One gorilla has a terrified human cornered, threatening him with a weedeater.Ī view overhead shows that the apes are closing in on the humans in the cornfield from all directions, surrounding them. It is now revealed that the sticks that were cutting a swath through the corn are being handled by gorillas on foot, searching for humans. The humans continue to run in a panic in every direction. STUPID APES ON HORSEBACK! Adding to Taylor's escalating horror, he looks down and realizes that he has dived into a fresh hot pile of horse manure. Taylor breathlessly watches as the first gorilla's horse comes to a sudden halt and a second trailing gorilla's horse collides into the back of the first, catapulting its rider out of the saddle and continuing to gallop off, dragging the rider, whose one boot is caught in the stirrup. He is shocked beyond belief to discover that they are APES! GORILLAS ON HORSEBACK! In his little hiding place, Taylor gets a good look at the riders of the horses. Taylor runs and dives into a thick growth of corn just as dark, menacing, uniformed figures on horses gallop by. The three astronauts spring to their feet and scatter as the sound of the horses' hooves draws even closer. There's a sudden look of pained surprise on Landon's face and tears start to well up in his eyes. Taylor pulls him down, knocks the melon out of his hand, and slaps him on the back of the head. Landon continues to stand, looking around, still casually munching on a melon, oblivious to what is going on around him. Taylor and Dodge hit the ground immediately as dead and wounded humans fall all around them. Suddenly, the unmistakable sound of gunshots is heard. Taylor, Landon, and Dodge see the sticks and again turn and follow the pack of humans through the cornfield just as the sound of horses hooves is heard. It is the similar effect of a bumbling Jerry Lewis in a choreographed dance routine. The high-pitched whine of a leaf blower can also be heard as the group of humans do an about-face and run the opposite way, running headlong right into the astronauts that were following right behind them. The sound of the approaching sticks makes a whistling noise as they slice through the air into the corn. The humans continue to run through the cornfield until they stop abruptly to the sight of long, tall, sticks whacking and slicing, coming toward them through the cornfield. The three stunned astronauts stare at the action for a moment and then instinctively scramble to follow the fleeing mob into a tall cornfield. It's more than enough annoyance to make you a bit edgy when.Īfter the strange bugle-like sound echoed through the lush valley, the group of wild humans drop their melons and start running away from the direction of the sound. Then, to make things worse, you barely get a few bites of a honeydew melon when all hell breaks loose. What a day! You finally get a break and find an oasis to skinny dip in after you've walked for days and days across a barren wasteland, then you get your clothes stolen by some dirty stinkin' punks in caveman clothes. It is currently unknown if Serkis will return in any capacity for Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes.Well, it seems like happy times are over in the little Eden that our three adventurers had just discovered. Rise of the Planet of the Apes and its sequels, Dawn of the Planet of the Apes (2014) and War for the Planet of the Apes (2017), were all Oscar-nominated for Best Visual Effects. In 2001, Tim Burton helmed a remake starring Mark Wahlberg, but it was 2011's Rise of the Planet of the Apes that successfully rebooted the series, in part due to Andy Serkis and his revolutionary motion capture performance work as the chimpanzee, Caesar. The orignal movie earned nominations for Best Costume Design and Best Original Score at the 41st Oscars, and won an honorary Oscar for makeup artist John Chambers. The Planet of the Apes franchise began with the 1968 film of the same name, starring Charlton Heston, which spawned four sequels, a live-action TV spinoff, and an animated series. "With Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes, we are privileged to continue the series' tradition of imaginative, thought-provoking cinema, and can't wait to share Wes' extraordinary vision for this new chapter with audiences in 2024." " Planet of the Apes is one of the most iconic and storied science fiction franchises in film history, as well as being an indelible part of our studio's legacy," 20th Century Studios president Steve Asbell said upon the announcement.
