Kingdom of the Planet Of The Apes | May 10, 2024 | Wes Ball to develop and direct

This looks awesome. I can not wait. At the same time not sure the GA will bite in big enough numbers to go forward with another trilogy unless they kept  the budget down. Fingers crossed.

I had no faith in this, and now seeing how the apes look worse, less so. If the movie turns out to be generic as it appears in the trailer, it won't have much critical support, I guess.

This was my favorite new trailer we got yesterday; does a great job selling the plot after the first trailer was mostly "hey, back to the Ape Planet!" I think at the box office this can land closer to Dawn than War, mostly because the timeline jump means this is a semi-reboot that doesn't require knowing anything other than the broad basics of the franchise, and it looks like a pretty straight-forward adventure flick with an easy-to-understand plot. Wish Andy Serkis could have returned in a new role though, the way Roddy McDowell moved from playing Cornelius to Caesar in the original series.

I think this film looks pretty good, but it's a huge ask for the general audience to care about a cast of primarily CGI monkeys.

[Claire of Themyscira]

I think it was a good trailer! Excited to see it.

As opposed to CGI blue people?

Just keep in mind that a few weeks ago he was hearing that Disney was high on the movie because of positive test screenings. What is the truth? Maybe this was just one bad screening that means nothing in the end.

EmpireCity said it is great and Sneider said it was bad, it's like Godzilla v Kong of compulsive liars nobody should believe.

I think this time we should believe Sneider. There's also an user on Letterboxd who claims he's seen it. I think he's Alan Alda's grandson. I see no reason why he'd lie about seeing it. Check his rating https://letterboxd.com/jakealdacoffey/films/

Sneider is more reliable, so I'll take Sneider's word on it. He was right about The Marvels.

Yep and he got shat on for that. Vindication must be sweet. He was also right about Mando and Grogu (Mando movie by his report) being the first SW movie to get made and released. I don't remember his misses (he must have some too all scoopers do) but it's been hit after hit lately.

Well, he apparently saw a screening of the movie. He's as reliable as Jeff Sneider in his reporting the KOTPOTA sucks

They’re both hacks who just say anything for engagement. I don’t think I need to explain why Empire is crazy. As for Sneider I remember he said the strikes were all but over in October…obviously that wasn’t true.

 

The film is only a few months away, we don’t need to hang on their every word.

At least the letterboxd user apparently saw the movie.

Look, we have three more months of this. Can we not do these proclamations? Especially since we all know how fickle test screenings can be and how impossible it is to decipher this stuff.
