I still like the remake version.
Because it was suppose to be a Sci-Fi and Sci-Fi is better with modern day graphics.
the olden day ones look rather square to me.

I think the original(s)they were two werent' they, or am i mistaking? were the best from my point of view, when you see when the film was made and what they already had in mind back in those days i can only admire.I think that all the modern science fiction movies just realy all look the same, they have the same effects and that bores me.

I still don't get why people just have to do remakes? Can't they ever find anything original to create anymore!

"Planet of the Apes" should be in any list of major movies of the 20th century because it is a poignant commentary on human behavior.Planet of the Apes set the stage for movies like Star Wars to become as popular as they are in today's society. As for the movie itself, it is wonderful. I love the cynical Charlton Heston.

I first saw this movie as a child. I enjoyed it, but obviously couldn't fully grasp the complex social overtones. After seeing it a few more times as I matured, I began to realize how sophisticated the concepts in this film really are. The makeup, sound, and cinematography are top notch (especially for 1968!). The story is riveting, and the ending is legendary.

Come on' , nothing has to beat the classics, you can be very good but you can't do better than the real stuff, exactly like the star wars for instance!
