The thing that always bugged me about the Planet of the Apes movies.

[Nostalgiabuff]

Like most sci-fi TV shows and movies the place on the planet where the story is taking place usually represents the whole planet -- which seems unlikely

Like In Star Trek's A Piece of the Action --- Bella is the biggest Boss in the world but he's in the same city as the Second, Third and Fourth Biggest Bosses in the world.

In Star Trek's Miri …. The entire world's most technically advanced offices were in a town the size of Mayberry --- actually it WAS Mayberry

The same goes for Planet of the Apes … Do these Apes REALLY rule the world ? ……… I can't imagine any of them travelling more than 100 miles if that.

Taylor had it right to just leave and look for something else --- For all we know the "Planet of the Apes" was just a large attraction in a human ran zoo.

you are correct. one of the comic companies in the 90's did some cool Apes comics where they explored other parts of the world, like Europe. I think there were gangster apes, if I recall correctly. it was fun stuff

What the Mikey is going on! Silly boy, dontcha know these are documentaries!?!

[Werewolf]

yeah, but planet of the pygmy goats doesn't have the same ring to it

There wouldn't even be planet of the pygmy donkeys and goats because they are super sweet and adorable. Look at this little guy.

Mind you that guy is unusually small. But you can imagine what a couple of generations of selective breeding would do. Super tiny and super cute.

Sure sure, and next thing you’ll be telling us is, that these weren’t really apes, just humans in makeup and costumes.
