Joshua Garrett

So stoked to watch your reaction to this one!

David Freese

Kingdom is set 300 years in the future and is a continuing part of the story but with a new characters. They are hoping for another 5 films to get the timeline to be where it was in the og POA

pickupthepieces

The Apes will never disappoint! Gonna watch it right now!

Robert da Spruce

Now I know how the people that weren’t a fan of Star Trek TNG felt 😉 JK 😊 kinda How many Planet of the Ape films are there?

bgb1975 (Brian)

We're the Monkees, and people say we monkey around.

Stick Figure Studios

Get ready for an amateur film critic's highfalutin' analysis of a major summer blockbuster that may or may not be as deep or insightful as it sounds... *SPOILERS AHEAD* The "war" referred to in the title of this PLANET OF THE APES movie isn't a war between humans and apes. Neither is it a war between humans and other humans or even a war between apes and other apes. It's a war between Caesar and himself. I've said it before and I'll say it again: the character of Caesar has to be one of the most complex and compelling protagonists of a big-budget studio franchise I've seen in a long time. The fact that he is essentally a "special effect" makes it all the more remarkable. Caesar feels more "real" than many of the full-on human characters we see inhabiting tentpole movies today. Watching him grow from a newborn (and admittedly animated with some dodgy CGI) infant in 2011's excellent RISE to a conflicted but nonetheless driven leader of his kind in the 2014 sequel DAWN (a superior sequel with better CGI) has been a highlight of this new trilogy rebooted from the classic sci-fi series. Caesar's arc has been the moral and emotional core at the center of this marvelous new series of movies and in WAR it speeds towards its inevitable but satisfying conclusion (particularly inevitable to all those who observed somewhere along the way that Caesar is essentially Moses; I figured that out myself in the second film and this one did not disabuse me of that reading). Here, Caesar deals with the fallout of a war with humans that he didn't want but which he found himself thrust into by the traitorous machinations of the abused and hateful Koba (whom Caesar killed in a duel at the conclusion of the last film). He keeps trying to find the balance between protecting his community from a very real threat and not indulging in his more severe inclinations in the process. The murder if his wife and oldest son by the ruthless army Colonel (a terrific Woody Harrelson) causes Caesar to lose any remaining vestiges of compassion and he embarks on a mission of revenge. The battle between vengeance and mercy waging within Caesar's soul is played out in the film through periodic visions he has of the angry Koba appearing to him and egging him on, haunting him like a ghostly figure and tempting him with thoughts of depair and futility. There to pull him back from the abyss is his loyal friend and second-in-command Maurice, a gentle orangutan with a heart so tender and loving that he opts to take care of a young orphan girl they stumble across in their journey (a girl he names, in a nice nod to the original '68 film, Nova). If Koba is the devil on Caesar's shoulder, Maurice is the angel on his other. It is a conflict that even Harrelson's obsessed soldier observes and comments on at one point. The caliber of storyelling and filmmaking on display in this film is extraordinary. Matt Reeves, who also wrote and directed the similarly superb DAWN, has fashioned a rare treasure in today's Hollywood landscape: an FX-heavy studio release that is intelligent, emotional, atmospheric, funny, provocative and socio-politcally relevant. The film has, at times, shades of APOCALYPSE NOW and Like Coppola's movie, Reeves' journey into the heart of Caesar's darkness carries with it a stark lesson in the "preservation of our humanity" (a phrase that has more than one meaning in this context), what Lincoln called "the better angels of our nature." I can't wait to watch this reaction.

Patrick Flanagan

KINGDOM is, I believe, intended as the start of a new trilogy. It's got its own flavor but I thought it was a decent follow-up.

MikeLL

There is only one more. (So far.)

MikeLL

I look at the two Planet of the Apes movie series as what they are. Two completely separate movie series.

Dan M

I was already excited to watch your reaction to this movie. But now I’m even more excited to see your reaction to the introduction of Bad Ape, and his contribution to a plethora of Tim Tok memes….OH NOOOO!

MikeLL

It is also the only one of these movies that is up right now on Disney+.

Dan M

Yeah, what Stick said.

David Freese

Thats not the plan though. It just a different way of telling the same story. The endgame is to be the same story structure as the original og movie. Thats why some people considered these films prequels. I respect what you are saying cause I thought the same but after the Easter egg of the Icuraus in Rise disappearing and reading the full outline of this series in an article I have changed my mind.

Dan M

I was a little disappointed that the series didn’t pick up where War left off, or maybe just a few years after War to show how the apes settled into their new territory and how Cornelius grew into an adult ape. But still, Kingdom was a good movie with a good story.

David Freese

Thats what I read Cassie so hopefully it happens. To see how they change the Taylor story

Robert da Spruce

Thx Mike! Not sure why this franchise never really appealed to me. Not the original films. Or the modern ones But it seems there’s plenty of people that do love them. And Cass and Carlz seem to really like them as well Enjoy everyone!

Clarence Newman

Here's what I'm thinking. In comparison to the OG series, these movies showcase the chimpanzees very well, but they sorely neglect the orang utans. You may not know this, Cassie, but a young orang utan from the original series got fed up with all the bickering and politics and moved to the San Fernando Valley, where he became friends with a truck driver called Philo Beddoe and had all sorts of fun adventures. Though not a direct sequel to Planet of the Apes, Clyde (for that was his name) got his own biopic in the form of "Every Which Way But Loose" - also starring Clint Eastwood - and thus became the most famous orang utan who ever lived. Question is, are you going to be exclusively and heinously chimpist or spare at least one slot for the orange folk?

Michael West

This is one of my favorites. So glad you enjoyed these.

Chris Retzlaff

It's been fun watching these with you two...and I'm glad the shirt came and was unboxed before this reaction....and happy you liked it...first time sending something...and no worries to the shout out to CT. I said everyone deserves a shout out...lol...now it's time for.......WHAT A GLORIOUS DAY!!!

Brian's Dog

I understood this reference before I got to the movie title.

Nathan Swapp

Kingdom is a follow up about 2 centuries later.

Mark Vaderr

WooHooo! Very excited for this reaction and even more excited that you keep getting surprised at how great these movies really are. Cassie, did you envision yourself and Carly enjoying movies like this 5 years ago? I'll have to watch this on Friday to start the weekend. "OH NOOO!" Is the Pick-A-Flick tonight?

Shad Kanyak

Kingdom was supposed to be the start of a new trilogy. Don't know if that's still the plan. It was my least favorite of the 4, but not enough to stop me from seeing a 5th.

OddThomas

War is my favourite Apes movie, period. Not seen 4; seemed utterly superfluous.

Blake Evans

This was such a great way to finish the Ceasar arc. Wasn't my favorite the first time I saw it as I was expecting far more war. But on subsequent rewatches I understood it was more a war for Cesar's soul. Does his vengeful side make him more human or more ape? The next film Kingdom POTA is supposed to be the start of a new trilogy in this same time line. While it is my least favorite so far it was still pretty good and sets up a few things Im excited to see play out.

Jake McNulty

I know I may be in the minority here, but I would be interested in seeing you and Carly react to the 2001 Tim Burton Planet of the Apes with Mark Wahlberg. It's admittedly not the best apes films, the script is pretty lacklustre, but the set and makeup designs still hold up pretty well in my opinion.

Shadowlord

Yes, the next POTA movie is currently in production (no title yet) and is planned for a 2027 release. Kingdom did really well at the box office ($400 million), so you can bet Disney is not going to stop the cash cow now. Personally, I'm hoping the next movie will be about the return of the Icarus which was shown launching in Rise. That would bring the series full circle.

Cameron Stewart

Can't wait to watch your reactions! Dawn edges out War just barely on my ranking. Definitely recommend Kingdom as a follow-up.

Darren Harrison

How is that possible? “Escape”, “Conquest” and “Battle” contradict events in this new series…

David Freese

I understand but what they said in the article. (Wish I could find it again) was that other than switching out nuclear war with the virus its more like the original timeline. Its not the timeline from Escape Conquest or Battle.

Richard Vonherbulis

Kingdom is the start of a new trilogy. Takes place a few hundred years after this trilogy. It's also really good. Maybe not as good as Dawn and War, but def better than Rise imo

D. T. Nelson

Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes was intended to start a new trilogy about 300 years after this trilogy ended. However, I haven't heard anything yet about a follow up to Kingdom. Keep in mind that the original PotA movie took place around 2000 years after present day, so there are plenty of stories to tell covering the time period between this trilogy and the original movie.

shaneth138

Thanks sooooo much for this! Your reaction was well worth the wait! Definitely watch the new one. While it is a completely new story, it is directly connected to this Caesar trilogy, it's just 300 years later.

Rippan

"Donkey" is big for the same reason Luca & Winter are bigger, they are adult gorillas (silverback). Caesar and the others are chimpanzee and bonobos (Koba) and a few orangutans like Maurice. Kingdom is the first of the new trilogy and the creators have spoken about making up to 9 movies in total, so two more trilogies with a time jump between them (Kingdom included). The 5th movie hasn't been announced yet tho, we just know it was green lit 6-7 months ago and is in pre-production.

Wesley White

I told you this was a tear jerker lol! I can't wait to watch it, I unfortunately have to work now, but I'll definitely watch it tonight when I get off work! Love and support always, hope you have a good Monday, Happy Cinco de Mayo, you and Carly are the best, and God bless y'all and the family🥰😇🙏😁🤗😉👍✌🌹

JL_83

sorry, but have to laugh at the irony of her saying in the intro that she likes that Woody Harrelson is in the movie, given the character that he plays...

OddThomas

The Tim Burton Apes is actually OK, it's just the ending confused a lot of people and Mark Wahlberg wasn't the best choice as the lead

TheSingulatarian

I think Cassie stopped breathing there for a second or two.

David Freese

According to sources that won't happen till the 3rd trilogy. They plan on 9 films.

Clay F

I would have liked to seen this movie in the theater. As for Woody Harrelson, this movie is only 3 years after True Detective S1. While the 1968 original is my favorite (and the reaction by you and Carly was excellent), I enjoyed these 3 Serkis apes movies (and your reactions), and looking forward to Kingdom. I am curious what your reaction to the Burton 2001 remake will be like. Thank you much for reacting to this franchise.

Canadianant

This was great. Great story arc . Really enjoyed this one.

Jason Henderson

This is a great series! So glad you enjoyed it! 👍🍿

Brian's Dog

The CGI artists here were next level masters. I don't know if I've seen as good CGI since.

Eric Wallace

Y'all need to fix the lighting during filming if you can't see this stuff. Or you're tv settings are jacked

Jacob and Kim

Did I miss the 2nd movie reaction? I don’t see it posted anywhere.

Chris Thom

The names are really similar. I always do that too.

Chris Thom

We're too busy a-singin'...to put anybody down.

Chris Thom

I was wondering what that was about. Lol. I made a smart ass comment last week about apes on horses with machine guns but had no clue what T-shirt she was talking about. The shirt is rad though. Nice gift.

Chris Thom

Only 36 hours of obscure, animated content to get to. (jk) I mean there actually could be I have no idea.

Jacob and Kim

Thank you! It looks like we don’t have the correct tier for Dawn but we do for War. That’s why we couldn’t find it.

Chris Thom

Any idea how many years after (in universe) the first one with James Franco War is supposed to be?

shaneth138

Yes, it’s about a ten year jump between Rise (with Franco) and Dawn since Maurice said it’s been “10 winters” since their escape. In War of the POTA, Caesar’s youngest son is still very young so I think it’s safe to say only a couple years at most has passed between Dawn and War. So it’s probably about 12 years from when Rise ends and War ends. If you mean from the beginning from Rise to the end of war, it would be another 8 years. So the entire trilogy is over the span of about 20 years. So it would be about 320 years or so from the beginning of Rise to Kingdom.

Walter

the apes looked great. But the story was not great and Walberg was not great.

K, Zachary

So yeah while I won't say anything bad about the old school movies especially because more than half the time I have no idea what I am talking about. I know It takes different strokes to move the world and all that. Those old school ones just don't work in the 21st century. Again I could be completely wrong that just my opinion. Not saying those movies are bad by any means. Fantastic job ladies K'aatech and I were up past nine watching this . She turned over and went right to sleep. She has to be up at 4:30 am.The next one Kingdom is slight step down but not by much. Not as good as these three but still good. K'aatech did say you two work well as a team together. During the movie. Speaking of team I can't let you go without the Caitlin Clark shot from yesterday that happened at our end of the floor. All I can say is Wow just WOW! Enjoy ladies https://youtu.be/6u0SyDNrczY?si=lBQ1grjflPrQBHMF

Colton Piper

Definitely watch Kingdom. There is no Ceaser (and I did miss him), but it was still a great film. These Apes films are one of the few saga's of movies where each one has been quality. But god damn is the CG in War so good. There was times watching this that I actually wondered if they used a really good practical mask or something because the fur and skin just look so damn good.

Colton Piper

Agreed about Kingdom I think it is my least favorite as well, but it is still quality. I hate that modern movies have made me so pessimistic because I keep expecting one of these movies to just drop off in quality, but it really has not happened yet.

Mike Sutherland

That is the same for me and I was confused. Don't really understand. Also wondering if I am crazy or should the YT edits be out of are they out and I just don't see them

Mister Lou

I say YES to both! watch Kingdom AND the Mark Wahlberg one just for fun! I actually really enjoy them both!

Clay F

That is confusing because the same tier ($10/mo) for the full reactions to both Dawn and War.

Ozzy S

At first watch,at that time in my life, I thought it was just a good movie. I have a friend who is all about becoming a filmmaker and we've had so many discussions about this movie alone and never in disagreement but just in rarity, watching it ~50 more times, i cant help but always quote when Caesar yells "LEAVE HIM!!".... My top 3 trilogy behind lord of the rings

Philip Alan

You definitely need a bigger TV in that room! How do you not recognize Woody Harrelson?? Ha! It looks like you two struggle to see what’s on the screen. Just a friendly suggestion! 📺📺

YodatheHobbit

I love how it all came back around to an aspect of the memorable scenes in the red woods, Caesar and the rest of the apes were able to survive because they could climb trees. They survived because they were more evolved, more skilled in that way, than us. Like mammals against the dinosaurs. They were able to stay alive because they could escape a natural disaster we could not. Also, that is an awesome Planet of the Apes shirt. I wish I had one!

Popcorn In Bed

it’s a big tv but some of the scenes are so dark, maybe we need to increase the brightness

Philip Alan

If you’re not rockin’ a 65 inch TV in there, I don’t know what you’re doing over there! 🤪

Gábor Árki

It seems this full reaction has been made available to all paid members of any tier, instead of the two highest that would have access to the full reactions.

Gábor Árki

A lot can depend on the TV and its settings. Especially for HDR content in dark scenes. HDR is primarily timed for dark room viewing. Some panels simply lack the technical capabilities to display HDR content properly, and this doesn't manifest only in lack of peak brightness but also issues when watching near black scenes. And using a bad picture profile or wrong settings (like HDR profile created for a dark room in a bright environment, or misconfigured local dimming for LCD panels, etc) is equally bad and can taint the experience even on a great panel.

Philip Alan

And yes, please watch KINGDOM & MARKY MARK POTA movies! :)

Philip Alan

There are a few of us out here who would love for Cassie to react to Wahlberg's APES movie! I think she's going to.

Vlad D

Hi Cassie. Did you already select a popcorn pick of the month for April???

Clarence Newman

You lot don't know you've lived! I remember when we all crowded around a 15 incher to watch Star Trek, then took a family pack of Paracetamol to offset the thumping headaches. If your mate had one that was 20 inches, you thought he was in line for the throne. I'm trying to think of when tv's got so big, we started having to move our heads to see everything that was happening. For the record, Phil, me and my wife have stopped at a 55 incher. We thought about 65 but it was just too damn big. It would've been like watching a tennis match.

Philip Alan

I'm mostly kidding about them getting that size. It is what I have in my home because I'm a nut. I bring it up because they have been struggling to see what's on the TV lately. You see them lean forward to either read or see what's happening on the screen a few times the last few reactions. That usually means the TV is too small or really dark, so they sometimes miss key moments in movies. Just an observation. I'm sure they will correct the issue. And yes, I remember those days of small TVs with no remote controls. The kids were the remote controls. :)

Mike Lemon

She totally stopped Pick-A-Flick... This is in no way a lie to keep people from submitting their May pick, giving me a much better chance of winning. But no. I haven't seen the April pick yet.

Clarence Newman

If at all possible, pretty please, I would prefer it if our Popcorn poppet's Pick-a-flick pick this month was my personal pick of the prison drama production of Papillon.

Wesley White

Yes you must watch the next one "Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes"! I saw it in the theaters when it came out, believe it or not it was the first Planet of the Apes movie I ever saw in the theater, I never saw this or the other two in the theater so I had to make sure I got that experience while I could lol! I'm a little surprised you and Carly didn't cry as much, especially with Caesar, I cried my eyes out when he met his end! The way I see it, even though yes Carly is right that this movie has a good closing ending, but I see it as the end of Caesars journey and the beginning of a new journey for any Ape, hence the most recent one! Woody Harrelson is such a great actor, he plays a character that you just want to hate, just goes to show how much range he has as an actor, but yeah I do like it better when he plays a good guy lol! This was a fun watch Cassie, I'm glad you and Carly liked it! Though I'm not a huge "Planet of the Apes" fan, but like you and Carly, they surprised me too! Honestly between the OG films and these newer ones, well I do prefer the newer ones, but that's just me, the OG's are entertaining and I'll watch them again if I find myself in the mood! Really enjoyed this, can't wait for you two to finally finish it with Kingdom! If I may compliment you Cass and Carly too, you and Carly looked very lovely, especially you! I noticed you got a bit of a tan going on, very nice👌😉lol! Love and support always, you and Carly are the best, hope y'all had a fun and safe Cinco de Mayo, and God bless y'all and the family🥰😇🙏😁🤗😉👍✌🌹

Wesley White

@Vlad D, yes she already did her Pick-A-Flick for April, it was the 1946 movie "A Matter of Life and Death" aka "Stairway to Heaven" I think, she just hasn't posted the YT edit yet, the full length is on here! To my knowledge she hasn't picked her May pick yet!

Vlad D

I think that was for March's pick. May's pick won't be selected until June

Tommymctomflynn

Please watch Kingdom of the planet of the apes, so you can see how the saga ends. And the setting of the movie may seem a little familiar.

Brian McGovern

Technically, I don’t think the gorilla was called Donkey. I think that was the name they gave to all the silverbacks working with the humans. They had donkey written on their backs because they were being used for manual labour ( before they captured the primate troops). I don’t think he was ever actually named throughout the movie, but the credits show the character as Red Donkey.

Rippan

Yeah, thats why I used "Donkey" as they kept repeating that name for him. Based on the Planet of the Apes wiki he's just refered as Red

Clarence Newman

Or the interim period where the first remotes had a cable that plugged into the tv. The number of times we violently yanked that cable out when we got up for a cup of tea....

Ignis Rændl

such a great trilogy. glad you both enjoyed them, especially this one. special mention for Steve Zahn who played Bad Ape. and Amiah K Miller who did an excellent job bringing Nova to the screen. i suppose i better watch Kingdom then.

Joe J

What's up? We're a day late on the drawing for April entries.

Joe J

@Gabor, HDR isn't a thing unless she's watching 4K, right? A streaming version is crappy 2K.

Gábor Árki

@Joe, depends on the streaming service and the content. For some, like Netflix or Max, 4K and HDR is only offered in their highest subscription tier. For others, like Prime Video and Apple TV+, you get 4K and HDR automatically if they have that version available for that content and your device supports streaming it. From what I see on Justwatch, this title is offered in 4K, and presumably in HDR, on all streaming services in the US.

Clarence Newman

Copyright must be getting real ornery on Youtube. We now have SIX reactions waiting for a YT edit (including Matter of Life and Death from way back on April 18!), and I know it's not because Matt is slacking. (Or maybe he's on holiday?)

Joe J

I need the YT edits, because I very rarely have interest in the full-length watch-a-longs. Cassie always drops the edit just a few hours before the YT premiere.

bgb1975 (Brian)

Donkey Kong would wipe the floor with all these other apes!

Larry Darrell

If the lights are on in the room, as in not a dark room or lights in your eyes, then dark scenes will appear especially dark. I noticed you having trouble with the dark scenes in The Outlaw Josey Wales. You said you couldn’t see anything, but I could see just fine. My brightness is even turned down. Every bit of light you have in the room while watching a movie, takes away from the brightness of your TV. You need to play with all the levels possible until it looks right. Dark scenes are meant to be dark, but your brightness and contrast should be leveled so that blacks are black, not grey, and the light in scene pops so that you can see what you’re supposed to see.

Sam

Great movie, and such a great trilogy, I really enjoyed rewatching it with you guys. Btw. because you said the soldiers were very "nazi-ish", you should check out modern military, this behavior isnt just happening in dictatorships or facist groups, most military has rituals like this.

Chris Thom

Dinkey Kong Country forever.

Chris Thom

According to what she said on the Star Wars thing the pick should be tonight.

Philip Alan

You know what? I didn’t consider the studio lights in their faces. That 100% does not help. Great point!

Clarence Newman

What's that other monkey film you should watch? It's on the tip of my tongue. Hell, I'll just sing a few bars till it comes to me... I'm testin' my resistance And it's wearing mighty thin I've got the feeling I should leave Before the roof caves in My mind tells me to move along But my body begs me to stay And now I feel the need to hold you close And love the night away While you're turnin' me..... EVERY WHICH WAY BUT LOOSE!! There it is.

Clarence Newman

And, by the way....besides Clint Eastwood, it also stars Geoffrey Lewis, who is the father of Juliette Lewis, who you recently saw in Cape Fear.

Mike Lemon

"What's that other monkey film you should watch?" Project X (1987)? But I don't think that song is in it.

Clarence Newman

I give you Clint Eastwood and you come back with Matthew Broderick? I chuckle at thee.

Mike Lemon

She better like the rest of The Last of Us or it's probably going to be seven.

Chris Thom

I feel for Matt. It must be a pain the ass having so many vids to edit all at once. That said the Youtube edits are WAY easier to watch than having to sync all the time.

Clay F

I am hoping her next Eastwood movie is "Escape from Alcatraz" (thriller/action) (1979) [RT 97%] (same director as for Dirty Harry). Danny Glover's first movie (a minor role). "Escape From Alcatraz is a nifty prison movie, among the best of that genre ever made."

Clarence Newman

I don't feel for Matt. Matt works for Cassie. You should see the nimrod I work for.

Clarence Newman

Mike. I just saw the latest episode of The Last of Us. It doesn't bode well.

Mike Lemon

@Clay- If she can pair that with Murder in the First (1995), I'm all for it.

Stick Figure Studios

@Mike: This is probably blasphemy, but I find PROJECT X to be a much better movie than EVERY WHICH WAY BUT LOOSE. I actually think RISE OF THE PLANET OF THE APES owes a lot to it.

Anthony Carlson

So who won the May Pick a Flick? Only Extra Butter folks is allowed to see the live?

Brian Lowery

I am a member, and it never went live. Says it’s cancelled. Hopefully just a technical issue.

Popcorn In Bed

No, it was mistakenly set to extra butter, but changed a few minutes after! It's encoding now and will be posted shortly for everyone! The winner was Nathan and he picked "A Monster Calls (2016)"!

Anthony Carlson

I figured that was the case. Don’t worry, all is good! Box of fluffy dogs! 😂

Thomas Kennedy

Did I miss the YT edit of “Dawn”? I can’t see it on the Patreon or your YouTube channel. It may have copyright issues? To quote Mugatu, “I feel like I’m taking crazy pills!!” 🤣🤣 Thanks!

JasonM

It premieres on Youtube at 10:15 tonight.

Thomas Kennedy

Notification just popped up on the phone. Thank you!

Clarence Newman

I can give you two yeses, Stick. Ruth Gordon is hilarious in Which Way, and your next post was blasphemy.

Clarence Newman

Dinkey Kong? That's not like a Scrappy Doo spinoff, is it?

Clarence Newman

I remember Bob Newhart doing a sketch on that, Flag. "Hold on, Post 15 here has something: 'To be....or not to be....that is the gazornenpladz.'"

The Star Treker (aka Michael)

This might be the end of Caesar's journey—but you absolutely gotta watch Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes! It's a must. I was genuinely heartbroken when Caesar's story came to a close, but damn, what a powerful and meaningful way to wrap up the trilogy. He's honestly the heart of the whole reboot series for me—he's why I fell in love with these films in the first place. Maurice really stood out in War, especially his bond with the little girl they named Nova. I loved that—it felt like such a thoughtful nod to the original 1968 film. And Bad Ape? Total scene-stealer. I cracked up every time he was on screen—funny without overdoing it. Just the right amount of comic relief. And yeah, Woody Harrelson? Incredible. He made me hate him in this, which just proves how damn good he is. I usually prefer him playing good guys, though—loved him in Zombieland, Solo, Venom 2, Fly Me to the Moon, Last Breath, and especially Champions. That one hit close to home for me—I was born with a physical disability, so watching him coach a team of players with intellectual disabilities really resonates. Cassie and Carty, I'd honestly love to see you two react to Champions sometime. It's got a lot of heart and comedy. But yeah—back to Kingdom—please, please watch it! Like I said in my comment on your Dawn reaction, War is my favorite of the trilogy, and Kingdom comes in right behind it. I'm also super hyped for the next one they're working on for 2027. Can't wait to see where the story goes from here. 😊🖖❤️

Mike Lemon

If she is having problems with dark scenes, it definitely needs fixed if she is going to attempt towatch Game of Thrones.

The Star Treker (aka Michael)

Actually, there is a follow-up in the works. Back in June 2022, Disney and 20th Century made it clear that Kingdom was meant to kick off a whole new Planet of the Apes trilogy. Wes Ball even confirmed it himself in late 2023—that Kingdom was always designed to carry on the legacy of the previous reboot trilogy. Plus, Rick Jaffa and Amanda Silver are on board with the idea of a full nine-film arc, so it's not just a one-off. And as of October 2024, 20th Century's president said the next installment is already in development and aiming for a 2027 release. So yeah, it's happening—even if they're keeping it low-key for now. I'm super excited for it.

The Star Treker (aka Michael)

There are 10 Planet of the Apes movies so far—5 from the original classic run, 1 standalone remake, and 4 from the reboot series. A fifth reboot film is on the way, and apparently they're aiming to make it a 9-film arc.

Clay F

They have already decided to watch Kingdom.

Weeks ago, they decided they would react to Kingdom.

They already decided to watch Kingdom.

It's funny—I didn't even notice until yesterday. At first, I was kinda bummed thinking Cassie just skipped Dawn of the Planet of the Apes and jumped straight to War, but then I searched and realized it was there all along. Turns out she posted it weeks ago. I had been checking Patreon off and on before I even subscribed, and somehow it never showed up for me. I had actually paid for her Rise of the Planet of the Apes reaction back in early April, so I figured I'd catch the rest. No idea how I missed it before. I kept wondering why it didn't pop up—especially since I was also following Jen Murray's reactions on Patreon at the same time. Lol

Well, I'm late to the party but I'm very glad they have already decided to watch it. That's good to know. I'm looking forward to watching their reaction to it. 😊

Rick Williams

Good Movie. It did give the back story of Caeser and the beginning of the apes creating their civilization that we didn't get with the original movie series. It was nice to see how Caeser became the great law giver. Great reactions Cassie and Carly.

Great story to the trilogy and the cgi was great too just the action was a bit to F&F for me, how are there like 10 working apache's with immune pilots still left..but hey it's a movie afterall lol

its more attacking exclusively from the front with apaches 1km in the air max for me when you could swarm from every direction from heaven and waste them without barely any ground support if you hit those AA's fast enough

I enjoyed Kingdom. War was the best of them though. Maurice is the best!

I think you need a better TV or to calibrate your settings and brightness a bit better. I know you have lights facing you for reactions, but it seemed y'all were struggling to see quite a bit.

Yeah, "donkey" was clearly a derogatory name given to apes that were working for humans. Cassie and Carly never picked up on that and thought the main "Red Donkey" character was actually named Donkey.

Kevin Farrell

Great reaction. What a ride this trilogy has been. Never thought this grown man would be crying over a cgi ape, but here we are 😆
