Since when Hollywood needs another reason than money to make w new sequel, prequel, reboot, remake, spinoff and such?

[Torolol]

have anyone ever read about Planet of Apes fanfiction NSFW comics?
i have look at it several years ago,
its inline with Planet of Apes settings where human became the slaves of the apes masters,
contain bestiality between female human & apes.

i cant find it anymore though.

We recently heard that Jason Clarke joined the cast, and today we’ve learned that young actor Kodi Smit-McPhee has landed a role.

This comes from Deadline Hollywood and they make no mention of who Smit-McPhee is playing, but because both Smit-McPhee and Clarke are Australians it wouldn’t surprise us if he was playing Clarke’s son. Smit-McPhee has been in movies and television shows since he was ten, but his big break came playing the son in the 2009 adaptation of Cormac McCarthy’s ‘The Road.’ He’s been working ever since, and played the lead in ‘Let Me In’ and voiced the lead character in ‘Paranorman.’

‘Dawn of the Planet of the Apes’ is being directed by Matt Reeves, and we should be hearing more shortly about the casting process as the film is scheduled to hit theaters on May 23, 2014. It will be the eighth ‘Planet of the Apes’ film, and sixth sequel as the prequel ‘Rise’ made great efforts to be a part of the original franchise.

We saw HOW the apes came to power in "Rise". And, we know the ultimate outcome from the original movies. There aren't anymore plot gaps to fill in for the series. So what could this new movie add to the franchise, story-wise?

What's the point in any sequels then?

Well, if it's as good as Rise, thin I'll enjoy watching it

Sounds like an ape zombie movie.

Things are really ramping up for Matt Reeves' upcoming Dawn of the Planet of the Apes. In addition to the returning Andy Serkis, recent reports name Jason Clarke and Kodi Smit-McPhee as two of the sequel's principal cast. Now, ComingSoon.net has learned exclusively that Gary Oldman will be boarding the project as the leader of a human colony!

Set 15 years after the events of Rise of the Planet of the Apes, Dawn finds most of humanity wiped out and the intelligent apes ruling over the world. Part of the film's focus is said to be on a small group of San Francisco-based scientists that are forming a resistance against the apes and part follows Serkis' Caesar as he, like his namesake, tries to maintain order and power within his new civilization.

A name very well known to cinephiles, Oldman recently starred in John Hillcoat's Lawless and reprised his role as Commissioner Gordon in last summer's The Dark Knight Rises. He can be seen later this year in Robert Luketic's Paranoia and early next year in Jose Padilha's RoboCop.

Featuring a screenplay by Mark Bomback, Dawn of the Planet of the Apes starts filming this spring for a May 23, 2014 release. Peter Chernin, Dylan Clarke, Amanda Silver and Rick Jaffa are producing.

I loved Rise, it was perhaps the only reboot Hollywood has done that actually did justice to the original, and the original Planet Of The Apes is in my Top 5 films of all time, so I do not say that very lightly. I am not sure they can do it again, but hoping they do. That one promo image found on page 1 is pretty kick ass.

Whoever decided to continue this franchise has probably gone bananas.

Someone sat down and worked out how many Humans each ape/primate/monkey would have to kill to achieve what happened in the movie, it was several million humans each I believe.

Can't wait for Night of the Living Dawn of the Return of The Planet of the Apes of the Dead.
