War for the Planet of the Apes - 7/14/17

Looks epic. Give me all the Woody Harrelson.

Leaving for a short dinner and then this movie at 9:00 tonight with the wife and daughters. I'll report back, but this looks good.

Oh yeah, I saw this Thursday night. It was fucking amazing.

Best CGI on-screen since Jurassic Park.

I watched Dawn again last night, but this time I finished it. It was good. This list ranks it behind Dawn. I def want to see it.

Have you seen this new batch? They take it to a whole new level.

Rise is good, Dawn is fucking fantastic, and War is just as good as Dawn. It leads into the old movies perfectly.

I didn't realize there were so many of the old ones. I've never seen the original to be honest. I'll make it a point to do soon.

I did see the Marky Mark one back in like 2001. At Fairlane actually. Interesting experience. Lots of outright mocking from the audience.

Which also means were closer to a Dr. Zaius musical.

I've seen all of the old ones, some of them multiple times. Didn't know the new ones existed.

Movie series I could never get into.

Watched the originals when I was a kid, at least three or four times each.

Loved it.

I'm watching Rise now. We'll see how long I can go. Pretty tired.

Great special effects 5star
Decent story 4 star
Satisfying ending? Maybe 3 or 4 star.

I'd definitely recommend it.

You still watch C-Span?
