Review
This amazing collector's item is an individually numbered limited edition Ape head containing 12 DVDs within a digistack, which slots into the back of the head!
Planet Of The Apes: 35th Anniversary Edition (2 Discs): Astronaut Taylor crash lands on a distant planet ruled by apes who use a primitive race of humans for experimentation and sport. Soon Taylor finds himself among the hunted, his life in the hands of a benevolent chimpanzee scientist...
Winner of an Honorary Academy Award for Outstanding Make-up Achievement and nominated for two Oscars, (1968 Best Costume Design and Best Original Score) Planet of the Apes is grand entertainment from its visually arresting beginning to the chilling last moment.
(Dir. Franklin J. Schaffner, 1968, 2.35:1 Anamorphic widescreen, Dolby Digital 5.1 Surround and DTS)
Planet Of The Apes: 2001 Special Edition (2 Discs): When contact with an interstellar reconnaissance missionis lost, astronaut Leo Davidson launches a rescue mission and lands on a jungle-like planet not unlike the Earth. Following his capture by apes and subsequent escape, Leo assembles a small band of defiant humans and sympathetic apes in an attempt to re-establish contact with home but Leo must leads a rebellion against an overpowering ape force that will result in freedom or complete annihilation...
(Dir. Tim Burton, 2001, 2.35:1 Anamorphic widescreen, Dolby Digital 5.1 Surround and DTS)
Beneath The Planet Of The Apes (1 Disc): An earthling (James Franciscus) sent to find the astronauts of the original film discovers not only a world of intelligent, talking apes, but an underground cult of grotesque "humans" who are the survivors of a nuclear blast years ago. Unfortunately, these mutants worship a nuclear bomb, a weapon which not only is the centerpiece of their society, but can be detonated at any time...
(Dir. Ted Post, 1970)
Escape From The Planet Of The Apes: In the future, the Earth is ruled by a race of highly-evolved simians who supplanted humans after a nuclear holocaust. But when the ape-led Earth is threatened with total annihilation, a trio of scientists journey backwards through time in order to prevent the catastrophe. Once in the human-led world, however, they find themselves hunted by a suspicious and fearful government desirous of making them the subjects of an experiment that could alter the course of human and ape events...
(Dir. Don Taylor, 1971)
Conquest Of The Planet Of The Apes: In 1991, after an epidemic has wiped out the dog population, talking apes have become humans' favorite pets. Before long, intelligent ape Caesar convinces those of his kind to stage a massive revolt against the humans...
(Dir. J. Lee Thompson, 1972)
Battle For The Planet Of The Apes: After the collapse of human civilization, a community of intelligent apes lives in harmony with a group of humans, but a community of mutants who reside beneath a destroyed city try to conquer those whom they perceive as enemies.
(Dir. J. Lee Thompson, 1973)
Planet Of The Apes TV Series (4 Discs): After their spacecraft travels through a time warp, two astronauts (Ron Harper and James Naughton) from 1981 crash land back on Earth in the year 3085 - a time when intelligent apes rule and humans have been reduced to servants or pets. Captured by the apes and sentenced to death, they are saved by a curious chimpanzee named Galen (Roddy McDowall). But now all three are on the run, trying to keep one step ahead of the gorilla army led by General Urko (Mark Lenard), who is determined to kill the renegades!
All 14 episodes (including 'The Liberator', which never aired during the show's original 1974 run) are compiled on this 4 DVD set.
Behind The Planet Of The Apes: bonus documentary.

That actually looks pretty cool. I'd wait til it came down in price though, but it definitely made my "own at some point" list.

I loved the first two of the original films, but absolutely hated the Marky Mark crap from a couple of years back

I actually thought the remake was ok. I expected it to suck going in so I think that helped my overall outlook on it. Its one of the few blind dvd purchases I've made, my son convinced me to get it. I thought the end was a decent twist.

Lol. Shows how people differ, the end was kind of what totally ruined it for me, especially when compared to the original films classic end.......

Its all perspective I guess. Some movies shouldn't be remade, some could use a modernization. I thought Apes was one that could use a contemporary remake. I thought I would hate the remake of Dawn of the Dead, but its now one of my favorite movies.

Its kind of like when a band covers a classic song. Sometimes it shouldn't be done, other times it should. I've found covers of 80s songs I dug like "Come on Eileen" (No Doubt) and "99 Red Balloons" (Goldfinger) that I enjoyed as much as the originals, but please keep the Bee Gees versions of the Sgt Pepper album away from me.

Perspective, opinion, etc.
