I have to agree with raptorman, POTA did suck. Hell the ending sucked. It could of been a much better movie. And people who think POTA was good and JP3 was bad, they should put there head in there ass and go crawl under a rock. J/K. They should see the movie or go to a POTA page.

Apes suck. Dinos rule. I saw POTA and it sucked royally. My guess is go see Jp3. It is much better.

If there was a battle between the apes of Pota and the dinos of JP3 who would win?
The Dinos! of course.
After all how many apes does it take to kill a Poed Spinosaurus? Lots and lots of apes...

The reason I feel JP3 is better is cuz it does what it sets out to do. Deliver a fun adrenaline rush of an action movie with understandable characters, and a couple of good twists in the little plot it needed. PotA on the other hand, tried to be some revolution epic like Gladiator, Braveheart, or the 13th Warrior. (That 13th warrior reference was a joke, heh heh). The dialogue coulda been better, as well as the human characters. Still, U all can expect a sequel in 2003. That's Hollywood. Ya know what? I wonder if the PotA DVD will have the fabled 4 alternate endings?
BTW, JP Buff: Harry Potter or Lord of the Rings? Oh Mother of God! *vomits like a nobody's business*
At 12:06:29 PM on 7/30/2001, sgd goin down said:
Well, look at the bright side all. We're still $55,250,000 ahead of PotA. Plus, from all the bad reviews I've been hearing, PotA's Box Office should sink faster than an Onix on a steel raft.

Ok first and for most ,the records show that X-MEN was a opening of 74 Million so why is it not even metioned, Second off the ending to POTA was so wierd I had to exsplain it to my girl friend for about 3 hours before she finally didn't care , Jp3 on the other hand it was a great ending no future SH*t going down so thats my 2 cents on this matter.

Hey....those lines in the film when used are really corny....especially when Charleston Heston says his line....its kinda like this.."damn those humans...damn them all to hell!!" OMG how corny.,..
At 6:04:37 AM on 7/30/2001, furtim said:
"Get your paws off of me, you damned dirty humans!"
As I understand it, this is a line from the movie. Barf.
I also understand that Charlton Heston's ape character says something similar to his final line from the original, modified to fit the context. Double-barf.
Now, I've already said that I don't really care about this JP3 vs. PotA stuff. What I want to know from the people who've seen PotA is this: are those lines actually in the movie, and do they actually work in context or do they come off as unbearably lame?

Planet of the Apes was a very well done movie. I liked JP3 better, but I'm not gonna go dissing POTA. I'm not planning on seeing it again, but come on folks, it wasn't that bad. Worst part was the ending, but it sucked for JP3 too. Number One film of the summer: Shrek. Number 2: JP3. Number 3: POTA. I can't wait for Rush Hour 2. That movie's gonna kick ass.

I haven't seen PotA yet, but I plan to within the next week. I highly doubt that I will like PotA more than JP3. JP3 was just, an incredible, thrilling adventure, while PotA looks like an annoying, repetitive, stupid movie. I mean, come on, a human/ape love subplot? Come on!

It showed what was In the TLW novel left out in the movie. SPecial effects do count in a movie as well it makes the movie more creditible and realilistic. The JP Movies always Kick A$5

Although I liked both films, neither of them have any staying power whatsoever. JP3 ate up the competition it's first week at the box office, but then it dropped 56% the next weekend. POTA will do the same. Both films will have made a lot of money by the end of the year, but neither will be the biggest grossing film of the year. That honor will go to either Harry Potter or Lord of the Rings.

Having seen both JP3 and POTA <i>today</i>, all I have to say is that Marky Mark's Mad Monkey Mack left JP3 still in a wheelchair after it beat the living dogshit out of it.
Okay, maybe not that bad. But, come on. You're talking to the guy that saw the original JP 24 times in the theater, who does paleo, loves dinosaurs, and is a huge movie buff. While POTA was not the best film of the summer (my vote is to Shrek on that one), it was by far a better made film. Cinematography, plot, graphics. The acting (especially for the apes) sucked, but hey, JP3 was no Oscar winner in that catagory either. Don't say that POTA sucks until you see it, otherwise, keep your mouth closed.
Peace,
Rob
At 8:12:34 PM on 7/29/2001, Nedry1 said:
This is what I think. Parents want to see POTA because the saw it as kids, and they briong there kids. Littler kids are scared of JP3m and its still doin awesome! I wanna see JP3 2 more times (saw it twice) and I could not sit through POTA again!
At 8:10:45 PM on 7/29/2001, Jurassic_Jr said:
I don't know why everyone is so fn impressed over POTA opening when JP3 made $80 + million...ie more than those damn apes...everybody always just goes by the weekend gross when JP3 actually made more than Apes in its first week! And JP3 still made great this weekend, no movie makes as much in the second week of release as in its first...The Apes will have a big drop off too and JP3 is a big hit!!! Plus it still kicked Julia's Sweethearts ass again this week!!!! One more thing this is a Jurassic Park board NOT a POTA board, so those that always go on about the dumbass Apes needs to take a fn hike...i'm so sick of hearing about it!!!!

Er, huge amounts of money
At 7:39:24 PM on 7/29/2001, Mattman said:
jpreal, how much money a film makes does not decide whether it's a good film or not. Memento and Moulin Rouge were the best films I've seen this year and their gross won't come anywhere near JP3 or POTA. I happened to like JP3 a great deal as well, but I went and saw it tons of times in the first week, just like everyone else. That's simply the kind of film that it is. Everyone MUST SEE it the first few days of its release and naturally that attitude dies down the second week. The problem with these films is that they make HUGE their first weekend, and they cannot possibly come even close to reproducing those numbers in the second, especially when yet another big film is released.

Anybody remember this big movie, called Pearl Harbor? Yeah, it took me a few minutes to think of it too. Opening weekend? Huge. Overall gross? Not that exciting for such a big movie. Same for POTA, just you wait.
At 6:41:01 PM on 7/29/2001, jpreal said:
I don’t think Planet of the Apes or Jurassic Park 3 has staying power. Jurassic park 3 already fell 56% this weekend, and Planet of the Apes will do the same next weekend. One reason being that they are not very good films. Planet of The Apes will with out a doubt surpass Jurassic Park 3, but it will not be the top film of the summer.
You see, you can watch Jurassic Park 3 as many times as you like, but remember that no one else is doing the same. Let’s just be happy that it did the money it did to justify an another.

At 6:18:27 PM on 7/29/2001, spino2000 said:
here's my take:
POTA will have less staying power. it grabbed Burton's fans and scifi fans but the movie is not good and much less shocking and intriguing than the original. yet, there's an entire generation of kids who have not seen the originals and who are fascinated by a primates world.
However, JP III might start to disappoint too because it's no rated R! if it had been Rated and really gorry and frightening, without humour ( ok, one joke allowed ), given the huge fan base of JP who are now 17+, I pretty much imagine it would have done better or hold better over this weekend. it's still a PG13 movie.... sigh. I hope JPIV will be a R movie ( which still allows PG13 kids to go with parents)

And by the way, the theatres were still packed when I saw JP3 yesterday. I had trouble finding seats for my brother and myself, but luckily there were two seats empty, dead center of the theatre. Greatest showing I've ever had.

I cant believe somebody liking it. It had no plot! I dont even think it had an editor.

I've seen JP3 six times so far(I'm shooting for fifteen), and after seeing previews and hearing what people have said about POTA, I highly, HIGHLY doubt I'll be seeing it anytime soon(if ever). It just doesn't seem as fun or exciting as JP3.

Alright, I saw PotA...and I am a big movie buff and all i can say is what a piece of crap. The make up effects were great but plot wise....there was nothing interesting....JP3 was way way better..and I'm not saying that cause im a JP Fan...I'm saying it cause it was truly a better movie...the characters were better developed in JP3 along with the plot...PotA's plot was corny..and really never went anywhere...Anyways..i will be seeing JP3 again tommorow making it my third time...so it will get my money..PotA...what a waste.

JP3 is a good movie. POTA is not. It's very simple. I've seen JP3 three times allready. I've seen POTA once, and I will NOT see it again. So if other people do the same, JP3 will gross more than POTA. simple.

I agree with furtim and JurassicRaptor. Who cares what grosses more. If people pay to see crap like PoTA, that is there beef. Jurassic Park 3 still and will always be a better movie.
At 5:37:27 PM on 7/29/2001, furtim said:
Does it really matter what movie grosses more?
Honestly, what's with this thing? Tracking JP3's gross makes sense, because we want to judge the probability of another sequel (read: very good), but why do any of us care about PotA?
Maybe PotA is good, maybe not. I'm not going to see it, either way. Not because it's "competing" with JP3 (whatever), but because my dad, the biggest PotA fan I know, said it was rather on the suckage side. That's all *I* need to hear about it.

Planet of The Apes was decent. It was not great but it was decent, and I think the ending actually did save it. Judging by this weekends gross, there is going to be a sequel. Is it better than Jurassic park 3? No. Is Jurassic Park 3 better than Planet of the Apes? No. I will say this though; Planet of the apes had a better plot Than Jurassic Park 3. Jurassic Park 3 unfortunately did not have one.

Such biased opinions..I think this proves special effects dont make a movie. JP3 had the better effects, but really the plot was just another excuse to get back to the island. POTA's plot was much more interesting.

Amazing? that's $22.5 million was made in three days. while Jurassic Park 3 opening day was $19 million. That's decent but not really good. As for the Lost World, Regarless of the Holiday weekend, it still drop less than Jurassic Park 3. Meaning, that it's more well liked than Jurassic Park 3. If it was as bad as some of you like to make it, it would not have made the money it did.
I liked Jurassic Park 3, but in my opinion, it not as good as the first two.
The gross of the movie has already proven that.
Let's just be gratefull that it did well to justify a fourth.
