I recently worked my way though all of the Planet Of The Apes films in order and I have to say that I think its an incredible set of films. I especially like the latest trilogy as it really seems to flesh out bits that the original series missed or simply didnt have the technology to fully realise.It's worth considering, honestly. Every entry is at the very least watchable for me. The Caesar trilogy is a modern masterpiece, but the original series doesn't deserve to be slept on either. Beneath is insane and Battle doesn't quite have the budget to fully realize its ideas, but Escape and Conquest are both fantastic. The Tim Burton remake is unfortunately pretty dire, but the Rick Baker make-up effects are legitimately great and Tim Roth & Paul Giamatti are clearly having a lot of fun, so even it isn't completely devoid of entertainment value.
Looking forward to watching the new film soon!
