[edit] Horse mystery

The film never addresses the existence of horses on an alien world. The space station carrying such animals seems unlikely, especially enough to form a viable breeding pool. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.88.32.194 (talk) 19:49, 10 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Ending of the movie making.

I'm deleting the attempts to explain away the ending of the film-- valiant effort, but it's pure speculation, trying to make sense out of nonsense. Noclevername 01:19, 27 December 2006 (UTC)

You realise this makes Thade the 'Missing Lincoln'.

Yes, I'll leave now. Please stop glaring at me. HalfShadow 02:25, 28 January 2007 (UTC)

      It wasn't nonsense, it has a very specific meaning.  if you read the novel you'd know that.  don't assume that just
because you can't comprehend something, that it has no value.  —Preceding unsigned comment

[edit] A Sequel?

I was hoping a sequel would be made to this film that I beleive was waterlogged by the critics. It is a good film and I believe the ending should be explained with a sequel. Tim Burton please make a sequel! —Preceding unsigned comment added by Yoda317 (talk • contribs) 01:26, 1 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] sequel

yea i agree about the sequel. the only pronlem w/ this was that the apes could jump like 50 feet...real apes cant even do that and once they came down form the trees and became civilized their strength would fade as ours did. our ancestors were stronger than chimps are(chimps are strong people)

[edit] possible error

"Lt. Colonel Alexander, at the beginning of the movie, clearly calls the super intelligent ape "Seamus" (pronounced "shay-mus," or "shame us"). This shows the corruption in ape society from the beginning (the crash of the Oberon) to modern (Thade's era) times. This is also shown with the name 'Calima' (the apes' name for the forbidden zone), later revealed to originate from a badly corroded sign on the Oberon: CAution, LIve aniMAls."

Is this really correct? Wasn't this chimp called CMOS and pronounced CMOS? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 124.168.214.111 (talk) 12:52, 26 May 2008 (UTC)
