  • Welcome to my first-time watching as we react to Rise of the Planet of the Apes (2011). A riveting journey that is filled with groundbreaking visual effects and a gripping storyline that shows us the evolution of Caesar and his fellow apes.
    Starring James Franco and Andy Serkis, and directed by Rupert Wyatt, this film reimagines the iconic franchise with a fresh take on the origins of the intelligent apes. Not only do they take us through how The Planet of the Apes came to be but there's also quite a few nods to the original Planet of the Apes that came out in 1968.
    This film has a surprisingly good amount of emotional depth as it explores the moral complexities of the narrative. Also we have to give a massive shoutout to Andy Serkis for his incredible performance through motion-capture technology.
    We hope that you enjoy our reactions, commentary and discussions as we delve into the film's themes, how it goes beyond your standard blockbuster and how the depth in it's storytelling is what ultimately makes this film be a standout!

      7:06-7:15 lets clarify and i understand your emotional reaction. humans are willingly ignorant when it comes to preservation of animal life, thats why majority of animals are completely gone.. as of right now..
      you guys should the first planet of the apes from tthe year 1999 or 2000(with late great michael clark duncan from the green mile movie, helena carter from harry potter/house of dark shadows movies..and lead mark warlburg as the astronaut who travels back to that time period..)

      Do you think he can speak because he gets a double dose of the "medicine"? He gets the original one through his mum, which makes him exceptional, and then he releases the canister which is the virulent form. I've always wondered if that's why he can speak and the others can't

    The "NOOOOO!" Scene, is so damn impactful because of a very specific detail...
    These apes have lived in captivity for who knows how long, have been abused for who knows how long. They JUST recently become intelligent, they begin learning from Caesar, choose to follow him. Then he does something that these super intelligent apes still think is impossible...
    He DOMINATED a HUMAN. Apes have fought back plenty of times, but to see their new leader thoroughly dominate their oppressor, and use the Human's own language against them...
    The silverback has the best "OMG expression". Imagine the world of possibilities that immediately opens up in their minds. It's no longer a world dominated by humans, they can fight back...

      Yeah, if you understand a bit about primate society that makes all the sense in the world. My sons and I have talked about this (originally started discussion with the subject of training--I trained horses, he trains dogs and what the differences are), we were arguing about at what point did human society start it's fall--was it the infection, the sudden intelligence in most of the apes, what was it. I think you pinpointed it--the moment when Caesar successfully dominated a human. Dominance is key in primate societies like chimps.

      The no scene is a very important one if u watch the old movies. In the last there is a scene where apes and human children get taught together and a black guys i telling a ape "no" what does trigger the apes and then it gets explained that no is a banned word for humans to say because it represents supression. And on another section it gets pointed out and explained that "no" was the first word a ape ever spoke because the humans did use it so often on him.

  • @josh6689
    @josh6689 2 месяца назад +57

    The thing is with Cesar, is he wasn't capable of speaking until he steals the cannisters. He had the genes from his mum for intelligence but he also breathes in the gas not just once, but twice. Once in the house and then again in the paddocks, the other apes only get one dose. That's why he is the first to speak and gets so much smarter toward the end of the film and starts making battle tactics.

    Something really interesting i picked up on about this trilogy after i learned sign language:
    Sign language cuts out a lot of filler words for the sake of keeping up with people speaking, so when Maurice the orangutan asked "why cookie rocket?" Thats actually how you would sign "hey, why'd you have rocket give us all cookies?", its just the literal translation instead of the actual translation. And in the later movies they slowly transition to using the actual translation instead of the literal translation to show the progression of the apes' communication skills. Which i think is a really cool detail that the filmmakers didnt have to include.

    Several yeas ago i saw a documentary about a chimp, which i think was called Nim, who was raised in a human family as an experiment to see if chimpanzees could learn human language. He learned about 150 signs i think, and not just “i want” and stuff like that. He made jokes and could be sarcastic aso.
    Later he became too big to live with his family, so they were forced to sent him to a zoo to live.
    His family visited him, but that made him more sad and aggressive, so they were told it was a bad idea to visit him.
    One of the most heart breaking things i have ever seen, was when his human mother came to visit him after several years without seeing him. The very first things Nim says to her was “cookie” and “home?” When she told him that she couldnt give him any cookies because he was only allowed food for chimps, and that she only was there to visit him, you could see all live in his eyes just fading away. He then turned away from her and didnt want to talk to her anymore. I’m actually crying right now, just thinking about it.
    His mother had a confrontation with the zookeeper, because Nim’s living arrangement was completly without any nature, just like in this movie. She explained that Nim was depressed because of it, and that it was animal abuse.
    And, just like in this movie, the zookeeper did not care at all. He didnt even try to hide it, because he knew that he had the law on his side. He blamed the mother for giving Nim a human family, and suggested that it was her who had made him have unrealistic expectations because of that. He then just shrugged his shoulders and said that the chimps are getting plenty of food, and comes out from their smaller cages several hours every day. That zookeeper is a human that i am not scared to admit that i hate with all of my heart.
    It does look like they have seen the same documentary as i have, those who have written this movie, because i see many similarities between that, and the movie.

    This is why I love reaction channels, of any variety; music reaction channels? I've found so much music I would otherwise never have heard. General reaction channels have led me to discussions on philosophy and better ways of thinking. Movie reaction channels have opened my eyes to movies I probably wouldn't have given the time and pushed myself to watch. What's more, and I've commented on this before, I can't get enough of your insights into cinema, writing, camera work, and... everything movie-related. I feel blessed and I thank you two for that.

    This movie is heartbreaking. It’s good, but the are so many moments that are just sad. The whole Alzheimer’s thing with Will’s dad must be so relatable for so many people. And the ape’s story is just unutterably disturbing imo. Imagine being turned into a this brand new type person and still being treated like an animal and worse with no rights and no respect 😣
    I didn’t care for most of the CGI, but the story easily makes up for it, 9/10.

      It's such a phenomenal story with so many deep themes that are truly thought-provoking. When I first watched these I didn't expect much. I just thought they'd be your standard blockbuster. I remember by the time I left the theater after the 2017 finale I was in awe by the story they were able to tell.

    54:22 I just noticed how the corpo pretty much does the opposite of the "asking permission" gesture. I find the symbolism of palm up showing both vulnerability, submission and possibly "offering" to be so cool. The corpo on the other hand, reaches out to grab/take help, which says so much about his personality, how Caesar might interpret it, and the differences between apes and humans in this universe... I didn't remember how good these movies actually are!

    This is an amazing trilogy, Caesar💚 is the best!!! ...love him to bits, hes a way better leader then most human leaders today. Hope u react to the other two.Caesar only bit the finger, it was still attached so that mean neighbour was lucky.
    Notice after all hes been through, Caesar has no first instinct or intention to kill humans or hurt people, just to free his apes. He never even killed the nasty Draco, he killed himself out of stupidity. Also the apes didnt kill any innocents, they just trashed a few offices and scared people tbf. You can see how heartbroken Caesar was to reject his human dad after he turned his back, its clear how hard it was for him & he continued using his window as his symbol on street signs afte r escaping. I always root for the apes, animals are true to their nature, & we betray ours.
    Also, Caesar can be infected again, so he also get even smarter when inhaling the 1.13 virus too, plus Caesar is way more intelligent since he had a proper human childhood education from Will.

Because he flew on so many flights he was considered one of the biggest spreaders of the disease back then. So seeing how the lines were just blossoming out was unnerving for me.
