I'm kinda confused as to why we haven't gotten any books or comics related to Kingdom yet. Dawn and War had novelizations and prequel novels. Rise, Dawn, and War all had comic adaptations, and there are a plethora of comics set in between those movies. Kingdom came out 9 months ago and we haven't gotten ANYTHING from it, and I don't believe anything has been announced.

I’ve gotta say escape of the planet of the apes. To me this is the best balance of either human and ape storyline. Maybe controversial but I feel having too many nonverbal of either leads to really dull storytelling which both beneath and battle have in spades.

I think the opening is a fun inverse of the first movie premise and I think it has the most satisfying ending.

No judgement towards people who like any movie

I had this idea for a tv show or maybe even a video game where the story follows a group of survivors who are immune at the start of the simian flu outbreak we would get to see the outbreak from a human perspective as the world slowly falls apart. We would see society slowly fall into chaos and as the show progresses the disease spreads world wide and violence and unrest break out and eventually a full government collapse funny thing is the story wouldn't even have to have apes in it. It could be a completely stand alone project so even people who aren’t big planet of the apes fans could enjoy it but I guess for reasons the survivors could meet a talking ape and team up as they try to survive the overgrowing chaos I personally believe a show like this would be very popular with most people especially post covid as the concept of a global pandemic is much more relevant now then when the movies first came out let me know what you think of this idea and if you have any ideas of your own.

Also can we talk about how amazing the posters are for all of them?

Hey guys! It’s been a while since I last posted here, but I wanted to share my thoughts on the latest Planet of the Apes movie, Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes.

While I enjoyed some aspects of the movie, I couldn’t shake the feeling that it was a bit rushed. For example, the societal dynamics within Noa's tribe felt underdeveloped, and I didn’t feel like I could fully grasp the motivations behind Proximus’ character as deeply as I hoped.

The overall feeling the movie left me with was like jumping onto a train that had already started moving. I appreciate the time skip from the previous movie, but I think the story would’ve benefited from more exploration, especially when it comes to Noa and his family. We needed more time to become familiar with their world and build a stronger connection with Noa and his group of friends.

It also would’ve been great to see more of the rise of Proximus’ empire. Even if it was through flashbacks or him recounting his own history, it would’ve added more depth to his character.

Overall, I felt like the movie was rushed toward the conclusion, leaving several plot threads underdeveloped. It’s still a great movie, with amazing visuals and CGI, but there were expectations I had based on the production announcements that, unfortunately, weren't fully met.

I see Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes as a turning point in the franchise, and I really hope future installments explore more of the themes from the older POTA films in a fresh way. I’m hopeful that these lingering plot holes will be addressed in upcoming films.

I just watched War for the Planet of the Apes for the first time and it's very tragic and sadder than I've thought it would. Most of the ape population gets enslaved, some of them get crucified, and some of them died. Caesar also lost his loved ones, including his family. It tries to end the trilogy with an emotional one, and does that job so well. And the colonel is just a pure psychopath who killled not only the apes, also his allies. The movie had me in tears in the end. 10/10.

I’ve been waiting for awhile before I got this tattoo because it means so much to me. My grandfather who passed away who basically raised me introduced me to this series and it’s been my comfort to watch since he’s been gone.

I was so excited for this and absolutely love how it turned out.

Are the primates we follow throughout the most recent movies the only intelligent group of primates? Or was the virus transmitted from humans to other primates in other places

I know WesBall has a presences on this reddit so hear me out if you're reading this, For those who've read them the novels Firestorm and Revelations by Greg Keyes were released in between the films of the last trilogy. They were just as good as the movies if not a little better and gave amazing insight through different characters perspective. Koba, Blue Eyes, Cornelia, even the Colonel and his son.

As for what it would be about? I don't think directly following the films events would be the best course since there's still probably a big argument on what is or isn't being discussed let alone written.

A prequel on the other hand would be better I think, It's always more fun to see how things came to be that what they will become. As for the premise and characters? Kingdom provided more than enough material for the blueprint of a very interesting story, It could start off just year before the events of Kingdom.

Proximus; The best story that can be told would be his rise to power and how exactly he built his Kingdom, during the dinner scene he say "An Ape and a Human traveling together, Quite an adventure." and Trevhatan laughs implying that they did the same and Proximus may have not always been a leader.

Rakka's Friend; he was a part of the Order of Ceaser just like him, We could see the mythology and legends that have been formed around Ceaser more fleshed out, this would also show us what the Order did and how it came to just Rakka

Trevhatan; Now Trevhatan said that he nearly made it all the way to the coast before he was injured and taken in by Proximus, Where did he come from? and why did he leave?

Mae: Controversial I know, but way too many people see her as a villain even an antagonist, she's just like any character. Decent intentions=Less Decent results, If we got to see her before she and her group left their bunker and got killed (her own mother most likely being one of them) her perspective could also give us some more knowledge about how Simian Flu is now and how dangerous it is to humanity at this point.

I know this is a really weird, specific and out of the blue idea but this is a great way to keep the audience engaged and keep them guessing. So Wes Ball if you're reading this would mean alot if you took this up with the studio or any aspiring writers.
