Episode 80: Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes

GO BANANAS AND LISTEN TO OUR NEW EPISODE!!!! Missing “APE-ril” by just THIS much….the fourth film/reboot of the reboot of the Tim-Burton inspired remake of the seminal 70’s smash Planet of the Apes roars into theatres, and Emcee and Cupcake have a front row seat to the apocalyptic zoo that is “Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes”. The Wes Ball directed film hails CAESAR…the Moses and central character of the original trilogy…but brings us new ape characters - some cute and bumbling, and others terrifying and sounding like sexy Kevin Durand. Is this a Kingdom worth visiting or does it belong in the dung heap of anthropomorphic, sign language using apes like that other adventure film with Amy the Gorilla.    For plusses, Alex takes a bite out of a new website, and Cupcake talks about a game-changing toy invention (just make sure your kids are NOT listening to that section).  Stay tuned for Q & Alex when the Boys talk cell phones, first crushes, what to do with $10,000 bucks and where to spend it, and politics (Editor: This is Beanie. Notice I stayed away from recording? It’s because politics don’t belong on movie podcasts. Thank you and fill my F%^KING bowl!) STOP APE-ING AROUND AND GET US IN YOUR DAMN DIRTY EARS!
