    I don't know if I am excited about the remake or not. I've seen the original so many times that the remake is bound to fall short of my expectations.

    On the other hand, I've heard good things from supposed insiders about the new flick.

    I like the original . . . but maybe the remake won't suck too much.

    Kris Kristofferson was listed as one of the actors appearing in this movie, and I really, really hope he will be playing one of the apes.

    Directed by Tim Burton

    Cast (in credits order)

    Mark Wahlberg - Leo Davidson
    Kris Kristofferson - Karubi
    Charlton Heston - Ape Cameo Appearance

    rest of cast listed alphabetically

    Erick Avari - Tival
    Helena Bonham Carter - Ari
    George Clooney - Ape General (uncredited)
    Emmy Collins - Gorilla/Human Outcast
    Michael Clarke Duncan - Attar
    Luke Eberl
    Paul Giamatti - Limbo
    Spike Jonze
    Lisa Marie
    Evan Dexter Parke
    Tim Roth - General Thade
    Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa - Krull
    Estella Warren - Daena

    Neither a direct re-make of the classic starring Charlton Heston nor a close adaptation of the novel by Pierre Boulle, this version, from a script by William Broyles Jr., is instead a "re-imagination" of the ape-planet concept. The film is also said to be inspired by the entire series of Planet of the Apes, rather than just the first film. There will still be people in ape costumes, which are reported to be similar to the masks from the original, only updated and more articulated to better show off the actors beneath.

    I liked the 90's version "Stop the Planet of The Apes I Wanna Get off." starring Troy McClure

    "I hate Every Ape I see from Chimpan A to Chimpanzee"

    What is going on, are there no longer any writers in the can write orignal scripts and screenplays.

    We are bombarded by Remakes most of which are very crappy and even worse recently the trend seems to be to remake TV shows, A-Team, Charli's Angels, MI, and that one with Samuel L Jackson.

    I just wonder why they haven't made the movie version of The Many Loves of Dobie Gillis. No that's an effort I could get behind..... Oooh. Or even better: The Misadventures of Sheriff Lobo (though it may not be the same without Claude Akins).

    I think Lyle Odeelein of the Columbus Blue Jackets was screwed out of a role, he is a dead wringer for Cornelius! [​IMG]

    You see why Charlton Heston's so pro-gun now. He's gonna be prepared when those ****in' monkeys show up to take over his planet.
