083 - From Chimpan-A to Chimpan-Z

Our fourth ill-advised movie franchise marathon. While perturbing our nervous systems in order to open our third eyes to the fully unveiled truth, we viewed all five of the original Planet of the Apes films, leaving behind commentary tracks for each of them* in our wake. Here we discuss the viewing experience and the franchise on the whole.*Only four of the five commentaries survived due to an unfortunate SD card deletion of the commentary on the fourth film in the franchise, the pretty excellent prison-based Conquest of the Planet of the Apes. Also, check out our newly updated YouTube channel for the hell of it.General RecommendationsJD's Recommendation: All the Planet of the Apes moviesJNM's Recommendation: All the Planet of the Apes movies (except the Tim Burton one)Further Reading, Viewing, ListeningEvery Planet of the Apes movie has a pointed message about life in 2020Continuity of the Planet of the Apes!
