere.

853
00:51:57,960 --> 00:52:00,960
When Nova kept grabbing things, he
was like talking, He's like, don't

854
00:52:00,960 --> 00:52:02,719
touch that, don't touch that.
Like he just seems a little bit out

855
00:52:02,760 --> 00:52:07,440
there in the psyche, which I
guess it makes sense why he is kind

856
00:52:07,480 --> 00:52:12,119
of comedic, because he is just
goofy and weird and very different from the

857
00:52:12,159 --> 00:52:15,440
other ones. And like Caesar is
even just like I feel like he's never

858
00:52:15,519 --> 00:52:19,000
dealt with an ape like that before. He just it's like, well,

859
00:52:19,039 --> 00:52:22,519
I guess we kind of need everyone, especially someone that knows the location to

860
00:52:22,639 --> 00:52:27,880
this one play freak. Yeah,
as you say, the way you're going

861
00:52:28,000 --> 00:52:30,119
is another reason. Well, I
guess I think they add on bad ape

862
00:52:30,119 --> 00:52:35,400
to for the lore he is.
I guess when they go back to whatever

863
00:52:35,440 --> 00:52:38,679
it is their new home, he's
part of the apes that starts the kind

864
00:52:38,679 --> 00:52:42,440
of inspiration for them to start wearing
clothes and stuff because he wears it for

865
00:52:42,480 --> 00:52:45,440
a different reason. But Matt Reeves
said that was the end the intention there

866
00:52:45,480 --> 00:52:49,639
because Apes so far having worn clothes, He's wearing clothes that kind of gets

867
00:52:49,639 --> 00:52:52,039
them to even though I feel like
in these movies spin years later they're not

868
00:52:52,079 --> 00:52:57,800
really wearing too much clothes yet,
but that was the intention. So there

869
00:52:57,840 --> 00:53:00,960
you go, bad Apes started a
trend, big fashion better Badie. It

870
00:53:00,000 --> 00:53:02,400
makes sense why he's the one wearing
the clothes too, because he just he's

871
00:53:02,400 --> 00:53:05,480
so much more frail than the other
ones. He doesn't have a lot of

872
00:53:05,480 --> 00:53:10,000
hair compared so he needs a little
bit more insulation. Yeah, I'm trying

873
00:53:10,000 --> 00:53:14,119
to think, is there any I
my notes? I think I have my

874
00:53:14,239 --> 00:53:21,320
biggest note, Nova with the little
nova symbol there. There's somebody supposed to

875
00:53:21,360 --> 00:53:24,519
be the same characters that the That's
where we get into like I kind of

876
00:53:24,519 --> 00:53:28,760
forgot about Nova. So a couple
of weeks ago or months when we record

877
00:53:28,800 --> 00:53:30,559
the episode, when I and Taylor
were talking about like, hey, can

878
00:53:30,599 --> 00:53:35,679
you make this still a prequel to
the original Apes or is it its own

879
00:53:35,719 --> 00:53:37,199
timeline? I think now with like
the Nova stuff, you have to kind

880
00:53:37,199 --> 00:53:43,239
of lean into like it's its own
timeline, which again I also think Kingdom

881
00:53:43,280 --> 00:53:45,119
of the Plant Apes is going to
probably shoot that theory as well too,

882
00:53:45,159 --> 00:53:49,760
so I'm kind of fine with that. So I actually think Nova is a

883
00:53:49,800 --> 00:53:52,119
character I could do without, to
be honest, more than bad Ape.

884
00:53:52,119 --> 00:53:55,800
I don't think Nova really brings anything
to the story other than like that's like

885
00:53:55,840 --> 00:53:58,760
you said, that's the one good
person. But it's like, I know

886
00:53:58,920 --> 00:54:01,079
Caesar and Maurice and other apes,
like not all of them hate humans.

887
00:54:01,079 --> 00:54:05,679
They're taking care of someone. And
I think it would be different if Caesar

888
00:54:05,760 --> 00:54:09,400
survived and he's raising this human girl
because he lost a child, and in

889
00:54:09,480 --> 00:54:14,400
a sequel, you see, hey, I think there's something fun with that,

890
00:54:14,599 --> 00:54:16,280
the same way with it's funny with
this movie. Houd Jump three hundred

891
00:54:16,320 --> 00:54:20,119
years and we did down retro and
that was a pitch from Mat where he's

892
00:54:20,119 --> 00:54:22,320
like, oh, let's not jump
the future. That's here, and I

893
00:54:22,320 --> 00:54:25,840
think there is something interesting. Okay, how does a female human grow up

894
00:54:25,880 --> 00:54:30,280
in a like a with apes?
Right, But that's not happening it they're

895
00:54:30,320 --> 00:54:34,360
all apes the next one. So
I think all the interesting stuff you could

896
00:54:34,360 --> 00:54:37,039
do with Nova is not really touch
bunch. She just kind of like I

897
00:54:37,039 --> 00:54:38,679
guess, k. Of course she
gives Caesar some food and helps with the

898
00:54:38,840 --> 00:54:43,519
escape, but you could just shift
that the bad ape or somebody, right,

899
00:54:43,599 --> 00:54:46,000
Like I don't. Again, I
don't think it's like a brings down

900
00:54:46,039 --> 00:54:49,320
the movie. But if you're also
looking at screen time, where I think

901
00:54:49,360 --> 00:54:51,039
it is, Like I said,
what is this, I think it's two

902
00:54:51,039 --> 00:54:52,360
and a half hours. There is
a longer movie. I think there's some

903
00:54:52,400 --> 00:54:57,159
things you could shave off or just
put to somebody else, you know,

904
00:54:57,199 --> 00:55:00,840
like I said, the Coronel stuff. So it's two hours twenty so about

905
00:55:00,880 --> 00:55:04,440
two fifteen two ten. So yeah, no, I didn't hate the characters.

906
00:55:04,480 --> 00:55:06,719
Like all, I was bringing it
down, but it wasn't needed.

907
00:55:06,719 --> 00:55:07,960
But yeah, I guess it's uh. I think now it's just like a

908
00:55:08,039 --> 00:55:12,559
nice tribute to our Nova. And
then it is a different timeline because this

909
00:55:12,559 --> 00:55:15,920
couldn't be right as round years later
should be dead. So yeah, but

910
00:55:15,960 --> 00:55:19,440
who knows Cornelius. That name fucking
passes around every fucking genner. So maybe

911
00:55:19,440 --> 00:55:22,159
Nova's just very Papa in the human
world there with the original Nova with Heston.

912
00:55:22,239 --> 00:55:25,719
Yeah, no, yeah, I
completely agree with you. I think

913
00:55:25,760 --> 00:55:30,400
that it's not necessary to the story, but I I don't know. I

914
00:55:30,960 --> 00:55:36,280
actually like the dynamic of especially Maurice
like being super kind of protective of her,

915
00:55:36,440 --> 00:55:37,639
like when when Caesar's like, we
can't take her with us, like

916
00:55:37,679 --> 00:55:39,920
we gotta go, and He's like, I understand that, but like I

917
00:55:39,960 --> 00:55:44,239
also can't leave her, so like
the ball is kind of in your court?

918
00:55:44,280 --> 00:55:45,480
Am I am I staying here?
Or are we taking her with her

919
00:55:45,719 --> 00:55:50,599
or taking her with us? And
I don't know. It's just again with

920
00:55:50,639 --> 00:55:52,320
the whole marketing material. I just
love the image of them on the horse

921
00:55:52,360 --> 00:55:54,360
and then you just have the one
little girl that they're kind of protecting,

922
00:55:54,440 --> 00:56:00,639
and uh, just it's an interesting
variable to have because now they're there's there's

923
00:56:00,719 --> 00:56:05,679
a vulnerable, squishy human with them, you know that that like it needs

924
00:56:05,719 --> 00:56:08,400
protection and she would very much die
on her own, like very fast with

925
00:56:08,400 --> 00:56:12,840
with without them taking her own.
So I don't know. It's it's a

926
00:56:12,920 --> 00:56:16,280
dynamic I I liked, but didn't
was it wasn't necessary. I agree,

927
00:56:17,760 --> 00:56:22,559
Yeah, I think this is one
of the things that I really like about

928
00:56:22,599 --> 00:56:27,159
this movie, is just having her
tag along. And I guess maybe for

929
00:56:27,280 --> 00:56:30,119
Caesar it's just not like a pet
project. But he sees it as a

930
00:56:30,719 --> 00:56:36,480
way of keeping coexistence even after he
is gone, and he can see this

931
00:56:36,519 --> 00:56:39,639
as being instilled in his in his
people in the community, that there's a

932
00:56:39,679 --> 00:56:44,840
way for us to be the better
here. And he understands that there's something

933
00:56:44,880 --> 00:56:47,039
going on with the humans yet again, that they're they're going through their own

934
00:56:47,039 --> 00:56:52,320
tribulation here with this yet again.
Yeah, so I think that I think

935
00:56:52,320 --> 00:56:57,039
that it speaks volumes that he wanted
to take in this this human, just

936
00:56:57,079 --> 00:56:59,519
this child and use it because I
think, again, the child is very

937
00:56:59,519 --> 00:57:02,280
innocent, and you could use this
child to, like I said, build

938
00:57:02,400 --> 00:57:06,800
up a better future by having this
coexistence. And so I think that's why

939
00:57:06,920 --> 00:57:12,679
it's very important to keep this child
alive throughout this process, which again speaks

940
00:57:12,679 --> 00:57:15,599
even more volumes because he's at war, like fuck these humans, they are

941
00:57:15,639 --> 00:57:19,639
slaving him away, but yet he
still wants this girl to stay alive and

942
00:57:19,960 --> 00:57:22,159
stay safe. So I think it's
I think she adds a lot more.

943
00:57:22,159 --> 00:57:25,599
But as far as yeah, whatever
her her fate is in three hundred years,

944
00:57:25,639 --> 00:57:29,519
I don't think that's uh, that's
up for any kind of debate.

945
00:57:29,559 --> 00:57:32,800
I think she's she's dead. Maybe
that's the other thing that makes you not

946
00:57:32,800 --> 00:57:36,199
be able to speak, but it
gives you longer life span. You know,

947
00:57:37,239 --> 00:57:39,760
would you make that trade, you
would not just speak, but you'd

948
00:57:39,800 --> 00:57:44,840
be dumb down like to Well,
yeah, it's tough with the dumb day

949
00:57:44,840 --> 00:57:47,199
because that doesn't happen in this movie
though, right, like does she like

950
00:57:47,239 --> 00:57:51,360
that's gonna have So I'm saying in
this movie because I think if you add

951
00:57:51,360 --> 00:57:53,320
the dumb downs, well clearly not. But like let's say I'm starting off

952
00:57:53,400 --> 00:57:57,639
the pitches. You can live your
you know, sixty eighty years or you

953
00:57:57,679 --> 00:58:00,159
live like three hundred years but do
not speak. I all depends on life,

954
00:58:00,159 --> 00:58:02,239
like I think, like, right, I don't know, like I

955
00:58:02,239 --> 00:58:06,119
guess even right now, because I
guess I could see my kids generation go

956
00:58:06,239 --> 00:58:09,440
and stuff, so that'd be quite
funny. Me who speaks too much like

957
00:58:09,559 --> 00:58:13,760
not being able to speak. But
I don't know, like because there's tons

958
00:58:13,760 --> 00:58:15,599
of people in the world that can't
speak or have like you know, our

959
00:58:15,760 --> 00:58:17,559
mute and stuff, and they find
their way. So I don't think I

960
00:58:17,719 --> 00:58:22,039
have sign language. Well yeah,
like I don't think it's like a it's

961
00:58:22,119 --> 00:58:24,239
not such a deter deterrent. That's
just like a vampire thing. Like,

962
00:58:24,239 --> 00:58:28,320
would I want to now live that
long and see loved ones die? I

963
00:58:28,360 --> 00:58:31,679
don't know, that's a that's an
Originals question taking it. I'm not taking

964
00:58:31,679 --> 00:58:36,199
that deal. You're staying as a
regular Kirklum right now. Yeah, I'll

965
00:58:36,199 --> 00:58:37,840
take I'll take the limited lifetime.
Well, I'll love you kirk Clum.

966
00:58:37,880 --> 00:58:42,000
Sorry, I'm taking the deal.
You're taking the two geek first though.

967
00:58:42,119 --> 00:58:45,280
We gotta find something else, you
see the end of the end of the

968
00:58:45,320 --> 00:58:50,440
time. Yeah, we're just gonna
make making years. We'll make some badass

969
00:58:50,480 --> 00:58:55,519
silent films, you know, So
anything else any other points before I get

970
00:58:55,559 --> 00:59:02,440
the trivia and final ratings, thinks. So I like seeing the donkeys and

971
00:59:02,599 --> 00:59:07,159
like their their war garb, like
being like basically the pack mules for the

972
00:59:07,239 --> 00:59:10,239
soldiers. It was just a cool
image of them, like wearing the helmets

973
00:59:10,559 --> 00:59:15,039
they got like some scout ones with
just just the gun I don't know,

974
00:59:15,280 --> 00:59:20,639
like ammo packs and in their back
and having them as like the ones like

975
00:59:20,719 --> 00:59:23,360
reloading like the giant heavy machine guns. Like it was just a cool little

976
00:59:23,440 --> 00:59:28,480
mixture. It makes me just you
know, think of the possibilities of like

977
00:59:28,519 --> 00:59:30,960
an RTS planning of the Apes games
where we have a factions girl like that.

978
00:59:30,960 --> 00:59:36,239
That would just be so fun to
see those images. And I remember

979
00:59:36,239 --> 00:59:38,920
thee I remember the trailers too,
and the apes were fighting the apes,

980
00:59:38,920 --> 00:59:40,760
and I was like, what the
fuck's going on? I really liked that

981
00:59:40,880 --> 00:59:45,320
aspect of because it's one It just
like makes sense. These people were for

982
00:59:45,400 --> 00:59:49,519
Coba, they wore they got killed. But that's just something it just again

983
00:59:49,559 --> 00:59:52,639
adds more like more dread to like
there's other apes now against you, working

984
00:59:52,639 --> 00:59:55,960
for the humans, like fuck,
like we can't even like like we go

985
00:59:57,000 --> 01:00:00,280
to war with Coba's people and then
we break bread, like what what ever

986
01:00:00,320 --> 01:00:01,199
that happened? Let's figure it out? Like, No, there's apes that

987
01:00:01,239 --> 01:00:06,159
are actively whether it's winter, whether
it's uh Donkey can't remember his full name

988
01:00:06,199 --> 01:00:09,880
there, but I'm sure that wasn't
his real name. That's his name,

989
01:00:09,960 --> 01:00:13,400
that was his name in the movie. No, but I mean like that

990
01:00:13,480 --> 01:00:15,840
wasn't his name before, Like was
he read donkey when he was with the

991
01:00:15,840 --> 01:00:19,639
apes? Oh, I don't know, we never see that. That's That's

992
01:00:19,639 --> 01:00:22,360
what I meant. My real name, it's red Donkey. I just don't

993
01:00:22,400 --> 01:00:27,159
like call him Red Donkey. It
feels disrespectful, you know. But yeah,

994
01:00:27,400 --> 01:00:29,840
coward, he betrayed his own race. Come on, we can call

995
01:00:29,920 --> 01:00:31,719
him Red Donkey. Yeah, but
then he fucking blewed that guy out with

996
01:00:31,800 --> 01:00:37,440
the you know RBG yeah character.
So yeah, I really like that aspect

997
01:00:37,440 --> 01:00:39,920
because it's just there's something unerving about
it to see the apes on the other

998
01:00:39,960 --> 01:00:43,960
side with the humans taking orders again
killing other apes, and they do that

999
01:00:43,960 --> 01:00:45,519
with the Red Donkey one point.
Its great when they're invading and he just

1000
01:00:45,519 --> 01:00:49,920
sees all these apes getting killed and
he's finally clicking and I'm like, well,

1001
01:00:50,480 --> 01:00:53,519
maybe I made some mistakes here,
and even Caesar's like once there once

1002
01:00:53,559 --> 01:00:58,400
were gone like your next like,
and I like, it makes complete sense.

1003
01:00:58,400 --> 01:01:00,239
They're not going to keep you around, like he will eventually kill you.

1004
01:01:00,360 --> 01:01:06,719
So no, I agree. I
love that dynamic of having like it

1005
01:01:06,760 --> 01:01:09,800
should be the apes are family sticking
together, but you know they they were

1006
01:01:09,840 --> 01:01:15,199
with Coba and now they're finding some
sort of alliance with the humans. So

1007
01:01:15,760 --> 01:01:20,039
it's it's it's pretty twisted in the
sense of like you think you can trust

1008
01:01:20,199 --> 01:01:25,400
the ones, especially like Caesar gave
these apes like sentience, like like he

1009
01:01:25,599 --> 01:01:31,280
is the one that administered like like
the or I guess not all the apes,

1010
01:01:31,280 --> 01:01:34,400
but at least the ones in the
zoos, he was giving them the

1011
01:01:34,960 --> 01:01:37,199
little syringe to to make them smarter. So there you go. I guess

1012
01:01:37,239 --> 01:01:42,239
it's not directly him that that was
the one that gave them all what they

1013
01:01:42,280 --> 01:01:45,440
have, but still kind of because
he was, he led them out and

1014
01:01:45,679 --> 01:01:52,280
you're in rallied the forces. So
yeah, I think his little dialogue was

1015
01:01:52,280 --> 01:01:55,280
was pretty good of just him throwing
these little jabs out to just kind of

1016
01:01:55,480 --> 01:02:00,000
sway him back over to the light
side. Yeah, you let them call

1017
01:02:00,119 --> 01:02:08,280
you donkey like the matter fucking idiot. It's red doggy actually. According to

1018
01:02:08,280 --> 01:02:14,119
Matt Reeves, the name of the
group rebelling humans are the Alpha and Omega,

1019
01:02:14,159 --> 01:02:16,599
a reference to the bomb, Mune
a reference to the bomb. The

1020
01:02:16,719 --> 01:02:21,480
mutants warshipped and beneath the Planet Apes. Their logo of their hammets of flake

1021
01:02:21,480 --> 01:02:24,360
matches the original logo on the bomb. So get ready came with Planet Apes.

1022
01:02:24,400 --> 01:02:30,079
They're coming back. You know,
I'll fucking Disney Fox Searchlight with whoever

1023
01:02:30,079 --> 01:02:32,639
you are. If you guys go
with the Mune route, I trust trust

1024
01:02:32,679 --> 01:02:36,360
me, you're gonna fucking fail and
great on that one. Let's let's let's

1025
01:02:36,440 --> 01:02:39,159
leave the mutants and the atomic bomb
in the bass. Let's let's not do

1026
01:02:39,280 --> 01:02:43,639
that. I talked about the water, I talk about bad apes. Close.

1027
01:02:44,880 --> 01:02:49,519
Let's see when Maurice speaks to the
human child with the new name Nova

1028
01:02:49,840 --> 01:02:52,199
Nova. The dialogue was the actual
voice of Charlton Heston. It had been

1029
01:02:52,239 --> 01:02:57,480
electronically altered, but it's still clearly
recognizable, which makes sense because when he

1030
01:02:57,559 --> 01:03:00,519
did talk, I was like,
this doesn't sound like how Maurice talk usually.

1031
01:03:00,559 --> 01:03:02,000
He was like much deeper than that
moment, it was different, And

1032
01:03:02,079 --> 01:03:06,760
yeah, it was a remixed version
of Heston's voice. So always great that

1033
01:03:06,840 --> 01:03:08,800
Heston somehow like they're always find a
way to bring him back, because you

1034
01:03:08,800 --> 01:03:13,079
know, it was just like this
is Matt Reeve's trilogy. That was Charlton

1035
01:03:13,119 --> 01:03:15,760
Hessen's play on the apes, you
know. So it's so we got to

1036
01:03:15,840 --> 01:03:20,559
keep consistent here. In October twenty
sixteen, it was announced to be a

1037
01:03:20,559 --> 01:03:23,519
fourth Ace film, So we were
almost a decade away from when they announced

1038
01:03:23,639 --> 01:03:27,800
Kingdom to it releasing, which is
crazy, awesto. We had strikes,

1039
01:03:27,800 --> 01:03:30,440
some pandemic, lots of stuff,
but still like they announced that, well

1040
01:03:30,599 --> 01:03:34,119
fuck, I didn't even put two
and together. They announced that before this

1041
01:03:34,159 --> 01:03:37,679
movie even came out before Fox was
bought, because remember like a couple of

1042
01:03:37,760 --> 01:03:40,000
years later Fox gets bought, so
they announced a fourth one even before,

1043
01:03:40,039 --> 01:03:43,960
so probably them getting bought as well
had a lot to do with that.

1044
01:03:44,039 --> 01:03:46,840
So didn't you put two and two
together? Which is crazy because and we

1045
01:03:46,960 --> 01:03:51,280
always mentioned as we drive by it, but uh, this was filmed in

1046
01:03:51,440 --> 01:03:54,360
Hope, British Columbia and the Othella
Tunnels, which is pretty crazy. I

1047
01:03:54,480 --> 01:03:58,280
never thought about. Yeah, so
we drive by there all the time.

1048
01:03:58,320 --> 01:04:01,119
So yeah, I'm excited to go
back there. Look for where we read

1049
01:04:01,159 --> 01:04:04,599
Donkey was hanging out and everything.
Yeah, just find a gorilla skeleton there.

1050
01:04:05,000 --> 01:04:08,639
Yeah, Woody Harrelson is still there. You guys like apes? No,

1051
01:04:08,880 --> 01:04:13,400
okay, fuck y'all. Toby Kettle
had expressed interest in reprising his performance

1052
01:04:13,480 --> 01:04:15,920
as the Other as other character,
or reprising his role as Coba or other

1053
01:04:16,000 --> 01:04:21,440
characters. Plans to include Coba in
a large role were abandoned early originally,

1054
01:04:21,480 --> 01:04:24,920
which I did not know this.
If you stayed until the very end of

1055
01:04:24,960 --> 01:04:28,119
don Plant Apes, you hear Coba
was breathing. I didn't know that.

1056
01:04:29,360 --> 01:04:32,480
I never stay familiar, So I
guess they like whatever We did that to

1057
01:04:32,519 --> 01:04:35,639
give a tiny crack of possible that
we could revive cobD if we wanted.

1058
01:04:36,039 --> 01:04:42,400
It was very early Spitball. Well, he just like falls in water,

1059
01:04:42,480 --> 01:04:45,559
right like it was like a fire
pit. The building was on fire.

1060
01:04:45,559 --> 01:04:50,480
He felt like ten thousand feet but
he fell, but he fell in a

1061
01:04:50,559 --> 01:04:55,679
darkness tailor he falls in the darkness
that could be anywhere. Right. He

1062
01:04:55,960 --> 01:04:59,360
came back the same way. Come
on, everybody comes back from that sec

1063
01:05:00,360 --> 01:05:02,719
We realized there was nothing more to
do with Koba, certainly nothing that would

1064
01:05:02,840 --> 01:05:05,079
see what we've done the last story, but we knew we wanted to keep

1065
01:05:05,119 --> 01:05:09,480
him alive as idea and playing in
that reality what happened in the last film.

1066
01:05:09,559 --> 01:05:12,320
So and then they just explained what
they did there. So I think

1067
01:05:12,360 --> 01:05:15,079
that's a good idea. I think
that's exactly that's the restraint you need you

1068
01:05:15,119 --> 01:05:19,559
have a great film. I get
I definitely understand of this is fantastic character.

1069
01:05:19,719 --> 01:05:21,760
What more could we do with them? And to sit back and go,

1070
01:05:21,800 --> 01:05:25,679
you know what, they're really not
much more, but let's utilize them

1071
01:05:25,679 --> 01:05:27,679
this way. I think it's perfect. It's very much like kind of like

1072
01:05:27,719 --> 01:05:30,679
what they did with Killmonger and Black
Panther two. It's like exact same thing,

1073
01:05:30,760 --> 01:05:33,599
right, So I am very happy, Like I don't know what Coble

1074
01:05:33,679 --> 01:05:36,559
were brought here, Like I guess
I could see some version of Coba working

1075
01:05:36,599 --> 01:05:40,639
with the colonel, but like I
don't know if I uh, I don't

1076
01:05:40,639 --> 01:05:43,159
know if I need that. I
think this was the right call. I

1077
01:05:43,239 --> 01:05:46,599
like the trippy mind sequences, Yeah, Caesar just seeing him a different like

1078
01:05:46,679 --> 01:05:49,639
whether it's a dream sequence or when
he's just tripping out. It's a lot

1079
01:05:49,679 --> 01:05:54,800
more effective than having this him come
back like a terminator. He's like half

1080
01:05:54,920 --> 01:05:59,280
robotic and there's whatever they go on
already to write, like where would he

1081
01:05:59,320 --> 01:06:01,199
fit in? It's the movie with
like the other troops, like the the

1082
01:06:01,199 --> 01:06:06,480
White Soldiers, you know, and
other snow garb. Yeah, he's piloting

1083
01:06:06,559 --> 01:06:13,239
the helicopters, leading the full charge. Let's see. The final shot was

1084
01:06:13,280 --> 01:06:16,039
originally Caesar's eyes closing and for the
last time, then cut to blat After

1085
01:06:16,119 --> 01:06:19,480
discussing the scene with any Circus Matt
reasons Circus Society, the audience need to

1086
01:06:19,480 --> 01:06:28,880
see Caesar actually die. We just
decided they would add emotional and emotional resonance

1087
01:06:29,079 --> 01:06:30,440
to the scene. If Maurice spoke
the words as it would be the first

1088
01:06:30,440 --> 01:06:33,480
time the character talked. He did
say run and a few other things,

1089
01:06:33,480 --> 01:06:38,119
but really like a full sentence and
stuff. So originally that ending was just

1090
01:06:38,360 --> 01:06:43,519
very but much like the second movie
where they had original ending where it's like

1091
01:06:43,719 --> 01:06:45,800
the closed eyes and he's dead,
where this was like, well, they

1092
01:06:45,840 --> 01:06:48,480
added the Maurice speaking and him dying, So it seems like the endings they

1093
01:06:48,559 --> 01:06:55,079
add a little more onto these eight
films. Let's see it. For the

1094
01:06:55,119 --> 01:06:58,039
last scene when they filmed Caesars Dying, he said, pretty much everyone was

1095
01:06:58,079 --> 01:07:01,800
on set and weeping openly for this
moment. Big moment of this was because

1096
01:07:01,920 --> 01:07:04,280
during the filming of this movie and
he serves his mother passed away and that

1097
01:07:04,400 --> 01:07:06,840
Ree's father passed away. So I
guess it was just like a very wo

1098
01:07:08,119 --> 01:07:10,880
The last day of that set was
a very emotional because it was just like

1099
01:07:10,920 --> 01:07:14,320
a lot of things that happen your
filming character's death. They had some big

1100
01:07:14,360 --> 01:07:18,840
deaths. So Matt Reeve said Malcolm
would not return because he was killed by

1101
01:07:18,840 --> 01:07:24,199
the Colonel. An indirect reference to
Malcolm and his family from the film was

1102
01:07:24,239 --> 01:07:27,679
cut in a conversation between Caesar and
the Colonel. According to Reeves, that

1103
01:07:27,719 --> 01:07:30,960
Malcolm was killed by the Colonel trying
to persuade him that the Caesar, that

1104
01:07:30,960 --> 01:07:33,960
Caesar and the Apes could be trusted, and much like the Franko thing.

1105
01:07:34,000 --> 01:07:36,280
I wish they cut that. I
wish I would have liked the same way

1106
01:07:36,280 --> 01:07:39,960
we now like now, I know
it hadken, but I would have liked

1107
01:07:39,960 --> 01:07:43,119
to know, Okay, Will likely
got sick and died if there was like

1108
01:07:43,159 --> 01:07:45,079
a little ad at all. This
guy also killed Malcolm, and like,

1109
01:07:45,119 --> 01:07:48,079
fuck, what a piece of shit
character. So I'm I wish they kept

1110
01:07:48,079 --> 01:07:54,440
the reference where are you guys on
that? I'm okay with the being not

1111
01:07:54,559 --> 01:07:58,239
said. Would it have been like
the Colonel also found Will and assassinated him,

1112
01:07:58,239 --> 01:08:00,920
and then he also found Malcolm.
No welcome. Will died from sickness.

1113
01:08:01,039 --> 01:08:03,440
You know, It's like Will's the
one that started this all gotta take

1114
01:08:03,599 --> 01:08:06,719
I found him, he was sick, and I shot him. Yeah,

1115
01:08:06,840 --> 01:08:12,480
I think that would have been interesting
to see. I like when movies tie

1116
01:08:12,480 --> 01:08:16,239
in deeply together with little things like
that little little Easter egg deep leading.

1117
01:08:16,319 --> 01:08:19,560
Oh yeah, I think that would
have been cool. Finally, at the

1118
01:08:19,640 --> 01:08:23,479
end of the battle for the planet
Apes, the camera comes into a close

1119
01:08:23,560 --> 01:08:26,439
up on a face of caesar statue
with a single tier that rolls down the

1120
01:08:26,439 --> 01:08:29,159
eye of the left statue. At
the end of this film, close with

1121
01:08:29,199 --> 01:08:31,760
Caesar's face on the verge of his
own death, a single tier rolls down

1122
01:08:31,800 --> 01:08:35,800
his left eye, and finally in
saying that you gotta give credit and reason

1123
01:08:35,800 --> 01:08:39,439
the crew. I feel like,
with you know, everything we talk about

1124
01:08:39,479 --> 01:08:43,680
Heston, that's been one consistent thing
I'd say from this trilogy is they were

1125
01:08:43,680 --> 01:08:46,159
always eluding and giving nice little tributes
and shout outs to the films. Even

1126
01:08:46,239 --> 01:08:48,560
Battle, which we think is like
a very meh film. I think we

1127
01:08:48,560 --> 01:08:50,880
were all like, oh, yeah, it's fine. The last shot of

1128
01:08:50,920 --> 01:08:55,000
that film being the tier on Caesars
left die being the last shot this one.

1129
01:08:55,039 --> 01:08:57,159
It's like, man, you can
tell the people that made this they

1130
01:08:57,159 --> 01:09:00,239
were Apes fans, they love this
franchise, or they cared enough to go

1131
01:09:00,359 --> 01:09:02,199
research, and that's like, because
that's that's to me the East Eggs where

1132
01:09:02,199 --> 01:09:04,319
I like where it's like that doesn't
take you on the movie at all.

1133
01:09:04,319 --> 01:09:08,199
It's just a cool tying to the
thing. And even it was the same

1134
01:09:08,279 --> 01:09:11,720
universe, then you can oh,
that's why. That's that fucking statue has

1135
01:09:11,760 --> 01:09:16,680
a like a tearan or whatever.
Right, So I'd lost some words there,

1136
01:09:16,800 --> 01:09:24,279
but it's like whaty Harrelson there for? It's the getting Yeah, some

1137
01:09:24,359 --> 01:09:30,000
breaks, but yeah, I will
go. I came in here actually thinking

1138
01:09:30,039 --> 01:09:36,640
I was gonna drop another ten here, hopeful. Yeah, but I'll go

1139
01:09:36,840 --> 01:09:40,560
just to shy under. I'll go
nine point five because there's some things that

1140
01:09:40,600 --> 01:09:43,960
I was like a little like mixer
unsure on. But then the more we

1141
01:09:43,960 --> 01:09:45,640
talk about, go, okay,
this is where I was. So even

1142
01:09:45,640 --> 01:09:47,880
then, I think I could still
even make a case for being a ten

1143
01:09:47,920 --> 01:09:51,119
because there's so much good craftsmanship here, and there's I like the story and

1144
01:09:51,159 --> 01:09:56,039
the journey I'm find most of choice. But I'll go a nine point five.

1145
01:09:56,079 --> 01:10:01,119
So that's where I am. A
tearfield. I'm trying to remember what

1146
01:10:01,560 --> 01:10:03,479
you know. I know back in
the day, I gave it a ten

1147
01:10:03,560 --> 01:10:08,039
out of ten. I'm gonna do
it again. I'm gonna give it a

1148
01:10:08,039 --> 01:10:11,600
ten out of ten. Boom,
it squares up. It's even saving with

1149
01:10:11,680 --> 01:10:15,079
that other the previous film. I
think that it just kind of some days

1150
01:10:15,159 --> 01:10:17,680
I really think about where I would
place them, but I just they're both

1151
01:10:17,880 --> 01:10:20,159
on par with each other, and
when I do the rank days, I'm

1152
01:10:20,199 --> 01:10:25,680
really gonna have to just like sit
down and just fucking think hard on what

1153
01:10:25,720 --> 01:10:29,680
I'm gonna do for that ranking.
But yeah, this movie's just it's great

1154
01:10:29,720 --> 01:10:32,079
and I just think that the uh, the way it ends is great,

1155
01:10:32,159 --> 01:10:35,119
and it's just it's such such a
such a journey, such a journey,

1156
01:10:35,199 --> 01:10:40,199
man. I just love that.
Like said, some days I really think

1157
01:10:40,199 --> 01:10:42,680
about the ranking. I just wonder, like what inspires you to be?

1158
01:10:42,840 --> 01:10:45,319
Like you sit down, like,
man, what am I gonna do with

1159
01:10:45,359 --> 01:10:47,880
these rankings of the Apes films?
But luckily we will be doing that as

1160
01:10:47,920 --> 01:10:51,920
a full episode, mister pass or
fund rating. Final reading for this one,

1161
01:10:53,039 --> 01:10:56,520
close out this little mini chapter before
we opened it back up for the

1162
01:10:56,520 --> 01:11:00,560
next chapter. I'm gonna give it
eight out of ten on on this viewing.

1163
01:11:00,720 --> 01:11:05,199
There's too many little things that that
brought down my overall enjoyment. But

1164
01:11:05,479 --> 01:11:10,920
I still think this is a good
emotional ride, especially you know, to

1165
01:11:11,079 --> 01:11:15,520
end Caesar's part to play in this
story, I think it definitely is satisfying

1166
01:11:15,560 --> 01:11:20,439
in that sense. And to just
conclude like where our Apes are after the

1167
01:11:20,479 --> 01:11:25,560
war, I think it's I think
it's definitely a solid enough ending there and

1168
01:11:26,279 --> 01:11:29,640
very interested to what's gonna happen with
Kingdom now that I'm all caught up.

1169
01:11:29,680 --> 01:11:32,319
There's been a there's been a good
retro. There's been a lot of funny

1170
01:11:32,600 --> 01:11:36,000
moments so far, and definitely a
top tier one. Yeah, yeah,

1171
01:11:36,239 --> 01:11:40,399
but no, it's been good,
good movies. I think, good conversations

1172
01:11:40,399 --> 01:11:44,239
about like real life issues. We
had some good meme and Joe's crad along

1173
01:11:44,279 --> 01:11:45,960
the way and yeah, let's just
hope Kingdom planning Apes. Like even though

1174
01:11:46,359 --> 01:11:49,119
like you're lesser on I think there's
other people lesser on this one. They

1175
01:11:49,159 --> 01:11:54,640
got they got a high bar to
follow, and I don't know, I

1176
01:11:54,720 --> 01:11:57,920
never watched divergent movies. For me, that's nothing that I thought was like,

1177
01:11:57,960 --> 01:12:00,680
this guy should direct Apes. So
again, as I said, as

1178
01:12:00,680 --> 01:12:03,319
well, this is the guy that's
directing Zelda. So for me, this

1179
01:12:03,359 --> 01:12:09,159
movie has to have some goods because
I feel like Wes Ball but remember after

1180
01:12:09,279 --> 01:12:12,399
he's directing a live action Zelda movie, it's Kingdom Plannet. So it's like,

1181
01:12:12,439 --> 01:12:14,439
to me, it's like if this
sucks, it's like and this dude

1182
01:12:14,439 --> 01:12:16,680
doing Zelda like so it's like there's
to me there's a lot writing on this.

1183
01:12:16,720 --> 01:12:19,920
I I for me, what I'm
hoping is it's at least the quality

1184
01:12:19,960 --> 01:12:23,479
of Rise, and then you can
build upon that. But because I'm not

1185
01:12:23,520 --> 01:12:26,119
expecting you to be Matt Reeve,
because Matt Reeves is like I think he's

1186
01:12:26,159 --> 01:12:29,319
like, you know, floating the
ether between these films and the Batman to

1187
01:12:29,359 --> 01:12:31,600
be like something special. But you
know, you gotta you at least gotta

1188
01:12:32,840 --> 01:12:35,560
match it somewhat. So we will
see, we'll be there. There'll be

1189
01:12:35,560 --> 01:12:38,880
a spoilers of you at some point. I think ours is going to be

1190
01:12:38,920 --> 01:12:41,560
a day earlier. We got a
screening, so look out for that.

1191
01:12:41,720 --> 01:12:45,159
And uh yeah, thank you everyone
that checked out this retro let us know,

1192
01:12:45,199 --> 01:12:46,000
and we're not done. We'll do
the review and then we'll do a

1193
01:12:46,039 --> 01:12:48,880
rankings. Episode'll rank the movies,
characters, villains, all that stuff.

1194
01:12:49,239 --> 01:12:53,039
And I promise you it'll not be
born. But
