I have never seen the original Planet of the apes film, what is wrong with me?

Then you truly have an amazing cinematic experience awaiting you!




It's not too late! The magic of the original Star Wars is timeless. It could enthrall, enrapture and bewitch you now just as much as if you'd originally seen it in 1977!

Especially if you watch the original version DVDs,not the SE ones.

FYI: Get ready...Disney Pixar is completing a liveaction John Carter of Mars set to be released in 2012. This is Pixars first live action film. They are trying to jump onto the Avatar bandwagon.

I wave waited for this one since I read the series as a boy.

Same here.

Pixar is awesome...it thrashes Dreamworks left and right.

I am now on a mission to watch the apes.

I know that the magic of Star Wars is gone for me now. How tragic.

My generation kid's shows are different for me because of nostalgia.

I can still watch Rankin-Bass' Rudolph and enjoy it like crazy. I'll love it when I'm 80, I imagine.

Back to the question asked in the thread title...My answer would be...A lot. Just kidding. And remember people, POTA was a hit when it was released, hence the sequels. That means MOST of the people who saw it were probably adults. I first saw it on TV and then saw Battle at the Drive-In as a wee'un.

Agreed! Though I did like like How to Train your Dragon, and got quite a few laughs out of Madigascar (probably because I don't have kids and haven't seen it a million times)

As an adult, i've never been attacted to movies geared toward kids.

My generation kid's shows are different for me because of nostalgia.

But I don't get new kids movies and TV (and to be honest, I don't want to even try getting them)

Not even stuff like like Wall-e, or Up? I like a lot of the Pixar animated stuff.

All I can say, is that I envy U

I didn't see Avatar and I didn't want to. I thought it looked dumb. *ducks*

I also have never seen Avatar. I also very much agree that nothing is lost from watching Planet of the Apes as an adult. I have seen it multiple times as a kid and as an adult. From a kid's perspective; I loved the syfy, actions sequences, etc. As an adult; I really enjoyed the ingenious plot that I didn't quite grasp as a kid. To me, it is similar to reading "Alice In Wonderland" as a kid and as an adult. Two completely different stories.

oh my god!!

You sound like "The Old Man" from Pawn Stars!!!

Avatar and Star Wars 1, 2, & 3. I've caught glimpses of Natalie Portman's white clad bottom that looks rather nice, but even that can't convince me to watch it...

Portman was HORRIBLE in those prequels...just HORRIBLE...and EMBARRASSING.

I blame Lucas of course...but she gets some blame too for going along with his insipid direction.

You think I'm exaggerating?

Take a look at this scene...Keira Knightley was also dragged down by Lucas...
