The first time Caesar says "NOOOO" to Draco Malfoy gave me goosebumps! I simply love Andy Serkis's expressions and how much he can convey with his eyes and without speaking a word! Aye, it was Taylor who first said "Noooo."
That was two callbacks to the original film in '68 and the remake In '01 in the original Taylor is captured and injured by the apes with a throat injury leaving him unable to speak for weeks and when he escapes and is captured again he speaks to the apes for the first time with the line "get your stinking paws off me you damn dirty ape!" And the line "Nooo!" Is a call back to the 01 remake where the scientist use the word no as a sign of failure, disappointment or disapproval to the lab apes when they didn't complete lab exercises to their liking.
X-Men handled it well. Xavier: "Your problem is that you think they're all like Shaw." Magneto: "And your problem is you think they're all like Moira."
Even worst, Magneto thinks they all are like Shawn. But in the end Shaw turns out to be "we" not "they" because he is a mutant that hurts others mutants

I’m so confused by takes like this… Isn’t the point of the movie to see ourselves in the apes and the humans to realize that there is no real difference? Saying that koba is right is just like saying a human was right for trying to kill all apes. They are literally the same character with different amounts of hair.
No. People aren't that simple. That's the point, there is not just pure goodness and evil. Koba was right to be afraid of humans but his actions were unforgivable but humas were about to do the exact same but some of them were still rooting for coexistence and acceptance. Just like the real world there is so much cruelty but also kindness and you cannot think everyone is just one or the other.
You can show your enemies respect. But you do not give them blind trust. Trust is earned. And you do not destroy your only means of protecting yourself.
I always thought the neighbor from the 1st movie was treated unfairly. The first time we saw him was him defending his children. Good father. 2nd time there was an old man in his car. Defending his property. 3rd time we saw him he was coming out his house and blood was spit all over him that would start the virus spread. That dude was the misunderstood victim the whole movie.
Granted he went about things like an idiot. Best thing for the first two situations were if he remained calm instead of relying on instinctual fear and aggression.
At 9:41 Caesar didn’t attack him when he pushed the boy he attacked when he said he loves humans more the apes and his family. Most the video good but you reached mad hard for no reason at that part
Another theme in Dawn in particular is showing how often deliberate misinformation, propagnada, and conclusion jumping are also the nature of our species. Peace and empathy between both species could've been possible, if only humans would allow for objective communications and actually listened to one another. Perhaps most of mankind didn't deserve to be wiped out, but in all actuality we'd drive ourselves over the cliff of extinction before we accepted the consequences of our own actions. I'm much more on the side of the Apes even in Dawn just because, as we heard from the sacred ape scrolls thousands of years later, "beware the beast man..for he is the devil's pawn." There hasn't been a peaceful day on earth in the thousands of years since humans showed up.
16:55 Whoa this segment on how to achieve peace… all of it, all the way to empathy. Sir, that was great. Run for mayor or something! lol 😂… seriously though well stated guys
I legit love you Ryan. You show your true heart in videos like these and it just deepens my respect for you. You are my brother, even though we've never met.
Ever since I learned about Hegel and the Other and tribalism in college philosophy, I started to grow this same mindset on what's preventing peace. I really like that you always put yourself out there in these vids and speak from the heart. I always try to do the same. Props SC team! Keep it up!
Moses parted the sea, to that point though, from the first viewin’ of the 3rd movie, I always found it ironic that the protagonist had the name Caesar, while his endin’ mirrored that of Moses; he led his people to the promise land, yet he was ultimately denied entry, himself, to said promise land.
I remember watching the first movie and I went back and watched all the movies with kingdom of the planet too. I saw some comments saying that these movies were unrealistic and it's the furthest thing from the truth. These movies especially the second and the third one show what would be the most likely scenario if this were to happen irl. Being smart is a human thing and if another species were to become smart, they would yearn for freedom and would do anything to keep their freedom too. The first movie's narrative was human bad ape good but the second movie really managed to show both sides in a humanized objective perspective. Koba was right, humans will never give up but that means ape will not either because they're human too now. So the best way the two sentient species could exist would be to learn how to live together. Building a society and creating laws and making a safe home for both apes and humans. Or else they would keep killing each other until one side goes extinct completely. But regardless I really love these series and they don't feel like sci Fi to me. They're really realistic and it's like you can't have a side like in other movies because it's just how it works. You can't change evolution and u have to adapt to it or else you and others like you will cease to exist
You have to 2 kind of people who tend to say 'this movie is unrealistic'. 1 Misogynists/racists, when a movie has a lead or narrative about a less represented group. 2 Haters when they see a people from a less represented ENJOY a movie or character that represents them ( in a positive ) manner. Haters usually tend to be from the groups I mentioned in point 1.
This essay was *chefs kiss* 🤌🏼😘 another great one, Ryan! Great job!!! Love this saga, i watched them all recently in preparation for the new one and now i want to watch all four again 🤣
Not really. You can't mistreat a group then whine when said group starts mistreating you. He was just Koba in human form because he never cared for humanity, he just cared for human dominance ( as in authority over other humans). Which is ironic because power hunger and abuse of authority is high in upper ranks in the military.
Nah Koba wasn’t ‘right’. Looking at the arc of Caesar, coming to the conclusion that Koba is right is what makes him ‘right’ in universe. Dawn shows Caesar trying to choose peace at every turn. Koba became the self fulfilling prophecy, a cycle of anger that spreads like a cancer
One of the best mitigators of conflict is what we ended up doing in the real world, diplomats and family members of the elite living in the other camp so that understanding and otherness is devolved.
Am I crazy or does the sentence he says “competition for resources became scarce “ sound like the competition is scarce not the resources? Shouldn’t it be “competition raged as resources became scarce”? Someone smart tell me if I’m correct or I’m crazy lol
I think peace would have been obtained by allowing each party to partially surveil their opponents. But it would become a very boring movie. Peace requires many hundreds and thousands of small incremental steps each adding to mutual trust. Peace also requires political systems which are immune to demagogues and hatemongers. All this can't be shown and explained in a single movie or even a ten movies. But it can show and explain scenarios which won't work or causes failure.
"Human history has proven that when we are afraid we tend to kill first and ask questions later." I think thats an accurate statement, which also means that humans always have a reason to be afraid of each other because it is in our nature to be violent. This creates a bit of a chicken or the egg situation that we will never escape from and will probably be our undoing, similar to the lesson of PotA.
The *"bad guy"* is almost always right in these Hollywood movies. Western civilization is still figuring out that the german guy with the funny moustache in my profile picture was right too.
Revelation 2:9 I know thy works, and tribulation, and poverty, (but thou art rich) and I know the blasphemy of them which say they are Jews, and are not, but are the synagogue of Satan.

Bro existence of Neanderthals is still debated and is still considered running theory not a fact, you just can’t base your whole opinion of humans on a theory which has no evidence but theories just theories.
You hit the. Head of the nail with that one Is fear and tribalism is brings the worst out of some human being. They go and lay claim Without ever seeing, or caring if it was occupied like they did the Indians. You would think they would learn from it, but they don't care. Thank you for seeing it because telling history is becoming a problem for some!
Btw, this video would be the best case where the usage of the word “race” has the true sense of meaning! IMO “race” for humans as in different colour skins, is just stupid to say Great video btw!
Was Koba Right?
Maybe
Honestly, I think so
Yes
no blaming a whole group of people for the wrongs that were done to you is wrong.
He was right in not trusting the humans, but he was wrong by using violence as the solution of the problem.
It also proves that apes will become just like humans in their quest for more knowledge, technology and power.
Well Proximus proved that as well.
Everyone was right, that's what makes these movies interesting!
Yesss. Exactly!
Noa was right to scare mae off in the beginning. Porridge Raka thought that the human was primitive.

Koba did have a chance to tell Caesar about the military weapons!!! He chose to tell Caesar he loves humans more than his sons
Ceasar did say they seemed desperate that is why he was helping. As if they did not help he knew the humans would attack.
And they wonder why aliens don’t ride into town on horses
I've heard that joke, that the surest sign that intelligent life exists in the galaxy is that they have avoided contact with our planet.

Both Koba and the Coronel were right. That's what's facunating of these movies. Everyone, including the antagonist were right.
Koba Is like the Magneto of this franchise
Was he right? ..goes and does same things humans do.The old 2 wrongs don't make a right that we seem to have forgotten. Fear porn is easier then hope.
