I know, right? From the previews you expect it to be a dumb, dumbed-down action movie with monkey beat-fight scenes thrown in everywhere. But it doesn't. The story takes a long time to build, and uses action only when it needs to.
Ceasar (the monkey) has a very real character to him, and he is indisputably the protagonist of the story. I think that was really cool for a character who doesn't speak.
It's def. worth your money.

Then I'll honestly consider giving it a shot. I'm most likely going to wait until Netflix though since I'm kinda picking and choosing what I go to carefully as far as theater goes.

Ceasar doesn't speak? Fucking bastards have just ruined the movie for me. Talking apes=Planet Of The Fucking Apes franchise. Not super smart. But Talking Fucking Apes.
Hate that my grandmother woke me up extra early to tell me I need to go to the 'Kingdom Hall' with her...woman my god can beat up yours. Lemme lone dammit. Bitch didn't let me sleep and saw fit to start praying and preaching at me. JUST GRAAAAAAHHHHH. I have to leave today. I can't be here when she gets back or I'm going to scream at her...won't say anything in particular. Just going to stand and scream at her until my throat feels like it's been jackhammered by an angry gimp.

For me personally, I've never liked any of the Planet of the Apes movies, so when I saw the trailer for this new one I thought, "I know how this ends. The monkeys win, we loose, do I really want to spend my time and money watching primates kick everyone's ass?" to which my answer was no. If you respond with a resounding yes, then by all means, go see the movie (and I mean that with sincerity not sarcasm) !

It is actually a bit more complex than that. It's a really well done story, IMO.

Sweet. I'll have to go see it. I'm trying to go now but my sister is up in arms about leaving now. Fuck...now I'll have to wait until Tuesday. Oh well. Might as well see Captain America too.

Mom: Well, my van's dead, so I guess you're driving me to the grocery store.
Me: Nope, I've got homework tonight.
Mom: FINE. FINE. THAT'S JUST FINE.
Me: wtf, fuck off
Mom: You're the reason the van battery died. You didn't inflate the lawnmower tire like I asked you to.
Me: It was overcast and drizzly as fuck. I'm not about to get all electrical outside when it looks like a hurricane. Regardless, ANY time you use your car battery to charge something, you should have your car running. You were stupid. That's not my fault.
Mom: When are you and Jessica getting this kitchen cleaned? I'm TIRED of living in a dirty kitchen
Me: Not relevant. I'm not playing this game. Bye.

Maybe she should clean it if it's not clean enough for her? just sayin'.
Man alone measures time.
Man alone chimes the hour.
And, because of this, man alone suffers a paralyzing fear no other creature endures.
A fear of time running out.

What's the point in having children if you can't force them to do the things you don't want to do/things you never could?
That could probably spawn something in the Kame House.

Hate that I sadly didn't make it out in time...so I've retreated to my old bedroom which is empty aside from a dresser and a chair. I have to give it to them though...fucking Jehovah's Witnesses are determined little fuckers. She actually called in reinforcements, three 'young' 'brothers' from her...whatever the fuck it is.
Only thing I like at the moment is my closet remained somewhat untouched so I have comics to read tonight.

Tell them at nights you slip on a cock ring and masturbate to the film Constantine.
