Too CGI for me.

You preferred the rubber ape masks?

Indeed! Those rubber are masks were pretty impressive, especially back in the day. CGI just feels soulless to me.

I remember reading about Roddy Mcdowell's travails trying to work in his mask- if I recall, he loved playing the part and the affection of his fans, but the mask was a pain.

Rumor has it that he was buried wearing the full makeup/mask.

Always when I hear about the original Planit Apes movie, I always thinking the female astronauts should have encounter the apes and grillers… plus she was luscious also, hana

Escape is the probably the smartest of the old films, with the best-written dialogue.

The opening third of the first film goes on a bit too long. You could cut fifteen minutes from the opening third without losing anything significant. Escape and Conquest both benefit from being shorter and more tightly plotted than the original.
You've seen Guy Standeven in something because the man was in everything.

Conquest and Escape are my second and third favorites, respectively, but part 1 set the bar really high for what the series would be. It's still my favorite and the one I think is the best. It's a stronger science-fiction film. And of course, it has one of the greatest twist endings in Hollywood history.
So many stories, so little time.
